Installation
This is not an installation guide. This is a landing page to ensure that you, the reader, follow the correct installation guide. Realism Overhaul and Realistic Progression One are available for several versions of KSP. Please choose an appropriate link from the list below.
Note: All installation instructions use CKAN as a tool to assist in the installation process. Unless you are intimately familiar with the RO/RP-1 mod ecosystem, you will have a VERY BAD TIME if you insist upon installing without CKAN. If you are unfamiliar with CKAN, it may be informative to read our CKAN 101 article before proceeding.
KSP v1.10.1 (Latest RO/RP-1) Installation Guide. Note that you can downgrade your copy of KSP 1.12 to 1.10 for this install.
Please note: Support will not be provided for deprecated installs. While we understand there might be good reasons for staying on an older version of KSP, we simply don't have the resources to support both the current versions and older versions at the same time.
