Revit Updates!

Revit 2015 Update Release 13 and Revit 2016 R2 Update 3 have both been released.

User can get the R2 version of UR 13 and Update 3 either from the Autodesk Desktop App, or by going to manage.autodesk.com and searching the downloads under the BDS or Revit products.

We should be strongly suggesting you install these updates as they address potential data fidelity issues in Collaboration for Revit among other things.

Downloading R2 for 2016...

Recently some users are reporting that the Release 2 (R2) installer for Revit 2016 (included in the Building Design Suites) are not in the Product Updates section of Manage.Autodesk.com, but the Revit Architecture (and Structure and MEP) one is.

 

It also does not show up if you filter for it under the Building Design Suite in Products and Services.

The fix for this issue is to search for it by going through the following process:

• Once logged into Autodesk Account, search for the Design Suite which you have a subscription contract. ie: Building Design Suite Premium
• Select the Downloads link for the desired Design Suite.

 

 

 

 

• Select Updates & Add-ons tab.
• Specify 2016 Release 2 within the search box.

 

 

• Select Browser download to install.

Revit 2015 UR5 Build Numbers

I updated the previous post Revit 2015 - Update Release 5 to include the specific download links for both Revit 2015 and Revit 2015 R2 users.  There is a separate installer for each version of Revit 2015.

Also, for reference, I wanted to list the build numbers Revit reports after installing the noted update:

Revit 2015 - UR4 - 20140903_1530
Revit 2015 - UR5 - 20141119_1515

Revit 2015 R2 - 20140905_0730
Revit 2015 R2 - UR5 - 20141119_0715

What is the difference between Revit 2015 R2, and Revit 2015 UR2?

As mentioned previously the Revit Sundial Release preview has ended and Autodesk Revit 2015 R2 is now available for Autodesk Maintenance and Desktop Subscription customers. Click the following link for information on 39 Architectural, Structural, MEP, and multi-disciplinary enhancements made in R2:
New in Revit 2015 R2

If you haven’t looked at the updates released for Revit (or Sundial), there could be some confusion between Revit 2015 R2 (Build: 20140905_0730), and Revit 2015 Update Release 2 (UR2) (Build: 20140323_1530). 

If you look on the Revit download page, you should see that the latest 2015 update available is Update Release 4 (released 2014-09-21). 

If you look on the Subscription Center, you will find Autodesk Revit 2015 R2 (released 2014-09-17). 

R2 includes all of the updates included in Update Release 4 (and after installing will show Update Release 4 in the About Revit dialog), but also has added functionality available only to Autodesk Maintenance and Desktop Subscription customers.  

Note: You cannot install both UR4 and R2. Additionally, if you inadvertently install UR4, and later realize that you want to load R2, you will need to uninstall Revit, reinstall, and then install R2.

Additional Note: As mentioned in the installation readme for UR4 (and R2) the update requires either the initial release of Autodesk Revit 2015 (build: 20140223_1515) or Autodesk Revit 2015 Update Release 3 (build: 20140606_1530). If UR1 or UR2 is installed, you will need to install UR3 prior to installing R2 or UR4.
