@formal dagger so, i logged out of the launcher, quit it, used CCleaner, logged back in, etc and still have standard stash size even though everything else says i have EOD edition
Ther folders should look like that
and have a .dmp file in them
@fallow citrus
Please send a email to support@battlestategames.com and they'll get you settled.
Yeah so he is redownloading again because dummy him installed tarkov in a different folder/setup then normal so the logs werent savign there for some reason
@formal dagger i made a support ticket on the site, thanks
@formal dagger He is not getting those logs for some reason. He only gets the logs in the logs folder
That's bizzare.
Chances are it's just matching.
You can always backing out and or matching on different servers.
does anyone get like a screen play back after alt tabbing but goes away eventually?
@formal dagger He once again completely wiped every trace of tarkov on his pc reinstalled launcher, made sure his directories were accurately set. And it still crashes and he doesnt get those logs at the top of his eft folder
Hey I need some help with downloading tarkov can someone help?
whats the issue? @viscid gyro
Do eod owners still get the additional equipment if they have just bought the game?
the decked out rsas and stuff
that was a special "Thanks for Ordering" Christmas present
not specifically tied to EOD
@serene haven
I really want to play the game but the setup is so fucked I can't even get it
Ah, we actually have a fix for the conststency file error, give me a moment.
pls jesus
Download CCleaner and run it in registry mode.
what do i do about not receiving all my items after upgrading from standard edition to left behind?
I read the description and wanted the extra items also.
I have proof of what items i received and it does not match the description
or can someone explain it to me?
Please E-mail support@battlestategames.com
thanks
Im getting a "Bad message ID from owner" message when trying to get my insured items from prapor
Tried preemptively accepting the deal before the message automatically kicks in, but then it just gives it after I accept.
Where do I send reports of hackers/cheaters?
!report
Hello @fossil bloom,
We do not take reports of cheaters here on discord.
In order to report a cheater, please record your game and post the video in this topic :
https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/98098-cheater-video-report-megathread/
Please refrain from accusing anyone here on discord to avoid provocations and conflicts.
Thank you!
@dusky whale
I would report them here because they hack and cheat. I want them investigated.
Error code: 2F173/H
"We do not take reports of cheaters here on discord"
also
did you log into your account on the forum?
What is my forum account?
@lament ridge help with what
@viscid gyro
Just checking in, did that help?
Hello, I'm having some issues with the game. I cannot scav into reserve due to infinite matching time. Is this the right place to reach for asistance?
who is getting bad service version?
I really need help, is says downloaded file checksum does mot match
@haughty gale If you get that, just reconnect. Just means you have a corrupted connection.
@formal dagger good day, a friend of mine wants to buy the game but we want to make sure we buy the correct version for him, but it wasn't us to submit payment before we can confirm our region anywhere, where exactly do we set region of the game before we buy
why i get no support ticket id if i write to the support ?
i wrote on friday and a still got no support ticket ID
anybody in here knows why?
3 headshots 7.62 BP = 121dmgs.............................................People actually are surviving 3 headshots because they don't wear armor....
or because you didnt hit
The game counted the hits, because i know how much dmgs i've dealt
because you didnt hit the head
I could only see head and half of his top, mates confirmed head impact
Even if i hit the thorax, it doesn't have 120 hp, only 70
arms are in front of thorax when you face someone that is shooting you
So
The bullets should have penetrate arms+ thorax
he wasn't armored
still, 3 50dmgs bullets dealt only 30, why ?
No glass, no fence, nothing in between us, why is there a 40% damage reduction applying ?
Why while i use Penetrating bullets, it's actually doesn't penetrate OR penetrate HEAD and because he has no helmet, magically the bullet deal only 30 dmgs SO he could survive a headshot
Is this quest bugged or disabled?
restart your game
I mean i restarted and now there is no quest
@quasi mural you probably didn't hit the same body part with each shot. Maybe you hit the thorax once and the arms with the two other shots? Or you actually missed one or two shots and it just didn't show correctly on your or your teammates end?
@vocal kindle did you complete the quest you need a specific skill level for (health or something like that)?
The quest you are having issues with just gives you skill points for money anyway, so I wouldn't be surprised if it gets cancelled after you complete the other quest.
Ok then i´m fine
@teal rose Only the head was visible, if i believe that the hit register is correct, it doesn't count any armor damage and my mates confirmed that he was wearing an armor. I used ammo that would penetrates his arms and probably hit the thorax ( the armor ) but I guess desync saved him or the new accuracy patch just ruined something and it'll get fix soon
has anyone else been having their after match kills and exp and stats be from a previouse match because it keeps happening to me and my friend and we restart our games after time but it doesnt seem to fix it
It's a common bug right now, but it doesn't affect quests or EXP.
Though you can report it using the launcher and attach logs so the devs have more information about the issue.
i have already reported it but was just wondering if it was just a me thing
yo is there a way to make my game load faster
i've already reduced my settings n such
my pc isn't even that bad
So since .12 I've had a issues were I would need to windows tab and open a new window then open task manager. But when I got on today I can't window tab so my pc goes into a endless loading and I have to restart my pc
@neon lantern you can try to replace your local.ini file in Documents > Escape from Tarkov with this one.
And set the fullscreen mode to "borderless" after that.
(you need to adjust your settings again after that)
@teal rose thank you it fixed my game
@near kelp
You can just buy him the 'Europe' version, it's basically the region unlocked version.
@vivid briar
Do you have access to another PC?
can someone help me! i've been trying to buy tarkov and payment always gets cancelled. I have tried using different cards, paypal, even making a new account and trying again. anyone have any advice?
your card is invalid?
