How to Create Multiple Houses in a Project – Live Home 3D for Mac Tutorials



There are times when you need to add several houses on the background to simulate neighbourhood, or create a realistic background view.

Creating each and every house from scratch with Live Home 3D will take considerable time and overload the scene, which will slow down the app performance.

The best way to avoid this is by leaving the main house as is and adding other houses as individual 3D objects.

House models can be downloaded from Trimble 3D Warehouse or other storages. You may also import your own objects or, even create new ones using house models in Live Home 3D.

Note that by default Live Home 3D may import the models as a group of objects. Therefore, resize of an imported model is possible only after implementing the Merge command through the Object Properties tab.

Merge is also necessary to make the item available for editing in Type & Representation dialog.

Now, that you imported all the necessary models, simply arrange them in the 2D or 3D view and set all necessary cameras to record walkthrough videos or create snapshots.
