Can we have access to 8.7a again? I've searched absolutely every where I can't find it, 8.7d broke Windows dialog boxes. Thanks!

[pbacot]

Thanks Fredo for the help! (I just haven't got back to checking this last one.)

Fredo,

I can not install Cruviloft! This is the error:

Curviloft: This plugin requires LibFredo6 version greater than 68.
Current version is 75.

I couldn't find a higher version of LibFredo. What should I do?
Thank you so much.

I think the message is that you require LibFredo6 v8.6, and you have an old version (v7.5).

So just upgrade LibFredo6.

Your Windows user-name in Chinese [劉 祐 成] "Liú yòu chéng" seems to be causing the issue.
Ruby is having difficulty encoding it into UTF-8 format...
Having non-ASCII characters in user-names used to be a recipe for an error in Ruby; however, more recent versions are much better in forcing UTF-8 from such strings.

Typically using this in the Ruby Console:
ENV['USERNAME'].encoding
or
ENV['HOME'].encoding
Returns this:
Windows-1252

Which is then converted to the required encoding of UTF-8 in the Ruby processing.

What do you get returned for those ENV tests ?

Perhaps Fredo can strengthen his code to force that encoding ??

Can anyone help me understand what this error means?

@modoleinad

Usually, this problem comes when you installed Sketchup without Administrator rights.

So I am afraid you need to uninstall SU2018 and reinstall.

[smeehanla]

I tried to download FredoTools and Toposhaper yesterday. My current LibFredo6 version is 8.5. I got a message saying that I need LibFredo6 version 86 for FredoTools and LibFredo6 version 87 for Toposhaper. The extension manager doesn't give me the option of updating my 8.5 version. Do I need to uninstall version 8.5 and then install version 8.7? Or do I leave 8.5 in the manager and just install 8.7?

[TIG]

No need to uninstall the earlier version[s].
The new installation will overwrite any equivalent files/version etc as needed.
But you should restart SketchUp after finishing the installation[s] to ensure everything gets synced...

cannot be set in sketchup2015, all Chinese is empty.

Can you be more explicit for the problem.

I do have the Chinese in SU2015
