Ok, thanks. It seems odd in the tutorial they ask you to download legacy and teach you how to use an older version of it which cant be used with "OSM" files/more advanced OpenStudio.

I have been following the OpenStudio website you linked starting with "Installation and Introductory Tutorial". They begin by going into sketchup/legacy. They begin showing you "Building Envelope" then "Space Types and Thermal Zones". Both of these parts of the tutorial are set up in with what seems to be the older version, which works with "OSM" files while my version works with "IDF". For clarification, the plug-in I have now isn't compatible with OpenStudio per-say because it uses "OSM" files. I can only use Energy Plus, which uses "IDF", with the plug-in , correct?

I have been trying to teach myself how to use openstudio, but none of the videos or resources that I am finding are up to date with the latest version (V 1.0.13). The ribbon is completely different, and some of the buttons on the ribbon aren't even included in the newer version. Does anyone know of good tutorials that are up to date with V1.0.13.
