          No, i just opened the Ruby Consol after SU started and didn't see anything.
          There is permanently a check beside Load Vray, if that gives you any hints... I try to uncheck it and nothing happens.

                      What exactly is not working for you? Error messages? No menus? VfSU won't start?

                      No error massages and menus is appear as usual, but it did not operate properly, i mean, nothing happen, there is no any VRay toys effect afterwards and VRay is still allready ON when i open the SU8 and not "on demand" like it should be πŸ˜‰

                      1. i've put "VRayToys folder" and VRayToys.rb in SU8 plugin folder "\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 8\Plugins"
                      2. i open the SU8, turn off the VRay toolbar and i quit SU8
                      3. i open the SU8 again (this way is working when i'm still SU7) and then nothing happen...

                      sorry if my explanation somewhat confusing πŸ˜„


                      Start VRay on VRay toys not active


                      VRay for sketchup and VRay tools still appear, even when the VRay toys alredy operate

                        Did you just close the toolbar, or did you disable VfSU from Window > Preferences > Extensions ?
                        You need to do the latter.

                            yes, I've done both ways...
                            Finally, I tried to remove the VRayToys first, then put it back...
                            Weird, VRayToys can work again like it should πŸ˜„
                            But, when i try to Load VRay, it takes 15-20 minute to Appear 😒
                            Is there something i done wrong? please help...

                                        Updated to make Load on Demand compatible with the new VfSU release.

                                        When using VfSU 1.48.66 or newer - you can now enable or disable VfSU from Preferences -> Extensions in SketchUp.
                                        But that will enable VfSU for all SU sessions. If you want to enable VfSU in just one session then use V-Ray Toys->Start V-Ray.

                                        Thank you for creating the updated script. This is working for me on SU 8 with V-Ray 01.48.89. Does anyone know of a method to disable VfSU automatically (without having to go into Preferences -> Extensions)? I know this is a one time step, however I may be using V-Ray Toys in a company environment to offer the option of loading V-Ray upon demand. I am looking for a way to have the default state of SU 8 such that it will NOT load V-Ray. This was possible under SU 7 as one could simply rename the ruby script file to ".disabled". It seems that the way scripts load are a bit different under SU 8. If anyone knows of the file or registry location where the information regarding the disabled extension is being stored in SU 8 I would appreciate it.

                                        Thanks,
                                        Peter

                                          1.2 of this plugin works with VfSU 1.48.xx. Disable VfSU under extensions and you can use this plugin to load it. That is how I got my environment set up.

                                          (I need to update the description.)

                                            Yes, it absolutely works. Thanks for creating it and keeping it up to date. β˜€

                                            Semi-related to V-Ray Toys, does anyone know of a way to disable V-Ray for SU prior to first launch of the software? Manually disabling VfSU in extensions must obviously change something that I may be able to replicate on another machine...prefs file, registry, etc. Thanks if anyone knows.
