                  Why are you messing on with an RBZ ?
                  This is an old plugin - putting the RB file [latest version] inside the Plugins folder and restarting SketchUp ought to be all you need...
                  But if you want to use an .RBZ, you must make a .ZIP of the lone .RB and then change its file-type to .RBZ - use Preferences > Extensions > Install Extension... on that RBZ and it's put into the Plugins folder for you...

                  But have you [re]read the Usage instructions ?
                  This tool - when properly installed - works from the context-menu, but only when you have a suitable group selected...
                  Here are its instructions again...

                  @unknownuser said:

                  • Create a group with all the geometry you wish to deform. This group should contain just faces and/or lines.
                  • Right click the group and select one of the options in the FFD submenu. Either 2x2 or 3x3 or NxN FFD. Depending on the size of the model it could take a while (seconds I hope). At the end you should see a new group containing nothing but control points
                  • Open the control point group and move the control points as you wish. The object should deform as you move the points. NOTE: it can take a long time for complex models. Look at the status bar in the lower left to see the status of the deformation.

                    Thank you Chris. I was drawing the half dome of Maxentius basilica, and needed just that.

                      Hello
                      I'm a little bit corrected your plugin
                      Now It supports polygons.

                      He checks the creation of new edges. And converts the resulting triangles in polygon.

                      Strings 534-538

                                  It's an old plugin.
                                  So it won't be 'signed'.
                                  If you set SketchUp's Extension Loading Policy to be 'Unrestricted', then it should load - always presuming that it's still compatible with the current SketchUp version...

                                        They are inside a group, so edit the group and you can then select them individually, or multiply holding Shift etc, or by fence etc...

                                          Would appreciate any help on this because it looks like an awesome plugin.

                                          FIgured it out.
                                          1. double click ffd control points in outliner window
                                          2. be sure to check unlock edges in right click ffd context window

                                          I'll leave this here on the chance others are having the same issue

                                            Hi, I am new to Sketchup and installing plugins and extension.

                                            I'm unable to install the ruby Script in my Shetchup 2016. The plugin isn't loading. I have copied and dragged the file into my Plugins folder. Path - /Users/Praveen/Library/Application Support/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins

                                            Looking for some kinda guidance from the community on what I've done wrong