Hello can somebody answer my question
@mellow tundra
theres nobody answering
terrible support
500 mod groups and nobody is doing something
poor company
So I'm Stuck
I reinstalled the game but it gets stuck like that I can't do anything the desktop is stuck only the windows button work that's it
I have to shutdown my pc
You can try to replace your local.ini file in Documents > Escape from Tarkov with this one.
And set the fullscreen mode ingame to Borderless after that.
@formal dagger I got it working finally. I deleted the entire game placed the BSG launcher in the same folder with the download and it worked
@mellow tundra i cant put my gun in my pmcs primary weapon slot i get a error everytime and it takes it out of my invintory i cannot play the game
@quasi wyvern you can try to do an integrity check using the launcher then.
@lethal ivy you can try to restart the game and do an online raid.
How do I do that? doesn't the launcher do that at launch
Nope. There is a little dropdown menu near your username.
i have restarted the game a bunch already and how am i gonna to a online raid if i cant put a gun in my invintory
i tried to take all my gear off and i get the same error and it puts all my shit back on me
@quasi wyvern
Just try a raid with your current gear then. @lethal ivy
Maybe you can put a pistol or so into your backpack?
If you don't want to go in without any weapon.
thanks I'm doing it now
i cant move anything into or out of my invin
cool
@teal rose thanks it works now
but it's weird everytime I open it up, my screen goes black
Yeah you need to play around with the fullscreen mode and check what works the best on your PC.
before all this i had a m4 disappear too maybe its still in my invin causing me to not be able to do anything?
can u hide the hud ingame?
@lethal ivy yes, things like that are mostly caused by bugged weapons/items that disappeared.
@quick idol well, the little hud in the bottom-left hides automatically if you don't sprint or change height/speed for a few seconds.
what about top?
Top?
Do you mean the weapon selection bar? It only shows that when you are switching weapons etc.
Unless you enabled "Always show interface elements" in your settings.
i went to night shoreline hid in a bush and killed myself with a nade and it seems to be ok now is there a possibility ill get that m4 that disappeared back i insured it before it vanished it was a hella built one i killed a someone for itd be lame if i lost it that way
Can someone help me? the RB-AO key isn't working
i think i know why that m4 was glitched tho it was built before yall patched being able to have a 20' barrel and a jailbreak so maybe thats why it was being a hoe
@manic mist
Im going to assume since you're playing, you resolved your issue?
also thank you @teal rose for the help i appreciate it
Looking for 1 more @LFG Factory #9
why geforce experience not working? i downgraded it but still not working.ITs your fail... Please fix it...
so got a reply regarding my missing gamma container after i did a profile reset and this was the response "Hello.
An upgrade has been issued to you. You can reset your game profile once every three weeks.
Thank you." does anyone know what they mean by an upgrade has been issued ? because i haven't got my gamma back nor can i reset my profile again to sort it out
Hey guys I moved tarkov from my hard drive to my SSD and now when I launch the game from my SSD I get a msg saying 201 client not authorized and a bunch of russian
@dusty fiber
Make sure you run the game from the launcher.
@digital finch
Did you recently upgrade to EOD?
@formal dagger no ? ive been EOD for like 2 years when i went to reset my game profile well to obviously reset everything i came back on and my gamma was gone
That's absolutely bizzare.
Though support doesn't restore items lost due to bugs atm, at least as far as i know.
wtf thats crazy
i paid for this and i dont get it ? i havent played in over a week because of this
can i sumbit glitches here?
if you med up too much u cant med again, i just died to it after killing 9 players
@formal dagger I set the directory to my SSD, launched from the launcher etc but now I can't even load the launcher
just gonna redownload to my SSD
tossed a grenade and could not shoot my gun when it was in my hands, and 13, 7.62 ps rounds too the chest of a lightly armed target did nothing game is broken af right now
rain comeing into the basement of interchange
@tawdry magnet
@static flower
Submit all bugs though the launcher please.
@dusty fiber
Install CCleaner, run it in registry mode and try again.
rgr will try it out
need help
@wet laurel
Got you settled, I just saw your modmail. 👍
thanks
is it normal for the launcher to install on my hard drive and the game downloading to my ssd?
@dusty fiber '
ive had bad history with launchers on SSD and games on HDD
install them on the same drive
It wont
uhh
When I download the launcher from the site and initiate the install it goes on my hard drive I have no choice
download the launcher on SSD?
Ok, how?
anyone know where I can find NIXXOR lenses and Broken LCDS? Looking to upgrade to security lvl 3
@mild orbit "When I download the launcher from the site and initiate the install it goes on my hard drive I have no choice"
||I have no choice||
yes @formal dagger so i called my bank and they weren't blocking anything. i contacting xsolla support and they allowed me to make the purchase. Thanks for the help!
👍
solution?
@formal dagger
Thank you for all your help and suggestions yesterday. We ended up just replacing his ssd with a m.2 and a new copy of windows and his tarkov stopped crashing and his logs now create in the right directory 🤷
@stiff shuttle
I'm sorry I wasn't able to be more useful, so it must've been something that just wasn't installed or installed right if a pave and reinstall fixed it.
@dusty fiber
CCleaner didn't help?
You're good i think it was beyond tarkov tbh possibly windows related..
Does it let you chose where to install it?
nope
Goto control pannel uninstall then delete the bsg launcher then redownload it
Anyone know a fix on the endless matching for scav?
That's strange, I know the launcher saves the old download in the registry so I thought that was the issue. When you uninstalled the launcher, did you delete the folder it was in?
Yea
I just downloaded it again after doing ccleaner and uninstalling and its doing the same thing
Hrm.
is that going to affect my game at all if the launcher is installed on the hard drive but game is on the ssd?
