      I have a white line that is appearing around the roofline (see attached images). These lines are currently hidden. Under System Preferences < OpenGL Settings I am using maximum texturte size, fast feedback.

      Could it be a problem with my computer itself? I am running Windows 7 with a Pentium Dual Core E2180 (2.00 GHz, 2.00 GB RAM) and my graphics cards is a NVDIA GeForce 8500 GT.

      Thanks-

        You have a very thin roof plane and you are seeing a "ghost" of the wall below. Add some thickness to the roof, which will make the white line go away and also make the roof appear more realistic. The exposed edge of a roof is typically from 6" to 8" thick.

        "Out of clutter find simplicity,
        from discord find harmony,
        In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity"

          You could also Hide those edges if adding thickness to the roof is not an option.

          Hi

            The problem with simply hiding them is that the connecting face can also bleed through.

            nr, under the OpenGL settings, is there any better antialias setting? Not as if any could do wonders with this (from a distance, they would bleed through even with a roof thickness) just asking...

            Gai...
