#Loading stuck

Norveç'te mi yaşıyorsun
(looks like even Norway banned ksp2 /j)
Dakota is a champ and you are all lucky to have someone like them!
WE AGREE!
YES
shush you. y'all dont even KNOW how amazing the QA people working on this game are
Its good to get these types of things solved now than later down the development path
nice try @leaden flame but if you are QA then it was your job to cath this bug!!! /s
eXpLaiN uR sELf!
YOU'RE BOTH AMAZING GUYS
You’re both amazing!!
We love you all!
Mine loads but it takes a long time at one specific step
Nope, the banning thing might not be the case but it is obvious that it cannot reach an endpoint in the "Loading Roster Data" step
[System] Action (Loading Kerbal Roster Data) timed out. (300s)
[Backtrace]::Reponse code: 504, Response text: HTTP/1.1 504 Gateway Timeout
as a developer, my first assumption was that some regions could not access an endpoint but that might not be regional. 300 seconds seems like a default timeout duration for a curl request in some .net libraries
following up on this with the team, want to confirm what's happening and see if we can get you to ping the server
or it could be that it could not do something, and when trying to do analytics it could not reach the endpoint. so two different problems
@green oxide when you guys expect to solve the bug
stop
Please be patient! They are doing their best!
they don't even know what it is yet... how can they give you an estimate?
ı filled and returned 4 tickets to private divsion customer service
Good. Feedback is great. Great, not instant.
asking for eta's from devs is like rule 1 what not to do...
Guess the only thing we can do is wait and hope for the best.
I just tried to run it with safe boot on windows 11. My problem was champaign loading. Stucked at first loading of the game with safe boot on.
has anybody tried to load a save that was created by someoneelse
maybe it is just the creation of a campaign
Some people did earlier, i dont think that worked
oh yeah that did not work for me, and campaigns sometimes managed to be saved anyway
I uploaded a save, check my comments
one person tried, said no dice, said it didnt even show up as a save in the menu
#1078687584626155560 message
i'm giving up for a while
Yea gonna hit the sack, thanks all
i wonder why it sometimes gets stuck and sometimes just crashes
You mean before main menu load screen?
And are you pc or laptop
I unplugged my second monitor, closed Discord, and I finally got past the loading screen!
interesting development.
🤔
@green oxide I just want to say thank you for everything you guys are doing! This game has great potential and looks great! EA was a good call!
i have been able to get through the loading screen into the main menu but i cant make a new campaign or join my last one
i did end up deleting my save files
the loading screen after you start a campaign?
so some people only had this issue occur after playing a bit?
I also feel like whenever I close more stuff, the log got longer, so it feels like my system is not enough for it (suspecting the GPU vram or stuff), and I got closer by closing stuff. (This time I unplugged the monitor too, and logs are the longest)
Nope! Still trying
np
Also after starting a new campaign me and other people get stuck at “Loading Kerbal Roster Data” and then we basically have to alt f4
is there maybe a way to import some one elses save game and maybe then it will work?
Can we do a statistics about the GPUs if they are above or below requirements? Maybe with thumbs up above and thumbs down below?
I GOT THROUGH
currently game is at seconds per frame trying to open the tracking station instead
did not work for me
Shame was worth a try tho
what did you do?
did you just wait?
okay I think the KSC screen seems to be a major framerate bottleneck, at least on my end
unsure of "pumping sim once" is related to that
i got this rn
what about the windows. thumbs up for 11 down for 10 please
after reverting back from launch to vab
I was stupid according to Einstein's definition of stupidity
Ran the game again and again expecting a different result until I got one
crucially, the game did not crash, and I just waited, but yea no new secret formula
did you run it from steam or directly from the executable?
directly from the executable
Steam
alright, guess i'm also Einsteining for a while then. Congrats on getting through btw, enjoy the game!
Correct, I was able to start a campaign finally
The Global folder you mean? So you had to go to graphics everytime and set them to low before trying? And did you play in fullscreen or borderless?
The global folder, though I deleted everything in the folder it is in (player.log etc.), just to be sure
and yes I had to go to settings every time 💀 I played on borderless btw
My god that must’ve been tedious 
wow my FPS levels are actually similar to my KSP1 (visual mods: parallax 2 + astronomer's visual pack) ones! I did not expect a surviveable performance.
except on the KSC screen which is l a g g y
KSP2 also does not crash zooming in on Jool, as I have had issues with with the ksp1 Scatterer mod
very 🥲
nope but we are making some sort of progress
Thanks
this is happening to me to
Maybe if someone who is able to skip loading can share the logs. We can compare it. Maybe we eliminate some unimportant errors and focus other errors in the log
once there is a reliable workaround please pin it in the thread please
good idea ^^
The devs are working on it, they have our logs and DXDIAG dumps
Guys! Quick News: The only thing I changed was I now appear "Online" with Steam. I now got past everything and am not playing. All files are original, none removed.
