You can manipulate roof slopes while keeping mesh faces flat, which is essential for accurate architectural sketching.

It typically installs as a floating toolbar and a modifier within the 3ds Max interface.

Batzal Roof Designer is a dedicated plugin designed to streamline the creation of 3D roofs. In the context of 3ds Max 2020, it serves as a powerful "legacy" tool that bridges the gap between simple geometric shapes and production-ready architectural assets. It allows users to model, texture, and cover roofs with mesh tiles in seconds, keeping the entire structure parametric so changes to the underlying floor plan can be updated with just a few clicks.

The tool can generate ridge rolls and edge designs (like flat lot styles) that automatically adjust to the roof's height, width, and angle.

Getting the Batzal Roof Designer to work with the 2020 version of 3ds Max requires specific steps, as the plugin hasn't received official updates for the newest versions of Max (2021 and beyond).
