Revizto 2.0: The Club Revit Review

It fascinating to me how things can organically connect throughout my blog.  For example, my tutorial about adding depth to elevations flowed beautifully into my announcement of BIM After Dark (without me even know about what BIM After Dark would be when creating it).  Additionally, my "Revizto for Revit: The Complete Guide" post galvanized the interest you, my readers, had in real-time visualization.... leading to the creation of a bonus eBook within the BIM After Dark series.

Well, in another ubiquitous connection, after reviewing BIM After Dark, Michael Anonuevo published an excellent Review of Revizto 2.0!  

Revizto for Revit: THE COMPLETE GUIDE

Those of you who have followed this blog will know my never ending interest in the multitudes of presentation techniques and Revit (or BIM in general).  This infatuation is what lead me to BIM After Dark.  This infatuation has also lead me to trying every piece of software I can get my hands on related to utilizing building information models for presentation types of media (from Showcase, to CryEngine, to 3DS Max, etc…).

I stumbled upon Revizto while researching video game engines and Revit.  Then, I had a project in the office that needed a “rendered walkthrough” in less than 24 hours.  I thought to myself, “this will be a perfect time to test out Revizto”.  I downloaded the 30-day free trial and installed the software.  If there is one major point I want you to take away from this review it’s that Revizto is EASY.  The way Revizto communicates with Revit is the way ALL visualization tools should communicate with Revit…. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get on with the review.
