Revit: 2022 Dynamo: 2.10.1 Orchid: 212

The issue: I tried to install orchid package 212 manually and in Dynamo software, but the nodes still not showing in Dynamo. I unzipped the folder in the following path, and "unlocked" was also off once unzipping the files. C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\2.10\packages\orchid

When I open dynamo, this errors pops up. error orchid package

That is correct, Orchid 2.12 is for Dynamo 2.12 and not Dynamo 2.10. However, it might work under Dynamo 2.10, I simply can't remember the changes between 2.10 and 2.12. So I will recommend that you update your Revit and Dynamo to the latest version and use 2.12 version.

There are so many things that have changed over the last couple of years, and it would be terrible to maintain all the releases that have been available at any point. Therefore, I only maintain Orchid for the latest release of the major builds, namely for Revit 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and now 2025, and the comparative Dynamo 2.6, 2.12, 2.16, 2.19 and 3.0

Thank you for your comment. It is mentioned up to date in my Dynamo dialog box. How can I update my dynamo 2.10 to 2.12 in Revit 2022. My Revit is also updated.

erfajo commented 8 months ago

The current state is that you need to update to Revit 2022.1.5. I can't remember when Dynamo moved from 2.10 to 2.12, but somewhere along the releases, it did. Update to the latest release of Revit and you will get the updated Dynamo for Revit as well.

I updated my Revit, and dynamo to 2.12. Then install the package through dynamo. Got these two errors. How can I solve this? image

Please check your paths where you load from in settings. I can see that the package is loaded, but still you are getting errors. I can exclude that I could have some error since I just recently uploaded the first version that also support Revit 2025. I will test if something could be related to that. When Revit 2025 will be released there are going to be quite some changes this time.

I can't find any errors in any of my versions of Orchid, However, I can see now that you are not using the "proper" IFC exporter in Revit. You probably use the built-in version of the IFC exporter, but you should consider the exporter made by the Revit-IFC team at Autodesk. https://github.com/Autodesk/revit-ifc/releases
