I was just telling you what a number of people have found to be the cause of plugins not working. Vray has been causing problems for a lot of users with more than just the Round Corners plugin.

... earlier on another system, vray1.6+ su8+win7 gave bugsplat. Is SU7 the only stable place to run vray 1.6 for now??

well you suggested to disable vray and i accidentally uninstalled it.... however even that didnt work...

its actually depressing

Shyamscool

but hey! i uninstalled vray and RC still didnt work...

rc Su13 vray 1.6 win7 issue

The cause of the crash between Vray 1.6 Beta and RoundCorner has been identified. So I guess there will be an update of Vray 1.6 anytime soon.

There are other reasons for problems with RoundCorner

Wrong installation or missing LibFredo6
The Plugins directory is not in full Write access mode. The Access rights are needed due to a remaining trace and the implicit savings of parameters.

In all cases, epening the Ruby console before launching RC may show the kind of problems and thus guide toward a solution.

Sweet! now i need to learn how to launch ruby control...hello google

sometimes i wish this was the matrix and I could just download all info in my head.

Dave R

Not Ruby "Control". Try Window>Ruby CONSOLE

Shyamscool

yes yes yes! fixed it!
first one was

Error: #<Errno::EACCES: Permission denied - C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/Fredo6Trace.txt>

C:/Program Files (x86)/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/LIBFREDO6_Dir_49/Lib6Core_49.rb:713:in

so u have to go n give permission to every file? I thought giving permission to the main plugin folder solved it all.. any way, now back to installing vray 1.6. hope it works.. if not i have to disable it in the extensions menu every time I model, right?

Dave R

So you didn't set full permissions to .../SketchUp 2013/Plugins until now and now it works?

i did that for the SketchUp 2013 plugins folder but not the individual extension folders and files inside it..

When you give FULL security permissions to the Plugins folder for all who are listed then these changes should ripple down to all contained subfolders and files...
How are you setting these permissions ?

Dave R

Your Windows installation must be different. I didn't have to do that with any folders installed inside Plugins.

hmmm yeah maybe stuff is always the difficult way for me ..booo

any way.. installed vray 1.6 again, as soon as i click on the green click, BUGSPLAT!

guess we just have to wait for the next release of 1.6

Dave R

No surprises there.