am online but nothing is changing
same
(mmm possible crash at VAB loading)
I was online when I used steam to launch it too ye
you might just have been lucky and passed through the cracks once like me
same
everyone is talking about how to pump sim once
but nobody is talking about how pumping sim once is 🥲
no
crazy
nah it crashed
why is pumping sim once ruining me lmao
Oh yeah VAB crash time for me
2 saves borked now, restart doesn't even help
back to crashing at pumping sim once 🥲
yep
yeah wait is there a fix to that lol
i wonder if i can even run ksp 2
there is not yet a reliable fix:/
all "fixes" we've come up with only work sometimes or for some people, it seems
cool
I'm having that same problem as well, OP. I then told customer support about it.
im running this on parallels on my m1 mac air lmao
its also very laggy
Honestly i’d be fine with 1fps if the game would just launch🥲
facts
Changing my windows display language to English(US) solved my creating a new save problem
man i cant even load a campaign
so like pumping sim once uhhhh what do i do
Do we have a solution for this yet?
Oh ok
I am way below minimal specs as well
backreading this chat may be useful for any questions one might have about this
Damn. I reverted to VAB and got Pumping Sim Once Frozen Again. Thought I was Free!
Dakota has indicated that hardware likely is not a cause here, and we've had people with quite beefy rigs in chat with the same problem
Seems like we’re gonna have to wait for a fix from the devs
i was able to set it up and run in my laptop, it is way below specs
Thank the Kraken
I read some stuff up there. Seems like we're gonna have to wait for the devs
Yup! No Problem though these things take time. Rather they do it now then down the line.
Nah, it's very unkrakenlike to make everyone hang at the loading screen so they can't build crafts kraken can play with
Everyone knows a good kraken waits until after a ship has been launched before striking, preferably at the moment you least expect it 
lol
One wrong timewarp, and...
Is it fjnally working?
I get this most frequently when reverting to VAB
Ive got that alot too
has anyone found a way of fixing the loading thing
read up, the answer is no
oh still no
ok
We should probably pin a message saying "no solution yet"
same
i just freeze no crash
but even reverting to launch pad
yeah same but also i cant even load into the space center, its everytime i try to load into a game file
i have an rtx 2070, i5-9600KF and 16 gigs of ram
loading takes a fair while
a min
Same
Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once does not have to do with specs - They think
pumping sim?
The part of the loading screen most of us get stuck on
ahh ok
Yeah
hopefully it get's fixed soon
considering how literally game-braking this is for many people, and that we're noticed by the devs, I'm certain this issue has a high priority
@green oxide could you pin this post? it may be useful for other players with this issue.
it's just annoying when you bug out on the pad and it takes forever to reload
thank you devs :D
i can only pin one thread in a discord forum unfortunately
Rip
thx for trying
That feels like a Discord Oversight
Maybe pin a message sating there is no known solution? People keep asking 😦
@green oxide PD is this a bug???
Maybe create a Commonly found bugs post, with the disclaimer?
Where people looking for issue could get linked here
Could be encorporated into FAQ i guess
i see the game XD
To replace the current pinned
i see all the planet now the game crash during a try to launch first training session
i just see a update to dl on steam
?
?
@sturdy turret wdym
yes my steam account dl it at 0:25 can't see what it does
Do you mean "Launch Day Notes"
nope
send pic
@sturdy turretPlease
Hes lying
bruh be trolling
nope
The send pics
i want to play to
Could you screenshot then and show us. We dont see that
did steam have a place where i could see old dl?
The question is if there is a new update, and that's something we all can check
My check turned out negative
Me too
we have not found a reliable fix to this issue
fuq
yet
hopefully
ok maybe i miss seen my dl steam and it was the game but really remember seing it with 0:25 but i can be wrong
They are the QA team and PD | Dakota have been working with us
thank god
To everyone here who hasnt been able to play yet: i know this sucks, but please remember this is part of early acces releases. Atleast we wont care as much that the game is buggy once we finally get it working!
Yup! Thank Kraken fr
considering the devs' silence here the last hour or so 👀 either they have worked a whole workday already, or they might have found a clue
I'm curious what will happen tomorrow
same
They are probably extremely tired, today has been very turbulent haha
yea in all honestly theres plenty reason to be optimistic about this
yuuuup 🥲 🫂
The fact that it doesnt seem to be hardware related is the main one
oh it isnt?
yes, it isn't!
Bugs can be fixed, inadequate hardware can’t (without spending a boatload of money)
i thought my laptop couldnt handle it
I just wish i could play the game
Doesn’t seem to have anything to do with specs, since people with above recommended specs have been running into this issue too
Me too bud, me too🥲
The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related
I just want to fly planes around kerbin and crash Jeb into the Mun🥲
Same problem here. Crashes to desktop on Pumping Sim Once.