Nope, that's actually how I'm running it.
Once the games started the launcher doesn't do diddly.
Ok sweet well hopefully it actually installs on the ssd because I got into this whole fiasco when I tried to move the game from my hard drive to my SSD.
It said it was validating game files, something was corrupt, went to repair and bam game broke.
#justtarkovthings
wait
oh my god
its letting me install the launcher on my SSD now for some reason
I did nothing different
Anyone know a fix for the endless matching as scav
try different map
bad service version from battle eye?
does anyone know if battleye HWID bans for EFT
To my knowladge, yes.
Hello. When I aim down sights with a long range sniper scope it seems to move really slow when trying to turn whilst aiming down sights. Is this meant to be like this? Or is a bug? Thanks for any information.
anyone getting a crash at 45% loading loot?
Anyone else having crashing issues on reserve while loading in with discord up?
My discord and tarkov keep crashing and it happens on a few other maps now as well
@opaque spruce
I do, but only when I have too many Chrome tabs open. It happens due to a memory shortage.
I cant "place" quest items, someones has the same issue?
i tried resetting my charakter and also reinstalled tarkov but nothing helped
I uninstalled The Launcher and moved the game file to a new drive, then reinstalled the game launcher in the SSD and in the program set the paths in settings
I reinstalled the complete game to my ssd (befor was on hdd)
What quest are you talking about?
@final bone Did you check your keybinds? make sure its not on double tap for use
@bright prawn i will delete all the config files and will@make a complete new one - thanks for this tip
@teal rose delivery from the past was the first
when I try to update it keeps on saying that something something is in used by another application
You can try to reinstall both the game and the launcher in different locations. I recommend C:\Program Files\BsgLauncher for the launcher and C:\Program Files\EscapeFromTarkov for the game. Make sure to remove any old configs and temporary files.
You can use this simple script to remove those files.
I can confirm the above script is used to delete the following files :
"C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Battlestate Games"
"C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Temp\Battlestate Games"```
And nothing else, it is safe to use if you want to uninstall/reinstall the game.
Anybody able to help with frame-rate unlocking?
What exactly do you mean with that?
I'm trying to get a higher frame rate, i got it once but now it doesn't seem to let me
What FPS do you get? What map? What are your specs?
Short answer ,I was able to get it working on SLI and I was getting it over 160 FPS on Factory
But now it isn't working on single GPU or SLI and I am not getting over 115~
what is strange was in SLI I can only hit 80 FPS in lobby but single GPU i can hit 135 FPS in lobby lol
Well, SLI is a whole different story. I wouldn't be surprised if it is broken right now as well, since there are a lot of Nvidia driver issues right now with Tarkov.
Yeah i had one today i had to roll back 2 drivers
Worse FPS with SLI is common actually.
not for me strangely
Well, depending on the games of course.
with SLI in Factory I'm sitting on 120 FPS, but I HAD* it over 160 at one point and i cannot re-create this
Strictly tarkov
I can prove my performance with SLI, but it isn't allowing me beyond 120
Tarkov is locked at 120 FPS.
You can see it in your graphics settings.
Maybe you can bypass the limit with Vsync if you have a 144Hz monitor, for example?
But that would definitely be a bug.
it's not a bug it's been discussed on the discussion videos with the streamers
The FPS limit? It's not a bug, no. @dim veldt
if so, it makes me instantly think that something is corrupted
@strange badger did you overclock any of your hardware?
nope
Or undervolt.
What did you try to fix the issue so far?
I've no tried to do anything to fix it
just happened yesterday for the first time
I mean I installed my new gpu like 6 days ago
which is also when I bought tarkov
never played it on the old gpu
Did you reinstall your OS after that?
nah
Or any drivers?
Make sure to remove the old drivers as well.
?
@strange badger What was your old gpu
notably if I alt tab it does not carry this over into anything else
what is your current gpu
my old GPU is irrelevant cuz I never played this game on it
what was it
It is relevant.
this game wont be the only game to do this
I had an R9 290x
What PSU?
650 Watts
should be enough
but most notably do a total driver reinstall
driver reinstall might help
before you do anything else
I just want some info to work with
do that and then report back
googling for: driver clean install is your thing to do next
it's one of the gold rated PSUs, I don't remember, the main brand
also tarkov doesnt like other than nvidia GPUs really
the green shit isnt a tarkov thing though
The RX 5700 isn't really known to cause issues with some (decent) PSU's like the 1080 Ti or the old Vegas did.
its a drivers thing
Though the RX 5700 is indeed known for artifacts if you are unlucky.
anyway be prepared to reinstall your windoze if things go to shit
I was asking about PSu because assuming he got something meh it could be an issue
is there anything I can do to test if it actually affects anything that's not tarkov
You can, give me a few minutes.
Is there something?
I wouldnt think so - except for running heaven/etc and seeing if anything happens
I heard MSI Kombuster has an "artifact scanner" that shows issues with Navi cards quite well.
MSI Kombustor - MSI graphics card stress test utility and GPU benchmark
Though as others said, reinstall your driver (the AMD Radeon Software) and reset everything to default in Wattman (Gaming > Global Settings > Global Wattman) before doing any more tests.
hmm okay I'll try it
my PSU shouldn't be a problem because this GPU consumes less power by almost 50% >_<
my card is an MSI brand one
so I'm going to try this kombustor thing
It should work with non-MSI cards anyway.
hmm
well wattman says everything is normal
but I guess I'll reinstall anyways
should I delete my old drivers
for my other card
Of course.
also that kombustor thing didn't know anything but FPS, it couldn't tell GPU Load/Power Draw/Temp, but Wattman shows all of those 🤷
Yeah I noticed that as well. You need to enable the "Artifact Scanner" in the configuration screen.
