    • Tool to automatically create ifcSpaces ?

      Hi everyone, I just wondered if anyone had come across a plugin that would automatically generate volumes from a model corresponding to the "voids" left between object that represent wall, floors and ceilings for example such that we could classify them as ifcSpace objects.
      Currently we do this by hand as it were, which for small projects is not so much trouble, but for larger ones, and ones with relatively complex room shapes for exemple, it's a bit of a hassle...
      Any ideas ?

      Thanks in advance

      OK, good news folks I fixed the problem:

      I got radical and deleted ALL Fredo6 related folders and files from everywhere, then reinstalled all, starting by LibFredo via the SketchUcation toolbar... despite verious error messages, once I restarted SU22 they reworked.
      Fingers crossed that it holds.
      Anyway, thanks all & hope this helps someone sometime.

      Oh, & for good mesure, I tried what you suggested on another thread...
      "If the error persists, then try [re]deleting the C:/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/AppData/Local/LIBFREDO6_DATA_Dir directory - because it might have incorrect permissions from any earlier incorrect installation of SketchUp..."

      & sadly that did not fix the issue.

      TIG thank you for your reply.

      I did all of that on my SU2022 install and now have the same awful popup window as I mentioned before.

      I again tried to reinstall the LibFredo package using both approved methods, and, in desperation, by copying the files from the .rbz to the plugin folder, but on all three attempts, on restarting SU, this damn window pops up saying that "LibFredo is incorrectly installed, remove, <OK>"

      I can't think what has recently changed in order for the whole thing to act this way...

      Maybe it's the version of windows ? it's Win11 Pro 22H2, build 22621.819

    • RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

      oh, & just now on launch of SU 2021 I got this bizarre message popped up in a window:

      "Incorrect installation of LibFredo6 - Remove rb files" with an "ok" button that i did not press !

      This is bizarre as I had correctly installed the rbz...

      Luckily on the SU2022 launch I have not had this window

      ...and when I try one of the curviloft tools, I get this error:

      It's a bit frustrating as these tools have worked well in the past and are such help, hence I had no issues about buying a licence when that became necessary...

    • RE: SCFLicense: Extension Licensing on Sketchucation

      Hi, I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this post, so apologies in advance if this needs moving.

      Despite having been able to use various of Fredo6's superb tools in the past, including after having bought a licence on both SU2021 & 22, I am currently experiencing problems...

      I check my licence status, let's say for Joint push pull, & it says i'm ok, but wen I try to use the tool, nothing works.
      & Yes, I've updated to the latest versions of both plugin & LibFredo, plus my SketchUcation plugin is also the latest version. I've tried on both 21 & 22, to no avail.
      This is also true for Curviloft and Tools on surface etc...

      Anyone have any ideas (BTW, the old free version of Joint PP works for some reason)

      Thanks in advance.

      to use SketchFX for animations you will need SketchFX Ex[/quote]

      yes, that's what I downloaded, the demo version of SketchFX EX & it's that the doesn't seem to be compatible with animator... the real bummer is I can't seem to send a message to the people that do that software... some kind of javascript error on their "contact" page ๐Ÿ˜ž

    • RE: Animator and Rendering Software (for developers)

      Hello, I've downloaded the trial version of SketchFX & it looks great plus from it's own interface I can export a video using the classic sketchup scenes..
      The glitch for me is that when I set up an animation using your fabulous Animator, from there I cannot get it to export a video correctly rendered by SkFX... & yet an unrendered video is possible from Animator ?
      BTW I have checked, I have the latest versions of Animator & the ffmpeg.exe
      Is this because I have the demo version of SkFX, or what might be going on here please ?
      Very frustrating as both Animator & SkFX are great, but I really would like for them to work together as I thought that i was possible...

      Thanks in advance,
      PT
