More Fredo6 plugins becoming paid extensions

The payment page says perpetual liscence, means one time pay for the plugin, but no details about how we are covered or not in case of updates.

Licensing is independent from the download and upgrade of the extension. so you can upgrade at will. Similarly, it is independent from the version of Sketchup, past and future.

Dear Fredo,
I just purchased the bundle pack, and received the liscences.
Your contribution, just like the other devs, has been phenomenal and I feel blessed for souls like u exist and make things simpler and better.
Thanks a lot,
Starting my use of the paid plugins.

Regards,
Shomit

Good afternoon! Curviloft stopped working correctly. I reset the settings to the default settings and now I get an inscription that the trial period expired in December.
I live in Ukraine, we are at war ((I hoped that I could buy plugins after the end of the war, because without them, dear Fredo, work in SketchUp is completely different (. But I can’t afford to buy now.
I wish you all peace and health! This is the most important thing in life!

I'm so glad that Fredo is finally getting paid for his brilliant tools! I bought every one that I hadn't already purchased immediately, updated them all, but when I go to enter my paid-for license info in the contextual drop down menu for each of the tools, nothing happens when I click on "License", so I can't enter the info. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is it because I'm still using SU2021 (waiting for a new computer this month)? I doubt it, but I can't think of anything else. Thanks in advance for clearing this up for me. As is pretty standard among SU users, I can't do my work without these incredibly essential tools.

Make sure you have the latest version of the Sketchucation Extension Store tool installed.

Thanks, Dave, I'm always amazed by how you respond to everyone, even when some of these inquiries can be a little tedious to non-newbies. You're a kind, cool guy.

I did, in fact, make sure that I had the latest Sketchucation Extension Store tool installed...(v4.2.4) and double-checked every tool for its latest version. Still it's a no go. I just can't figure out what could be causing nothing to happen when I try to input my license info on all Fredo's tools. I just tried again to input license info for Tools on Surface and I was surprised to actually get a response/message: you have to have Extension Store v3.1 or above installed, (which I had) but I doubled checked again just to insure that I had v4.2.4. (which was noted at the top of the Extension Store window). Then I decided to try "reinstalling" 4.2.4 version of Extension Store and when I tried again to input at the License button in the pulldown of the tool, now, instead of any sign of activity, AGAIN nothing. I'm totally out of ideas.

Thanks, Dave,

You're quite welcome.

I guess since you've updated to the latest Sketchucation Extension Store, the next thing I would do is quit SketchUp and do a power off reboot. Then start up again and try. Wouldn't hurt to clear internet caches, too.

Could you open the Ruby console to see if there are error messages.

My guess would be that since everything is so messed up, perhaps I should go to the plugins folder, remove all of the paid, non-working Fredo Tools (from the Fredo Collection) and then reinstall them? and maybe Libfredo6 too? I don't want to make more of a mess here than it already is...so I'll await your advice, Fredo. Thank you so much in advance

"Licensing Process
You have 2 steps to license an extension
1.Purchase the license on Sketchucation. After login and payment, you receive by email a purchased license file, which you should store on your computer in a safe place. This is your proof of paid license. The mail is sent instantly in most cases, but this can take longer, up to 24 hours.
2.Validation of the license. This is done from within a Sketchup session. Basically, you activate the purchased license to your computer.

The process and dialog to perform these steps can be accessed from the menu item "License..." in the menu of the extension." > When I do that, nothing happens…What can I do ?

I've got the same issue. I think you need to look for errors in the Ruby console. (See Fredo's comments to me above) "Could you open the Ruby console to see if there are error messages."

You too have an older OS; I think that's where he was going in his trouble-shooting...

A link to great comments posted to his YouTube channel (TheSketchUpEssentials) last week by Justin Geis re: Fredo's indispensable tools! Thanks Justin, you're so right.

Try installing the latest version of the SketchUcation Toolset [v4.2.5] - publish recently...
This has some tweaks to address issues with older MAC set ups...

You're the man, TIG. Thank you so much for this suggestion. It worked perfectly and Fredo's Collection of tools now work for me and are all validated.
