both using the old way of just putting in the plugins folder and running the auto install from within plugin store, also updated to the latest versionā¦osx 10.8, macbook pro, Sketchup8Pro
any help greatly appreciated

You seem to have FreeScale still present in your plugins. This is a very old version of FredoScale. I suggest you remove the subfolder and rb file.

love love love this plug in.
the only thing that would make it even easier for me.
when I drag the !AdditionalPluginFolders.rb to different computers I have to set up the file paths each time.
we have 4 folders of plug into load depending on needs.
Is there a pref/config file I need to copy across as well so that the paths are
For this and other great plugins a big donation coming your way for all your amazing work.

Thanks for your kind words.
The alternate directories are stored in registry, not in a config file. So I am afraid you need to key in the directories again when moving from computer to computer.Fredo

What we did in the office was find the registry file and created one for 2013/2014 and put it on the server. Each time we need to install SKP and !AdditionalPluginFolders on a new computer, all we have to do is double click the registry for the correct version which then installs the correct path for the !AdditionalPluginFolders to find the other plugins.

Hello,
I had a suggestion.
Is it possible to integrate AdditionalPluginsFolders script with the sketchucation plugins manager so that the ruby scripts in the additional folders can be updated via the manager just like it finds the ones in the default plugin folder?
That would make life much much better.
Thanks.

The newest version of the SketchUcation PluginStore tool [v2.6.2 on limited beta-test release] has that already built in.
When you save with AutoInstall it spots your Additional Plugins folder[s] and asks if you want to install into there [it has done so for a long while].
Now when Updating Plugins it looks to see where each Plugin that is being updated is currently installed and it installs the Plugin into the appropriate folder - the Updater's closing dialog shows the installation location[s]. -
I found a bug in the current version of AdditionalPluginFolders: On line 281 you call LibFredo6.log "True load: #{basename}" without checking whether LibFredo6 is installed. If it isn't you get an error when SketchUp starts up (if a file of the relevant type is being loaded). This line needs to be enclosed in an if defined?(LibFredo6.log) check.

Well spotted. I will fix and republish.

I have a problem at loading LibFredo6 with its tools in SU 15. Details in enclosed *.pdf

Looks like you have NOT updated the version of the Lib, or perhaps some of the Extensions that use it.
Can I suggest that you download the latest versions of all of Fredo's RBZs from the PluginStore and install them.Or alternatively use the SketchUcation PluginStore tool to AutoInstall them.
Then restart SketchUp to complete the changes.
See if the error remains...
