From looking at your website it is not clear which Operating System does your plugin support. Also, could you please provide more details about the US$49.00 Copyright Consent Fee Per Dwelling?
I did look at the explanation on the download page and would like to know what it all means in terms of being able or not to use LayOut to prepare the construction docs, the ability to work with the TrebleD generated model within default SU environment etc.

Hi Tandem,
Thanks for your enquiry. TreblD actually isn't a plug in, it is in fact a SketchUp model, so any technology that applies to SketchUp will apply to TreblD.
TreblD has been created to assist people, generally lay-people rather than design professionals, to design there own homes. (Although we certainly have no objection if a design professional wants to use it). If someone uses TreblD to design there own home but they want to take it to their own design professional (rather than the TreblD Studio)to prepare construction drawings or the like, that's OK. But the person who downloaded TreblD is obliged to pay TreblD (the rather modest) Copyright Consent fee of $49.
If that person is for example a property developer who wants to build that same dwelling on 5 different properties they are obliged to pay the fee 5 times. If they want to build 20 dwellings on one property they are obliged to pay the fee 20 times.
If (as it happens in the vast majority of cases) someone wants to download TreblD and play around with it at home just for fun, design 50 different dream-homes, an apartment complex, a retirement village, TreblD is absolutely free.
Feel free to take a look at it Tandem. It can be fun to mess around with, as Pilou found
Cheers

I see, thank you.

I've been considering the same general type of system for some time... Although my idea was to leave the rooms much simpler than you have. I had wanted a web interface that created 2D rooms that could be arranged into room patterns and then screen printed into files to give their respective designer... Your system seems quite complete, allowing the general public to take a modular approach to their dream home. That's an ingenious use of the component system of SketchUp.

Hi Kris,
Thanks for the thumbs up... very much appreciated to get that from someone with your level of experience.
Ive seen some 2D plan drawing systems on Youtube that generate an enormous amount of hits, so there's certainly a strong demand out there for that sort of thing. Personally I think if you're going to use a computer for design you may as well go for the extra D
Thanks again and all the best
