Hope to have the licenses out soon.

Hello.
Right, nice plugin You decide to do!!!

Enough time has passed ...but nothing appeared. Tell in 2013 or 2014 will be the Architectural Plugin) PlusSpec ? Can now provide BETA version for public testing and You will have more feedback on this plugin.
Sorry for my bad English.

Hi Aleks, we have released beta in Australia and will be releasing in the US & UK later this year. PlusSpec has so much more going on than just generating 3d graphics for interpretation. I wish we could click our fingers and make everything compatible for the rest of the world. The reality is every country has a different way of doing things and different construction methods.
We have gone past the point where a rectangular prism can be a floor a slab or a roof with material on it. Plusspec actually knows what things are and interacts with them according to their use.
Just so you know we did not post any articles here they have been posted by others and we try and reply with the most relevant information at that time... We do our best to comment where we can although daily key word searching the net would only reduce the speed at which we get the software to all of you guys. There is a lot of information going out on a daily basis for our existing Beta users and I hope to have you as one as soon as we can.
I have been in contact with our friends at Sketchucation and we are sorting out the best way to get the information to you as soon as it is available.
Thanks for the post.
regards Andrew.

What to do, how to establish?

Aleks,
You will probably get a quicker response by contacting PlusSpec directly at https://plusspec.com/support/

NO not got (there's always a long wait for the answer), why would I want to ask here if the answer was there?!

Tandem Can you help me?

[Krisidious]

Did you login to plusspec and restart sketchup?

Sorry Aleks, I do not have PlusSpec, I was just thinking that there are not that many users that use PlusSpec on this site and that is why I suggested you also try to ask for help there.

How long have you been waiting for a response on their website?

Did you try Krisidious' suggestion?

[utiler]

Aleks, I've PM'd the guys from PlusSpec to follow up this thread. Karel is right;; best to post directly to the PlusSpec forum if you're having issues. I always get a response from there....

[aadbuild]

Igor we always get back to our users. We have encountered this problem once before yet can not replicate on the 30 plus computers with the same spec as yours in our office. Do you have time to contact us today? we will actually log into your computer remotely and do our best to fix it. It would be great to know why 1 in 1000 computers does this and you could really help us. In return we will extend your license for free.

I am talking with the developer as I type and he is asking what the system language is set to ?
And what Language of Sketchup did you buy?

Could you please go to the forum, I pay someone full time to check it yet I can not pay 30 people to check every forum every minute of the day.

[aadbuild]

This problem appears to come when a Sketchup user is using a none English version. We are yet to confirm but this seams to be the issue from testing in our office.
I am sorry to say the Plusspec currently works with the English version of Sketchup. We will be looking into this more. I hope that helps.
Also Igor I noticed that you do not have a paid version of PlusSpec yet you have used a trial version sometime ago. This is where you problem stems from.

Hello.

You speak about what trial version, whence you have an information that I use the trial version? Do not mislead people!

There was no day that I managed to start yours "Plusspec" for check! And you here speak about any use...???!

Has passed TWO weeks (with 1/23/2015 in the 2/9/2015) at you on correction of errors...!
And even now I cannot EVEN TRY yours "Plusspec"!

Here it I have sent in yours those support:
Your plug-in PlusSpec was established now. BUT is not present what possibility to check up it on working capacity!

At attempt to make activation it gives out an error and blocks all further actions, does not allow to do what changes - though how many to reboot Sketchup!
Here an error code:

***%(#0000BF)[Machine: Could not load Machine ID. Please close Sketchup and try again.

Activate/Re-activate License]***

To have to do only full removal of it PlusSpec.

What now yet so? That further...?
The answer while is not present, as always, it is necessary to have patience... That it to wait.

Watched this overnight.... PlusSpec official release!

Go play.
