Should I download the .rbz file or the Zipped .rbz file? It depends on what Browser you are using.

If you use Internet Explorer as your browser, it’s best to download the Zipped .rbz file. Then unpack the zipped file and you will obtain the Podium Walker .rbz file.

If you are using Fire Fox or Chrome, download the .rbz file but make sure you context click on the download link and choose Save Link as…

Download and Installing the .rbz Extension.

    1. Download the .rbz file and save it to your download folder.
    2. To download it’s best to right click on the download link and use the option “Save Link As…”if that is available.
    3. After downloading, Open SketchUp and go to SketchUp Preferences. Pick Extensions. Then Install Extensions. SketchUp default file format for extensions is .rbz.
    4. Select PodiumWalker_1_2_x_SUXX_Win_x64.rbz.
    5. Install the Extension automatically. Once this is complete, Podium Walker will be available in the Plugins menu and as an icon tool bar.

Download and Installing the zipped .rbz file.

    Some browsers such as IE will not download .rbz files correctly. These browsers will convert the .rbz to .zip files which is not good. Therefore we have created a .zip file which contains the .rbz file.
    1. Download the zipped .rbz file and save it to your download folder.
    2. Then unzip the .zip file. You should see a PodiumWalker_1_2_x_SUXX_Win_x64.rbz file.
    3. Open SketchUp and go to SketchUp Preferences. Pick Extensions. Then Install Extensions. SketchUp default file format for extensions is .rbz. Select the PodiumWalker .rbz to install the Extension automatically.

Only install 64 bit version for Windows 64. Do not install the 64 bit version on a Windows 32 bit OS. Podium Walker for SketchUp 2015 no longer has a 32 bit Windows version.

Please read the install instruction below to find the difference between the .rbz and the zipped .rbz file.
