I am currently studying the Advanced Tutorials for Dynamo 1.X, but it seems that the datasets/files referenced in the tutorials are missing.
Could someone please help me locate the dataset files or provide an updated download link? Having access to the original files would save a lot of time and would be greatly appreciated.
Additionally, could you please advise where I can find advanced Dynamo tutorials for newer versions (Dynamo 2.X / Dynamo for Revit 2023+)?
Don’t even bother with anything from 1.X. At best, it’s an outdated reference. At worst, it’ll teach you to do things the wrong way. 2.X is almost 8 years old now and 3.X has some major advantages worth looking into.
“Advanced” is also pretty subjective. What exactly are you looking for? What training have you been through so far and where are you wanting to accomplish? I’d say Python and C# are a better progression of advanced use than complex nodal techniques.
Either way, the Primer, the Forum, and public sites like YouTube, GitHub, and industry blogs / content pages are always going to offer the best training and resources. You’ll probably get some more specific suggestions if you can update us on what exactly you’re looking for.
That was my assumption as well, but if they’re asking specifically about “advanced” tutorials (which as I mentioned is pretty subjective) then we need to know what “basic” tutorials and training they’ve already done. Especially since they’re talking about 1.X, which would be missing a ton of “basic” tutorials for 2.X and 3.X features. What was advanced in 2018 might be seen as pretty basic in 2026.
Thank you for the clarification, both to you and the other members as well.
I have just started exploring Dynamo and have followed through the initial set of videos on the main page of the website. I found them very useful and intuitive, as they gave me a solid understanding of the basics — how Dynamo works and the workflow mindset behind it.
I did notice that the videos listed below are marked as legacy, and therefore some nodes or options in newer versions may require a different approach. However, since they are still featured on the main page, I assumed they remain relevant in terms of overall concepts and methodology. I also wanted to give them a chance because the explanation style and pace of increasing complexity suit me well.
I am currently working in Dynamo 3.3.0, and I will now move on to Primer 2 as suggested and explore the other sources that you have mentioned.
The only reason I used the word “advanced” in the subject line was for easier reference to the specific video series (“Advanced Tutorials for Dynamo 1.x”). Other than that, I certainly do not consider myself advanced at this stage.
Glad you found the initial videos helpful! The concepts definitely still translate even if some nodes have moved or changed.
Since you’re on Dynamo 3.3.0 and moving into Primer 2, what’s your end goal? Are you looking to:
• Automate specific Revit tasks?
• Build reusable graphs for your team?
• Dive into Python or C# extensions?
Knowing what you’re working toward helps point you at the right resources (and there are some solid ones that didn’t exist when those 1.X tutorials were made).
Building reusable graphs for my team is one of the main reasons I became interested in Dynamo. In addition to that, I am particularly drawn to geometry manipulation and exploring the full range of its capabilities. At this stage, Python and similar programming languages are not within my scope of interest.
