Results: creates some 3D lines so you can see where your grids are in 3D. Results: A good stop-gap until more tools are added to the Text tool.Īutodesk Extensions: Excel Based model Generation Results: This is very useful for creating static details. There is a tool for tagging but I'm not sure what the rest of the tools do yet. Results: Seems like this might be a diagnostic tool as well. Useful for diagnostics.Įase of use: easy, but not sure what it's for. Results: I think this has some good uses but I'm not sure what yet. Results: This is what happens when someone actually reads the Wish Lists.Īvailable on the Autodesk Subscription Website Results: This is a nice utility that I would consider a necessary stop-gap. This has great potential but needs to be more accessible. Results: For the money the results can be awesome, as long as there is some setup and attention to standards.

"VE-Ware is our FREE building energy usage and carbon dioxide emission assessment software that can make a real difference to the green credentials of a building, as well as benchmark it against the US Architecture 2030 Challenge."Įase of use: Knowing how to set up the model before running the calcs is essential. Please let me know of any good ones that I have missed as I will keep updating this. So, let's review some available plugins for Revit Architecture. Autodesk has taken note and even bought up some of the better programs to integrate with the core software. For this good reason the API has enabled people to create some excellent solutions. That being said, even Autodesk can't keep up with the developing demands of this hugely popular software. Revit's initial philosophy was to do everything well out-of-the-box.
This is compounded by each new release and update. Now add on top of that the individual plugins that each user may want.
CAD/BIM Mangers have an enormous task of installing the latest versions and patches of the core software. By this I mean that they do something that Revit out-of-the-box can't do (or do well) at this point in time. From my perspective plugins are usually best as a stop-gap solution. It seems that in this last year there have been many plugins, add-ons, extensions etc created for Revit.