But reinstall your drivers first and remove all old drivers.
ok
uhh
the only AMD stuff in there is AMD Software, last updated when I installed my new drivers, and AMD OverDrive, which is from like the beginning of the year
Uninstall all of that.
first I should download my new drivers again right
Doesn't matter.
But uninstall it first and delete the AMD folder on your C: drive after that.
ok
After that download the driver software there: https://www.amd.com/en/support
ok
I will be back in 30 minutes or so.
should be noted I have an AMD CPU as well
is deleting the AMD folder going to mess with that at all
Uninstall your current AMD software as well then.
And install the new ones just to make sure.
Do you have a Ryzen CPU?
Alright.
We can check your Motherboard and Chipset drivers when I am back as well if you want.
🤷
dunno if this the right section but i can't update or download the game. It just errors out. before latest update this never happened before.
okay I did all that stuff
still happening
I should note, this only seems to happen when I am alt tabbed after it starts loading loot
!report
Hello @viral granite,
We do not take reports of cheaters here on discord.
In order to report a cheater, please record your game and post the video in this topic :
https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/98098-cheater-video-report-megathread/
Please refrain from accusing anyone here on discord to avoid provocations and conflicts.
Thank you!
@torpid jolt ^ use that link
@strange badger did you try to do the artifact scanner again?
still didn't pick up anything from GPU, only FPS
Just to make sure, did you enable the artifact scanner checkmark?
yep
Hmm.. Can you try to do an integrity check using the launcher?
to be clear, this issue only happens when, on loading into a game, after loading the map but either before or during loading the loot (not sure which), and sometimes after a map on the way to the main menu, and at all times, only when I'm alt tabbed; also nothing else on my PC appears artifacted and in fact the game cursor glides over the artifacting fully intact
integrity check?
here is a screenshot showing that in game I can alt tab without any issues
only when in the loading sequence during that period does this happen
will do
And after that you can try to change the fullscreen mode ingame to something else.
integrity check done, no issues there
one thing I can confirm is that alt+enter removes artifacting when it occurs
although for whatever confounding reason, alt+enter does not actually make tarkov go full screen
I've found another way to reproduce the artifacting
changing screen resolutions in the menu makes it happen about 75% of the time
okay pictured here you can clearly see the mouse cursor is unaffected and displays on top of this weird artifacting bug
Does it happen in windowed mode as well?
it would appear from what testing I've done this is exclusively a problem in borderless windowed mode
trying 15 times in both windowed and in full screen has not reproduced it once
Well, try to use Fullscreen then if possible.
well I don't feel like I can't work around this issue but it doooes seem to be an issue with tarkov itself
which is the main thing I was worried about
Yeah there are a lot of issues right now. I would highly recommend you to reinstall your system, especially now after a quite big hardware upgrade.
unfortunately I'm using Win7 and don't have a 10 available
nor do I have my original install disc anymore
You use USB sticks for that nowadays.
You can just download Windows 10 and create a bootable USB stick to install it, you should just buy a license key (you can buy them online), but it will work alright without one if you can't get one yet.
is it reasonable to conclude this is not a problem with my system or gpu, then?
It is a combination of both I would say. The RX 5700 is known to cause artifacts if you are unlucky. Tarkov itself just did a huge engine upgrade so there are still a lot of issues, especially with compatibility. If you have an USB stick with 32GB or more, we can check if you get artifacts on a different OS as well without installing a new OS or modifying your current OS to check if it is a hardware (your GPU) or software (your OS or Tarkov) issue.
You should be able to just replace your GPU if it is a hardware issue.
how can I actually establish if I have a hardware issue
@strange badger that's a gpu memory artifact issue
☝️
Hi i'm getting this error when i try to access the launcher "Integrity check error unexpected character encountered while parsing value: s. Path ", line 1, position 77824." I tried uninstalling but the same error comes back up, can anything be done about this?
I saw a picture in discord. one player has opened all servers. how is this possible
its normal or not ?
@strange badger windows 10 is free to upgrade from 7
@strange badger https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO
anyone else had issues with downloading the game trough the launcher.
i am getting a few error messages that stop the process
nope
@vivid briar
It could still be a memory problem, running out of memory mid raid Is possible.
@novel ember
What error?
Is it a known bug to get credit for kills you didnt make?
Just went into raid with nothing but a knife. Got killed and it says I killed 3 scavs lol, I definitely did not do even 1hp of damage to anyone
Also one of the kills happened 3 minutes in and I died at 02:31
That's just your end of raid screen desynching. It's showing your performance from a older raid.
They know, but please report all bugs. At the very least, you'll still get credited for all your kills if it happens again.
Yo anyone have links to optimal settings for amd rigs on .12
So I play with 7-10 guys almost everyday. Within the last week we have all been having this issue where we get suddenly disconnected with a message that says "Server lost connection". Is this just a new problem with EFT, or is this the fix that was promised with the stuttering?
keep getting this when downloading or updating the game, never had it do this before
Is there a way to randomise spawns on reserve? I started by getting randomised spawns but now I always spawn in a shit spawn
All spawns are random goes for all maps.
How long does support take to get back with you, I waited a week got a support agent to answer me, responded to the email and it's been another week, was I not supposed to respond to the technicians email adress?
Yeah
What's the issue?
my fps is below 20 aft .12 update
but before my fps was very good
hello plz help bose
What are your specs?
Can you send a screenshot of your current settings?
in game?
Yes.
Dont play on low
what should i play on?
