No dislikes. Why is that you wonder? Because this man is single-handedly carrying thousands of people through school and the early years of their work with his content. My hero.

About 11:05 >> you changed the Picture, loading tadao ando's one, but without previously duplicating the Appearance. This means, it also change the picture on the other concrete material with same appearance. Make sure to duplicate every time ! Otherwise, nice video, thx, i've learned some :)

[dhillman]

Your original concrete material also changed when you duplicated it and modified it for thr tadao ando concrete. If you can, you should explain how to duplicate materials and not having the original change while changing the new ones.

[fasanyaolajide]

I am indeed thankful to you sir, this video is really helpful

[mahjund]

I think there is a small mistake that u changed the concrete lightweight as well, u have to duplicate the material from appearance tab as well .

[sobhanmor]

You are the best.thanks for everything.

[gabrielvicol]

[veronikak]

could you tell how to make corrugated striped glass in materials? thanks, your explanations are very clear

[iyanuoluwajulius]

I have not been able to access materials in my revit 2024, only the ones that come with an element or a different version of the element with different materials. How can I rectify this? When I try to open the materials option like as shown in the beginning of the video nothing comes up.

You're the go to Channel on YouTube for me and wot made me watch ur channel even more is that u wud show glimpse of schools or ur personal projects, so that made me a believer that you're really good at Revit but to me ur channel sometimes focus on a certain group of Revit users that some of ur tutorials are hard for me and some of my friends to follow so Wot am asking of u, is if u can create a well explain step by step complex building project in Revit I know you do short tutorials and it's gonna take alot of time but you can even upload it in parts and it wud help a whole lot with my School projects thanks a million in advance it wud b much appreciated
