Control Surfaces Not Responding.

[Lord_Potato]

KSP: 0.25 Windows 64bit

Problem: None of the control surfaces are working.

Mods installed:

NEAR Aerodynamics 1.2.1

Universal Storage 0.9.1

Karbonite 0.4.2

KAS 0.4.9

DMagic Orbital science 0.8.6

Whenever I place a control surface such as a canard or elevon on a rocket or plane, it does nothing. The SAS still works, and I can see the pitch and yaw indicators moving.

[Boomerang]

Do the control surfaces have any effect in flight? ie: is the animation of them moving perhaps broken, but they're still providing roll/pitch/yaw authority in flight?

If it were me, I'd try removing NEAR and reloading the game to determine if the problem is stemming from that.

I have this exact same problem, and I have been trying to find someone else with the same issue. I do not use NEAR, I use Ferram. I have tried uninstalling it and it still doesnt work. In fact I have no mods in common with Lord_Potato, but I do use the latest version of KSP x64. All the mods I use are compatible with 0.25, I do get my firespitter plugin flagged, but it has always gotten flagged. It can't be the aerodynamics mods though since both of us run separate ones and experience the same issue. It isnt a parts mod because it is happening with all control surfaces not just modded ones. I am running out of ideas though and I have verified through steam that all KSP files are present.

EDIT: I actually unistalled B9 Aerospace not Ferram, upon uninstalling Ferram control surfaces worked again. I did not konw that Ferram was not compatible with x64 KSP

accidental fib lol

Sorry I misinformed you I tried removing B9 Aerospace not Ferram. After removing Ferram my control surfaces worked again though I do not know why just yet. Ferram has always been a mod I considered a must have so its very disappointing that even its newest update is not compatible with .25

FAR is perfectly compatible with 0.25, as the OP says.

As the OP also says, it does *not* work on 0.25 KSP Windows x64, for well-stated reasons.

Please read the *entirety* of the OP when you download a mod.

I'm actually having this problem with NEAR using ksp x32. Going to try un-installing NEAR to see if that fixes it.

Edit:

Can confirm, removing NEAR fixes it. Going to post in the mod's thread regarding the issue.

There was a bug in NEAR that was released right after 0.25 was out. Make sure you are running the latest version.

[Padishar]

And also, while you're in the NEAR thread checking for the update, read the first post again, paying particular attention to the bit that says it will disable itself on the Windows x64 build.

Yeah, that. QFT

FAR/NEAR works just fine on 64 bit if you edit the .dll. I had this exact same problem with B9 and no FAR though. No idea what's causing it but everything's OK without B9.

If you are using hacked FAR or NEAR on Windows x64, you do so at your own risk.

[smysha]

Got same problem. Control surfaces are not working. In fact, none of aerodynamic parts is working - no lift from wings, capsule doesn't want to descent properly etc. I'm running x32 version of KSP, with FAR and without B9

[ferram4]

Then that indicates that you did not install FAR properly.
