I am having the same problem here. I am trying to model the ridge tile and hip tile on roof and realise that the Host Sweep on Roof Facsia do not allow you pick on the ridge or hip anymore in Revit 2009. Any reason why they take out the function from Revit 2009? Is anyone out there able to give a work around? Thanks.

You cannot use the Host Sweep Roof Fascia in 2009 to do anything other than the 'fascia' edge of a roof. Before 2009 you could pick any edge of the roof including ridges, hips and valleys. That capability is simply gone for 2009. The best way to acomplish modeling a ridge tile is to create a generic line based family. Then sketch or nest the profile family within that line based family. Then you can place your ridge and rake tiles anyware on the roof. Also see images attached on the resulting line based tile family you can build yourself.

Autodesk release up-to-date patch pack for REVIT 2009 Architectures Suite and that solve the problem of inserting ridge tiles in the same manner as it worked in the previous REVIT versions i.e. you use the roof fascia tool and pick the ridge line. NIRIM

Thanks, Nirim, I just updated my RAC to Build 20080602_1900 and you are correct. It's not a Hotfix or Service Pack / Patch it's just in the latest build. The Host Sweep > Roof Fascia now works on roof ridges again. Yeah ! So all you need is the clay tile profile and you're off and running. Thanks for the tip.

dgcad I am not sure about what exactly you install however although the ridge is no longer a problem, the render is i.e. the render material library vanished from the software. Is it you from the dgcad video clips? If the answer is yes then I use the opportunity to thanks you, I would say they are grate. nirim

Hello nirim and yes I am dgcad from www.dgcad.com . I just downloaded and reinstalled RAC 2009 build 20080602_1900. I read that it was recommended to reinstall all the content and rendering materials library due to the improvements. So at the beginning of the install I clicked the configuration button to make sure I dd reinstall those items. Becasue I already had revit installed it may 'deselected those items' by default. I just did my first rendering with the new build and it looks really good. See image attached. Perhaps you should reinstall and check the configuration options. The render wasn't any faster but the quality looks better. I only used my laptop. A Toshiba Intel Pentium 1.86 GHz 1 MB RAM. Video > NVIDIA GeForce Go 6600
