And then use the button above the install button to point to that folder

And it will scan it and then you can play.

[rotund swift]

i just needed to drag the items to the folder im so sorry

[slim spruce]

It's alright.

[vivid briar]

Can someone please help me figure out whats wrong with my gunsmith part 14

[unkempt crane]

Check the foregrip. You're likely using a dark gray one, whereas the black one is required.

[amber nexus]

newb question just hit 15. it says i can only have 2 different things up for sale at a time?? is there a way to increase this?

[slim spruce]

If you get 30.0 flea market rep.

Each 0.01 is 50k sold

[tawny drift]

Question: Why is glukhar attacking me now? In the past I was able to stand among him and his guards. Lately Ive been getting insta killed by him/his guards.

[median ruin]

Another pscav probably pissed him off

[stuck briar]

It’s random chance at 6.00 scav rep your always 100% able to chill with scav bosses but as your rep lowers it becomes random so like a 3.00 rep u have a 50% chance of them shooting u on sight or 50% chance of a vibe. (This also counts with a respective bosses guards)

I hope that makes sense

Along with that I would like to add is that if you have a positive scav rep but they will still shoot u if your unlucky enough, the guards or boss usually give some sort of hand signal or warning before they open fire. For example reshalas goons usually will come outside of wherever reshala is hiding and do a little hand wave kinda like shooing u away. They will also voice line and yell at u in Russian. Just small things to look out for.

[amber nexus]

another newb question. can i put a keytool inside a doc case?

[slim spruce]

no

[amber nexus]

ah darn.

idk wtf is going on but i cant find key 220 at all

been to that damn train car so many times

[lament prism]

so tired of these pointless updates

stop doing small updates every 2-3 days it fucking annoying as shit when i cant play on my day off because you dumb fucks wanna update the server every week

[fierce marsh]

Imagine having to shut the game down to just push an update

[amber nexus]

told me to shut down to update but launcher is not updating

[lament prism]

oh that fucking great yall fucking lie saying the update gonna take 2 hours and now it gonna be 4 hours. fucking dumbshit devs

[torn light]

planned update "Tomorrow, February 22, at 10:00 MSK we are planning to install patch 0.12.12.15.3. The installation will take approximately 2 hours, but may be extended if required. The game will not be accessible during this period #EscapefromTarkov"

and yes it is 10 am MSK

[lament prism]

that 2 hours shit is a lie they are saying 4 hours cause they are fucking Rtards

[torn light]

dude calm down it is a beta in active development if you get this pissed I would take a few weeks off

[lament prism]

not everyone can afford to take holidays when mommy and daddy pays all ur bills

[cunning dock]

I was playing, then it forced me to close the game. Now I get this error when I try to launch. Help?

I tried logging out and back in, I tried doing the integrity check, I restarted my pc

[faint stag]

whate your avg fps guys?

im having a 2070 super and getting only 60, i dont get it..

240hz monitor tho

[gritty light]

ive got a 2060 with 80-90 on most maps (not lighthouse)

[faint stag]

hm, what am i doing wrong

[gritty light]

no clue, whats your settings?

could also be cpu bottleneck potentially?

[gritty light]

no idea why you have a problem

[faint stag]

😥

[gritty light]

I know what it could be, sometimes nvidia reflex likes to lock your fps to 60

I did some guide to unlock fps with nvidia reflex, just look up that and see what you find

[gaunt valley]

with tarkov shooter pt 1, can i have a laser on the gun or no?

[weak mortar]

i tried to login today but i got this instead on my first try. Does this mean somebody tried to hack my account?

also if failed to login ones the lockout timer should not last 1 hour right?

[gritty light]

why can't I go top sight with the HAMR? im pressing control right click

[steady cosmos]

you dont have a top sight attached

[gritty light]

ah, I thought it came with one

[steady cosmos]

the red dot that goes on the top is a different attachment, https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Leupold_DeltaPoint_Reflex_Sight

[steady cosmos]

sadly nothing is that simple in tarkov lol

[slate wagon]

Can we get a new download link up??

