KSP 1.7.3 "loading" thingy never stops?

[strider3]

I am trying a fresh install of KSP 1.7.3, on a dedicated HDD. I have run into the following problem:

The game loads just fine, with all the mods (which I will show you in a minute). But, anytime the little "loading" thingy gets going, after starting play, in the bottom right corner of the screen...it just goes for ever and ever and the only way to stop it is to exit from the game. I don't mean hitting the "ESC" key...that doesn't work, at that point. I have to close the KSP  program by hitting the "Windows" key and closing it from the Windows Toolbar. This happens anytime the "loading" thingy needs to run once in game...it's not "freezing"...the planets are going around and around...but during that I have absolutely no indication that any of my HDD's are being accessed...so it ain't loading anything, AFAICT.

Some info:

Windows 7 Ultimate 64 OS

My mods:

You will not see MechJeb2+Embbeded+1.5+For+KSP+1.7.2+and+earlier.zip installed as I removed it, first thing. I have never used MechJeb before this but thought maybe the "Embedded" mod might be a problem, and removed it. Made no difference with the problem. I only wanted to try MechJeb for it's autopilot landing functions. If it proves to be a problem I will go back to KER Redux, which has always worked.

Any ideas?

I'm having the same issue. Only mods I have installed are [x] Science! Continued, FullAuto Strut, Kerbal Alarm, Kerbal Engineer, Transfer Window Planner.

I am having the same problems, too. I have only installed Kerbal Engineering Redux and Transfer Window Planner. Bu I think looking at the above comments, problem is either TWP, KER or the game itself :)

I will try removing TWP and see what happens. Unfortunately it's one of my "must haves".

Same here, but the previous version 1.6.3.0 still works fine  

[strider3]

VoidSquid, I'm going to assume you meant TWP 1.6.2.0? Going to try KSP without TWP first, and see if that corrects the issue.

I'll get back to you.

OK, TWP latest version does cause this issue and has several reports of it at TriggerAU's forum in "Add On Releases", and he is aware.

VoidSquid, you were correct, TWP 1.6.3.0 is newest "previous" version of TWP. I removed TWP 1.7.1.0 and installed 1.6.3.0 and...all is again right in the Universe!
