Hi, On Mac there is an error, you have to change the "." sign for the "," in flylenght, so it'll works fine. In ruby file lines 71 to 75:
"def initialize @flylength = 0,2.m a = Sketchup.read_default("TAK2_FLYTHROUGH","FLYLENGTH","0,2m") @flylength = a.to_l if a #@flylength = 0,2.m @lbtndn = false @cxy = [ 0,0 ] reset"
Another problem on Mac is that you obtain "[" "]" pushing "Option (Alt) +`" and "Option (Alt) ++" if you have assigned on Mac the Option (Alt) key to change the Speed, I can't use Up and Down.

Oxer I don't think that's a mac error as such.
The "." "," issue is generally due to the global settings of your computer, whether it be PC or Mac. I imagine as you are from Spain you have your Mac using the common European system which uses the "," for example 2,5Deg Celsius, whereas a standard English based set up would write it as 2.5Deg Celsius.
Anyway, it's an unfortunate annoyance for all those who have the system set the "wrong way". Feel free to give me a slap if this has nothing to do with your problem.

Thanks for your answer, it's possible that the problem were in the metric units. Is there a solution for the "[" "]" signs on Mac?

I tried this today, it worked well, but I have a suggestion, any way to ass a maintain camera height, say from the native su camera eye height? I do terrains a lot and it would be real cool to not look at the underside when moving across it. Floating Camera has this function, but the rest of the plugin has issues. Thanks Ryan

I downloaded and installed today. Running SU2014, Windows 7. END key did not move down (or any direction). SHIFT key did not appear to move faster.