Looks like its gonna be a Saturday/sunday session instead of a Friday/saturday session
Good thing its the weekend
Probably, sadly. 😦
ima scout the new surfaces and jam to the new soundtracks
Bad thing is we are missing 1/2 of the late night weekend days
same exact issue, sad part is I was able to load in a play the game. when I made a new campaign the issue appeared
here lemme check my recording for when it crashed, maybe mine said that too
@errant kernel where are you from? ive never seen 0.5 as 1.2?
oh, you got lucky and slipped through the cracks too once! Nice
Being in uni has its privileges, i dont have classes monday morning so i can play as long as i want sunday night. I symphatise with you working people though lol
misstyped, meant 1/2
Also USA usally uses 1/2 over .5
O Np!
From Ohio. Just used 0.5 as reference
I’m from Belgium, we also use 0.5 normally
I hope you are doing okay, and getting plenty of bottled water!
ok so i tried it again, its the same sort of sequence every time
i can get into the main menu and create a campaign, mess with flags and settings, then it crashes when it says pumping sim once
Lucky Me Train issue was not near me! Ohio water right now my be a little... questionable though
Yup! Us too
Oh yeah damn, i read about that. Glad you’re not in the direct vicinity, stay safe though!
ok just making sure this is the right place to be lol
NP!
Thanks!
My quesiton is, why is it effecting some while others not?
especially not YouTubers
I think I know at least one youtuber who got affected (Astronogeek, a french one)
Beardy Penguin (Youtuber) said he was having loading up issues and then could not even get in the game - He says he has a beefy-ish computer
I’ve not been able to watch most ksp ytber streams/videos because i’ve been trying to play the game myself all day😅
Ive been watching streams all day! Since playing is not reliable
Matt seems to have somehow gotten the KSC into orbit on day 1, which is totally unsuprising from him
he just goated like that
That was fun to watch
Honestly same. They’ll all get fixed eventually anyway, might as well have some fun with them now
How do I fix this
Exactly!
the glory of day 1 early access
No fix yet, the devs are working on it
Ok
dope
When do you think the update will be
maybe like 6 hours to 2 days
No fix to the Pumping Sim Once issue. The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related. They are still working. Be patient!
^
Ok
have this multiple time in log, someone knows what it is? [ERR 01:01:16.374] AssetProvider unable to find asset of type 'UnityEngine.GameObject' and key of 'ConsoleDebug/ControlButton.prefab'.
tbh pumping sim sucks, pumping simulator 2025 is the way to go
No I do not
im gonna go out on a limb, pumping sim twice is infinitely better
noper
They better remove that message from the loading screen at some point or we’re all gonna have traumas forever
Went to another channel. Big mistake, Very toxic in general chat. People do not see the potential of KSP 2 yet.
I’m actually extremely suprised at how civil this particular thread has been. The people here literally cant even play the game, yet everyone seems to still be positive. Now thats the way i like to see the ksp community!
I've never had this issue, maybe it's loading a large file? I know "not responding" just means that a new frame hasn't been loaded in a few seconds so that could be why.
This channel has restored my hope in the KSP Community
I had a "Not responding" for more than 30 minutes. No luck
try validating game files or uninstalling/reinstalling
Same here, just let it stay on the screen for about 40 minutes and it did nothing. Waiting clearly isnt the solution here
We’ve tried that, without succes. The devs are looking into it at this point, but we havent heard any updates from them in a bit
We've all done that. Including complete re-install. Devs say its a bug some people will have
Not too bad. Get to enjoy seeing the Devs helping us!
any update on how to fix the waiting time?
They really are great!
*loading

QA typing!
Appreciate all the patience in this thread! Ya'll are real ones.
Remind me to do that thing where I shake your hand with a 20$ secretly hidden in my palm if any of us ever meet.
Thanks to all Devs!
We have faith!
@leaden flameWhats your favourite thing to do in KSP 2?
yes we do
If they actually change pumping sim once to something else when the issue is fixed I'm going to screammmmm
be it "Pumping Sim Twice" or something else memey
We really appreciate you guys taking the time to help us out, i’m sure today has been very hectic for you all and you deserve some rest :))
Take your time! 🙂 Thank you for your hard work and everything you put into KSP2 ^^
this is exactly it
I’m gonna put that in a feedback ticket once things have calmed down a bit lmao
ye, the memories
hahaha actually go ahead
Guys, Real talk. Y'all the best! This channel has really re-connected me with the Community and let me see more than just haters!
so, is there really no fix for this yet?
So glad to hear that, we really can be an awesome community when we want to be cant we :)))
also other ideas would be greatly appreciated
"Trying To Not Crash While Pumping Sim Once" xD probably not that
Not yet
Not yet, but they’re working on it! They have our logs and DXDIAM dumps
No fix to the Pumping Sim Once issue. The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related. They are still working. Be patient!
70?? What currency?
