SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

HornOxx · 4 Apr 2022, 11:08

Hi All, hello Fredo
I want to buy the entire package of the Fredo6´s tools which need to be licensed now.
Yes, embarrassing for me but I can't even find out how the purchase process works or where to do it - could someone please have the patience to guide me there?
(is it possible to buy such a "package"-license at all or will it work as a separate license for one specific plugin at a time?)

HornOxx · 4 Apr 2022, 11:32

Thanks Tig !!!!
While you were writing your kind helpanswer to me, I accidentally clicked on the "Manage License" button and another window appeared. Really, I have never encountered the English term "Obtain" before. Anyway, I landed on the page which I was not able to find until now.
Thanks again!

and just in case others fail to buy already like me I´ll add this screenshot

This dialog based method is to 'obtain' [get] a license for that particular extension.
NB.
In this context 'obtain'... means to get or gain or attain something - usually by a deliberate action or effort [e.g. unlike the phrase 'to get a headache' where it is not deliberate, as you are unlikely ever to 'obtain' one on purpose !!]...

However, the 'bulk' link I gave you lets you buy a set of several extensions in one go for a discounted cost...

... wunderbar! your help and your great "headache" term explanation and of course the current discount Thanks a lot and everything worked fine!

Why request to Sketchucation = ERROR_A04？

Hi Wantao,

Could you please erase your signature file at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\SCF Licenses\SCFLicenseSignature - DO NOT MODIFY OR DELETE.txt and retry the activation? If you still get the same error message, please PM me your signature file for further investigation.

Have you installed the latest versions of Lib Fredo and the SketchUcation toolset ?
Have you restarted SketchUp afterwards ?
This is needed to properly sync the set up...

As Rich says, also check that your firewall set up 'whitelists' SketchUcation.com etc...

Hello, do you have a detailed explanation for this manipulation? On my side nothing seems to block and I do not see where whitelist sketcheducation on my Mac or on ski directly. Thanks

Could you try to do a check for updates for my plugins (menu entry: Windows > LibFredo6 Settings... > Check Plugins for Update).

Fredo
Love your extensions. A Fan!
Glad to pay for them.
I cannot seem to get Scale to validate.
I have SketchUcation 4.1.3
I went into My user/app data/to delete the text file indicated above.
I bought it about an hour ago. Do I need to wait longer?

You need to update the Sketchucation Extension Store. The current version is 4.2.5. Use the existing version to install the update. Then close SketchUp and restart.

Thanks, Dave
That worked

The license file is not working at all.

TIG · 6 Apr 2022, 11:18

The license version [5.3] reported in that dialog [top-left] is not the current one [5.4].
Install the latest version of the SketchUcation toolset from the PluginStore/ExtensionStore³ [>= v4.2.5].
Restart SketchUp to sync everything...

What version of SketchUp? What operating system? Please complete your profile.

Hello, I just purchased the Freedo6 perpetual license bundle. But when I try to install the license for RoundCorner, I get the same error message

msg_validation_error
Request to Sketchucation = ERROR_F07

I read this entire forum and followed the steps to delete the
SCFLicenseSignature - DO NOT MODIFY OR DELETE.txt
file in the AppData/ Local / SCF Licenses folder and then repeated the validate license procedure. Still same error.

If this cannot be resolved I would have to request a refund.

I'm using the latest available Sketchucation Manager 4.2.5

I am using Sketchup Make 2017
Windows 11 64 bit

I was able to run RoundCorner (latest version) during the free trial period if that helps.

TIG · 6 Apr 2022, 12:20

As well as having the latest version of the SketchUcation Toolset, you also need to have the latest version of Lib Fredo installed, and of course the newest version of each relevant Fredo's extension installed...
Can you checked this...

Also, have you restarted SketchUp after the installation[s], to ensure everything syncs ?

simplesketch · 6 Apr 2022, 12:29

I updated my profile, I am using
Sketchup Make 2017
Windows 11 64-bit operating system

I have Freedo6 library version 12.5a (21 Feb 22) installed
I have RoundCorner installed
latest version of Sketchucation

TIG · 6 Apr 2022, 12:32

See
https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=LibFredo6
The latest version is 12.8a 17-03-2022 - yours is out of date...
Try installing that etc...

I now uninstalled all Freedo6 plugins and LibFredo6. I deleted the SCF file. Then I restarted sketchup, reinstalled the LibFredo6 (latest version 12.8) and RoundCorner using the Sketchucation plugin. Restarted sketchup again. Tried to validate license, same error.
