Fatal Error - 3D view & other views

Anonymous — Mon, 25 Jul 2016 18:40:36 GMT

Hello,

I have a file here that gives me a fatal error when activating certain views on sheets, not all, and accessing any kind of 3D view. I've audited & purged the file, multiple times and still no luck. I've also deactivated my graphic acceleration in revit, thinking maybe that was the issue... but still nothing. We're working on a deadline for Wednesday so if anyone can offer any help, it would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Kayla

When I open the file in Revit 2017 he comes up with an error

After deleting the instance (only option) I have no problem open any of the 3DViews

Hi Louis,

Thank you for the response! I had tried this earlier today and came to the same conclusions and I've been working in 2017 since. The only issue I'm running into now, is editing materials. As soon as I try to open the materials library, it gives me a fatal error. Any thoughts?

Thanks again,

Kayla

Had a look. Opened it in 2017. No problems with material editor. Edited materials, applied materials to object without errors.

So seems not project related. Try to do updates (windows, graphics card and Revit). See what happens if you open project on another computer.
