More Fredo6 plugins becoming paid extensions

fredo6

After more than ten years of free distribution, some of my plugins will become paid extensions.

Precisely, these are:

RoundCorner
JointPushPull
Curviloft
FredoScale
ToolsOnSurface
TopoShaper
Curvizard
VisuHole
The transition will take place as of March 1st 2022.

After a 30-day free-trial period, these extensions will require a Sketchucation license.
Price is USD 12 per plugin, or USD 40 for the bundle of all 8 plugins. Sketchucation Premium members have a significant discount on this pricing.

IMPORTANT: You need to install or upgrade to Sketchucation Extension Store v4.2.4 or above.

Given the sophistication of the plugins and constant updating you provide, they are worth it!
Is the payment a "one-off" purchase, or a rolling subscription?

Excellent! It's time you were compensated for your hard work and attention.

Can we just go ahead and buy the licenses now?

Hello I have searched a lot today to understand why these plugins no longer worked overnight.

I now understand why, too bad for the users, but for you it's a good thing. Indeed, your plugins are really great, I use them every day and they are among my top plugins.

Tomorrow, I'm getting down to buying all of these plugins.

Thanks @David R, for the link to this post.

Hi Fredo,
been using your plugins since ages,
I am a single person free lancer, and am in need of a single seat liscence.
went to buy the 8 plugin pack for 40usd, and found it to be good for 3 seats...
Is it possible for you to offer any discount for a single seat requirement for the plugins pack...
Will be of great help...40usd is a bit steep for me at the moment.
Will understand if u do say no.
Any ways, Sketchup is incomplete without Fredo plugins.

Regards..

I did send a PM, but seems u have your mail box flooded.

The payment page says perpetual liscence, means one time pay for the plugin, but no details about how we are covered or not in case of updates.

Guess Fredo can clea that detail.

Just tried Curviloft on my PC and it works just fine. Did he say that existing installs would stop working?

Licensing is independent from the download and upgrade of the extension. so you can upgrade at will. Similarly, it is independent from the version of Sketchup, past and future.

Hi Fredo is there a link to download and install the bundle?
I only found individual download page for each plugin in the store.

I had a heck of a time trying to find links for all the ones included. They aren't all listed on Fredo6's Sketchucation page. https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pauthor=fredo6

Here they are for anyone else looking for details.

Better, choose the Full List in the Extension Store tool. You have to have it installed anyway for the licenses to work and you might as well use it to install the extensions so it can help you keep them up to date.
