      Sorry for the late reply. Mac will be supported in the next version. It was supposed to be out last week but I found some problems and havent had a chance to fix them. It should be in a few days.

                  Sorry, I know I am late with the new version. I have been real busy.

                  I'll work on this week but no promises.

                    I downloaded the newest version of sketchy physics and installed it. I have sketchup pro 8. When sketch up starts i get the following message

                    Error Loading File sketchyphysics.rb
                    undefined method extend_object' for Singleton'

                    then when i try to download and use a sketchy physics model from wharehouse, they dont work and i get the following message.

                    Error starting the simulation:uninitialized constant. msketchyphysics 3::SP3xSimulationContext::SP Sounds C:/PROGRA~1/google/GOOGLE~3/plugins/sketchyphysics3/controller commands. Rb:777:in 'initialize'

                    can anyone help me with how i sort this out?

                    Lucy

                      I have never seen that error before. Best guess something went wrong with the new Midi sound support. What version of windows are you using? Do you have any thing unusual about your sound setup?

                        Hi,

                        I get the exact same error as Loolytoo above. The only apparent difference is I am using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and SU7. I have tried reinstalling SketchyPhysics. When I run a sample model, the Ruby console shows this;

                        Checking if dueForUpdate
                        String doesn't compile: uninitialized constant MSketchyPhysics3::SP3xSimulationContext::SPSounds#<NameError: uninitialized constant MSketchyPhysics3::SP3xSimulationContext::SPSounds>

                        C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins/SKMtools/image_class.rb:946

                        Had I made this model myself, I would say it is operator error, but that is not the case.
                        Could someone shed some light on how to either solve this or work around it so I could try my hand at using this plug-in?

                        Thanks,

                        Andy

                          64 bit might be the problem. It looks like the scripts are not loading properly so the bug is probably happening before the error you submitted.

                          Try this:
                          Load Sketchup
                          Open the ruby console under the windows menu.
                          Then type this:

                          load('sketchyphysics.rb')

                          It will probably print an error. If so send it to me and I can track it down.

                          Thanks
                          Chris

                            Hi Chris,

                            I did as you suggested (I hope).

                            After disabling Sketchyphysics from the plug-in menu, restarting SU and entering the statement, I got this;

                            load('sketchyphysics.rb')
                            true

                            If I then restart sketchyphysics from the plug-in menu, the console gives this;

                              Hmmmmm. It isnt obvious what the problem is from the log. But I dont think its a 64 bit problem.

                              It might be a plugin conflict. Would you mind testing that?

                              Copy your plugins directory so you can restore it after testing.
                              Then get rid of everything but:
                              SketchyPhysics.rb
                              SketchySolids.rb
                              win32api.so
                              SketchyPhysics3\ <-directory.

                              Then try again with the ruby console method.

                              Thanks for helping track this down!

                                Ok-we are making progress!

                                When I do as you suggested and start SU, I get the following:

                                Error Loading File sketchyphysics.rb
                                undefined method `file_loaded?' for main:Object

                                But, once I clear this and start SU, I can load sketchyphysics through the console and run the model. At this point, the console gives this:

                                C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/plugins/SketchyPhysics3/Images/hinge.png

                                createSelectionObserver
                                PhysicsObjectInspector initialized
                                C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/plugins/SketchyPhysics3
                                C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Plugins
                                C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/Tools
                                loading scripts version:45
                                C:/Program Files (x86)/Google/Google SketchUp 7/plugins/SketchyPhysics3/midiator/lib/midiator/midiator
                                true

                                I'm guessing this second part is normal because after this I can run the model. I will spend some time this weekend loading plugins one at a time until I hit the error and then report back.

                                Thanks for your help and this nifty script. I am happy to help as I am mostly an observer here with little opportunity to contribute.

                                  Suggests that 'sketchup.rb' isn't loaded at that point.
                                  At the very start of 'sketchyphysics.rb' add the line
                                  require 'sketchup.rb'
                                  that should fix at least that one error - then hopefully the consequential ones too...

                                    TIG nailed the first part of the problem with his suggested fix.

                                    After rebuilding my plug-ins folder, I have determined the culprit causing the conflict is a ruby called 'singleton' in a folder called 'ruby'. As near as I can tell, it is used with Jim Foltz's 'autocenterpoint'.

                                    With that one file removed, SketchyPhysics seems to load and run just fine. I hope this helps and look forward to a fix.

                                    Thanks to both of you for your help with this.

                                      I have the same problem running SketchyPhysics3.2 on sketchup 7 and Mac OSX 10.5.8 on Intel Core 2 Duo:

                                      Error Loading File sketchyphysics.rb

                                        I can't tell you how happy I am to see SP upgraded.

                                        I've avoided SP for some time because I simply could not climb the learning curve (that's ME, not SP!) then got too busy with too many other things to get back. Still too busy, but in a few weeks I WILL load SP 3.1 and get back to it.

                                        Now a cupla questions based on ...... what Andy1347 said (in part)

                                        *After rebuilding my plug-ins folder, I have determined the culprit causing the conflict is a ruby called 'singleton' in a folder called 'ruby'. As near as I can tell, it is used with Jim Foltz's 'autocenterpoint'.

                                        With that one file removed, SketchyPhysics seems to load and run just fine.*

                                        ❓ Is there any logic to the ORDER in which SU loads RUBY scripts?
                                        ❓ Does it matter (and in the case above, it seems too)?
                                        ❓ Is there any practical way to control loading order, if required?

                                          I get a message: Error Loading File sketchyphysics.rb
                                          undefined method extend_object' for Singleton'

                                          Am I missing any files? Thanks!

                                            That error [undefined methodextend_object' for Singleton'] is from a standard RUBY installation [ singleton.rb] - where it might be called by several other standard modules/classes/methods - BUT as far as I know it has nothing to do with the SketchUp version if Ruby OR SketchyPhysics itself. Do you have other 'Ruby files' loading, that aren't standard Plugin scripts ??