[quiet summit]

Initial lockout is 1 hour

[weak mortar]

oh

now i loged in normally now

[quiet summit]

Cool

[nova urchin]

Hmmm, I think I have broken the mission Chemical Part 1, I handed in the key without first visiting the room 🤦

[quiet summit]

Nope! You're allowed to do that.

Now you need another 220 key

[nova urchin]

DOH!
Ive checked the spot a few times, no-go, so I thought I had broken the quest

[quiet summit]

Yeah spawn rate not 100%

[nova urchin]

Well Ill "have in my feet what I didnt have in my head" as we say here in the north 🤦

[slim spruce]

If you have problems downloading/installing the update/game :

We suggest the following workaround. It will allow you to install without using the launcher directly.
Game download link : http://cdn-11.eft-store.com/client/live/distribs/0.12.12.15.16909_31b5fd6c-e36b-46d4-9c6e-60df99237dc0/Client.0.12.12.15.16909.zip
Once downloaded, please extract it where you want the game to be installed, for example : D:\Games\EFT\EscapeFromTarkov.exe

After that, in the launcher you can specify the path to the directory with the game, in this example you will need to specify the directory D:\Games\EFT.

Using this method, you will have installed the game manually.
**If you have any problems doing so, or any question, please open a request in the launcher - bug report section. **
While moderators can assist, they do not have all the tools and knowledge to do it in the best of ways here on discord.

[quiet summit]

New download link!

[slate wagon]

All hail @slim spruce our saviour!!!

[main widget]

Wasnt getting backend errors anymore and the servers were pretty stable. after this update today I've gotten a ton of backend errors. fyi

[quiet summit]

What error code?

[main widget]

aww didn't get it. Ill SC the next one. 99% of the times is when you are picking something up from a crafting module or clicking purchase on an item in the flee. And you get stuck in a never ending loading circle. And you cant move items of you get the disco ball blinking.

[quiet summit]

Oh ok, it might just be general server lag then

Hope it doesn't stay for dinner.

[neon merlin]

is there anyway to reset my scav karma, i never even knew it was a thing until recently, and now i have -8.9 lol

[quiet summit]

There is no way unless you reset all progress

There are tasks on Fence that you can do to regain karma though

[neon merlin]

is it possible to regain -8.9 karma though lol

[quiet summit]

It will probably take you 1 month+ at least i'm going to be honest

Just do those Karma tasks from Fence

[neon merlin]

ok, thanks

[delicate wharf]

anyone else having losing connection problems today? i

[quiet summit]

Yes, not just you ; a bit of lag

[dusty cargo]

why is it that when I have items in my backpack on my pmc either in raid or in menu, the item is blurry but when I take it out of my backpack/rig and into my stash, it looks fine

Some items are blurry even in containers

[silver trout]

same for me^

some frames for item slots are only half visible too

like the tv109+106 rig its weird

[dusty cargo]

I thought I was just trippin' for a sec lol

[hybrid ravine]

I have some truble getting my account back, i lost my email and battlestate dont answer my emails about that, can anyone help me??

[light crystal]

does flashlight give bonus to hipfire like laser? Because i see streamers using only flashlight when they can also use flashlight with laser to have the bonus hipfire accuracy?

[hearty ledge]

Im not getting any emails from battlestate including verification, ive tried whitelisting and reinstalling the launcher

[silver trout]

yes it does

[slim spruce]

Tried the tips on this page? https://forum.escapefromtarkov.com/topic/111372-not-recieving-an-e-mail-verification-code-from-launcher/page/47/?tab=comments#comment-1896140

[plucky sonnet]

Has this hotfix provided any noticeable performance fixes i.e stuttering ingame and memory leaks?

