Hello I think you íntalled an old version. You can install the latest version from Package Manager (make sure to uninstall any existing version first, just to be safe)
The latest version does not contain DynaSpace nodes. I installed it from package manager.
@LongNguyen
Same issue: the latest version doesn’t include DynaSpace Nodes. I’ve been stuck using Dyna Space on Revit 2025 for the past few days.

The dlls and other files for DynaSpace in package are missing altogether
You installed things incorrectly or removed required files at some point.
To get Dynashape working in 2025.4 (the current build - if you’re not current for Revit 2025 start with a Revit update) perform the following:
- Go into your Dynamo preferences and remove any non-standard paths. You should only see something like this but with your username instead of mine:
- Close Revit, open a file explorer and go to your new package download path. This should be something like
%appdata%\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\3.3\packages
but if you’ve customized things too much it may be elsewhere. - Find the DynaShape folder and delete it, then delete the MeshToolkit folder. This will remove any reference to Dynashape and MeshToolkit in your Dynamo library - we should be back at step zero.
- Restart Revit, start a new project, launch Dynamo, start a new graph. Confirm you don’t have any reference to Dynashape or MeshToolkit in your library.
- Open the Dynamo package manager, and search for Dynashape. Click ‘view details’, and then ‘install’ under version 0.9.1.
- Click accept on the ‘python or dlls’ notification, and then ‘accept’ on the dependent package notification to also install MeshToolkit. When you’re done it should look like this:
- Close the package manager and confirm you have MeshToolkit and Dynashape in your library, as shown here:
- Click to open a new graph in Dynamo, and navigate to
%appdata%/Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\3.3\packages\DynaShape\extra\Samples\
and open01_HangingChain.dyn
. Accept the trust warning and toggle the run mode to automatic. - Read the instructions above the Solver.Execute node, but the gist of it is:
- Toggle ‘Reset’ to false
- Toggle ‘Execute’ to true
- Toggle ‘FastDisplay’ to false
- Toggle
Execute
to false - Confirm you have content in the watch nodes
If the watch nodes have content and things run without error then you’re all set - go forth and use Dynashape as any other user would from here.
If you do not have content in your watch nodes or you have warnings around stuff failing post your latest Dynamo log from %appdata%\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\3.3\Logs
. It should be the session which failed, incomplete (you didn’t close Revit or Dynamo did you?), and will have a record of your installing Dynashape, MeshToolkit, and opening the hanging chain file.
DynaShape package originally contains two node libraries: DynaShape and DynaSpace. The recent package version has only DynaShape. I tried downloading the package from the packages website to check. The bin folder does not contains contents for DynaSpace…even the pic you are showing does not contains DynaSpace
99% sure that the nodes you are looking for were rolled into the core DynaShape library in between the version you are seeing in screenshots and the version which I am showing, but I am not at my PC to check. Can you point out a node which is missing?
Sadly blog posts and examples don’t update as code is modernized.
hey, just followed your instructions and checked again. My Dynamo settings are set to default so my path settings for packages is same as yours. Reinsalled the packages…DynaSpace Nodes are still missing.
And this bit?
What should I look for in the log file?
Post it and the journal here for review - I don’t know what the flags will be offhand.
here, I have same issue. as you can see, there is no DynaSpace in bin folder. Just DynaShape. Could u show me this on your PC? @jacob.small. i thing he stop developing it
Not at my PC till Monday.
@LongNguyen can you confirm if the DynaSpace concepts are workable via DynaShape, or do users need DynaSpace?
Hi guys. You are right, the 0.9.1 version on the package manager does not yet include DynaShape.
Please give version 0.9.2 a try:
Thanks for this!
Hi, how do you install this Zip?
I copied the folders / files under my Dynamo package folder, and I still get this:
Do the samples DYN files for Dynashape require 9.2 now?
Thank you
@Giovanni_Succi You also need to install the MeshToolkit package (available from the package manager). After that restart Dynamo Then you should see DynaShape appear in the Library panel.
Ok, so in 2025, in the 02a_Tensile sample scripts the nodes are all resolved, and they appear to be working.
However, the results are not as in the tutorials.
I was expecting the net to be pulled by the 4 rods, but instead it just falls down…

Thank you again
