We now have bi-directional data exchange between Revit <–> Rhino. A new version has been posted to the Food4Rhino site http://www.food4rhino.com/project/hummingbird?ufh that includes a component for reading .CSV files and using the data to build geometry in Rhino-Grasshopper. This version also includes a lot of small fixes and additions so be sure to look at the new Users Guide.
There is also a new site, in addition to the FoodForRhino site, where you can download software as well as sample data and other kinds of resources: http://www.whitefeet.com/Hummingbird/

A new version has been posted to the Food4Rhino site http://www.food4rhino.com (search for “hummingbird”) This version installs for both Revit 2014 and 2015 (even if you don’t have them on your computer.)
There are some useful documentation and sample files at http://www.whitefeet.com/Tools/ in the Hummingbird – Rhino to Revit Translation section. (You will need to create an account and agree to the license agreement but you can use Hummingbird without buying a WhiteFeet Tools license.)
This update exposed a number of issues that need to be fixed. We are also working on a Revit –> Rhino upload option. So stay tuned for another update.

Periodically I fix little things that users encounter. For example, today I realized that the Revit ModelBuilder was not setting double parameter values correctly. I fix these and repost the updates to the www.whitefeet.com/Tools/ site. Sometimes it takes a while for them to get to the Food For Rhino site. There is an Excel file on the WhiteFeet site that lists the versions:
I’ve created a new version that includes an .MSI file installation (finally!) It also includes a nifty tool for viewing and editing the .CSV files.
I’m not sure when the Food For Rhino site will be updated. To get the latest it is best to use my WhiteFeet site: www.whitefeet.com/Tools/
