John, that would take some time to compile and probably for a very narrow audience.
Maybe I'll get some time in the new year to put something out there but not this side of the new year.
Until then my best advice is practice, practice, practice.

Start here:
Thanks a lot Rich Sir! I'll surely look forward to your tutorials. . I don't know but I guess there are your tutorials on youtube with Red light sketchup on a brown background for various plugins.
And Oliver, you've just banged a laser beam sort of thing on a narrow audience. That doesn't mean Rich sir that I don't need your tutorials.

Has my computer been hacked or something? When I went to the app store it had someone else's email address!
Allow WebGL is enabled but still nothing. I don't get the error messages any more, the animation thing just wont start although I can see the buttons.

It's OK I sorted the problem by updating my browser and OS to Yosemite. But now my Sketchup keeps crashing as soon as I open it. Swapped one problem for another. Why don't they just allow you to keep using the same bloody OS, nothing was wrong with the last one!!
Anyone else seen Yosemite conflicts with SketchUp 8?

Use Windows eh.. Hehehe! But I know mac is for people who are very very inclined towards design, sleekness and aesthetics. Like me.. . When I'll earn enough money, I'm gonna buy a mac

everyone that uses it...
there are a couple of 'fixes' if you can live without 'fonts' and 'Outliner'
I've got a script if you want...
v15 works very well...

johnYes, please share the fix. I've got a job I need to finish on SU and I just can't open it.
This is why I don't like updating things!

you need to be alble to open it to apply any fix...
so open Terminal.app
and paste inopen -F /Applications/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/Sketchup.app
that should open a new model...
close Outliner and never open again...
don't use fonts for anything...close and try to open from a skp file...
The script I have will rename those, so they can't ever open, but try this first and get back asap...
if you want to PM your phone number I can talk you thru it...

When I paste that into terminal, it opens SU but then it closes straight away. It loads some plugins and then quits before I can do anything.
Could it be a plugin causing this problem?
Thanks for your support
-
most likely a renderer...
try this onecd / Applications/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/SketchUp.app/Contents/MacOS/SketchUp -DisableRubyAPI YES
if it runs, it's likely to be a plugin...
john -
sketchup quit unexpectedly
aagaghghhh!!!

I deleted the old Twilight Render plugin and now SU opens....but obviously without any plugins.
But......I tried the original code you gave me and SU still crashes?

once you restart SU you should have your Plugins back...

that should be reusable, the -F just means start fresh...
normally if something fails from Terminal, you close the window, and open a new one...
otherwise your not sure if the first has finished...
EDIT:
you can try -n as well, I use both in some of my plugins...@unknownuser said:
-F Opens the application "fresh," that is, without restoring windows. Saved persistent state is lost, except for Untitled documents. -n Open a new instance of the application(s) even if one is already run- ning.
-
So...I'm kinda lost.
I can only open SU using the "disable ruby api" code.
I can't restart SU to see my plugins, it just crashes unless I use the above code.
-
it is possibly only one ruby that causing it,
to start have a look in tools and rename any that aren't from SU
open -R /Library/Application\ Support/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/Sketchup/[Tt]ools
you could rename Plugins folder while your there and make sure the SU rubies function.
mv /Library/Application\ Support/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/SketchUp/plugins /Library/Application\ Support/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/SketchUp/plugins_copy
you can also check for other plugins...
open -R ~/Library/Application\ Support/Google\ SketchUp\ 8/Sketchup/[Pp]lugins

Thanks, I will have a look when I'm back on my SU computer. Really strange how this is happening!
