      Sorry - I am looking for the imperial version of housebuilder updated. Was able to download the metric version w/out issue. Would love the imperial version w/out right click error noise.

      Thanks

        I use the imperial one regularly with no issues. Try this one:

        http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=185

        It should work.

            Find every '.rb' file in the set you downloaded, then using Notepad.exe or a similar plain-text editor open them and use Find+Replace for UI.beep >>> #UI.beep - the added '#' will stop the beeping beeps beep!! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

              THANK YOU MIGHTY TIG! You have lessened my ulcer and prevented me from pulling what little hair I have left out...Even a computer dolt like myself was able to follow your simple instruction! - the offending rb seemed to be a 51kb file at the bottom of the hb folder. Now - I noticed that the metric version has a nice little material list packaged with it...

                Ahh, terribly sorry. I didn't understand the problem. Yes, that beeping is horrific. Glad you guys were able to figure it out,

                  In the version I downloaded there is no beep to be found in the rb text.

                      very strange: the two lines in red were not written by me! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ it is not nothing I would not write but in fact I did not do. would the editor present himself (herself)?

                          I do not think so. hackers do not write messages like that. my guess is that some of the moderators did it and forgot to sign the edit.

                              ๐Ÿคฃ for that, i just submitted the forum URL to Virus Total to see if there is any kind of disturbance. and the result doesn't show any kind of thing that might be serious. ๐Ÿ˜„

                                no problem. I knew it had to be you or chris. it looked like benign hacking anyway.

                                  Seems I opened a can of worms I see Tig removed the beep that I mentioned. I removed original HB plugin and replaced it with metric and used the user friendly mac version. error loading script So I'm guessing ( I usually know just enough to get myself in to trouble) it's a problem with the ruby ext finding the HB folder mines in MacHD>Library not in User> Library I don't know if that helps or makes things worse.

                                    House Builder and House Builder Extension both make beeps. I found that House Builder Extension by D. Bur uses the same "House Builder" code. So when you install house builder extension, a copy of house builder .rb's get put in the "HouseBuilder" folder. I found the ui.beep code in the HouseBuilder folder, in the HouseBuilderTool.rb file, I changed ui.beep to #ui.beep in this file, and moved it down to the main plugin folder (over writing the other housebuildertool.rb file that got installed with housebuilder.

                                    If you just modify the file in the plug in folder, housebuilder extension will still beep because by default it uses the one in the housebuilder folder.

                                      I cannot see much understandable text in metric version.
                                      So cannot try to edit it. It shows sanskrit language perhaps.
