[Plugin] Sketchup Ivy

solo

Is it just me or does everyone have a problem with JPP now? When I delete the Ivy plugin then JPP works, with Ivy it hangs.

66searcher

@Pierreden:
...when i select it from plugins sub-menu nothings appear(no menu) & selection(mouse left button) stops working ,and it can't be deactivate from plugins sub-menu.until i select a tool from toolbar..and then it makes it deactivate!
it's a complicated situation that i can't explain in better way !

It happens me the same thing that 66searcher. It can be a conflict with other plugins

solo

Actually it's a combination of three plugins, e-onlumenrt.rb seems to mess with ivy, ivy and lumenrt mess with JPP, however if I remove lumenrt then ivy and JPP work.... strange.

Pierreden

@66searcher/gaonirico: Thats not good. Uploaded a new fix (0.5.1). test it out.

@solo: Thats very weird. The only thing i can think of is that LumenRT adds an observer to something. Checked out JPP's source and cant find any sheared namespaces or anything.... Any suggestions?

solo

It's lumenrt that's the culptrit. no problems now that I deleted it.

I reported this to them on the e-on software beta forum.

... the second and but notable is that not takes me the changes of parameters in the menu

Pierreden

It seems like Sketchup cant find the correct material, which is "Ivyleaf_2" (it looks for "Ivyleaf_21"), or that vray looks for the wrong one. Does this happen every time you make an ivy, or does it happen on special actions? Cant recreate this myself. After completely uninstaling and reinstaling the plugin, i dont get any errors with sketchup nor with vray

(I appreciate your debugging very much gaonirico!!)

gaonirico

It uninstalled and installed and did not give errors with the material. In the image of the left all parameters are in 1 , in the image of the right all parameters are in 50. There is not significant changes in both cases... I am sorry if do not speak well the english language ^_^

That is a V-Ray for SketchUp error. What version do you have installed?

Thanks for this one Pierreden. I've tried the very first version and it worked, but now i get this when i start the plugin:

Error; #<RuntimeError; Can't insert empty component.>

Maybe SU 8 is required?

I don't know if its just me or some other thea user, probably solo can confirm... I get more leaves in thea than the ones visible in sketchup.. this may be a sketchup to thea issue, maybe not.. just thought of sharing it here.