[quiet summit]

No, if the attachment does not have a laser function built in it will not give the hipfire bonus

You can have a just the flashlight on, andnot the laser or IR enabled; but it needs to have the laser functions togglable somewhere in there

[hearty ledge]

I've tried all these and none of them have worked, I also cannot login on the website as the same issue occurs

[slim spruce]

You will need to email [e-mail] then

[brittle meteor]

ayo, m80's or bcp fmjs better? for scar heavy

[hearty ledge]

They are yet to reply, I've been waiting for nearly 3 weeks

[slim spruce]

Unfortunately we can't help with account issues on the discord.

[quiet summit]

https://eft.monster/ M80's have better penetration.

[hearty ledge]

Understandable, thanks anyway

[merry vine]

does someone know why i never unlocked the quest ''terragroup employee'' after i did the quest ''huntsman path sadist'' ?

[brittle meteor]

ty

[quiet summit]

Sure 😄

[quiet summit]

Did you restart your game after completion?

[merry vine]

i have completed that quest for weeks now

[quiet summit]

Have you completed the task Samples from Peacekeeper?

[merry vine]

nah

[quiet summit]

That is also a prerequisite

[merry vine]

doesnt say on the tarkov wiki

[merry vine]

just need the 3btg stim then i guess 🥲

[quiet summit]

Yes it does.

[merry vine]

ohhh fuck i over read that

[quiet summit]

Meldonins the harder one to get, you're lucky!

[merry vine]

used to find them all the time on lighthouse before the nerf

and i think the 3btg is harder since its on labs only or player scavs (which will prob never spawn on a player scav)

[quiet summit]

I've gotten 3 3btg spawns on my playerscav so far this wipe, No Meldonin yet

[merry vine]

what? really?

[quiet summit]

mhm mhm

[merry vine]

damnnnn

[vivid zodiac]

hey, can someone help me with something? I'm experience severe fps drops when I'm in a raid, things like shooting and sometimes even just looking around can reduce my fps to single digits. Is this just due to the games poor optimisation or is there any graphical settings that can help fix this. My specs are a 3060, ryzen 5 5600x and 16gb of ram. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[quiet summit]

How is your ram usage while you're having those problems?

Do you have Vsync or supersampling on?

Also do you have only use physical core senabled?

[vivid zodiac]

vsync and supersampling are off and my ram is sitting at about 85% but I have some other stuff open (few chrome tabs etc)

[vivid zodiac]

I don't know, where can I find that under?

[quiet summit]

Under game settings

[quiet summit]

If you haven't set your pagefile size
Windows + R
Open your run page and type in 'control sysdm.cpl'
Go to the advanced tab, under perfomance hit settings
Advanced again, and change the paging file size
Select an SSD drive
Untick automatically manage paging file size for all drives
Use 8000-16000 minimum and 25000 maximum
Once you’ve entered your size of virtual memory, click Set, then click OK to apply the changes.

[vivid zodiac]

yeah its enabled

[quiet summit]

Disable that

[vivid zodiac]

alright gotcha

what else?

[quiet summit]

You've done the pagefile size? Try seeing if you get bogged down now

[slim spruce]

What error do you see?

[celest dagger]

If I buy tarkov using a vpn to change my location in europe to get lower VAT will the game be unplayable / country or region locked?

[muted flume]

Would that not be tax evasion?

[tired star]

Is the 12400f good enough for tarkov

[slim spruce]

Make a folder in that folder called EFT and install it there

C:\battlestate games\EFT

Where is the launcher installed?

[slim spruce]

yes

like c:\battlestate games\BSGLauncher?

The game can't be installed to the same folder as the launcher

[slim spruce]

Are you running the launcher as admin?

Try that

Try disabling firewalls and internet protection on your firewall/antivirus

See the manual method in the pins to install that way.

[bleak pine]

everytime i load into a game doesnt matter if its scav or pmc it loads everything and then just freezes on awaiting session start and the i get a connection lost after like 5 minutes any one know how to fix it? tried installing it on my ssd reinstalling the game changing servers

[slim spruce]

Can you try a vpn to a nearby location to test?

[bleak pine]

dont have vpn

[slim spruce]

Has it worked before?

