Hi all

I'm so very new to Vue - but have been enjoying the tutorials here immensely!(Was that spelled right...hm...never mind) My problem is not anymore how to make a house/building. But I CAN'T but a roof on it. I've tried using planes - but with nooooo succes at all. If it goes right it look strange.....if it goes bad it looks WEIRD!!!
Can any of you Vue-Gods help me? Please!

Can you post examples of what you have been trying? I generally use cubes, flattened out, and then play with material mapping.

If you just close up on the area of the roof that would be good.

You mean the sides at right and left? Just add pyramides you have completely flattened. You may play a little with the shape of the roof and the pyramids.
