Revit Architecture and MEP new builds posted - (20080602_1900)

As noted in the previous post for Revit Structure the new builds, termed WU-1 (Web Update), have been posted at Autodesk's site, build number 20080602_1900.

Revit Architecture
Revit MEP

There is only one download for Revit MEP as it is only sold as a "suite" but there are two downloads for Revit Architecture, standalone and "suite". The links take you to the "choose your language" page.

This is Architecture enhancements in the web update list at Autodesk.

Improves performance when modifying customer visibility settings for linked files, when many volumes exist that are bound by the linked file.
Improves the plotting consistency of certain components that are placed over hatched elements in coordination and architectural discipline views.
Rooms will now export Revit internal parameters for IFC.
When rendering, the progress bar reports correct percent complete.
“Intensity” on Decal Types dialog was changed to “Brightness” to match Help documentation.
Spot elevation with Display Elevation = Top & Bottom Elevation will now report the correct bottom elevation for sloped elements.
In plan view with medium or fine detail level, spot elevations now report the correct top or bottom elevation of a beam that is joined to a column.
Improves stability when changing the visibility of a link in a view template.
“Downlight – Spot” light family no longer has duplicate Tilt Angle parameter.
Lights that were in a light group that was deleted are no longer controlled by the deleted light group; instead they are controlled by the Ungrouped Lights status.
Improves the ability to enter custom DPI value in the Render dialog.
Improves stability when exporting to CAD formats.
Improves stability when closing SteeringWheels.
Improves stability when adding elements to a group.
Families that contain arrayed voids will now function properly in the project.
Improves stability for users with non-English operating systems when using the Open/Save dialog.
Notes created in Revit for a DWF markup object will now propagate to the DWF after selecting publish.
Enabling daylight portals will now affect the rendered appearance.
Spotting on interior renderings with many internal light sources no longer occurs.
Improves appearance of decals using cut-outs.
Corrects “Unable to Start” error when starting the application.
Model lines now remain in the correct design option when split.
Structural columns will now have a higher priority when joined to non-bearing and shear walls.
For sweeps on an arc wall, you now have the option to change sweep returns.
Restores some structural components in SouthAsiaLibrary content bundle.


This is the MEP list:

Improves performance when modifying customer visibility settings for linked files, when many volumes exist that are bound by the linked file.

Wires are no longer trimmed according to the extents of the light source geometry.
Light fixture preview images do not include the light source geometry.
Improves the plotting consistency of certain components that are placed over hatched elements in coordination and architectural discipline views.
