I am on Sketchup Pro 2015 on Windows 10

I am no longer able to use Sketchup as the screen constantly jumps smaller and smaller smaller.

I can pull the image back up with my 3d mouse but it immediately starts to shrink.

Hi! Curious about this plugin but can't get it started.
I'm on SketchUp 2016, 16.1.1449 64 bit, Windows 10 Version 1511 (10586. 494)

Tried the .exe-setup and the .rbz, but it ends with the same error.

micceo, I had this problem! The solution was to use the 2015 Sketchup folder not the 2016 folder!

re: /AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2016/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/

Had to be: /AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2015/SketchUp/Plugins/MSPhysics/

This was for Sketchup 15 PRO!

thanks Anton, I have not seen that menu bar.

now how do I "open MSPhysics UI" I am trying to follow the scripting tutorial.

I have a good install in C:\Users\Ralph\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2016\SketchUp\Plugins.

Sketchup starts with no complaints.

Now what do I do?

I do not see MSPhysics in my extensions list.

I copied it to my 2015 folder and now I see it in my Extensions list.

How do I get started?

I will back over this entire thread once again.

At least now I have a chance of doing something.

Thanks Anton for all of your help!!

Anton, I have tried the installer twice. It runs and Windows complains about it but I override it's objections and it seems to run fine, no errors reported, BUT no MSphysics folder is made in the Plugins folder.

faust07, that is great, how much time did it take to do the bird flapping it's wings and following the path?

Finally I got the win64 folder downloaded completely, I got 7-zip to work.

Now:

I am so sorry to be such a bother, I do not even know if I will understand how to use MSPhysics once I get it working it seems kinda complicated, but really neat in what I have seen.

This is so irritating.

I cannot run 7-zip I have had it installed and have used it with Windows 8 but it does not run in Windows 10.

Win Zip apparently is not extracting all of the files specifically the win64 folder.

I can go to GitHub and see the win64 files but I do not know how to download the individual files.

When I download from the PlugIn store all I get is a .rbz file not the zip file.

Does that go in the Plugins folder?

Thanks Anton,

Well I hopefully thought I'd try again.

the error at least looks a little different.

Windows 10

faust07, Thanks for posting, the accumulation does not grow, is that a shortcoming of MSPhysics. or something you control?

Yes, msp_lib_no_sdl.so is there.

The download link to the latest version is in the first post of this topic.

Thanks,

I have main.rb in the C:\Users\Ralph\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins folder.

and in the MSPhysics foder.

Thanks Anton_S, where is the "latest" version? Just to be sure.

Thanks again for the help!! Oh I am using Windows 10.

Sorry for the delay in answering I do not use this computer everyday.

I downloaded from your reference once again and unzipped directly to the plugins folder.

Now:

Thanks for the replies

re: two MSPhysics:
C:\Users\Ralph\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins\MSPhysic

C:\Users\Ralph\AppData\Roaming\SketchUp\SketchUp 2015\SketchUp\Plugins\MSPhysic\RubyExtension\MSPhysics

did you extract MSPhysics_0.7.0 into the plugins folder properly? I "think" that is the problem.

"Error Loading File MSPhysics/main.rb
Could not find included file 'MSPhysics/main.rb'

I have main.rb in both MSPhysics folders but it is not found!!
