      The problems with this plugin have been resolved. The culprit was the Rayelectron rendering package which contains a renamed Win32API.so file ('Win32API.so' vs 'win32api.so'). Now, onto the next problem...

      The windows.rb has problems with defining 'Window' as a superclass. Given that this is one of the original Sketchup ruby scripts, who's responsible for maintaining it?

          Hi guys,

          I've been having an issue with 000_AdditionalPluginFolders ever since I installed the Developer Tools Plugins that were announced at Base Camp 2012. Is anybody else having this following issue?

          PLUGIN: testuprunner.rb
          FOLDER: C:/Program Files/Google/Google SketchUp 8/Plugins/sketchup-developer-tools/testup/ruby
          ERROR: No such file or directory - test_cases.man

          I've visited the Developer Tool subfolder, but I can't really figure out what's missing.

          Let me know if that isn't enough info!

          Thanks Gents,

          Matt

            hi,
            the file is created at runtime, so is missing until you use it.

            it should work even after the warning,
            alternatively, put dev tools in the 'Tools' folder and avoid the error message when you use additional plugins loader.

            learn from the mistakes of others, you may not live long enough to make them all yourself...

                Fredo,

                This plugin does'nt work anymore after Sketchup's update today 11/1/2013 (Layout asked for it). The ruby is still in the normal plugin-folder but not vissible in the Window-menu.
                How to solve this? Thanks a lot!

                    Hey guys, I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around how to get this error to go away. I've run every test I can in TestUp (that I know how at this point), but I still get this error on every start. I've had no difference when I've placed the Developer Tools into the tools folder.

                    Any thoughts?

                    Thanks, Matt

                      It is strongly advised to upgrade.

                        How about design a "Loader" ?
                        Launch a menu and shift the plugin folder to the one you need then load SU...

                          I think you have the standard Plugin extensions for that.

                            Sorry for my poor Englsh ...
                            Because I hope I can divide my work into some sessions: modeling,texturing, rendering ...etc
                            I am thinking if we can make a "standard plugin" each time that contains only the plugins we need before we launch SU.
                            Actually I am doing this by a batch file now (I know the interface is ugly):

                            \Google SketchUp 8\Plugins
                            \plugins_modeling
                            \plugins_texturing
                            \plugins_vray
                            \plugins_test
                            ------------------- .....etc
                            for example, if I need to do a render work,
                            I run the batch file to rename "plugins" to "plugins_00"
                            and rename "plugins_vray" to "plugins"
                            and call Sketchup.exe
                            after the work, I leave SU, the folder will rename back.

                            I know that is not a ruby issue, but I think maybe it's not a bad idea .. 😄

                              Hey guys, I could use some advice. I removed all my plugins from my folder because I'm reinstalling all of them from scratch (I'm having something create a bunch of help menus and can't pin down the problem). However, after I've removed all plugins from the plugins folder, I still get missing plugin warnings from 000_AdditionalPlugins - even though I don't use it or have it installed on my system. Any idea what's going on?

                                I'm going to guess you're using Windows (Could you please fill out your profile with SU version and OS?) and that you're running into problems with Virtual Store.

                                  I will both update my info (apologies) and try that. Thank you sir! I'll get back to you.

                                  EDIT Ok, it looks like there's a whole bunch of plugins that I had removed saved to the Virtual Store. I'm guessing I need to purge that file, and then re-install the plugins I'm going to use?

                                    Yea, Windows will place files in Virtual Store when you have UAC enabled, I think. I don't have this issue, but I'm running as administrator with UAC disabled because I muck about the system a lot when programming. It's not recommended for regular users to do so.
                                    Instead give yourself full access to the Plugins folder.

                                    When you look in a folder and some files have ended up in Virtual Store there should be a "Compatibility Files" button that does pretty much the same as that utility I linked to.

                                      Thanks Thomthom. Yes, I'm running in an office setup with IT Management, and though they've granted full access to my plugins and installation rights, I'd never heard of VirtualStore until now. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I've never had the issue before, but I always like to know the reason I get errors as well as how to resolve them. Thanks agian mate!
