It would be useful to know what 'does not work'.

Hello,

V8.4g didn't work well in my pc too.
My sketchup versions are 2018pro and 2014pro, and both of them don't work well.

This is error message. Sorry for two-byte text for I use Japanese version....
First line is just noticing error.

I wondered that this occurs because of my two-bite code user dir name(which automatically named when I installed win10),
but when I use older version libFredo, This problem didn't occur.

Does this helps you?

By way of experiment, I made new windows user named alphabetical, and I newlly installed libfredo. then my probrem on this plugin was solved, It seems to be work well.

Sorry for my impatience and Thanks for wonderfull plugin...

fredo6 · 4 Jul 2018, 18:14

@GHira,

Definitely the error comes from your 2-bytes Windows username.

Your profile indicates that you use Sketchup 2014. Is that correct?

If so, then I suggest you move to Sketchup Make 2017 or Sketchup Pro 2018, which have a better support of Unicode in Ruby.

I'm having a similar issue with Curviloft (see attached image).
Perhaps there is a conflict with VRay? Was trying to troubleshoot why my toolbars wouldn't save their position. Ended up uninstalling / reinstalling plug-ins and received the Curviloft 1.7d: Error starting up plugin (creating menus and icons) error as well as a "lib6core.rbe:1058:in 'rescue in block in effective_load_part2" error.

Sorry, I just realized that the max size for an image is 2MB and 1600 px. I resized it here.

guz · 12 Jul 2018, 15:36

Apologies for that. I didn't read the image limitations when I made my attachment. It is fixed now.

by process of elimination i discovered today that Fredo6 plugins are making my SU 2017 Pro run very very slow at satrtup and when i invoke the toolbards dialog box. I disabled all my plugins to find that sketchup ran fine. i enabled Fredo 6 lpugins again and slowness occurs again. I ahve udpated to latest version of all Fredo 6 plugins but have found the probelm persists.

windows 7 64 bit syste 32GB ram
Video Card Nvidia quadro M1000M

Edit: perhaps not, also disabled Vray and find better performance.

fredo6 · 13 Jul 2018, 22:05

@penumbra

You have a performance menu entry showing the time to load for my plugins. I am interested by the result.

Is the slowness only for the startup time, and/or after when you model in Sketchup. Do you observe a lag after you see all toolbars displayed?

It does not open in the window bar, but old versions work.
I use Windows 8 and SketchUp Pro 2017.

The accented "i" in your [Portuguese ?] Windows user name [ tha**í**s] is almost certainly causing the issue.
Accented characters broke many scripts, until the newer versions of SketchUp got an updated Ruby installation, with extra tools available to try and circumvent such problems...

However, Fredo's tools have for a long time forced file-path encoding etc into UTF-8 format...
So I am surprised that this issue has occurred, let's wait for Fredo's comments...

Fredo6 is upgrading his extensions, support for some older versions of SU are being deprecated to facilitate compatibility with newer coding. SU8 would definitely be on the list of no longer supported SU versions.

Helle · 20 Aug 2018, 20:28

oh, what a shame. I read it as "pre-8" and thought I could use it. Thanks for the fast reply

cam_l · 22 Aug 2018, 00:01

any chance someone has a copy of the last pre-su8-deprecated version of libfredo? not even sure which version that would be..
