[Plugin] FredoTools - v4.5c - 24 Jun 24
-
Fredo,
I stand corrected renaming the 000_AdditionalPluginsFolder.rb did not resolve the problem, but it did expose a different/extended message:
Error Loading File C:/Program Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/__loader.rb
can't convert nil into String
Error Loading File ZLoader__GhostComp.rb
can't convert nil into String -
thank you very much -

Very strange.
Can come from 2 possible causes:-
MaxwellFire modifies the SU model and the texturing (does it?), and then ThruPaint or MaxWellFire script crashes when it is used (could be related to observers)
-
or there is a more traditional plugin conflict
Could you send me a model where you do the rendering, but just before you try to apply the TrhruPaint texturing.

There is no model - just a simple rectangle, then push-pull to a 3D box.

That was just in case MaxwellFire modifies the texture. So just the model after you do the rendering.
Otherwise, this may simply come from a plugin conflict, either at code level, or due to handling of observers in MaxwellFire.

The material was just default sketchup material. This file was rendered with Maxwell:
Buro_11.skp -

[attachment=0:2047gaia]<!-- ia0 -->Buro_11.skp<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:2047gaia]I get NO crash when using ThurPaint.
So it must be another conflict between scripts (There was one for Vray Beta 1.6).
Maybe some other users have found a similar problem.

Fredo,
I have installed Sketchup 2013 Make on a Linux instance and it seems to be working well. Unfortunately I have a problem loading FredoTools 1.2a. The error message I receive is:
Error Loading File C:/Program Files/SketchUp/SketchUp 2013/Plugins/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/__loader.rb
can't convert nil into StringI have tried disabling my other plugins to isolate the cause and then adding them back one at a time and when FredoTools is enabled I start having this problem. I'm happy to assist you in any tracing, since I'm aware that SketchUp itself is not supported on Linux. This is a brand new install and all plugins packages have been downloaded within the past 24 hours.
I am also encountering the same problem in Sketchup 8 on the same machine.
Kind Regards,
Tom
Hi, Tom,
I have the same problem on my nature windows machine and on linux/ubuntu machine through wine. The workaround is very simple. I moved all Fredo6 plugins to default sketchup plugins folder and now all they works as expected. Probably problem occurs on AdditionalPluginFolders.rb level.

Hi fredo.. I´ms sure you and all around are bored of answering the same questions.. but i read thoroughly and couldn't find an answer....
I work on an old PowerPc G5 (pre-Intel) and SketchUp 7 (7.1.6859)
i copy the plugins in the right place
mac hd >library > application support > google sketchup 7 > sketchip > pluginstryed to change names, place them in original folders, change the web browser (downloader as safari was giving funny names), change the un-compressor.. every thing to no luck
Here is an image where u see shaded all the info
thanx for any help in advance...
PD congratulations other plugins i tryed, are fantastic!!

Fredo,
I've got an issue using FredoTools with AdditionalPluginFolders.
The problem is related here with shortcuts for illustration.
Many thanks to look at that !

It seems the issue is in LibFredo6 actually (error in the logging of errors!!). I don't know why you have FredoTools in error. Possibly you may open the Windows > LibFredo6 Settings > View Trace Files... dialog box and check if there is more info (in red).
Anyway, I would suggest the following
- Upgrade to AdditionalPluginFolders 4.2a
- Upgrade to LibFredo6 5.3g (just published).
Then, if you still get the error, could try to drop and replace the attached file Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rb in the directory where you installed my scripts.
Fredo6_!LibFredo6.rbThanks

Thanks for help Fredo !
Here is the "View trace files" :
As you can see, my Fredo6 tools are up to date...
Another question : Fredo6 has created a default parameters folder on the first level of C:/ (visible on the 4th line of the "View trace files").
Is it possible to locate this folder at another place ? -
Fredo,
update of Libfredo6 solved part of the problem but not all :
Here is the message error :
Here is the trace log (only error items) :>>>> 1383119187.795;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__ThruPaint.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__ThruPaint.rb;34 >>>> 1383119187.824;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__RemoveLonelyVertices.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__RemoveLonelyVertices.rb;36 >>>> 1383119187.853;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__MarkVertices.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__MarkVertices.rb;36 >>>> 1383119187.877;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__CountFacesBySides.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__CountFacesBySides.rb;34 >>>> 1383119187.892;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__ReverseOrientFaces.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__ReverseOrientFaces.rb;34 >>>> 1383119187.942;Lib6Core.rb;649; in `load_full_rubies' ?FredoTools 1.2a; ERROR in Loading ruby file FredoTools__ReportLabelArea.rb undefined method `register_plug' for FredoTools;Module - //X/SketchUp/Plugins_Communs/FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12/FredoTools__ReportLabelArea.rb;34ConstructFaceNormal, CurviShear and RevertCurve seem to work fine !

Very very strange.
I would expect that none works or all work.I'll have a closer look
Could you show me the content of the subfolder FREDOTOOLS_Dir_12 (files and dates)

Some of my Fredo plugins need an update now. I've never done this before, so my question is how to update those plugins? Do I uninstall the older versions first and download the newer ones or just download the new version and the plugins are updated automatically in this way? Thanks for any help.

There is no 'uninstallation' of my plugins (as these are just files in folders). So You can safely install the new versions
-
I would suggest that you first install the SCF Plugin Store plugin, if not already done. This is the safest and easiest way to install plugins.
-
Install LibFredo6 first, then the other plugins
-
Once you have installed, you can go to Windows > LibFredo6 Settings... > Purge Obsolete files and delete the files and folders related to the previous versions
