Ha! Too simple. That's it, thanks!

We are actually doing a favor to any users who were having problems installing v2015 in its initial format, and to the tardy SketchUp/Trimble guys - by announcing their updated version, which has been available since the end of last week, but which Trimble have failed to publicize thus far !
The issue was not installer crash - it was a crash upon launching SketchUp once it had been installed. This was happening on certain custom locations such as root of a drive or unicode paths. The patch prevent the crash and let SketchUp work in the root of a drive. Though installing to unicode paths will still fail to load the Ruby StdLib so some extensions might not work.

does 'check for update' work?
or is it not in that pipeline yet?
johnIt won´t be pushed to existing users like most of our normal maintenance releases has been. This is because if you where affected you would not have been able to update because SketchUp would crash upon launch. If you where able to start SketchUp then you have no need for this update.
This is more of a hotfix than a maintenance release. -
@tt
so the advice for us to pass on to those who crash on first start-up, should be to...
submit the bug-splat for the download link?
or
simply re-download?

Glad that's been clarified - elsewhere I was sure someone said it was a crash when installing M0, rather than a BugSplat when starting M0...So you don't need M1 unless you were having problems starting M0.
Of course unless you submitted a splat-report for M0, then you won't learn of M1's existence unless you read this post, or you decide to try downloading the installer again - but why would you? - with no announcement you'll expect it to be the same as the one you had already - so you'll just remain pissed-off with SketchUp and bemoan the lack of an update - which is actually there, but which has been secretly launched, so you haven't found out about it...
The Release Notes are still confusingly out of step, for anyone who decides to check their version against those... versions are shown for M0 [15.0...] not M1 [15.1...]
-
I hate problems (duh!), but so far 2015 has been well worth dealing with any that have popped up (and there have been surprisingly few for such a major rebuild)
Yay Trimble Team, thanks for all your hard work (take tomorrow off for a job well done
)Now I'll take off my cheerleader outfit and go back to bed
hope that didn't excite anybody

The first v2015 Maintenance Release M1 is now out.
If you download the appropriate installer from the usual SketchUp pages, then you will find it's now 15.1...
But currently Trimble have not been able to update their Release Notes which still speak of 15.0...
I understand that the main changes were made to fix issues experienced by a few PC/MAC users who could not install 15.0... without a crash ! and to fix another rare crash with some users when trying some Layout fly-outs...

Thanks for the heads up!

Interesting - my version still says 15.0 and when I clicked on the Check for Updates link, it says I have the most current version.........

This update [M1 -- 15.1...] is more in the nature of a 'hotfix'...
[Says Trimble]
So it does not register as an update if you check from within SketchUp 2015.
Their logic is... if you get to the point where you can check for an update within SketchUp v2015, then it has not done a BugSplat as it opened - so you don't need the update !
If you already have v2015 loading and working OK then 15.0... is fine - no need to update !
If you have BugSplats when running v2015 then download and install 15.1... from the ../downloads/all link I already provided in an earlier post... -

I will continue having fun with what I have....

johnJust instruct them to download M1. We identified the bug so we're not in need of the crash data for that bug for M0 any more.
The BugSplat message is a convenience for those that do submit a splat - saves them from contacting support.@hellnbak said:

You can install and use differing versions of SketchUp on a computer. You can not install both the 32-bit and 64-bit version of SketchUp 2015. So if you are using a version earlier than 2015, you can install 2015 64-bit without affecting your current version.
My desktop is 64 bit but laptop 32 both Windows 7. I use desktop mostly and laptop to show customers at the job. Can I install 64 at home and 32 on laptop without any sharing issues? Any benefits? Is that even an option when I purchase Pro for my 2 computers?

The 2015 license is independent of the bitness (and operating system), as is the file format. You can save a file in any install of SketchUp 2015 and open in another SketchUp 2015.

It's a legend that 64bits gives better perfs.
Although, 2015 performs better when creating a lot of faces at once.

How do we kill this legend? It caused a roaring debate before SU 2015 went 64-bit, and here it is back again!

563 Faceswhat do your stats say with 'show nested components' enabled?
i have a feeling the model is much (much!) heavier than 1700 edges..
are those 3D trees in your image?
