Extraplanetary Launchpad not able to open GUI?

[SmashingKirby148]

Pretty straight forward, I can't open the GUI. Whether I right click the launcpad, or look at the top right, not even Toolbar gives me an Extraplanetary Launchpads button. Does it have to do with the Kerbals? I have two command pods with 0.25 productivity factor and I have kerbals in the Launchpad (because apparently they can go there?) I also have the rocket workshop which has a productivity factor of 1. I even have rocket parts, I just can't open the Launchpad GUI!

Even weirder, I looked for a solution online, just to see if I am the first one with this problem, and I found some people with the same problem as me. But they were saying their antivirus was removing the KSPAPIExtensions.dll, but I went to check and I had it! So why is the launchpads GUI not working? Is there something else causing it?

Just a quick shot in the dark with the Ol' Boomstick, but if it might be KSPAPI related, check your Gamedata and all sub-folders for multiple copies of the KSPAPI Extensions.ddl... If there are, find and keep ONE copy of the latest vers., and try removing the rest...

Also, you would probably get better response, from posting on the actual EPL release thread...

Also, if you havent already, look here: https://github.com/taniwha-qf/Extraplanetary-Launchpads/issues

Ok. Where do I put that copy?

I got rid of the copys, still getting the same response. I sent the modder a PM this morning (GMT for me), but he hasn't gotten it yet...

^^

It doesnt really matter where it is, as long as its somewhere in Gamedata or a sub-folder... I usually keep mine right in the main Gamedata folder, or in a sub-folder labeled KSPAPI...

Sorry it didnt seem to work for you... I know multiple copies, especially of different versions, can SOMETIMES cause issues... The most current version is SUPPOSED to overule any others during laoding...Like I said, it was just a quick shot in the dark...

And the latest KSPAPI is 1.7.5: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/81496

I guess next thing would be too check the KSP.log in the main install folder...Scan down thru for [ERR] & [WRN], and look for anything obviously related to EL...

Hopefully you'll get some better responses soon...

That all looks good, I think.... You want to concentrate in lines that start with [ERR] & [WRN]... [LOG...] is normal...

Also, probably not related, but I notice it looks like you have your KSP install folder saved to your Desktop?... IIRC, thats not ideal... Also, IIRC, the main install folder should be named \KSP_win\ ...(for WIndows, _linux for Linux)....That would replace your \Kerbal Space Program - Main Game\ ...

Again, hopefully someone who knows for sure will chime in on that...

At the very least, I'm helping by bumping your thread, and keeping it current...lol

I think you can name them that. I saw during one of Bob Fitch's videos that we labelled them after the KSP version and the series he was doing on it. Unless he has the KSP_(OS) in those labeled folders.

I also forgot, location of the KSP install folder also depends on if you bought it thru Steam or not...

Yeah, I bought it through Steam

[Stone Blue]

So did you go thru your KSP.log and find any errors or warnings?...Yes, it IS long...But again, at first, just pick out the errors & warnings...

Well, I posted on the main thread and something told me I shouldn't be moving the .dll's. Also, I'm not exactly thr most patient person, soooo....

Don't worry, I fixed it. It's because I was using the 64-bit workaround.
