SelectSkyMTX runtime error

Hi all,

First of all, thank you for an amazing software.

I am running into some problems with the SelectSkyMTX component. See attached figure.

I tried manually doawnloading the gendaymtx.exe and putting it in the c:/ladybug as you suggested here: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/ladybug/forum/topics/gencumulati…

but that didn’t make any difference for me. Any ideas of what might be causing this problem for me?

Try to put it ALSO in C:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\Ladybug

It may be somehow related to writing permissions in your directories.

Maybe this will help.

-A.

Hi Abraham, thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately this did not work for me. In fact, there was already a gendaymtx.exe there. I tried deleting it and placing another gendaymtx component there, but that didn’t work either.

Have you tried to update all components to the last version in Github?

Thanks, I was just doing that when I came back to the discussion and saw your reply. This worked for me, i.e. I manually updated all the HB and LB UserObjects from Github. Thanks Abraham for taking the time to look into my problem!

Glad that this fixed it. I am not sure what the original issue was. How old were your Ladybug components before you updated Orn?

Hi Chris. I downloaded the components from food4Rhino around mid September. I thought it was maybe a firewall issue at the office, but I checked that and the firewall wasn’t blocking anything related to Rhino/Python/Grasshopper/LB/HB.

“How old were your Ladybug components before you updated Orn?”

I know what you meant but I just read it differently and made me laugh loud! Very nice question.
