SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation
-
我無法裝入我的許可證，它一直顯示我更改了電腦名稱，我已經刪除signature文件無數次仍無法解決問題
-
The error message shows that the signature-file is invalid, usually this is because you've renamed your computer.
It suggests that you erase the signature-file.
It asks if you want to open the folder containing the file.
If you answer Y[es] the folder opens and you can erase the file.
Then you need to reset the license[s] under the Tools > Fred6Collection submenu for that extension > License..., which will then make a new signature-file using the current computer's details... -

The signature-file name contains text warning you not to delete it.
BUT you must delete it if there are problems with its configuration.It's rebuilt to suit the latest set up after redoing the licenses...
Your "The count IF exited" quote is not easy to understand,
Perhaps it's a problem because English is not your first language ?Is there anything odd about your computer's name ?
It should follow the Windows naming recommendations... e.g. no special or foreign characters - this might therefore confuse Ruby when it reads/saves the data ? -

I made a post asking but I think here is where I should be asking my question. Where can I request for my seats on all my fredo plugins to be released? Because I no longer have access to some of the licenses I actived (because of PC formats) and I can't find a place where to release them. Thanks in advance

some licences do not show the release checkbox, is this a bug?
@vanmar have you tried here?

thanks Dave, it's hit and miss, these ones for example don't show the option
ClothWorks
ToolsOnSurface
FredoSpline
RoundCorner
Curviloft
Curvizard -

No, it means either your versions are outdated or Sketchucation Tools is outdated.
Consider that on your https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php page your have activated on 7 separate devices.
Are all these devices running the latest releases? If not then you can't online release if the device holding the seat is not updated. Oly devices running the latest licensing version has online release enabled at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php

say i want to clear all the seats - it is not possible

The option is missing because the device is not running Sketchucation Tools 4.3.0
You have validated licenses on devices that used a version of Sketchucation Tools that didn't have online release at that time.
All devices needs Sketchucation Tools 4.3.0 for it to be releasable at https://sketchucation.com/webshop/my-licences.php
So you need to go to the devices and release the seat or update Sketchucation Tools and Libfredo on those device.
You can't update at an unrelated device and have the online release propagate around to other devices.

I don't understand this at all. I've been using what I thought was the 'free' basic version of round corner for years. Why all of a sudden do I need a licence for it? I'm a pensioner, SKP is just a hobby for me, I can't afford this.

Fredo changed the license for some of his plugins in March 2022:
https://forums.sketchup.com/t/more-fredo6-plugins-becoming-paid-extensions/191090If you use the plugin a lot, approx. 7 USD should not be too much even for a pensioner, right? Fredo has also put a lot of work into the plugins and deserves recognition for it.

perhaps i'm missing something, but it seems to happen with latest SKtools and libfredo (which is what I'm running) - for example I have 2 fredospline seats, one of them activated in january and yet it cannot be released.
shouldn't all plugins have a release checkbox in any case?
-
@cadfather said:

Yes, if every device the activation happened on is using Sketchucation Tools 4.3.0
You've lots of device activations. Different devices. 7 to be accurate.
Can you say for certainty all 7 are currently running the latest Sketchucation Tools? And is any associatted licensed extension also the latest release?

Help us help you. What version of SketchUp are you using? What operating system? Complete your forum profile please.
Do you have the current version of LibFredo6 installed?
-
As Fredo said in this recent post ThruPaint is currently free, but it does need the latest LibFredo version etc to run properly...
