Follow the instructions on the wiki.  https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/RO-&-RP-1-Express-Installation-for-1.12.3

I already did, that's why I'm here.

@Galileo chiu I don't have a Mac, so I can't test on OSX, but typically people having problems on Windows have skimmed through the instructions and missed one or more steps. 

The most common one seems to be :

3. Open CKAN > Settings > "Compatible game versions" and mark KSP version 1.11 as compatible.

(Also Intel or Apple M1 CPU?  I'm only assuming that KSP, RP-1 and everything else work on the new Apple CPUs).

Yeah, M1, I can't find the settings on CKAN

[AVaughan]

On Window the windows GUI it is "Settings" -> "Compatible game versions".

A little bit of research says that CKAN uses a console UI on current versions of OSX.   From https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN/wiki/User-guide#Using-the-console-UI

Choosing compatible game versions

F10

Game instance settings...

Tab three times to get to the compatible version list

Press A and select a new version from the list to add it as compatible

In general, you will get faster support (and often from someone better than me) on discord.  https://discord.gg/VdsxK9p7QC

Thanks.

The Express Install seems to no longer be working? On the loading screen I get an error saying incorrect RP1 version. Tried reverting to two of the most recent versions but still getting the same error message 

[billgarlic]

Same here.

Seemed to possibly be related to a contract configuration update earlier today.

@IV_Aerospace It appears that an update to Toolbar Controller is causing the problem.  I reverted that and the new Contract Configurator and the error goes away.

[IV_Aerospace]

@billgarlic seems as though both have since been updated to fix the issue, thanks for the help! 

[adriangm44]

Something is happening...

I met all the requirements for a contract. (I even deleted in the cfg of the contract pack the requirement of having completed a previous contract, which it was met as well, hoping to fix it). But the contract REFUSES to being offered. I can't move on with the progression... 

No one answering in Career Evolution thread. Any help here?

[siimav]

RP-1 only supports contracts that come preinstalled with the mod itself. You can't install other contract packs and expect them to work.

I know this is could be considered "not directly linked to RP-1", but I have a question regarding the express install:

Should early engines Like the (aerobee and A-4) have smoke trails on launch? I do not see any.

The express install installs waterfall and smokescreen, but it's unclear whether I should expect smoke trails for these early engines.

Thanks!

PS: (i'm happy to go to either one of those threads once I know where to start)

No, liquid engines aren't supposed to have smoke trails.

I guess this is indicative of a solid stage before the WAC stage then? Thanks for clarifying!

Aerobee had a solid first stage derived from wac corporal.  If you're recreating this make sure to ignite the second stage before the solid stage burns out (tank ulage)

Loving RP-1 with KSP 1.12.3. Works really well and great visuals with RTX 3070.

One thing I cannot figure out -- how do I get solar panels that track the sun? I use parts that seem like they are supposed to track the sun like  ROS-FoldingSolarPanel but they do not track the sun. What tech node do I need to get tracking solar panels? And what panels are supposed to track the sun?

-Thanks

I downloaded this from CKAN, how do I know what fuels an engine uses?

Fortunately we have a wiki that contains the answer to that question and many more!

When I load up RP-1 The only parts are have are these:

these are non rp-1 parts

I also get this error message:

I'm having a weird issue with mechjeb windows. The ascent window is taller than the actual screen space and when I try to drag the window down so I can see the top the window jumps right back to the top. Other menus do the same thing jumping back to a position where they are centered between the top and bottom of the screen. No issues dragging them left and right.

Sounds like something isn't properly installed.  Did you follow the installation instructions?  https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/RO-&-RP-1-Express-Installation-for-1.12.3

[Kerbalistic1]

Yep, The only thing I didn't do is use CKAN, but I downloaded it manually. Most of RP-1 works the only thing. that I think why it falls is because RSS is not properly installed some. It says that it couldn't create a contract for to specifically go somewhere because I think My RSS is somehow not properly installed

[Gordon Dry]

Is there a way to stop RP0KCT to already offer still-to-be-unlocked parts from the R&D tech progress in VAB/SPH?

This behaviour forces the player to always know which parts are not-yet-unlocked which can become annoying when building a new vessel, expecially in early career.

Then you didn't follow the instructions.  Best guess is you are missing one or more dependencies somewhere. 

Start with a clean copy of KSP 1.12.3, use CKAN and follow the instructions.  Don't install anything other than the three? mods the express install recommends until after you have checked you have a working install.

You aren't trying to install Parallax 2 are you?  Because from what i have heard Parallax 2 and RSS currently aren't incompatible.  

[Kerbalistic1]

No. I don't have Parallax 2

Also I have the dependencies for RSS which I believe is CustomBarnKit, KSCSwitcher, Copernicus, and ModuleManager. Maybe Kopernicus is not working idk. But I left my laptop for like 1hr and nothing. I am also on Mac.
