        Hello!
        Need some help here please!
        I downloaded TT_Lib2 and TT_QuadFaceTools, unpack them and put in my plugin folder. But when I start SketchUp it came with:
        "TT_Lib2 detected that some of the files in plugins directory has ended up in Windows Virtual store. It happens because of insufficient permission for the plugin folder. Please move the files into the real Plugins folder."

          You need to fix the security permissions.

            The Explorer window that opens up should contain the rogue files that should be moved to the real Plugins folder.

            However, if you install the latest version 2.9.8 then you should not get that message any more as I removed that check. If you do have version 2.9.8 it means that you have an older version of TT_Lib loading, which would be a result of files in Virtual Store.

            You say you extracted the files in your Plugins folder, why did you not install the RBZ package using SketchUp? (Preferences > Extensions > Install Extension) It's recommended to let SketchUp install it for you. Extension Warehouse or Plugin Store would also be good.

              That was it! After changing my TT_Lib on 2.9.8 all things just works fine. But I've also change my permissions first.

              Thank you soooooo much πŸ˜‰

                  Have you installed the latest version of this Plugins AND the TT Lib [both available from the SketchUcation PluginStore] ?
                  It looks like you copied a older incompatible version from another SketchUp Plugins folder ?
                  All of TT's scripts should be compatible with v2014 [and earlier] IF you use the latest versions which have been updated to suit...

                    I did copy files from my v8 folder πŸ˜’ , but I deleted all the tt_ files manually. Then I went to SCF plugin store and installed all tt_ plugins one by one. The error still there. Is there a way to purge obsolete files so that I don't get an error? Just like there is fredo6 library purge option?

                      You can delete the files which are mentioned in the error message.

                        All my extensions should have a single root rb as well as a folder with the same name of the rb file. So there shouldn't be many files to remove.

                                      It's for converting imported geometry to Quads. When exporting geometry to blender and importing into SketchUp the edge that split the triangles in a non-planar quad is hidden - this function convert it to work with QuadFace Tools.

                                        When Blender to Quads fails you can also try using selection toys to select faces and hidden lines. Delete them and then run wireframe to Quads

                                            By fail I mean the mesh generated is not what you had in blender.

                                            Tons of reversed faces and duplicate faces.
