I must be missing something because I am not able to open the RIF file in revit. Do I need some type of import option turned on in revit?

I think it's part of the plugin that installs the buttons to import and export.
We installed the plugin right after we installed Revit so I'm not entirely sure if it comes standard or not. O_o

RIF import/export is a add-in for Revit. In beta mode at the moment on Autodesk Labs. Try & test it.

I have the export button but not the import. Anyone have any ideas on how/where to get it? Is this part of SysQue?
Any help. Thanks

Have you done it?
We will... Someday.
Does it remember mapping after doing it a few times? There are just so many items to map. :(

Not extensively.. tested on first release, but has since expired. We haven't had a chance to load into 2014 yet.

2014 add-in will expire March this year. So I guess we have a rocket up our ...

Yes it does remember the mapped file, hence the map file it is asking you to load.

Has anybody heard anything new on this front?  Can we get CADmep objects into Revit without going through Export to IFC?  Even if it means going through another Fabrication software?

Any news would be appreciated.  Thanks.