Change the screen mode to "Borderless", the texture quality to "high", the shadow quality to "medium" the LOD quality to "3", the overall visibility to "1000", the shadow visibility to the max (should be 95 or something like that), the antialiasing to "TAA", the Resampling to "1.0 (off)", HBAO to "medium", SSR to "off", Anisotropic Filtering to "On" and Sharpness as well as the four boxes on the bottom to whatever you want.
Try that first and test on customs offline.
Daytime.
kk thanks so much
Im very thankfull that u take time to help people
u r vvery nice guy\
ummmm
my fps is now 10
What CPU do you have?
Did you try what the launcher suggests, a complete reinstall?
I deleted EFT a while ago, and looking to reinstall the game. I went to the webpage and the edition I bought is saying expired. How am I supposed to redownload the game, or am I forced supposed to buy it again?
Did you buy the game from the official website?
Yes
Sounds like you used a trial code you got
No I bought it
write an email to the support
Contact support@escapefromtarkov.com then.
Alright thank you all
Make sure you attach proof that you actually bought the game.
server disconnect every raid
How come it takes forever to join game? it only goes into matching for god knows how long?
is it possible to move tarkov to an external ssd
Pretty sure it is.
my cpu is i7 7th gen 1770
@forest parcel are you playing with laptop?
no
@forest parcel try to do an integrity check using the launcher then.
If that doesn't help, try to disable Vsync. Maybe it is bugged on your end?
You can try to use different GPU drivers as well, since there have been a few issues with Nvidia drivers lately.
@next merlin you can try to select different servers in the launcher.
excuse me @teal rose, could you maybe help me?
@buoyant oasis yes, you can move it to a different drive. Just close the launcher, move the whole game over, start the launcher again and you should have a button that says something like "set path to existing installation". Just select the game folder on the other drive there.
Do you have another issue?
@teal rose yes, for some reason i can't format the external ssd. it's a samsung t5 i used on my console for sometime. i can't seem to do anything with it/
.
i thought i'd try here because google isn't helping at all with that problem
Go to "computer management". There you should find "disk management" where you can format drives manually.
@teal rose im looking now, thanks for taking the time to try and help me
in disk management i see C:, disk 0 partition 3, and system reserved
no ssd
also on the bottom are disk 0 and disk 1
Can you send me a screenshot of what you see?
how do i take screenshots?
You can do a screenshot of all monitors using the Print key.
Or you can just use the snipping tool that comes with Windows.
I cannot return mbss to skier, Ive got 228 error
@teal rose
Right click the Unallocated space in the bottom.
alright
And create a new volume.
"New Simple Volume".
gotcha, assign drive letter "D"
Yeah, or whatever letter you want.
format this volume with file system: NTFS, allocations default, perform quick format, do all of that right?
Since it is an external drive, you can use something in the MNOP range so there is enough room for new built-in drives.
Yes.
You should be able to, yes.
Yes.
its in there
Now go to your launcher settings.
start tarkov?
No.
from D"D
"D"
Just start the launcher and go to the settings.
just click on the new "D" drive?
eft_data?
The folder it is in.
For example if you copied your Tarkov game folder most likely named "EFT (Live)" over to the D drive, you need to select the "EFT (Live)" folder on your D drive.
i opened tarkov from my desktop, is that why im not seeing it?
its doing this now
Alright.
just the one off the desktop
Did you install the game on your desktop then?
yes
Alright.
i copied the desktop and pasted into the new drive
still says the directory is on c drive
Do you just have the EFT folder on your D drive now or anything else as well?
Oh no.
dont say that man
You copied a shortcut.
am i screwed?
No.
nice
yes
bsglauncher, eft, eft(live)
ok its deleting alot of shit
Yeah.
gone
After that you need to copy the "EFT (Live)" folder to your D drive.
leave the launcher in D drive as well?
No.
Just delete that one. It's just a shortcut to the launcher on your C drive.
It's not the launcher itself.
so i should only have eft(live) in D drive
Yes.
alright, its copying everything over
Feel free to rename it to "Escape from Tarkov" after that because "EFT (Live)" looks ugly.
haha i'll do that now
i renamed it and i have eft(live) and the new name in the same folder
Did you rename it while it was copying stuff over..?
yes..?
Well, delete both folders and copy the folder from your C drive over to the D drive again.
Never rename folders while it is copying/moving stuff.
lmao you are good.
lol, thanks for getting me through all of this stuff.
after i rename it, will i be good to go?
Just copy it over first.
@ivory beacon lmaoooooooooo
its copying right now, nearly done
@ivory beacon but you and your boy made a point to rub it in my face how you didnt get banned, and kept using that racist hate speech for no reason lmao, serves your ass right 😂 😂 😂
done copying
Please no witch hunting. @last rose
@buoyant oasis alright, now you can rename it if you want.
Now open the launcher and do this again:
im in there
And select the folder on your D drive.
You need to select the folder you copied to your D drive, not the D drive itself.
Now it should do an integrity check.
Now double check your launcher settings.
how do i do that
And make sure it shows the correct path.
Yes.
all done then?
awesome, thank you so much dude. honestly couldn't have done it without you. it's always going to be plugged in
if i do remove the ssd, will i have to go through all of that again?
shit, ill just buy another ssd for my console then
Oh yeah don't put that thing into your console. The console will most likely wipe the whole disk.
alright, thanks a ton man, really appreciate it]
hey
do someone know what to do when you get the error message "unable to reconnect to the game" when I try to start the game?
hey, what im suppose to do if my gun is not shooting and i cannot shoot with one of my guns? i can only just "cut" with my hatchet and nothing else and i need to restart my game.... i died on this today cause i wanted to fight with people and i got killed by this if i start runing for the relog lol... this game is shit
anyone else getting the 228 moving item error?
restarted my game 4 times now checked for updates
doing integrity check now
Do you guys know approx how long it takes for the staff to respond to a support ticket?
can i use ADAR for peace keeping mission?
transaction for game has gone through but no email with game download or anything on my profile
@dry ocean no
@grand minnow try to do an online raid as PMC.
