BIM -The Revit Clinic

The following Hotfix has just been released for Autodesk Revit 2012 x64 products:

Hotfix – Autodesk Revit 2012 – Improves stability when working with large datasets (64-bit only)

The Hotfix is meant to address crashing issues when working with large file sets. Some common symptoms of the issue include:

• Typically, journal files will have the following exception code near the end: ExceptionCode=0xe0434352
• Journals will show plenty of available RAM at the time of the crash.
• Crashes will commonly be reported when users are doing things like activating a Drafting View, clicking on the Application Menu, or drawing Detail Lines.

This Hotfix applies to 64 bit systems only, and Web Update 2 must be installed first - so verify that the build number of Revit 2012 is 20110916_2132 before you apply it.