How much is that in € or $? 50?
i have no idea
50 USD
YES THIS, my previous impression of the KSP community was that it was t o x i c
I'm positively surprised at us
i am having a very similar problem where it finished loading and then I can't accept the eula to play the game
Canada $ is slightly less valuable than USD. Very close though
dont worry just go one thread down to see them haters
uhh have you tried scrolling down to the bottom of the EULA
i cant scroll
FR
anyway, hope this gets fixed real quick, im kinda pissed
ik they are working on it tho
Thats about the same as the rest of us then. I get its a lot of cash for a game you cant play yet, but i’m very confident this will get fixed
same
hopefully the day one patch will fix
Its OK! day 1 this was bound to happen. No pre-release bug testing could find all these!
ill be sure to check this thread often for any new news
same
Appreciate you remaining civil about it too! Money is a delicate subject to most people, and 50 bucks can be a lot. Just goes to show the trust we have for the devs 🙂
they are probably looking through a stream of complaints a kilometer high at the studio
sort of feel bad
I dont even wanna imagine what they are going through with the support tickets😅
fr
lets show the ksp team some love next time we see em
yes!
We have! Theyre the best!
You just missed one of them, scroll back a bit!
i am convinced they will fix it by the end of the week
hope
alr, ill check back in an hour or so
thanks guys
See ya
👌
When we all get in, What will you do first?
Ill recreate the first rocket I ever made
I still remember building it with my dad like it was yesterday
holy crap i just realised that was like 7 years ago
time files
Woah didn’t expect such a wholesome answer, thats awesome man!
Imma just build a simple rocket to get to orbit and take it all in. After that, PLANESSSS
Everytime I try load into a career it gets to this point and crashes too (When it hits the pumping once)
With what I could play frames wont let me do planes. But once a little more optimized... PLANES!
No fix to the Pumping Sim Once issue. The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related. They are still working. Be patient!
Oh ok epic, Thanks
NP!
Wanted to pop in - this is my first time here, but I had the pumping sim once issue first time I started up
I restarted my PC and it worked fine, but then I tried to do the training videos and got the same issue
Sometimes happens when loading into a save or when reverting to VAB or going into tutorials.
now it just doesnt work no m atter what i do, so i got a good hour into ksp2, did p much nothing, and then the game quit on me
Ill fly them even if its at 1fps. I have some great memories of just flying around Kerbin in the first game, it’s inexplicably soothing
To be honest, the first thing I am going to do when the Pumping Sim Once issue is history is measure the water level of the lakes around KSC, then drive around a bit by rover with the new wheels exploring the local vicinity
Also a great way to get your mind of things if you’re going through a rough spot
The water levels?
I really wanna enjoy my time with KSP2 but honestly, 50 dollars to not even be able to play the game is a bit dissapointing. Lot of potential here, but very much a step back from where KSP1 was at a similar stage in dev
thats what ive been saying
I'm not sure if they are at sea level or not, it doesn't look like it from afar 😭
That sucks, i’m sure they’ll have a fix pretty soon. I haven’t been able to play yet, so it could be worse
Please be patient. Day one of EA has allowed Devs to find bugs/errors they could not have found during extensive bug testing.
Waterfallsss
It can always be worse haha
I have faith
As do we all! The devs have made it very clear they are getting to the bottom of this, so not all is lost yet 🙂
oh the humanity!!
yeah I've refrained from refunding
needs to be an emoji
We need a Kraken Emoji
This is the issue we haver all been having
I respect that. As i said a bit earlier, that really shows the trust we have in the devs to get this sorted out
Wen pumping emoji
Some people don't seem to understand what early access means. It means that the game is unfinished and will probably be very buggy.
I think the performance issues are, i mean they arent good but like its not like its unplayable
its just that you have to lower the graphics settings
which I had to do in ksp1 anyway
Guys! Problem for me was it'd stuck on loading screen where it says '' Kerbal Roster Data'' . I've changed my windows display formation to English (UK) and i'm in the game !!
People have their right to give criticism ofcourse (thats what ealy acces are for), but some people are overreacting and forgetting this is far from a finished game
I also, despite being able to, will not refund
THIS
we're legit at the first ever publically available update
You mean the system language? Huh, its weird that worked
Ive said this once, and ill say it again: Early access means playing a game without all the features and fleshed out story, not a game that costs money to look at the main menu
Yeah, though I will say based on what I've seen I think the game shouldve waited a bit longer before early access (or at the very least not be 50 dollars out of the gate) - people forget a lot that when you purchase a game you purchase the abiility to play it at that time - I paid 50 dollars to be able to play the game now instead of potentially paying 20 to play it in 5 years
i mean the Regional format
I think these solutions might be unrelated, that or the issue is just
one that has many different origins?
Not that this is an acceptable solution...Deleting my campaign and starting a new one seemed to get me to load in again. (Before deleting my campaign I was not able to start a new one, it hung at the same place in loading).
