Take a look at this post and download the revised script and you should be good to go. The link to the script is in the post at the top of the thread.

Awesome, thanks!
There is one interesting thing: The plugin won't work on my PC if i copy the examples.dat on my desktop. If I copy it anywhere else, it works just fine, but locating it on the desktop just reproduces the "nothing happens" error it reported above...
EDIT: Some further testing revealed that the plugin can't handle umlauts in directory names (my user account contains a German umlaut). I created test directories with and without umlauts and this error seems quite reproducible.

Open the Ruby Console before you try to import and post back any error.

This is a limitation of the Ruby version that SketchUp ships with. On PC, SketchUp Ruby can not handle any files or folders with non-ASCII characters. The only workaround is for the user to ensure the file and path contains only ASCII characters.

Hi,
I'm just about to release a new version with some improvements, but thomthom is right: avoid local characters in pathes.

I have gotten cloud to work for me in the past. I even wrote a tutorial to use to teach landscape architecture students how to create a surface from data they gather in the field. But alas it doesn't want to work for me now.
I have downloaded Didier's latest version (Cloud67) and installed it. The first menu sees the file and then I click on the origin to create the surface. Nothing happens after that. The Ruby console reports the following error:
Error: #<TypeError: nil can't be coerced into Float>
(eval):1587:in*' (eval):1587:indraw_geometry'
(eval):1584:ineach' (eval):1584:indraw_geometry'
(eval):1465:in `onLButtonUp'
(eval):1584Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi John,
Cloud67 isn't the latest version, here you can try with 71:

Tell me if it works.

Didier,
Thanks, you have come through for me again. Cloud71 works like a champ.
I just read through the revised documentation. Nice job. I appreciate how much time it takes to write something like that.
Regards,

Hi foudegrat,
Here is the triangulated MNT (in centimeters) done with cloud_v8.
CSV file is OK, no problem when importing. Don't know why it bugged on your side
I suggest you should use the latest version of cloud: http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=777 if you have SU8 or http://rhin.crai.archi.fr/rld/plugin_details.php?id=678 if you have SU7.Regards,

Thanks a lot
I have the good plugin, I install it 3 days ago..
