Installed Mod, but no sign of the Mechjeb functions

Hello,

I just recently started with KSP just before the .23 patch (so initially I was using .22) and I'd installed the 2.1 version of Mechjeb after having started a game in career mode and I was not entirely surprised that mechjeb never worked (And had planned to create another game to play with it). Well I then promptly installed one add-on to many and KSP .22 stopped being able to finish starting up.

So I took that as a sign I should just wipe this copy and install the new .23 version fresh. So I did and then installed the main add-ons I had been using: L-Tech Science Parts (For more science gizmos), KW-Rocketry, B9 Aerospace, KAS, KSPX, and Mechjeb (Assuming it would work this time). Well I start a new game in career mode again (I like the increased purpose) and the only 'early' part from mechjeb is the AR202 module, so I add that on to a bunch of designs and I figure I'll see the mechjeb button/window this time like in the videos. However I don't see anything besides the standard UI.

The AR 202 module takes power and selecting 'control from here' has no effect. So I look outside and check the plugins folder and that has only 2 dll files: mechjeb2.dll and LtScience.dll. The LTScience one works as I have all the extra Science modules when the parts are researched, but the UI for mechjeb does not.

Am I just missing something?

I think from the sound of it you may have it installed incorrectly. I'll
check how I have mine when I get home so you have something to compare to.
Btw, what system are you using?

Err... I'm not sure how I could 'mess up' this install. AR 202 and pod folders go in gamedata and the dll goes in the plugins folder. If there is something else that needs to be done I have no clue what that is...

I'm running KSP for windows (non-steam) on a Windows 7 system.

  1. Everything goes in the gamedata folder. Just the zip un gamedata
  2. 2.1 does not works on KSP .23, you need the dev version available on the forum.

I'm having the same problem, I installed correctly but the tab still is not showing up, I've tried with the mj pod and the ar.

I'd upload a diag but won't let me upload it