This is also a fair point, i dont think anyone would want to pay 50$ for that lol. But it’s not like the devs dont care or anything, they’re looking out for us and trying to solve this issue
trying this
You have to admit, it is a nice main menu though
wait do parachutes even wor right now
yes
what am i saying i saw one work earlier
A rule I would like for everyone who find potential "fixes" to the problem
Try doing the same thing again to verify that it does indeed work before posting about it
Because if it does not work a second time, it might be random that you got through that one time 😛
they slow you down
re-entry doesnt work, right? Re-entry heating i mean
i read the steam post about that
no reentry heat
hasn't been implemented yet, same with the effects
does not work for me but I am running on linux so it might just be a skill issue
i don't think it even supports linux yet
How do you change the language?
ive returned, any updates?
no
i know, im using steam's compatibility layer
fair
OH I forgot, second thing I'll do when I can reliably play the game is fly around on the sun while we still can
ah
QA popped in 30 min ago to thank us for our patience, they’re definitely still working on it
i think gravity would still crunch ya
Hoping they can get it fixed tonight, but doubting it considering how late it is
this is very reassuring
(day 1)
yep
dunno if thats late
Its 5:12pm Devolper time
late in the day
They are mostly PST
ayye same
ye, im like an hour drive from the devs irl
Gas, gas, gaaas, gotta step on the gas 
Just add bigger wings and fly faster duh:))))
Checking in did you guys get it fixed?
im actually a couple minutes away from the offices
not yet
no
Not yet, but the devs are working on it as we speak
no but a dev came and said thanks for the patience apparently
i would suggest people keep trying things? are using a dock, extra monitor, are you facing west, there is usually some silly common thread that will help the dev team narrow it down
This definitely could have been worse
Here’s that message: #1078687584626155560 message
e
Good, because I don't know how far back I'll need to go if there's a solution to my loading problem.
oh i was too slow
itll probably be pinned
fun fact: I don't think I've ever successfully docked two craft in KSP
My question is, Why is it working for some and not others?
but i think itll be patched along with an upcoming update
I tried playing from a copy on a harddrive a bit ago, and am now staring at ksp2 in french. Still nothing haha
damn 😔
I hope so.
Besides, if Support replies with an answer and it works, I'll let you all know
idk how I've gotten it working
probably some weird code thing
thx
I now have 4.1 Hours. I have reached obit once.
dunno, i got one of those asus republic of gamers laptops and it wasnt working first launch but restarted the pc and avoided the launcher and it worked fine
then it stopped workin
Ive got a desktop, so idk
Im using an RoG as well
fun fact: ive never been to eeloo or moho
never been to duna myself lol
I have 5 hours and i havent even seen the ksc lmao
landed on tylo tho
been playin this game for years and i never even got past the mun
Im using an ASUS work laptop
Ive got this weird hunch that KSP1 being installed it affecting something
speak for yourself pleb
ksp1 isnt installed on my end
Me too (in KSP1), but by the skin of my teeth
I literally just landed on both of them yesterday in ksp1
i deinstalled it ages ago
ive never been to moho, dres, the moons of jool, nor eeloo
Still never been to Bop, Pol and Eve’s surface
idk how youd even go that far - i refuse to dock
The only place I haven't landed kerbals on is Eve.
i would 100% the game as a 🫡 but i dont have it on my main steam for some reason
i only do single rockets. if you cant do it in one launch, it isnt worth it.
has anyone actually fixed this problem?
directascendchads
No fix to the Pumping Sim Once issue. It is a known bug. The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related. They are still working. Be patient!
can we keep comments to helping figure out this bug and take gameplay over to general please?
Some people have, but there’s no universal or permanent fix yet
yeah figured
it all seems p random at the moment
General is big and scary though
I believe someone got through earlier by just trying over and over again, but got stuck again after playing for a bit
i saw an article suggesting to run the game as an administrator but that just sounds like a terrible idea
me
i did that, didnt work
yea, dev asked to try it. no luck for me either
I have not gotten back in for about 4 hours
Right, still unfortunate it only worked once :/
oof
just verified my files to make sure nothing was amiss - all accounted for
FR thought I was free... then ⛽
The pump never stops
didnt even think that emoji existed
I fixed my problem!
⛽
I updated my video drivers
Nice! I did that too earlier today but unfortunately it didnt work for me
Were you having the same issue as the rest of us?
same
POGGERS
did not work for me
try restarting after updating them, that can help
a similar one
Brute-forcing the pumping (i.e. restart the game again and again each crash) worked a second time for me :>
time to enjoy a few minutes of KSP2 again until it crashes... again
i will try it too
installing any updates might be a good idea yea
Glad to hear some people are seeing some improvement!
Would it be worth it trying to update windows to 11? I’m still on 10
checking with gefore now to see if im updated
how do you check to see if drivers are up to date?
