Somehow I have fixed the weird issue. I am now trying to get random bedrooms inside any given shape. I am using touches() so if a wall touches a window then window is replaced by wall. Not sure how to randomly generate partitions however. I have this that will create 4 divisions along the y axis but for large or small this won't work: split(y) { '0.25: RoomsFloor | 0.2: InnerWall }* I need a way of finding the area or length and then doing an appropriate split condition.

I am also trying to do the same thing. Can you point me to the features in ArcGIS that could help me do this?

How would I create rooms within a house? I want to randomly split up the house into several rooms and also the interior walls need different texturing. There is the outside: And the inside shares the same texture and no ceiling! I tried making a split but cannot extrude an edge upwards to make partitions: FloorBase --> setupProjection(0, scope.xy, scope.sx/5, scope.sy/5) set(material.normalmap, wall_norm) projectUV(0) texture(floor_tex) split(x) { 5: Rooms }* Rooms --> color("#00ff00") comp(e) { 0: Room } extrude(1) Room Room --> color("#ff0000") I have tried to extrude and scale but get these weird issues:

Ok I think I maybe got it I have to use comp(e) for edge.

My house has a gabled roof and I want to add guttering and wooden edging. I see I can do comp to select but I don't see an option to select between two faces? I have shown below in the picture the red lines are where I want to attach the models. I read this part: Help - But using comp with ridge doesn't seem to work.

That worked thanks!

How can I insert my door object into the empty space made by the frame? I cannot see how I would split this up.

CityEngine has 6 materials and UE4 has a physical based shader available which I want CityEngine to take advantage of. Playing around with some materials to see what is available in CityEngine. I have a normal map but it seems when I apply the texture the normal gets hidden.

Interesting. I need some styles for buildings from several regions around the world. I have seen the inbuilt ones but wondered if there were any others? The topic I am researching is looking at autonomous re-creation of buildings from various data sources such as satellite data. I would like to know more about your new methods.

Mainly generic buildings of various cultures.

I want some rule packages created but I have not the skill to build them how I want. Where is a good place to look or commission someone to create?

I fixed this error by starting again and this time added absolute paths instead of relative when pointing to rule files. That fixed it!

When I am run the prt4cmd tool I get the error: OBJEncoder::encode failed, exception caught 'unknown rule'. Now I have this rule file in the same directory and its not picking up for some reason. It something to do with this part of the call: ruleFile:string=bin/candler.01.cgb

Ok the fix is to import the rule and "share as" and the rule is updated. Now the problem is the error OBJEncoder::encode failed, exception caught 'unknown rule'.

I am using the sample prt4cmd from the SDK and getting this error. I am using the sample data (candler.rpk + candler.obj) provided.It is complaining that I need to recompile the CGB. How can I do this? This is the error message: C:\esri-cityengine-sdk-master\examples\prt4cmd\install\bin>prt4cmd -s 27000@Chris-Dev -f CityEngAdv -l 3 -g C:/esri-city engine-sdk-master/examples/prt4cmd/install/bin/data/candler_lot.obj -p C:/esri-cityengine-sdk-master/examples/prt4cmd/in stall/bin/data/candler.rpk -a ruleFile:string=bin/candler.01.cgb -a startRule:string=Default\$Lot -e com.esri.prt.codecs .OBJEncoder -z baseName:string=theCandler [2016-Feb-22 11:14:48.494413] [warning] CGB file contains warning 'Potentially problematic CGAC version 1.2 : recompilin g with current CGA Compiler (1.5) is recommended.'
