Calculates can take some times!

I have SU 2017
Can you explain how and where you installed the folders/files?
Do I have to install more or some other extension(s) in order to let FerrariSketch work?
I also get a bunch of error messages:

%(#0000BF)[Error:

Hi all,

For some time I am looking for a plugin that accurately forms a tensile tent structure form.
There is already the Soap Bubble plugin that works for simple tent forms.

There also is a plugin that you can download form http://de.sergeferrari.com/serge-ferrari-sketch-3/ The problem is that it doesn't work with the newer SU versions. Is there somebody in this community that could take a look at the code of the script and do some recoding/debugging so that this plugin also can be used in the newer versions.

Your efforts will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
J-P

May be you could send a mail to Ferrari asking him if could update is plugin or share the code…

I already did but I wanted to throw more "fishing lines" in the sea.
If I got a reply from them I will notify you all.
