Directlink model from Revit not appearing in the application.

I had to import a recovered version of a Revit file that crashed on me. However, this new model is somehow not appearing in Twinmotion.

When I type in F to find each component, the camera moves around, but the objects are invisible. I checked that the direct link is working as well.

I hope this can be remedied quickly. Thanks!

I am having this issue also, with direct link and with trying to simply import a Datasmith file, from Revit 2022 to Twinmotion 2022.2.3.

i also have the same issue, got instant regret by upgrading the twinmotion 2022.2.3 all of the sudden the objects in the viewport only appear when i lower the quality of the scene but when i try to export any image or video it only render the background or in my case only the ocean. PLEASE I NEED A WAY TO MAKE THIS WORK, i'm actually doing my architect thesis in Revit with twinmotion DirectLink and i'm unable to render the last video for my presentation, i tried relinking the project and nothing seems to work.

Same Issue here... I am going to roll back to the 2022.2.2 and see if that fixes the issue

The Datasmith Exporter plugin 5.1 is not compatible with Twinmotion 2022.2.3 or 2023.1 Preview 1. Please use 5.0.3v2 if you are using Revit 2021 and above. https://twinmotionhelp.epicgames.com/s/article/Datasmith-Exporter-plugin-5-1-compatibility-with-Twinmotion

Kind regards,

Update: The issue was not resolved with TM 2022.1.2 instead of TM 2022.2.3. Now I am suspecting it is an issue with the new datasmith plugin 5.1

Ok So I reverted back to the datasmith plugin 5.0 instead of the 5.1 and it has resolved the issue for mine with both datasmith file imports as well as Revit Directlink methods. Hopefully this works for your files!

i downloaded and installed datasmith 5.0, but i don't know if i did it right, when i open the project it's still the same. please could you tell me how did you do it? i dont now how or if i have to downgrade the TM 2022.2.2 too

Hi , but I managed to fix the issue by duplicating my Revit file and reimporting the duplicated file into Twinmotion. I asked around in reddit as well and found that this method does not work for everyone. I think your method should work.

Hey I'm having the same issue and I can only find datasmith 5.2. I'm using Revit 2021 and Twinmotion 2022.2.
