Tight spaces between road edges have always been difficult to deal with in Instant Road Nui. Version 3.63 offers reliable methods to model such areas when using either the Road from Faces or Road from Centerline methods.

I just uploaded Instant Door and Window version 2.0. The new features are 2d door symbols and an option to cut the wall opening instead of using component cutting behavior. This can make sections look better - especially when using the new solid fill section feature in Su2018.

If you use Architectural units with OS Sierra, I have been unable to get (") and (') characters to work when used with any versions of Sketchup. The latest versions of my extensions allow input of feet and inches without these characters. The following input lengths should work with OS Sierra when using Architectural units.
42
3-6
3-6 1/2
3-6.5
42.5
etc.

I made some tools to use with my extensions and included them with Instant Fence, Road Nui, Roof Nui, Site Grader, Wall, Window, and Architecture. They include a tool to make an empty group for drawing in, and a tool for easily making copies of groups or components within a model.

Instant Roof Nui Version 3.2 has an added option to make Jerkinhead gables for both the main roof and dormer methods. If you are interested in this feature and have a subscription to Instant Roof Nui or Instant Architecture, please download the file from your "Files" tab and install as a sketchup extension. There is no need to uninstall the old version on your computer.

Instant Roof Nui Version 2.7 has added methods to model simple truss shapes. It is not intended for stick framed trusses such as a truss manufacturer would design but rather for exposed decorative trusses at vaulted ceilings. It is accessed through the main menu for modeling the trusses along with a roof (the full the full framing parameter must be checked) and also through the details menu when creating trusses using a pre-modeled roof form or sloped faces. I added a few preset styles as examples.
