Hi Everyonut!

I'm a new Revit user. My previous experiance was in college using Archicad back in 2013.The only reason I am here is that my parent house burned down and we need a software to help us redisgn the rebuild.

I need help in 2 areas.1) Revit is operating in English, but the error messages are coming up in Spanish. I need to fix this to only English.

2) I am having a much harder time finding usable content for Revit 2020. I need basic Doors, Windows, and Mechanical Systems. Really all the basics for a residential house in the US. We will specify with the builder the final manufacturer, but we need somethign for the drawings. Where can I find these bim objects. I've not had success with most of the downloads being metric or older content that wouldnt open/upconvert in Revit 2020.

Thanks for all the help inadvance.Semper Fi

First, where did you get your Revit?  It really sounds like this is a boot-leg copy since you don't have all of the install information.

2. Almost all content is upgardeable automatically.  You can modify families from metric to english.
