Problems loading kangaroo and meshmachine

I have installed the latest version of grasshopper v. 0.9.0.75 . I have problems loading up the above as shown in the screencapture.

I do not see any blocking problems when I right click on the relevnt files.

Many thanks

Hi William,

Which version of Plankton do you have installed? It needs to be the one that came with the MeshMachine download - replacing earlier versions of the file.

HI Daniel

I downloaded the files from your posting as shown. I have the latest Rhino service release as well.

Many thanks

Have you closed and restarted Rhino?

Do you also have the latest Kangaroo installed?

Your components folder should then contain the above files as well as PlanktonGh.dll

Yep, I have closed and restarted rhino many times.

T have the latest version of Kangaroo in the libraries subfolder

Many thanks

I gather from the food4rhino forum, that in the past someone had the same problem whereby it could not find the lib file. None of the files in the library are blocked so not sure what else I can try. Wonder whether a workaround was eventually found?

Regards

Are all the other Kangaroo and Plankton components working normally?

For example, does the "Reciprocal" component work, and "DeconstructPlankton"?

Will check it out tomorrow when I go back to work. I do not recall seeing any plankton components. Are they within the kangaroo panels?

Nope the reciprocal structure component does not work. It comes out with 'There is one unrecognised object in the file' message when I try to use it.

Also I cannot find the DeconstructPlankton component.

Many thanks

William
