We are proud to announce that Autodesk created ITM based content will be distributed with the 2016 releases without ownership locks. The content is offered as sample data and therefore will be provided without the ownership lock so that it can be copied and modified. The content available at http://www.building3dcontent.com/ will be updated at a later date.
Please join us in our next webcast to hear more about updates to content and other exciting announcements for the upcoming release. You can register for the webcast at https://us.gep.autodesk-services.com/registration/32796
Thank you all for your feedback and please keep posting!
Thanx Brett.
Can't help but feel that this is a double edged sword however. This will significantly help folks like outselves, but smaller or newer customers will now have the power to more easily corrupt their own systems.
Would really like to see a wholesale change in the approach to may content less "fragile" to a functional database configuration setup. Here's what I'd like to see...
Overhaul connectivity.... Connectivity currently controls 3 things...
Mixing these three things together makes the setup way overly complicated.
Hi Brett,
Will this Webcast be available as a download following the event?
As I am in a different time zone, the live event is between 5 and 6am for me

100% true.....
I see why AD was looking to hire CADmep support personal...
Was just going to report that the content on www.building3dcontent.com (imperial anyway) has been updated to be unlocked.
Noticed as of this moment, the URL is throwing a 404 Error "requested resource is not found".
Glad I downloaded it when I did.
Thank you Darren, we are working on it.
Thanx Brett.
BTW, looked at the unlocked content. We prior did an indepth analysis on buy vs build vs use Adsk content and chose to build our own.
Now that the Adsk content is unlocked, it looks like this will significantly improve our ability to standardize our content across locations in a timely manner. A few simply tweaks to align Autodesk's content to some of our connectivity, naming and material standards and we'd done.
All in all, I think this was a step in the right direction. Smaller and new customers may struggle with the ability to now corrupt their content if not done properly but honestly, that's another issue that can be addressed in future product versions if focus is on connectivity and content creation.
That is exactly what we were hoping to hear. Thank you very much for saying it.