@dreamy imp some people said they had to wait for more than a week. The support team is very busy right now, sadly.
@icy ermine it can take a few minutes. Give it an hour or even more. If you still didn't get anything after a day, you should contact support@escapefromtarkov.com
okay, thanks
Okay at this point I have put every card in used pay pal tried using a gift card and still it wont let me buy the game whats wrong???
@nimble turret
Contact your bank, they may be blocking the purchase as fradulant.
@teal rose thanks i am done with this game until it comes out its just problem after problem idk why they release games unfinished it should be beta to get feedback then close it down and fix 80% of the problems release it with all the contents then slowly fix the minor bugs and issues
?
wc
@formal dagger Like call them and tell them to let the payment through?
Basically, yeah. My card did the same thing when I bought Tarkov.
@formal dagger Okay so i bought a gift card and then it didnt work so just now I went to there customer support on Xsolla and said LET ME TALK TO A PERSON since the last 2 times I got a bot but right now i got a person to talk too and they helped me get it I had to make a paypal and use a gift card to get this game and talk to support I hope the week I spent trying to get this game payed off because man this whole process amde me want to punch a wall
That's actually very suprising, I've heard nothing but bad things about Xsolla support. However Tarkov will most certainly want to make you punch a wall, I'm afraid that's part of the games nature.
hey need some help, so loaded into a woods game with my american bud, im from the UK and we were matching for ages and we decided to give up but the instant i quite it loaded him into the game but now he's stuck on waiting for players and i cant even get to the main menu of tarkov as it just says unable to reconnect to game
i closed and reopened the game and client and its still doing the same
What has your friend done?
Nothing, I’m in the loading screen still and it’s now been 20 minutes and it still says ‘waiting for players’
I’m the American friend btw
Should I just restart?
Yup, alt-f4 out.
Once you leave it should either cancel the instance or allow both of you to reconnect.
Good to hear, but what's the second issue?
one day ill be able to download this fookin game
i refuse to download a vpn for it though
When Im downloading it, its stuck on 0%
@drowsy trellis Sende a report ticket to BSG
Secondly also relaunch the launcher or restart.
will do
these things are typical in these matchmaking games.. same problem was also sometime for some fro Crytek Huntshowdown...
I got it also in other games .. now I deleted that game from my library but it happens.. asyncrhonicity, servers, loss of packets.. etc
all sorted @formal dagger ty for the help
I am no expert, they will solve it.
Yeah that fixed it, instance ended and we can raid again, cheers!
ive sent a crash report
@cobalt moon
It still sounds like something is disallowing the download, but I may have a fix.
OHHH
alright so since the last patch i have not been able to update the game due to inability to connect with servers or some shit. i thought it might be corrupted files in either the game or the launcher so i uninstalled both. now when i attempt to redownload the launcher it is claiming that the .exe file is not compatible with my computer. has anyone experienced this or knows a fix for this. I have turned off certain security settings that should allow connection and uninstalled any windows updates since the patch dropped just in case it was either of those blocking the downloads
You're having the same issue as Video
Are you in California and on Spectrum as well Rick?
It's got nothing to do with bandwidth, it's got to do with blocked connections.
via the ISP?
Considering you make case #7, that's what it sounds like.
because i removed my own blocked connections and i am now able to download the launcher file but not install onto my computer
which says that this app can't run on your PC
could it be any of my drivers or version of windows that is incompatible? or is somehow the service provider not allowing me to run downloaded content on my machine
That's what it seems like.
didnt work
Hello! Can i request assistance?
@next fog Not yet confirmed
@formal dagger is there any fix to this? or does it require contacting the ISP and having them re-allow access to BSG servers? does BSG publish their domain information to provide to ISPs?
why i can't enter in my profile in the browser?
I bought the standard edition two times. First time i tried it with visa debit card. It got denied and then i tried paypal and it works. But now i can see on my bank account that the payment went through on both payments so i paid u 100 bucks... Is there a way to get 50 bucks back? Please...
@balmy juniper
You'll have to contact Xsolla to get that fixed.
All paymet goes through them.
Ty m8 🙂
For what, exactly?
@tiny flint
can we get in a chat with @tiny flint and @formal dagger and me so i can defend my self ik why he wants to report me
just us 3
Ok hold up here.
@trim forge is an actual insane child
im a witness to the tk i was watching the stream
User testimony is inadmissable as evidance.
If you want to report something, please send video through the @mellow tundra bot.
Just DM it.
cuz there was 5 of us watching helping him cuz hes new
and right here will be the last it's talked about in public channels, are we understood?
yes sir
what you dont see in the clip is he peeks and shoots me while extracting
As I said to them, if you have video evidance, please send it to the @mellow tundra bot.
i want to upgrade to the $100 version of the game because i only have standard right now and i am like $3 or so short on one of my mastercard gift cards. i have another visa gift card that has around $20 and i want to make a split payment to fill in the missing amount on my other gift card. pls help
What have you tried so far?
redownloading 7 times
deleting everything before that
changing password
none have worke
What's your region and ISP?
us and isp is optimum
i use a vpn but its server is in the same county as me
and it doesn't work with vpn off
the loader file shows stuff
so it isnt empty
bruh this is support chat
You heard it from an unofficial source that stated false information.
