          Hi Fredo,

          I was never able to resolve this.. I've resorted to trying to figure out how I can upgrade my sketchup and retain use of the main plugin I use (Twilight Render 2). This company and website no longer exist.

          I found a version of twilight for sketchup 2024 on the way back machine. I can get it installed and working but the licenses I purchased for the Pro features & add ons won't activate, assuming it's tied to my old install of windows.

          Anyway you could help me? Do you have any ideas or a direction you could point me in to help me activate this?

          Thank you 🙏

            You are in a thread about LibFredo6. I have no relation with Twilight Render.

                Hi,

                I'm still having the issue of"ArgumentError (invalid byte sequence in UTF-8)"

                I want to clarify that my Windows computer name has no non-roman characters. At first I thought it was related to the system language being set in both English and Thai . But the problem is still there when I'm using English only system.

                Extension Errors Report
                SketchUp: 24.0.594
                OS: Windows 11
                Ruby: 3.2.2

                Extension: Fredo6 LibFredo6 (15.4d - 14 Aug 25)

                  I still don't have a rational explanation for this bug which a few users have from time to time.

                  Did you touch or manipulate manually the plugin files, in particular the files with .plugin extension?

                  Can you try with LibFredo6 v15.4e, just released.

                      Salut, je suis sur Sketchup 2024 (OS X) mais impossible d'installer votre extension. Je n'ai plus la fenêtre "préférences". Avez-vous un conseil pour m'aider svp ? Merci beaucoup.

                        If you are using Fredo's extensions you also need to install the SketchUcation Toolset which manages the licensing, and LibFredo.
                        If you have the Toolset install you can browse and auto-install these extension/lib files without having to get an RBZ file etc.
                        To install the Toolset download its RBZ from this link...
                        https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=SketchUcationTools
                        The use the Extensions > Extension Manager dialog to install it for you. Restart SketchUp to sync everything...

                        Si vous utilisez les extensions Fredo, vous devez également installer SketchUp Toolset, qui gère les licences, ainsi que LibFredo.
                        Si vous avez installé SketchUp Toolset, vous pouvez parcourir et installer automatiquement ces fichiers d'extension/librairie sans avoir à télécharger de fichier RBZ, etc.
                        Pour installer SketchUp Toolset, téléchargez son RBZ depuis ce lien :
                        https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=SketchUcationTools
                        Utilisez la Toolset de dialogue Extensions > Extension Manager [Gestionnaire d'extensions?] pour l'installer. Redémarrez SketchUp pour synchroniser le tout...

                                    @fredo6 In practice, SketchUp closes without any warning or message. If I disable the Fredo library, SketchUp starts normally, but of course, the Fredo plugins — which are essential for me — do not work.

                                          I tried deleting all the Fredo plugins and SketchUp starts up normally. If I install only LibFredo, I've tried both the latest version LibFredo6_v15.5a and the previous version LibFredo6_v15.4c and SketchUp crashes on startup.
                                          Until a few days ago everything was working perfectly without problems, I only installed the new Sketchucation and apart from SketchUp 2026 which shouldn't affect my already installed SketchUp 2025 unless it installs something in common with SketchUp 2025 as well