[bleak pine]

yea it did but it hasnt worked for the last 2 weeks smth like that

[quiet summit]

You've tried disabling firewalls/defender/antivirus and stuff?

[bleak pine]

yes still same result

[quiet summit]

Are you able to play offline raids?

[bleak pine]

trying rn

yes it is working

[slim spruce]

Try disabling IPV6 on your windows network adapter

[bleak pine]

tried it but still not working

[slim spruce]

Try a VPN and see if it works. If so, the problem is ISP related.

You may need to ask your ISP for prioritized IPV4 support if the VPN works.

This will require tier 2 support as your ISP will not know what that means.

[bleak pine]

ok ty ill try it

[bleak pine]

ive tried only on reserve but i just checked and this problem only happens on reserve but works on other maps do you have any idea why?

[slim spruce]

That's a better problem. I'd check to see if you're on wifi and use wired only.

[bleak pine]

wired only

[slim spruce]

It could be a game problem if other maps have no problems. Please submit a bug report in the launcher.

[bleak pine]

i will ty appriciate it

[main lichen]

did anyone else noticed blurry item icon textures after the update ?

[quiet summit]

You're not the only one, four others have mentioned it today.

[main lichen]

Thank god, it would freak me out, non of my friends seem to have it

[quiet summit]

Your GPU is melting!

I'm sure it will be patched out later

[main lichen]

hopefully, my eyes hurt, they are trying to focus like an out of focus camera would and failing, giving me mini headaches lol

[winter bramble]

anyone else experiancing weird stutters since the patch earlier

[tight plover]

never seen this before o.o

[quiet summit]

Seems like there's some server issues at the moment.

[north juniper]

Certainly there are

[tight plover]

Ill post again if it continues I didnt notice any issue in game personally

[north juniper]

im stuck at infinite scav extract

black screen and no progress

[quiet summit]

There may be no way to get your account back.

Bans are handled through BattlEye, thus any appeals are also handled through there.
https://www.battleye.com/contact/
They state you are responsible for your own account somewhere in there, you can read more up on https://www.battleye.com/support/

[tight plover]

BSG needs to put 2FA in place at some point tbh

[quiet summit]

Absolutely.

[north juniper]

There's email based 2FA

[quiet summit]

There's email confirmation though

Yeah, access from new hardware

[tight plover]

thats weird, usually your email goes first and then they reset your email aswell

at least that happened to me that way with a diff game

[plucky sonnet]

Any idea why tarkov does this? Only on lighthouse and partway through interchange.

[slim spruce]

Looks like a slow hdmi cable.

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce I'm not entirely sure I'm using the arc port. Would that make a difference?

[slim spruce]

Try another port. And another cable.

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce I switched it to the arc port and it seems okay for now. I'll test it again on my next scav run.

[slim spruce]

Ok

Usually this is caused due to a cable that is not fast enough for the data you're streaming

[plucky sonnet]

I think it's also part of lighthouses' unoptimized state. Every other map runs great except it.

Just had to force close the game because it was running 13gb of ram.

[kind crown]

Does anyone know why my hideout is stuck loading forever

it just pulls up the loading circle and spins

<@&551452465233657859>

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce yeah after restarting the game it's still doing it. I'll probably just avoid lighthouse until it gets optimized.

[slim spruce]

restart your game

[kind crown]

@slim spruce I have and my computer

@slim spruce Any ideas

[slim spruce]

clear the cache in the launcher

top right on your name > clear cache

[kind crown]

@slim spruce No luck it is still stuck I also cannot load into games either

[sand mesa]

I know this has been discussed at length. I’ve tried about fifteen different solutions found in forums. But I can’t login because a verification code isn’t being sent to my yahoo email. Any additional suggestions?

[radiant ivy]

it might be in your spam. i know mine automatically goes there for some reason

[slim spruce]

Please submit a bug report in the launcher.

[sand mesa]

Completed empty. 😦

[grim magnet]

Is there any way for my friend to get some money back from his standard purchase? i know refunds normally arent done, but he quite literally bought the game earlier today (around 16:00 GMT+1) and then it went on sale now 😅

[chilly hemlock]

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/389
Doubtful because it was in plain sight that there'd be a sale

[slim spruce]

Unfortunately not.

