Hi,
The lowest floor in the model I am currently doing is below ground at the front of the building and above ground at the back (as the terrain has a slope). I currently have this level below z=0 in the model. Will the model assume the whole floor is below ground? and how do I deal with this correctly? do I have to set the terrain in the model?

Re: Dealing with terrain
Your best bet is to model the surrounding ground as another building and or local shade.
You can then set up the constructions and materials. Essentially building a fake mountain above the ground plane then building your building into the fake mountain.
I would start my building first on the ground plane with the basement under the ground then I would move my building up about 10m or so then build the mountain to put your building into.
This gives you better control of the results I find.
Good luck
