First time posting here, but I have a modeling problem I need solved and not sure the best way to go about it.
Trying to create a new cmu wall type with a specific wall pattern. We are using the angelus hi-lite mark I cmu block. It has a triangular extrusion on one face.
Now is this possible to create a wall type, so I can draw a wall like any other but with this type of cmu block?

Hi Rivera89,
Unless you will model the whole building to US LOD400, which is quiet extreme I don't think that you have to consider modelling every independent block.
But what you can do is to give it the thickness of an equivalent CMU with a specific line type on on of the wall sides to accommodate those triangular faces, and a texture that have this particular effect on rendering.

A good friend of mine have once told me that I´m so brute that I´m capable of creating a GDL script capable of creating GDLs.

Also, if you intend to create some details (no the whole building)
You can model your CMU model with Morph tool
