I had a problem with it not loading sketchyphysics, threw an error.  went to 
START-
ALL PROGRAMS-GOOGLE SKETCHUP 6- UNINSTALL OR REPAIR.  It worked fine after I 
repaired sketchup

i had same problem this morning: 

Error Loading File SketchyPhysics.rb
undefined method `file_loaded?' for main:Object

my configuration is:

sketchup 7
sketchyphysics 3
wine-1.1.31

i tried the "repair method" without luck, after that i tried this little hack:

* copy sketchup.rb from Tools folder to Plugins folder
* edit sketchyphysics.rb from Plugins folder and add this line at the begining 
of the
file: load "sketchup.rb"

now it works like a charm!!

sorry about my poor english skills!!!

Great job, i love your plugin!

You are awesome, fernandogalin! You totally just solved my problem. Thank you 
so much. I am off to try making 
something with SketchyPhysics.

Another potential fix, if the above solutions don't work for you:

Edit sketchyphysics.rb in any plain text editor.

Move the line (~106):
SketchyPhysics.doLoad(SketchyPhysics.getLoadVersion())

to immediately above the line (~65):
 if(not file_loaded?("SketchyPhysics.rb") )

This seems to work fine with SketchUp 7.1 & SP3X on Mac OSX, though it's 
possible it introduces problems I have not noticed yet.

Neither of the above fixes worked (OSX, Sketchup 8, Sketchyphysics 3). Still 
trying... My error message is: 

Error Loading File sketchyphysics.rb
dlopen(/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 
8/SketchUp/plugins/SketchyPhysics3/sdl/SDL_Special.dylib, 9): no suitable image 
found.  

Did find:
    /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/SketchyPhysics3/sdl/SDL_Special.dylib: unknown required load command 0x80000022

I believe I may have compiled the SDL special library in the released version 
of SketchPhysics for the mac requiring the 10.5 API so if you haven't upgraded 
to Snow Leopard then the SDL binary won't be recognized on your system. I think 
I sent a new compile to Chris that will work on 10.4 and up but it is getting 
harder and harder to get backwards compatibility so best bet is to get to Snow 
Leopard (minimum) for SP3 to work. As has been the case for awhile I don't 
build a binary that supports PPC anymore.
Lion changed the API for midi so on Lion you have to make an edit to the 
Midiator driver file "dls_synth.rb" to get SP3 to load at all. Add a dlload 
statement to the dls_synth file to load the AudioUnit framework and everything 
works fine. Just clone the line that loads AudioToolbox but substitute AudioUnit

Agreed! We all need a solution for this to run in OSX Lion!  Please help! We 
beg you.

Line 106 of the program "sketchphysics.rb". It should be located wherever you 
installed sketchyphysics. The default location for Windows is C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Google\Google Sketchup 8\plugins. If you can't find it, do a search of 
your computer for sketchyphysics.
