How to add "more" parts?

[Pik4rd]

hi, how do i add more parts from the 'addon section'?

If i download some, he always asks to overwrite the old ones. Is there a way to get all the parts without overwriting the old ones ?

If it asks you to overwrite you already have those parts. Maybe a Readme file is the only one being overwritten, if that's the case, just continue the process.

they are called XXXX.dae

You need to put downloaded parts in their own folders under the KSP\Parts folder.

You should have something like this:

KSP\Parts\newpart1\<files>

KSP\Parts\newpart2\<files>

Note: The Wooden Rockets mod will OVERWRITE the original vanilla parts, so do a backup first.

I have question though, when i do the same thing @skunkmoney directed, none of the textures and particles are showing up in the new folder. I dont know what im doing wrong but when i start up the game, it doesn start up , it just loads forever. When i deleted the new add-ons i tried to obtain, the game starts perfectly fine.

Someone help please?

well what i always do is keep the RAR file and whenever i install new part

i remove the game file and extract a clean game file

and copy the new parts in there

and for your game being stuck at loading

that means one of the part you are trying to install does not work properly

so try adding part one by one to find the faulty part

hope this helps

First off, what mods are you adding?

Second, try adding one new part folder at a time. If one of the parts is bad or installed incorrectly, the game will freeze on loading. Eventually an error dialog will be kicked, but that's not a top priority atm.

Well im trying to download jacks parts.

Ah, I've not tried his parts. What version of KSP are you on? The experimental version might be needed. Modders aren't very clear on which version they require.

Not much I can do beyond show you how the folder structure and files should be arranged.

Try Sunday Punch's Wobbly Rockets, it's prolly the best and most stable pack of mods out so far.
