      I think this is all down to your new MAC having the ill-conceived case-sensitive file-system which prevents it finding some files which have capitalization in some circumsatnces - which it then regards as not being the same file ["Sketchup.rb" versus "sketchup.rb" etc]... this is all as discussed with you on another contemporaneous thread... So let's consolidate these discussions over there... πŸ˜’

          hoi,
          I tried to install the pluginsFolder for FredoTools .
          I had first installed LibFredo6.4 .
          By restarting Sketchup8 I got this message: LoadErrors (see attachment)
          How can I solve this problem ?

          greetings, Rik

            Rik,

            You have a wrong installation of LibFredo6. Please check the footprint on your machine to see if it matches what is documented in the main post.

              hoi, Fredo,
              I do not really understand what you want me to do,
              but I will send your message to my son (lol) .

              You know, I always wanted to test your "plugins" and yesterday I could download and install a few,
              but the FREDOTOOLS and the CURVILOFT wouldn't work .

              I hope I can work this out !

              greetings,

                    There's no FredoTool directory.

                    If you read the first post on this thread it clearly shows the footprint....

                        Hi Rik,

                        You can clearly see there's is no FredoTools folder in the root of your Plugins folder.

                        FredoTools need to be in the root for it to work.

                        have you downloaded and extracted/installed it.

                          i posted a screenshot of my plugins-folder,

                          do i have to give you a screenshot on another level ?

                          you know,
                          i would like to use your plugins to make organic forms in "cob"
                          and if al works right,
                          i am willing to pay a fear price for your work...

                          i hope i hear from you again
                          on the other hand,
                          i can remove all plugins and start over again ?

                            Rich posted a reply to you a few days ago, see it immediately before your recent post http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=438500#p438500

                            From your screenshot it's clear that you have NOT installed everything correctly.
                            For example, there is no 'FredoTools' folder in your 'plugins' folder...
                            Ensure that 'plugins' folder security-permissions are set to be 'FULL' [read/write] for you .
                            Also ensure that you install all of these files/subfolders in the MAC's 'HD' plugins folder path [as your screenshot correctly shows] and NOT in the similar 'users' plugins folder !

                            Please reread the posts, go back to the download page and ensure you have downloaded/extracted/installed the whole of the toolset's files/subfolder AND the required 'Lib' subfolder/files that is linked to from that page...

                              To anyone who my be able to help:

                              I have tried installing FredoTools and LibFredo6 4.6 and am getting the following error messages upon sketchup startup:

                              Error Loading File __loader.rb

                              I see 'LibFredo6 Settings' in the window tab, but cant access anything else. Any suggestions?

                              Thanks!

                                You have almost certainly mis-installed it.

                                Read back a few posts through this very thread...
                                There are very clear instructions in the first post AND in many subsequent ones on how to download and extract the files, and the subfolders of files etc, that this tool needs, including the supporting [linked to] 'Lib' set.
                                There are also some other posts regarding the general issues about download/extract/install toolsets, and links - including some to thomthom's 'Simple Plugin Installer' - which would [if you had it installed] avoid all of the headaches that some users like yourself seem to get themselves into with archived file-sets...

                                  i have installed libfredo6_Dir_46,
                                  not fredotools
                                  i tried it, but it wouldn't work

                                  but the strange thing is,
                                  curvizard
                                  and
                                  curviloft
                                  didn't run either,
                                  and now it runs smoothly

                                  thanks for the plugins,
                                  i'll try to install the FREDOTOOLS later on

                                    For whatever reasons Windows7 doesnΒ΄t allow winrar - in my case - to unpack the files to the plugins directory.
                                    Follow the above recomendations allowing winrar to run under administrator rights and itΒ΄s done.Hope iy helps

                                      It's not so much the decompression application running as 'admin'... BUT that 'you' have FULL security-permissions to read/write to the Plugins folder [and for that matter Components, Materials and Styles folders too, because from time to time 'you' will want to add files to those...]

                                        hi,

                                        can I copy paste only the FredoTools_CurviShear.rb only to the plugins folder and erase all other plugins from the FredoTools_Dir_12 folder?

                                        will it load properly like the old day coz i only need the curvishear to make a ramp

                                          NO it won't work.
                                          But if you go to the Default Parameters dialog box of FredoTools, you can select which ones would appear in the icon toolbar and in the contextual selection menu.

                                          Fredo

                                            I had Remove Lonely Vertices in my context menu. This has recently disappeared. Is there some trick to get it into the context menu?

                                            Thanks, Peter
