Old parts sticking around

[Muncheese]

Hey guys

I have been playing ksp for some time and ever since I updated to 1.05, the new parts seem to be glitching out.

For ex: The Mk. 1 cockpit. In the parts list I still see the old mk1 cockpit in the parts selection list (alongside the new one) to put on my planes, but I ignore it and attach the new mk. 1 cockpit to my plane instead. But when I load up the craft on the runway it loads up the old mk.1 cockpit. When I hit the IVA button, I see the IVA of the new mk.1 cockpit, but the exterior is the same as the old one. 

This same bug is persistent with the "Wheesley" basic jet engine, and sometimes happens with the "Whiplash" turbo jet engine.

I have deleted and re-installed ksp 3 times now. This little problem was not present the 2nd time I re-downloaded ksp but the older parts were still in the part selection tabs. I have tried deleting the part files but it seems to not go away. 

Any suggestions?

To answer your question:

If you are on Steam, uninstall the game completely and re-install it.

If you downloaded the game through the store, delete all local files and re-download and extract the game.

The issue comes from old part models still being present in your GameData folder, and (I'm assuming because of partID and entityID reasons) the older model is chosen to be displayed. You COULD remove the files yourself, saving a re-installation/download, but I'd recommend re-downloading it anyway just to make sure it goes properly.

Also, don't use the included patcher. It did this for me a while ago.

Always install new updates in a different folder to the previous ones you had on the computer.

Happy Flying