Depends on your GPU i think, best to just google it. I had to use GeForce experience to update my nvidia GPU, and now i’m checking whether my integrated card has updates available somewhere too
nvidia Geforce 940MX
open the geforce experience and go to drivers
mine are up to date and i still have the problem
How do you open this?
press the windows key and type geforce
if it's not there then you need to download it
the windows check for updates on your geforce my not grab most up to date drive FYI.
i went to Geforce's website, and they have an updated driver. about to try it
Thank you to all helping me rn
Yep, trying to update my nvidia drivers from the device manager didnt work, i had to use GeForce Experience to do so
we have not had much progress the last 3-ish hours that we know of tbf
There might be some momentum with people needing to update their video card drivers
dont rely on windows to tell you if it needs to be updated
Downloading a New Driver Update! Thank you all. My current driver has not been updated since 2018.
.
Did not know how or that I needed to.
2018
Thanks again! 💖
I know.
better late than never
did not work
I there a way yet to fix it
Yes
Yes
fr
⛽
Has anyone actually tried just asking it nicely to work?
kinda rude of it
I fixed it for me!
how?
How
HOW
It said no and called me names, would not recommend😢
tell me the secrets
ok, updated geforce driver. restarted in steam (DIDNT WORK)
Restarted computer, went to folder directly, ran as administrator, boom.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yes
got it past there once with that method, but it crashed when i tabbed out
so after you update your driver, try goint to the folder direclty and running as admin. OR, try restarting, that will isolate it a little better.
need food tho
How to get admin
Another restart it is
right click and run as administrator
Ok
Anyone know how to make sure you’re on the latest driver for your integrated graphics? Or is just checking with device manager sufficient
No
@leaden flame , just an update a few people have updated their drivers by going directly to the card distributor. I was able to get past it after updating, doing a restart and running as admin.
hop this helps you guys narrow it down a little.
hope*
I don’t see admin
yeah how do you run as admin?
Right click
yeah but what
Idk
Nope
no
😦
How to run admin
Not most tho
find the KSP folder on your computer and right click the exe. run as admin is an option
i just got this geforce thing and it's giving me a new driver from february 8th
Same
In file
is that fix?
Since doing this I cannot even boot-up KSP 2. I am re-installing KSP 2 altogether
Oh no, thats no good
I tried to run KSP2_X64 as admin and it worked for me
The one in steamapp
Yup!
Huh, i really wonder why that works for some people but not for others
should i try running as admin?
Steps that seem to work
-Update your graphics driver from the manufacturers website
-Restart computer
-Find exe on computer, right click and run as admin
if more people find what i wrote to work, maybe lets pin it so returning folks can see it right away?
looking for more people to confirm this works
Trying now
I just did these exact steps lmao and am stucc
same
didnt work ):
have you done a fresh reinstall recently? i did do that about an hour ago
no but ecerything else
I am seeing if it works
all the messing with files today could have ruined your install perhaps
???
Taluene
Close the game and try again to see if it still works
Apparently, it worked once and now it is crashing again
im orbiting, lol, not just yet
We have tried some... Questionable things
im enjoying while i can
does anyone know how to fix the long wait times for the loading screens
Not reliably yet
Somehow setting your laptop on fire is not a valid solution, who would have thought
is this issue just with NVidia people?
We have no shortage of "yay I got past through it once following these steps", a consistent/reliable fix is what we need
If you have Nvidia Thumbs up. Not Thumbs Down
Exactly. There seem to be some things you can try to slip through the cracks, but the fix isnt permanent
So no
ok i see
imagine a game with a decent community,
didn't work
KSP has one. The haters are a minority of the Community.
time to make this thread the entire ksp2 community:)))
I’ve updated my integrated graphics card driver too, lets see if that does anything
FR
im still stuck on initializing game instance how do i fix it?
trying the update from dell
You should read this thread. The level of support and understanding there has been for one another/the devs here is frankly unreal compared to the other chats. Ofcourse some people are pissed and or dissapointed, but they remain civil about it and do go acting around like a clown. Its truly been wonderful :))
What if we make discord sever about this???
hhhhhhhgghbhhfhffhh
okay so someone is struggling there too 😐
KSP2 v. 0.1 is a darn minefield of freezes/crashes
that wont end well
I could totally see the KSP pumpers being a thing
so there is no fix?
I have had a similar thought!
Not yet
the haters would just migrate to that
ok
i was able to fix by updating drivers, restart, and running as admin. i would suggest trying that if you havent already
Not if we only tell the people here👀👀👀
i had to go to geforce website and update the driver though
i am
ive done that
it doesnt seem to work
IT WORK RUN THOUGH ADMIN
ok, maybe keep trying new things so we can narrow down your particular issue. have you done a fresh install recently?
For me neither, but im trying it again with my other graphics card. Cant hurt right?
IT WORK
i did it earlier today
im re installing RN
I AM IN
Really? Thats great, congrats!
did you get it?
Yes
how did you do it? lets add to what we know
do you guys think it might be effected by the computer make?
is there a way to completely wipe ksp 2 off my pc
like microsoft or mac
like start fresh
i got a asus PC
the son of a gun did it
unninstall and delete the folder
I run though admin
i have an ausus laptop
uninstall with steam. thats what i did
im on a lenovo
ayyye asus tuf laptop over here
^
I AM IN
gon restart pc
Space thing can you give a step by step to see if that helps others?
