ksp gets past the part loading but stops on the second screen (solved)

[hey, it me bob]

as i said in the title, ksp can load all the parts and expansions with little issue. for some reason my ksp seems to stop after the yellow bar is loaded 100% then the screen changes with no problems.

im not sure what the second loading screen is called, but its the one with kerbin eve and jool all orbiting anround the sun with the word loading beside it.

im not sure what the issue is, if anyone has any ideas please feel free

 

(the issue was outdated/conflicting mods, still unsure as to why it loaded to the second screen but stayed there for 30+ minutes)

You're in the "modded" support forum so I'm going to assume you're using mods.

In order to help you, we're going to need some more information and the log files. First thing's first- what version of KSP are you on? What mods are you using, and are you sure you have the right versions for your version of KSP as well as all the dependencies they require? (CKAN will do this automatically, manually installed mods often include their dependencies but not always so worth checking).

This guide shows how to get your log files and what to do with them when you have them: 

KSP.log is easier to find (it's right there in the KSP root folder) but is less detailed, Player.log has more information in it but is harder to find as it's buried in layers of folders and inside a hidden folder that isn't always visible. Try to get them both, upload them to a file sharing site and then post links here; don't post the contents of the logs straight into the forums as it's an absolute pain to try and read on a PC and nearly impossible on a tablet/phone.

Getting past the loading screen and onto a screen with the little planets icon but then crashing is pretty unusual, but to me that suggests that the game has loaded and compiled without any issues but something is then causing problems after that and if that's the case I'd expect to see a huge spam of errors in the logs.

How long have you waited on the spinning planets screen? I've seen it take several minutes to get through that screen to the main menu with a very heavy load of mods. How much RAM do you have in your PC and how much is being used by KSP when it fails? Open Task Manager (or Activity Monitor if you're on a Mac) and watch the memory use graph while KSP loads; if it hits 100% then you might be running out of memory which can cause things to go wrong.

To ensure you get the best and the most accurate support, please post logs, screenshots, modlist, computer specs etc

I guess this is probably a unsupported mod or a mod conflict but you could also try waiting

if you have a ton (100+) of mods like me, then ksp might pause on the second screen for a LONG time (e.g. 10+ mins) so being patient might also be an option

i hope this helps