I'm going through my file of past cases, please give me a moment.
ok
@fresh scaffold
Are you able to reset your router?
yes
Alright, power cycle your router then try and download again.
ok dad
i want to try one thing first so gimme a moment
nvm
@formal dagger didnt work
What is it you tried before the power cycle?
changing mac adress
back to default now
im a fucking retard
i didnt clear cache
Naw
It's always the last thing you think of that fixes it
That be how technology be

ok
he's pulling out the extra sped measures
@formal dagger is it supposed to crash immediatly
the .bat? No.
Oh it's supposed to do that.
ok
Now reinstall everything.
Is there a way I can get a response on my support request on the EFT website
i have a buddy that got the game but he diddnt have the recommended specs, he has a gen 3 cpu and 8gb ram, and he has a really hard time loading into maps. he takes the longest to load in, usually 5 minutes after we all joined, and frequently gets errors. is that a ram/cpu issue?
more ram
@vivid briar also change up the servers youre on you can do that in the launcher
alright thanks man
@formal dagger solved
wait, would changing the servers help him load into games with us faster, or just when hes solo
wait
why i get this message every 5 raid
is there a solution? @formal dagger
@cobalt moon for what
how did you fix your game?
i uninstalled everything and downloaded the file he gave me
@cold wigeon
How are you runnin the game?
i do run as admin
but nothing really out of order
mid lvl graphics this message thing just happen today
Do you run through the launcher or the EFT.exe?
launcher
I was unable to heal myself on labs with my buddy
whats the point in a stainless steal barrel
And the scavs were invisible
When you guys going to offer us another option instead of a fucking VPN?
Wdym @vivid briar
Seems like quite a few of us in the North west area with xfinity cannot download the game
they said use a vpn, which i refuse too
Why should i have to use a damn VPN to install a game?
i DEMAND a refund!
lmao just kidding but its still a crock of shit
dont get me started on the goddamn password timer
lmao
Is there anything anyone can do to help us with this bug
I was unable to heal on labs as invisible fucking scavs ran up on us
You read and accepted the LA. They don’t do refunds.
Reminder that we all accepted the same rules and statements which stated that this game is still in testing and looks to be far from completion.
could someone give me a test key to test the game? pleaseeeee ❤️
It's a small studio that makes a game comparable to AAA games, but don't treat it like a AAA studio.
@next fog There are no active trial keys.
Okay... 
Yeah a lot of stuff have been happening.... last two hot fixes screwed my FPS ... I was getting 120 on low and now can’t even get 40..... scav and player sounds sound like they are right next to you when they aren’t... did clean install of windows and the game still can’t get over 40...
Anyone know what’s up
this is so sad
rip u
If someone can contact the wiki mods about the Hunting trip quest from Jaeger
me and a bud both had the same bug happen
where you turn in all 3 rifles and nothing happens, quest isn't marked as completed
but it fixed itself upon restarting the game
it'd be nice to mention the bug and the fix on the wiki to prevent people from losing their minds over turning in bout 400k worth of guns and nothing happening
hi folks, hoping someone can point me in the right direction on this:
- i had standard edition, and upgraded my stash to level 2 in hideout so that it's the same size as the left behind edition - (10x36)
- 4 days ago i paid an additional $100 to show my support for the game and upgrade to the EOD edition. i got my equipment, but i expected my stash size to upgrade to the amount in the EOD edition, but it didn't. it remained at the 10x36 size (level 2 stash of the standard edition).
- i asked here on discord and people said it might take 24 hours to reflect, so i waited 2 days
- when it didn't, i submitted a support ticket to battlestate games but it's been a few days now and there's been no response. i wouldn't be so concerned about it if it wasn't such a large sum of $ i paid to get the EOD edition 😦
is there anyone i can actually contact about this? cc @mild musk since you've been helpful in the past
How long ago did you send the ticket?
3 days i believe?
I would send them an E-Mail to as well to that E-Mail
Also, did the 3 days include the weekend or nuh
i guess so, looking back on it. maybe it's been 4 days though, i can't remember, id have to look at my receipt
ok emailed them
im just concerned if they reset it or whatever that it'll wipe all of my loot and rubles
Can i get a admin or something
hello am mod
wat u need
also @fallow citrus email that email and wait at least 3 days. you should def get a response
business days*********
thanks 🙂
I cant "place" quest item - deleted all configs, did a fresh reinstall and also resetted my charakter and the problem is still there
i can open doors/examine containers/etc normal only when it comes to quest items (like delivery from the past/golden swag/etc..)
why when im installing its not downloading from launcher?
iam holding
@mild musk
iam not new, did that quest 3 times befor
makes me really sad since this patch is one of the best
Still delivery from the past? @final bone
Yes and golden swag also @teal rose
for me same pc @round ibex
like every day a new problem
@round ibex tehres a maintence at the moment
error downloading essential data? Thats related to the maintenence Im asssumiing?
what does error downloading essential data mean ?
Error Downloading essential data wtf
thanks trinomic 🙂
okk
oh ok i thought my pc was fucking up since it uninstalled bordelrands on its own yesterday lol
no problem
Launcher and Website maitainace is currently underway, please wait until it is finished and watch #eft-announcements for updates.
@analog remnant sounds weird to me... would do a fresh reinstall of windows tbh
How much it will take? @formal dagger
Trojan
@heady frigate
At least an hour
@analog remnant
Download and run that .bat, then restart the launcher.
@formal dagger thanks
Also you won't have to reinstall, just navigate the launcher back to the folder you have Tarkov installed to.
hey guys for some reason i cant finish the "bad rep evidence" quest because when i get to the place the folder is not there. please help
@chilly igloo
Did you die between getting the folder and going to place it?