I can confirm it's not your computer spec, i GOT THE GAME TO WORK, then I made a new campaign with different settings and I got the loading screen issue
I have an asus too
ill try the admin thing
Should we make the discord sever??? Because we are the only one here
i will make it lol
The devs have already pretty much confirmed this isnt spec-related, but thanks for reassuring us anyway 🙂 i’m sure there’l be a solid fix soon, some people have already solved it on their installs. Method seems unreliable though
Yes
Go ahead and make it!
Yes
I was able to play for a good hour today but it didnt work\
me when I create a campaign the game crashes....
It run the first time, and keep crashing when I try to open it again
Welcome to the club (devs are working on it!)
Same
for those still having trouble, are you installing the game on your C or auxiliary non SSD? I inititally had my game installed in a D drive, reinstalled on my Solid state C
the huh
im wondering if the game either needs to also be on your C (where your appdata is also located) and/or 2 it wont work on a backup drive
What
bros speaking enchanting table rn
fr
ok, sorry. many computers have 2 hard drives.
By the way I got in
POG
I had to use admin run
oh nice, what did you do mineturtle?
Almost got stuck at ⛽
nice, ok admin run seems to be part of the secret sauce
what does admin run do? just allow it more system priority or something?
i think it might help when KSP has to write to certain files to save app settings and such.
its actively updating files on your computer as it runs, so admin access prevents any weird permission issues i would bet
so how exactly do you run as admin
i hunted down the kerbal space program 2 folder
went to the .exe, right click after left clicking it, the ran it as admin
find the file on your computer, should be located somewhere around here... C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Kerbal Space Program 2
tried again after getting new geforce driver from feb 8th, along with reinstall + reboot without luck
did you run as admin
as a final touch yes lol
darn. have you done a fresh install recently?
yea I did a fresh install after getting the new driver
I'm gonna try and update my integrated gpu if it's not already updated
With new driver, I can no longer open the game from the launcher. I have to go through Admin in game files. :/
Still a no go for me too :/
what does wrn mean in the ksp notepad
like the logs
bcs in the logs it says i have a lot of errors
No clue
did not work ⛽
[ERR 21:26:33.461] AssetProvider unable to find asset of type 'UnityEngine.GameObject' and key of 'ConsoleDebug/ControlNumericField.prefab'.

[ERR 21:26:33.461] AssetProvider unable to find asset of type 'UnityEngine.GameObject' and key of 'ConsoleDebug/ControlHorizontalSlider.prefab'.
this is a nightmare.
this comes up
Nightmares end. The devs will wake you up with a fix, dont worry :))
ok
for a good number of folks this worked...
-Update your graphics card on the manufacturers website. Very likely windows wont give you the most update to date driver
-Restart your computer after installed
-Go tp C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Kerbal Space Program 2 and run the exe as administrator (right click the file)
This fixed a number of folks problems. I would also note that many folks have done a fresh reinstall in the last hour if you are deleting and folders manually to get stuff to work. so you might consider that too.
just for folks returning and who havent seen our progress
Guys youll never guys what happened
⛽
@cedar schooner's method worked until Reverting to VAB or tutorial
I’ll try reinstalling one more time, if it doesnt work by then i’m giving up and going to bed
ive completed a flight and am building a second craft at the moment
Glad some of you are having fun in the game already
I reverted to VAB then it ⛽ . I build and flew another craft tho
generally speaking an early access game is supposed to be accessible right
Atleast you got a craft in before it pumped again
Yep, but bugs like this will occur. They can never account for every single player case, but that’s exactly why they do early acces. Imagine the rage if some people couldn’t even start the game on official release. It sucks for us, but hey, we’ll get through it together :))
I agree! It also makes it more fun when you can get in and play. even if it is only a little while
Nobody is gonna be as happy playing the game as us once this gets fixed hehe
A bug? Who cares! Kraken attack? At least the rocket launched! 3 fps? Thats 3 more than we got on the loadscreen!
yuuup
shoot that's both of my gpu drivers updated without luck
But seriously, lot of respect to everyone here. Waiting isnt easy when all the others are playing already, but like QA said; y’all are taking it like champs
I have a new player.log tho!

I think that one time I got in. was just luck. Now it pumps and I cant close it. I have to turn my computer off and back on. No alt. F4. No ctrl. alt. dlt.
the definition of gigachad
(a good thing)
Pumped again. Imma take a quick break.
yup same here, just updated, and ran as admin, but stopped for the sim to get pumped up
K. I'm gonna call it. I think we try not pumping the sim at all...
Any updates yet
I've waited 3 years for this game, I can wait another week or two
shake out the pump
The laptop version of the 3050
960MX + New Driver Update (as of Feb. 8)
what's with the "Pumping sim Once" loading screen? seems to break a lot
are those within the minimum requierments?
