Trouble with "group by texture"

[3DModellers]

I have this problem with "group by texture" plugin. Every time I click it, it just explodes the entire model and forgets regrouping. I tried with different textures, colors, groups or components, on small models or big models but the result was the same. I thought it might be a problem of compatibility between different rubies. So, I deleted all other rubies and tried only with one ruby and the sketchup.rb which is needed. There wasnt any difference.
Does anybody have any idea what could be the problem? I downloaded the ruby from smustard. I used it in skp 6 pro on xp sp3.

I'm not familiar with that ruby, but you could open the ruby console ( Window>Ruby Console )and run the script. If it is breaking mid way through, it will post some errors to the console. You can copy and paste them here and that might help spot the error quicker.

Try to purge all browsers before starting the script. ( Delete Bryce also if you have it on startup ) With V7 it was the problem with Sang. Maybe this helps.

I did that. This is what it said.

I'll look into it. I've had scattered reports of problems, even though it tested fine for me.
