I am missing something which is most likely very easy to solve.  I want to show an exterior horizontal wood (hardiboard) siding in my rendering.  I have the materials set up and wall created with wood, but can't figure out how to show any lap siding in the rendering.  Am I overlooking a material that has this built in, or do I have to create a special horizontal scoring to show the affect.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

thanks,

You have to use the material you want.  For lap siding you need a material that uses a bump to achieve the 3D effect of the lap siding.  I do not believ there is a stock lap siding in the library.  You can look at the shingled materials tgo see how the seperate bump file is used.  You will have to get a lap siding jpeg and you can make a bump file form that.  There are discussions of this process elsewhere.

The roofing tip helps a lot.  I will create the jpeg in a white or grey, and then apply a color to in revit for the accents.  Hope this works.  Thanks a bunch.
