Revit 2025 release

[dorer69044]

Does anyone know when Revit 2025 will be released?
The exact date

Thanks 🙂

The exact date, I believe, is protected by NDA, but if nothing changed it should be very soon.

[ricaun]

My bet was on March 30, 2024. Didn't happen, probably this week going to be released.

My guess will be 4th April 2024 🤓

Available to me in my account 🙂

[ricaun]

Yes, it is available in my account as well, I suppose Autodesk messed up with the download link.

Does anyone know if the SDK has been released yet? I'd curious what's new in the API this year. 

[ricaun]

I guess have been officially released!

Ahahahaha

P.S: Triple walls are of course very important and necessary (No)
but how about adding a calculation of the cable trajectory, taking into account... the architecture of the building?
After 18 years of development?

[MarryTookMyCoffe]

after watching it the only thing that they did is triple walls.
I doubt that they fix problems and bugs in gbxml
ifc is probably poor as it was
the carbon analysis  is basically multiply two data and if I now Revit developers that mean that every thing we have to provide.
I can't wait what kind of mess they did in API and how much bugs they didn't fix

I did some tests in the API:

• ElementId.IntegerValue still exists in Revit API 2025. (Revit API 2025 - Obsolete)
• Create and RegisterContextMenu to add a custom ContextMenu when right-clicking in a View. (Revit API 2025 - RegisterContextMenu)
• Revit 2025 API runs in .NET Core 8.0 (Revit API is moving to .NET Core 7.0)

The most interesting is the RegisterContextMenu which is new in this version.

Update to .NET Core gonna be a pain in some old projects.

@ricaun .Net 8 will be a problem for those who initially did not use the SDK style (and such are the majority), in general developers can easily support all versions of .NET and Revit API in one solution. I guess move to the new version will be a great practice and developmental boost for a lot of people

[ankofl]

Please @ricaun , do you have the opportunity to check if the transaction commit rate (.Commit()) has increased when switching the Revit API to Net.8 ?

By default, nobody uses SDK style. I only started using it because you shared something a long time ago, and I was searching and developing a way to automate my workflow, the SDK style made the csproj easier to work and nuke fit like a glove.

What do you mean? If Commit is faster?

If you have some sample code I could create some tests.

[nice3point]

I guess the speed of comites will not change as Revit core is written in C/C++. Dotnet is used for UI (Ribbon, panels). The home page and project browser uses html+Js

[ankofl]

I asked this question because it seems strange to me that changing multiple text parameters in multiple families or any similar SIMPLE operations takes literally a 5-10 seconds. I thought that when switching to Net.8, they optimized some of the "hard" points in transaction commit. Unfortunately, I don't have access to Revit 2025 yet, so I wanted to ask @ricaun if he noticed a significant increase in transaction commit speed in any of the fragments of his code available to him, between the previous version of Revit and Revit2025
Thanks for the answers!

[MarryTookMyCoffe]

this sound like interesting thing to try, when I will start moving to a 2025 I will try to make test for this for my last 4 versions I have.

Thanks for sharing the information and video.
Revit finally released and available for download?

Yes, yesterday Autodesk shared a YouTube video about the Revit 2025. https://youtu.be/7wD3aMUXquc?si=uXOcIqEgbMCMyrsK
