Hello

See image attached below

I am operating Rhino 5.5.4 on Mac OS High Sierra.

Many thanks

Hi welcome,

Honeybee tool load error on Mac

Hi, Check whether you followed all these instructions: HONEYBEE Install Radiance to C:\Radiance by downloading it from this link and running the exe.

Install Daysim 4.0 for Windows to C:\DAYSIM by downloading it at this link and running the exe. If that link is not accessible, please try this link.

Thanks for your reply.

I will have a look.

The legacy honeybee shown the screenshot does not work on Mac. However, the latest Ladybug Tools 1.0 that was released a couple of weeks ago is completely Mac-compatible:

Ladybug Tools for Grasshopper 1.0.0 Release

FYI, you should really upgrade your OS. High Sierra is too old to work with the latest dependencies that Ladybug Tools uses.

Continuing the discussion from Honeybee - runtime error?:

Hello,

Following the installation from ladybug tools for grasshopper, I am still getting the same runtime error message as previously. The first part of the download works with python installed and extracted in folder successfully however it is just the second part coming up with error:

Runtime error (ImportException) : No module named fcntl.
Traceback.
line 430,
line 46,

Thanks
