skytrooper,

The link I posted is the place you need to go to. You read the first post and download from there (it is always the latest version). The post may have additional plugins that are required or may have links where to download those. TIG has explained the rest above.

Hi pbacot . Tell me something LibFredo6 mention putting the plugins in the Sketch-Up plugin folder is this something that come with SketchUp8 or do I make a new folder and place the plugins in it. When I downloaded the Sketych-up 8 I didn't get a Sketch-Up folder.
Thankz you

Billy,

There's is a Plugins folder under Google/Google SketchUp 8 (the SketchUp folder) which you must also have if you have SketchUp installed and running.

It sounds like you need someone to help you out with this personally to get this straightened out. If you want that, send me a PM.

There is a PM icon below each poster's avatar/details.

If you do not understand the most basic functions of your PC then we have an uphill struggle
Do you understand how to use 'Windows Explorer' to open a window, which will show you the contents of the folder ?
Then if you double-click on a subfolder's icon, then that opens and so on until you have opened the folder you want... Double-clicking a file icon opens the file in it's designated application if any.

You are looking for:
C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins
The folder will exists if you have let SketchUp install itself in the default manner - if you did a custom-install its folder could be anywhere, but the Plugins folder will still be automatically created in that folder-tree.
The 'Programs Files' folder name might be named slightly differently [+ (x86)] if you have a 64bit OS...

You do not 'run' anything

Hi TIG. I reckon I have the c:\program files (x86)\google\google sketchup 8\plugins the reason I think so is that the B1 free Archiver reads at the top c:\program files(x86)\google\google sketchup 8\plugins. I didn't know that I had this. and would you know what is causing this error . I just tryed to install the LibFredo6 to SketchUp and got this message SketchUp was unable to install the Extension you have chosen for unknown reason
Consult your Extension's documentation for additional help
I dont have a Extension's documentation or I dont understand what they mean will you help me
Thank you

SO you can find your Plugins folder

Next... that error-message suggests you have insufficient security-permissions to add files to your Plugins folder.

By default Windows limits security-permissions to folders within the 'Program Files' folder to be 'read-only'.
You need to have 'FULL' [read/write] security-permissions to the Plugins folder to be able to add files into it.
So... to fix the folder's settings you need 'admin-rights' - it's a good idea to give yourself admin-rights in the Users Control Panel...
Now highlight the Plugins folder's icon: right-click > context-menu > Properties > Security > Edit.
Give everyone listed FULL rights.
OK to apply and save changes...
From now on you should be able to install plugins manually... OR by using the much easier v8 'installer' features available when plugins come packaged in RBZ archive format...

In passing... can I suggest you also 'fix' the permissions for the SketchUp Components, Materials and Styles subfolders, because from time to time you will want to add files into those too...

Hi guys.
Will it work for SketchUp 2013 ? Or is there a similar plugin in extension warehouse?
Thanx

Dave R · 18 Nov 2013, 11:50

Yes. It works in SU2013. Why would you think otherwise?

Hi.
I get the Message 'Module RoundCorner requires Sketchup version greater than 5.0.160. Current Version is 13.0.4812'

What to do about?

That is the error message you get when trying to install an old version of the plugin. Where did you get it!

Go to the PluginStore at the top of the page and install the latest version from there. Also install the latest version of Libfredo. Better still, install the pluginstore tool itself and auto install the plugins you want from within sketchup.
