I just want some info on 64bit ksp.

I know it's a WIP and all, but how can it go from work I great (for me at least) in 0.24.5 to a buggy piece of crap in 0.25 on Windows?

I have a ton of mods and I used to be able to play this on both my main PC and Gaming Laptop. Now, I can only play this on the PC. Can't even get it to run in OpenGL mode on my hp Pavilion M6-1058ca Laptop.

I really hope Squad and the Community can figure this out and get it fixed.

Linux got stable 64-bit. Use Linux.

Thanks, I plan to get it, but it doesn't answer my question.

Sorry if I seem rude, but it gets a little frustrating trying to get it working on my laptop and failing.

Everywhere I read recommends not using the Windows 64bit version, especially for mods. The recommendations are to use either the Windows 32bit version or use Linux as suggested above.

It sounds like the Windows 64bit version has deeper issues will take more than a patch or a minor "fix" to get working. I wouldn't wait for it.

As a side note: not to be a Linux evangelist, but linux (at least Ubuntu in particular) is becoming a pretty reliable gaming system even for Windows games, if that's an issue that concerns you. I use it as my primary gaming OS now. It's not perfect, but with WINE and Play On Linux I've been able to run all of my favourite games, including even the Windows version of KSP (as an experiment).

Squad posted a statement after 0.25 was released: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/96320-A-Friendly-Reminder-about-64-bit-Mod-Compatibility-in-Windows

Unfortunately, if they knew exactly what caused it it would've been fixed already.