@formal dagger got it thanks:) on another note any update on why matching times on all EU are so long ?
@formal dagger yes. i tried to place it again but it didnt work
I'm geting a 205 205 - bad account ID when I try to start up the game, is it just a maintanace issue?
@analog remnant
Matching issues can be caused by both server AND user connection configurations.
@brazen warren
Yup, give it an hour or so then try to play again.
@chilly igloo
Once you die, you lose drop-items from your quest inventory.
@formal dagger thank you
@formal dagger ok but its only been this patch they have been so bad for me , feels like the game is running less servers or something ?
@formal dagger ok so how do i get it again ?
@analog remnant
Now that's a question that's a bit above my paygrade, as far as I know there's still the same amount of servers. The best thing I can suggest is a router factory reset and a DNS flush, along with other generic network troubleshooting suggestions.
@chilly igloo
You just have to go pick iit up again.
@formal dagger the problem is that i tried and i didnt find the folder
@formal dagger i can try that but others are having the same issue i raised a ticket and havent heard anything
I will admit that I'm only a volunteer here, but it seems like whenever there's a update and connection issue something changed on Tarkovs end but the users system just doesn't update itself correctly. I get something similar every few patches or so, a router reset usually does it for me.
At least that's what I've gleaned from practically living in here. 
ok il try thanks at least i can get help here since raising a ticket seems to do nothing lol
I do know for a fact BSGs support is super swamped right now, so Ticket responce time is a bit long.
sounds like they need to hire lol
BB
Sadly that's much easier said than done, and you have to think about the turnaround time to get Techs accustomed to completely new software and its quirks.
and @vivid briar
There's maintainace going on right now, please watch #eft-announcements for updates.
Oh okay so we can't play? When is it going to end?
As I said, please watch #eft-announcements for updates.
Oh is this why I'm getting error 209 when I try to launch the game ?
thanks for info, just had same error

Like I don't have access right now
which depresses me cause I wanted to play before work. :c

try to update your luncher
Until the update is done, I don't think that'll help.
Any idea how I can get my IP unbanned from the website ? I messaged support days ago and never got a reply, my IP has been blocked for like 3 weeks now
@queen scaffold
Are you getting a 403 or the strange traffic error?
no I'm getting a white page with text at the top telling my "Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. Your connection has been blocked temporarily, try again later."
btw @formal dagger do you know what happen to the tel-aviv server that was added couple days ago?
when I try to login
(with my IP at the start of the message but I'm not putting this here lol)
@eager mirage
I'm only a Discord Volunteer, so I wouldn't know.
i guess ill go open a ticket then 😩
oh launcher update 
@formal dagger i just went to the customs to the place and there is not folder https://gyazo.com/cfe56f6e454dccc5a082a531d88f4852
I get a 403 error on the launcher every time because of that IP thing but I was logged in the launcher with memorize pw before IP ban luckily so I can still play
@queen scaffold
I honestly don't know, I'm sorry. BSG support usually bounce people between themselves and cloudflares support with no help.
It'd be worth a shot to contact them anyway though.. support@battlestategames.com
yeah I sent them a mail a couple days ago, I guess I'll wait more
I can still play so it's ok
@chilly igloo
If that's the case and it's not in your offline quest inventory, then I'm afraid you'll just have to submit a bug report and contact support.
@queen scaffold
I have something similar on the forum, I can't access the forum on my PC but I can on my phone.
yeah that's the issue I'm having rn, it's really just an IP thing so I might just call my ISP and have them renew my IP or smth
That may help.
@chilly igloo Somebody must have taken it already?
No Horse, quest items are client side.
nah
Oh ok
what is the mail to contact them @formal dagger
Has anybody idea on how to solve error 206... I mean I put my new user and mail.. but i have 2 attempts left.. that's not nice.
@chilly igloo
Support@battlestategames.com
@vivid briar
Please send a E-mail to support.
Seems like quests are bugged this patch
Iam stuck in delivery from the past, cant "place" quest items
Thanks
I solved it, BUT THANKS for the answers!.. by using the FORUM login as an informing personal solution:
forum tag bar on top is very useful ( basically it says that the change .. i thought was the problem... is happening in next hours. not yet happened)
so I just retyped what is my old login and it worked.. I dnt know however why the game launcher prompted me after 2 errors (one Data missing something, and one just froze on loading 3 balls icon we have befor elauncher opens) then asked me for login...
I supposed that it was for address change but I was just confused...
Sometimes (often) over reacting to issues causes more issues.
My launcher is bugged. After clicking restart it goes to extracting and then to rolling back changes. This happens every time.
When installing the game or when updating the launcher?
After updating
You can try to just reinstall the launcher then.
And use this script before that to get rid of old configs and temporary files.
Go to Control Panel > Programs and Features and uninstall the BsgLauncher first.
After that run the bat. If you are not sure about what it does, Mathieu verified that it's not any virus or bad thing here: https://discordapp.com/channels/521608697764380694/521614489884295169/648468234059776023
After that just download and install the launcher again.
can we backup EFT files, so that i don't need to download the files if i using new PC? just like steam backup
Do you mean config files?
the game files. I have slow internet and i want to move my game to another pc..
You can just copy the files over using an USB stick, for example.
You should find it in C:\Battlestate Games\EFT (Live). Just copy the EFT (Live) folder to the other PC, install the launcher and "click set path to existing installation" or something like that. It should give you the option to select the folder you copied over.
thank you, will try
I'm having a wierd issue. Played eft yesterday without problems. Today when launching Bsg launcher, the button has changed from "Play" to "install" as if it magically got uninstalled. Trying to install it but nothing happens. Anyone know what this is?
