        heyy I got it.. Just a note for other newbies. In Homeseer folder HTML there is an includes folder. Which I moved my .inc files. I had to move the include folder with files from ultaview zip to homeseer...... Woohooo

          You should have two directories:
          c:\program files\homeseer\html\includes
          this has the majority of HS includes files

          c:\program files\homeseer\html\include
          which has Ultra's include files.

          very common mistake due to the similarity

                You can purchase commercial home design software like 3D home architect by Broderbund or Architect18 from Punch. that's the best way. This will give you 3D floorplan capability.

                You can draw it in Powerpoint or Visio too. This will give you lines to represent rooms.


                Or in Photoshop which requires more talent.

                  if your house is newer and the model still built by the builder you can grab free plans off the builder's website, I took a copy and did some color changes , updates etc to it and easily put it in a MainLobby scene. sometimes the local courthouse even has floor plan documents for homes that you can copy.

                    You could try to make your own floor plans and download them as a .gif from this address
                    http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/pac_ctnt_wi..._23822,00.html

                    It's called room planner on hgtv. It's free, and I thought it worked pretty well.

                      I'm trying to track down my home's floor plan. I did a search on Google and found a few more places to check:
                      Realtors in the area
                      Building Inspectors in the area


                      I want to avoid taking measurements of ever room of the house, if at all possible. Does everyone have their floor plans to scale?
