Archvision has a great reputation for providing quality Entourage RPC content and extensions to Revit, historically to assist you in creating more impressive presentation images and renderings. More recently, they have branched out to focus more on being a BIM content leader, including the development and release of their DETAIL WAREHOUSE app and content. This has been improved with recent updates, including the provision of DWG versions of this detail library.
A couple of months ago, Archvision partnered with AXYZ Design to now provide more high quality 3D people as part of the RPCs available to Archvision users (but purchased under a separate license). The official name of this product is “AXYZ Design 3D Human Characters Collections”.
For more information on the AXYZ partnership, DETAIL WAREHOUSE App Store release, and DWG availability, please see links, images and embedded press releases below.

Key feature:
Do you have a problem with your SSD getting maxed out by a bloated TEMP directory (%temp%) ? In Revit, you might have an issue with revittemp_ files, particularly if you are using massive federated models with lots of Revit links…
Maybe this is an ‘edge case’, but I’ve tweeted about this issue a couple of times:
Three big Revit instances. The revittemp files in %temp% folder cause disk space problems, even with 512gb SSD. pic.twitter.com/A0dpL6ca0u— Luke Johnson (@lukeyjohnson) January 20, 2016
To stop this problem from affecting your main, system SSD hard drive disk space, you can move your Windows Temp directory. Here’s how:
Go to This PC, Properties:
Go to Advanced system settings:
Go to Advanced tab, Environment Variables:
Then for TEMP and TMP, edit the path:
And input a location on a larger, secondary hard drive:
Here are the same screenshots for TMP:
Then, restart your computer:
After restart, you should see files showing up in the new TEMP directory:
And when you open Revit file with links, you may see the revittemp_ files starting to appear:
Wow, Revit 2015 is really going for the ‘most updates’ record!
