i need help, everytime i hit the "skin", "X/Y", "Bub", or "Play" button in the plugins.. the window always shows up, it says "Timelimit finished" so i cannot make the membrane.

how can i fix this?

that means that the plugin has expired. Soap skin has a time limit that requires you to remove the plugin, re-download it, and then re-install it. According to the site, the current release of SSB is set to expire on Apr 10, 2012.

please advise...i can't seem to make this plug-in work. I recently downloaded sketchup 8 -- any compatiblity problems?

[4sketchupgo2school]

I'm able to get it to work fine on SU8. The tool does time out after about 4 months, at which point you need to re-download it and re-install it.

the soap buble skin after i hit enter disappears.. the closed loop of edges remain as it is. Is there any treatment for this glitch or fault?

[Maestreofchaos]

Solved, SoapSkinBubbleTools.rb and SoapSkinBubble folder must go directly into Tools folder

I had pasted the whole decompressed folder...

Not working on Pro8

Followed instructions on website

No soap skin bubble appears in Extensions...

Anyone had this problem?

oh, gizzzz.... i've just found it! nevermind! kisses! :*

[sagitta1515]

what is the plugin that you have installed and adds triangle or splain (is it a splain?), or text to your sketchup?

[Camille Jusi]

I got the tool time limit message too, but t is not even April 10, 2012 yet. What's up with that? So I uninstalled it, redownloaded it, then reinstalled it again. Still having the same problem. Any one know what to do?

[alanthetent]