[grim magnet]

He bought the game before i could tell him to wait :/ (he wanted to suprise me cuz i've been telling him to buy it for a while)

[grim magnet]

oh well, tough luck ig

[plucky sonnet]

I cleared my cached shaders, changed my page filing and dropped my settings to medium and now lighthouse works but I'm still getting that HDMI issue. What kind of cable should I buy?

[slim spruce]

What resolution are you playing at?

[plucky sonnet]

1920x1080

[slim spruce]

Does the TV do this with other devices with this cable?

[plucky sonnet]

Nope. It's literally only lighthouse and partway through interchange raids.

[slim spruce]

So it happens during raids?

Not just loading?

[plucky sonnet]

Lighthouse it happens after 100% map loading, interchange it happens give or take 5-10 minutes into raid. All other maps are perfect.

[slim spruce]

I'd suggest changing chroma subsampling to 4:2:0 instead of RGB/4:4:4

This can be done in nvidia settings

[plucky sonnet]

What exactly will that do?

[slim spruce]

It lowers the bandwidth by 75% by sending less color information

all movies you have seen on blu ray are 4:2:0 along with tv

pc monitors however do 4:4:4

[plucky sonnet]

So it won't make a huge difference with my visuals?

[slim spruce]

Almost undetectable unless you know what to look for

This will test to see if it's a bandwidth issue with the cable and tv

[plucky sonnet]

What's the setting under?

@slim spruce

I found it.

[slim spruce]

422 is the next best thing if your graphics card can't send 4:2:0

[plucky sonnet]

I'll let you know when I load into my next lighthouse but for now it's fixed.

[slim spruce]

Ok

[plucky sonnet]

I'm on 4:2:2.

[slim spruce]

That sends half the color information

But still full luma

our eyes are more sensitive to light levels than color

so this is how video sizes can be smaller - regardless of codec

[twilit citrus]

Anyone occasionally get infinite matching times? If so, does anyone know a fix?

[slim spruce]

On what part of loading?

[twilit citrus]

"Matching"

[slim spruce]

Try choosing more servers.

[twilit citrus]

Def not a server iss

Issue, it's 100% a bug when connecting

[slim spruce]

Submit a bug report in the launcher.

[lethal obsidian]

Getting this error message after trying to install new update... Any suggestions?

Tried verifying and repairing game

[slim spruce]

open the launcher as admin

[lethal obsidian]

Ok ill try

[thin torrent]

lads if I upgrade my account will I receive a gift with the gamma and the game will just adjust my stash size or do I have to reset?

[lethal obsidian]

You dont have to reset

[slim spruce]

No resetting anymore

It's given to you in the mail.

from SYSTEM

[thin torrent]

all I care about is getting the gamma and max stash so I will get that without having to reset?

[slim spruce]

Yeah

[thin torrent]

sikk thanks

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce nope it's still doing it.

[lethal obsidian]

still getting the same error message when updating

[slim spruce]

A 422 signal is very demanding of the TV and maybe the cable. Does this happen on a monitor with this same cable?

[slim spruce]

Add the launcher folder and the game folder to the exclude list / white list on your antivirus and also windows defender.

Or turn off active protection on your antivirus

[lethal obsidian]

I only have the default windows antivirus

do you know where i would add to the exclude list

[slim spruce]

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/add-an-exclusion-to-windows-security-811816c0-4dfd-af4a-47e4-c301afe13b26

[lethal obsidian]

Wow thx

[plucky sonnet]

I'm not sure.

[slim spruce]

You have a pc monitor somewhere with an HDMI port?

Or another HDMI cable to see?

[slim spruce]

after adding the folders reboot and try again

The launcher and game folder

[lethal obsidian]

Ok will do

[wet patio]

Hey, I just bought the game and I’m having a major issue with screen tearing

It’s… extremely bad

[lethal obsidian]

Thank you! it worked. may tagilla spare u!