Join the club, we all have that same problem
No fix to the Pumping Sim Once issue. It is a known bug. The Devs have mentioned that the Pumping Sim Once done Freezing/Crashing does not appear to be spec related. They are still working. Be patient!
already been said the issue isntspec related
oh ok. Thanks!
ok
We’re just gonna have to hope the devs find a fix tomorrow. It’s 4am here so i’m giving up for today, goodnight all!
goodnight
...progress?
balls
any progress boys
no still pumping sim
bro join the sever
pump gang
⛽
⛽
⛽
⛽
I've updated drivers and have managed to go from pumping sim once to pumping sim once with an AMD timeout dialogue.
"progress"
I have this same issue
hello it has been 9 hours, have i missed anything important(a fix)
No lol
damn
Good morning! And no:/
Sadly. Not yet. We'll see in the morn.
that feeling when you didnt want to watch anyone get past the mun so you can experience the new system in full but cant play until tomorrow
fair
This is still not fixed?
it has not been fixed, less than a day after release
okay thanks.
restarted pc again
still not working
losing patience
50 dollars to not even be able to play the game on day 1 is a bit ridiculous
feel free to file for a refund, or wait
Lets keep it constructive and on topic, you can rant and complain on other channels Kats
Thx Scholar
well i sleep
Gn my friend
"e"
Ill take the day shift 😉
Nah thanks, im ok
They still havent fixed it yet? damn
Please all of you go check what your version of software is for your GPU. Update it, update Microsoft dependencies, etc.
I guarantee it’ll fix atleast 20% of you guys
drivers?
Ye
We tried that
m1 mac air :(
while ago
yeah i did all that a while ago
If you load into a game on a mac, your computer is legally considered an ied
Tried Microsoft dependency’s such as -.. i don’t know it off the top of my head, something to do with Microsoft Studio Code
runs ksp1 perfect so im using parallels to run windows 11
Also, pumping sim step is when the simulation actually starts executing Unity physics iirc, try clearing unity cache
how do you do that im nt super tech competent, or competent in general
thats either an apple moment or your GPU drivers need to be wiped clean and reinstalled
or maybe an AMD moment, dunnu.
nah my screenshoting software glitched and thought the corrupted image was funny
it is eiiitherrr: MonoBleedingEdge file, or UnityPlayer.dll - delete those, then try to launch the game. If game doesn't launch, verify game files. this is just theory. verifying game files will fix it if it doesnt work.
ah lol
Also there's a joke among us stuck players that "you never pump the sim twice"
I hate autocorrect
ps; how to find game files is in the same place as verify game files, just hit browse instead of verify.
damn i tried looking in there, guess i missed it
@sudden thunder right click game and select properties and then find the one with browse local files
from steam
huh?
isnt that what I just put in the second screenshot
i write how to locate game files from steam
did it get fixed?
You mean the visual++ stuff?
Ye, that
Gotcha i did read something about that about visual basic stuff so ill try doing that today
so did we get it fixed
Not yet
I just want to play the game 🥺
yo chill with the @s, they’re probably working their assess off right now

who are you to talk
You
how old are you 5
Facepalm

I know this is annoying, but please dont get upset. That wont make the situation any better
hmmmm
Multiple people tell you to chill and you respond by insulting
Shows more about your age and mental state
Please calm down
Lets keep it on topic again and constructive please, thank you
Its the middle of the night in the US, so most of the devs are probably currently sleeping btw. They’re people too ya know. With any luck we’ll get an update on our issue when they wake back up
pump gang wooooo
how can I get log files and share them here
You can get it from game files (ksp2.txt)
quite a few people and I get stuck on "loading kerbal roster data" and so far that specific issue is regional
Same about me btw
do we send the txt file as a ticket
Any ideas why “pushing sim once” freezes my game?
No. But at least the thread is somewhere on top, devs eill see it soon.
Praying
i did get to play this morning but now no
I'm just hoping they come out with a fix soon, like within the next few days at least
yea
Let's just keep the thread active, so it shows on top.
So far this is my only regret buying the game, other than that I wouldn’t care if it’s a buggy mess
yea
It’s for the lols after all 


Yknow these discord thread things are pretty neat
true
ITS WORKING
IM IN THE MAIN MENU NOW
i did not do anything with DXinstall yet and or visual++
BUT
what i DID do is go into msconfig, and disabled various start up processes then rebooted
now load into a campaign
so im pretty sure its a conflict with a certain background startup process
ok ill try that too now
one moment
@tender girder help us
IM IN
maybe your lacking memory or cpu
passed pumping sim
YOLO
D
😄
to give more info i was stuck on loading even BEFORE main menu since yesterday
now i started reading and was about to do DXreinstall and Visual C++
BUT
did they fix it
DID THEY FIX IT
is what fixed it
so it IS something to do with Microsoft boot/start up services that is conflicting
its NOT spec related but we knew that already
my advice is to turn off non microsoft related start up services through MSconfig
go to your msconfig by typing MSconfig in search bar
then go to services tab
tick hide all microsoft services
hmm
