Filter by Saved Presets with Generative Design
You can now filter Generative Design by presets that you’ve saved on the cloud or locally. This allows you to specify where our AI pulls information from. By allowing you to narrow the inputs, you’ll get more relevant, on-point designs every time.
Check Turning Radius with Vehicle Path
Here’s something fun—a new way to visualize how different vehicle types would move through your site. You can create vehicle paths with customizable path and turn radius to optimize for safe and efficient site circulation.
See Image Embed on Deal Pipeline
When sharing a deal on the deal pipeline or locally, image attachments are now always embedded in your projects to provide more context for your feasibility studies.
Revit 2025
Getting ready for the new year! We’ve updated our Revit plugin to support Revit 2025 by transitioning to .NET Core 8. This ensures TestFit remains fully compatible with the latest Revit version, so your workflows stay smooth.
Details:
- Greatly improved the ability of the high-density solver to solve smaller sites.
- Added custom stalls to Generative Design overrides.
- Now automatically scrolling to newly created layers in the Sites tab.
- Now automatically scrolling to the selected layer when switching back to the Sites tab.
- Updated metric presets to match imperial presets.
- Parking garages that aren't of type free-shape can now be moved in 3D.
- Improved the visual quality of SSAO.
