mike m oz Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 There appears to be a problem with third party plug-ins that dont have a suffix as part of their name. All plug-ins of that type were deleted in my upgraded installation. I have tried adding them back and also tried adding what I think is the correct suffix but they still don't get recognised. Bit annoying. Quote Link to comment
marek.dk Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 ...quiet annoying. But what suffixes have you tried? .vso .vst .vwplugin .vsm .vwobject .vwlibrary Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I have had a clarification from NNA on this. Where the plug-ins have been developed with the SDK then they have to be re-compiled under Xcode for 12.5 on Mac to work. It would appear that the Vectorbits plug-ins are SDK developed ones and that is why they no longer work in VW 12.5. I have emailed Vectorbits on this. Quote Link to comment
Guest Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 (edited) Yes, all SDK plugins have to be updated to use the modern executable file format so that they can work with VectorWorks and Intel Macintosh computers. Edited September 12, 2006 by Lyndsey Darryl Ferguson Quote Link to comment
Gytis Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I suppose this is why the interiorCAD plug-in also will not work until later. Quote Link to comment
sparchitect Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 thing I pretty much can't work without: VB Vector Move things I use all the time, but can get along without temporarily: VB Prefs Menu, VB Stretch Others I use: align, class menu, layer menu. I recomend we all donate a bit to the developer, help him justify spending the time to recompile his excellent work...I'm going to do that now. http://www.vectorbits.com/VB_intro.html Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Manuel is working on recompiling his tools for VW 12.5 and he expects to be able to post the VW 12.5 versions by the end of the month. Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 (edited) Mac versions available as of today: 3rd October 2006. The Windows versions should be soon. More plug-ins and an option to save 40% by buying the VectorBit's Plugins Collection Edited October 3, 2006 by mike m oz Quote Link to comment
