That error is strange...

That error is strange... looks like your installation of SU2017 is trying to load stuff from SU8...
"C:/Program Files (x64)/Google/Google SketchUp 8"

Also, the rest of your error message is strange: "C:/Program Files (x64)/Google/Google SketchUp 2017"
Why is it saying "Google SketchUp 2017"? The last Google version of SketchUp was version 8. Since then it's been Trimble.

Right now it looks like your installation of SketchUp isn't working right.

Right now I am using SU2017

Right now I am using SU2017 (x64) latest version, after installing Quadface tools and restart SU2017 I get these error, no other version of SU is installed except SU2017 (x64)

This will probably be easier

This will probably be easier if you start a thread in the SketchUp forums: https://forums.sketchup.com/c/extensions

This extension needs TT_Lib

This extension needs TT_Lib to also be installed (linked in the description). When you clicked Download and it took you to Extension Warehouse it should have taken you directly to TT_Lib's page where you can install it directly.

It's hard to answer without knowing the specifics of this particular issue you are seeing.

Hey Thom

Hey Thom

Seems to be an error, been bussy a few hours yet and can't seem to solve it.
I am on an iMAC OSX El Capitan 10.11.4 ...recently updated about a week ago or so.

Already replaced, enabled, disabled, deinstalled, removed and replaced the TT_Lib2 ext and Quadface ext, mannually from the folder and through the extension warehouse and Sketchucation store and preferences menu..... no succes. The error keeps appearing. The only time it stays away is when I remove the only Quadface ext. Than the error doesn’t occur anymore. Just read some more over this in several threads if there is a solution already, I can’t find it. Despite the error messages, the plugin seems to work normally.

By the way your new SubD plugin ;-) is awsome ….bought it yesterday, much value and functionality for a modest price!!! great work again, as ever.

Kind regards,
Frank

Here’s the error message I’m getting.

I think this is a bug in QFT

I think this is a bug in QFT/TT_Lib which was reported to me recently. Haven't got a fix released, but you can try this from the Ruby Console:

TT::Plugins::QuadFaceTools.settings[:uv_u_scale] = 1.0
TT::Plugins::QuadFaceTools.settings[:uv_v_scale] = 1.0

Damn your good .... it works.

Today came this message when opening the SketchUp 2015. Use the Windows 8.1 Pro version now and was already finding some slow situations. I do not know whether the error has caused this. But only today did the message.

doesnt work for me. the part where you pin the points, i click and they dont attach themselves to the edges at all.

Whenever I hover the mouse

Whenever I hover the mouse over a vertex with the texture selected, I cannot select anything. I also noticed that the edges do not turn red whenever I hover the mouse over them. Could this be fixed?

Hard to tell without seeing

Hard to tell without seeing the mesh. But I guess it's not prepared for quadface tools?
If you can post a sample model at forums.sketchup.com I can have a look at it. Just mention Quadface Tools in the title and I'll see or. (Or you can ping me by using: "@thomthom" in the text.
