Does anyone know what’s going on here?
This is a sign of a DLL conflict, usually from Revit addins. Check your Revit journal for API_Error codes as they will likely give some clearer indication as to what is in conflict. If you can’t find the issue there, disable all Revit add-in and Dynamo customizations, restart your CPU and then launch Dynamo and see if that clears it up. Then start addin back Revit add-ins in small groups until you the issue comes back, knowing that the group you added caused the conflict to return and then narrow it down to the one which needs an update.

Hmm ok thanks i’ll check that out.
I do remember installing Bimorph package half an hour before this started…
If i figure out what’s caused this ill report back,
Thanks Jacob!
It stopped after uninstalling Bimorph
Edit, after Jacob’s response perhaps i was too quick to assume this was caused by Bimorph, as my log shows a ton of errors.
99% of the for that package I lean towards an add-in conflict as the author is quite skilled and the package is rather well built and maintained, but things happen.
Check to make sure there isn’t a Revit add-in in conflict before looking to BiMorph particularly (search your Revit journal for API_Error as a tip - DLL conflicts will show up here). After that make sure you have a compatible version of BiMorph for your Revit environment - you might need a newer or older verison of the package for your Revit release (i.e. the latest won’t work in Revit 2014). Finally reach out to the package author to report the issue.
Welp, i just checked the logs
I have a TON of errors heh…

Multiple tools in there which have had to issue updates to resolve conflicts in the past, so safe bet that missing one (or many) of those updates are at fault here.
Disable them all, and enable via a binary search until you narrow in on the issue. This will confirm which is playing poorly with Dynamo/bimorph.
An example of applied binary search
Binary search above means to always test half the total remaining set. An example which assumes only one add-in is in conflict.
Say you have 128 add-ins.
First test 1-64. If the issue occurs you know one of those is dirty, so 65-128 are ‘clean’.
Now test 1-32. If the issue reoccurs your know that 33-64 are clean.
Now test 1-16. If the issue reoccurs you know 17-32 is clean.
Now test 1-8. If it reoccurs 9-16 are clean.
Now 1-4. If it reoccurs 5-8 are clean.
Now 1-2. If it reoccurs 3-4 are clean.
Now 1. If it reoccurs 2 is clean and 1 is in need of an update.
Now enable 2-128 and repeat the halving process until no issues are found.
And since it is a true false test, with only 7 tests you can find the one failure point by testing the first half of the previously untested set.
