Newbie installation issue...

[barcop]

I am a newly registered user, and finding the blog a bit hardgoing to get into, guess I'll get used to it.

What I am struggling to understand is how can I install Curviloft when the subject as I click on it does not allow me to download like other plug-ins. Is this because it is a beta? and how do I work with that? Any help gratefully received! http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=28586

Hi Barry and welcome!

Fredo posts his plugins very systematically. There's a big, fat, yellow image saying "Download" in each his posts:

below which you can find the download URL (when you are logged in):

Gaius, thanks for the prompt answer and yes! i downloaded successfully, and installed in plug-ins folder, only to find that on opening SketchUp a load errors window appears saying error loading file, uninitialized constant traducer error. So am stuck again before I can get started with this seductive looking app.

Gai's not on at the moment...
So... on the thread where you did this download, just below the download-link there is another link to a get required 'library' [it says you need it!].
Get that archived file and extract its subfolder [with its contents intact] into Plugins as well.
On a restart the required files should now be found and the errors should have gone...

I'm also splitting these few posts into another thread as they are quite 'off topic'...
