I have a two story house where most of the second floor walls are slanted because of the roof angles. Here is an aerial view.

Should I just use the various wall styles (i.e., gable/saltbox) on my first floor walls to get my second floor walls? I imagine if I do, I will have lots of work adding elements to my second floor, because there really won't be a second floor.

Hi there,

Not sure if I understand.

Can you clarify?

Here is the back of my house. I can make a second floor wall and then add a roof over it.

Here is the garage. The room over the garage is within the roof gable, not completely under the roof like in the back.

If I make the first floor garage wall a gable wall, it will have the correct shape, but I don't think that is what I want to do.

Hi there,

It depends of the project, the elevations and the interior settings. The images don't show all the settings.

As I stated in my previous answer, each level needs its own floor, so you can set the correct elevations. Otherwise, you will have problems with the components.

Hope this helps.