[plucky sonnet]

unfortunately I don't.

[slim spruce]

what hdmi cable do you have?

[plucky sonnet]

It said it was a high speed cord but it looked pretty old so I replaced it with a newer high speed I got from installing comcast tech.

[slim spruce]

tried all the hdmi ports on the tv?

[plucky sonnet]

I'm gonna see how this new cable behaves.

[slim spruce]

Alright. Usually black screen flickering means the cable is not good enough for the data being streamed.

It should also drop the sound.

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce still does it with the new cable.

[slim spruce]

Is this coming from a laptop or desktop?

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce desktop

[slim spruce]

It could be either the TV can't handle the bandwidth or the hdmi cable can't handle it. I am not sure from the info I have.

[plucky sonnet]

@slim spruce E324703 High speed HDMI cable. 80c 30v.

[slim spruce]

That looks very cheap and could be a problem, but 1080p at 4:2:2 is not really that much info unless you have high fps above like 70

I'd try locking fps in nvidia control panel to 59 max

In global settings

Try 4:2:0 if you can. Sometimes there's no option for that.

[plucky sonnet]

I don't have the option

[slim spruce]

Try limiting the FPS to 30 just to see.

If it still happens with that, it's a TV problem.

[plucky sonnet]

Why would it be with just two maps?

[coarse phoenix]

have a glitch where when i put ap 20's in a revolver shotgun they disappear

happened twice idk where to report bugs

[slim spruce]

in the launcher

[tardy granite]

Anyone else have a blurry main menu after patch. icons are blurry and ui is cut off.

Icons:

my settings:

[hardy python]

yea i do too

anything in bags or containers is blurry

[tardy granite]

hurts my eyes

[hardy python]

it's a global bug should get fixed soon i hate it 2

[tardy granite]

ok ty, i was about to reinstall

[vivid briar]

So i was on facotry and i extracted and it put me a black screen and i waited bc i know its a bug that happened before but i reset my game and its saying im still in a raid?
But im reconnecting and it says i lost connection and puts me back into the menu saying im still in a raid

And i wanna just leave and press exit but i dont want to lose the loot i have just in case if it dosnt give me it

This is what happens when I reconnect

I decided to leave and i lost all the stuff i got and im guessing theres no way to get the loot i earned back

[vivid briar]

why does the game look bad like it looks more blurry, items in bag or in raid looks blurry it happened only after the most recent patch

is it just me and im tripping ? or is it for everyone

[vivid briar]

i keep getting kicked out every minute mid raid, doesnt happen every raid

[vivid briar]

Yeah it didnt do that for me I was at extract and it went to a black screen and i was stuck there for like 10 minutes and then i alt f4 and now it didnt let me do anything but i just left the match bc it let me and I lost all the loot that i got out with but had all the loot i came in with

But i dont disconnect during raids

[arctic brook]

Hey guys i need help. Recently I start having a problem with my texture loading. The grass for maybe 75 meter only load when i walk toward them and the shadow are to much black.

[sharp pagoda]

Sup guys im a new member, i have just bought the game and i've been trying to dowload it for the last 3 hours... at first, it said downloading and was stuck at 0 mb so i kept restarting the laucher and my computer and nothing happened, so then i just let the laucher do its thing and sit at 0 mb and turns out it downloaded it but my files keep comming out corrupted... it always give me Error 109002, do you guys know how to fix this?

[obtuse sentinel]

Hey, does anyone else have issues with certain menu textures "tearing" or creating lower res versions of themselves? This is happening to my graphics settings arrows (see attached), and sometimes the text on items is all disjointed and makes everything look like garbage.

[nova urchin]

Um, im trying to buy EOD and I own the standard edition, but it still wants me to pay €75 euros even though it suppose to be €60

[ancient fractal]

Is anything wrong with the OCE servers? my friend disconnects every two minutes and my game has crashed twice

this has only happened today

[ebon zodiac]

Hello good Morning. I'm having performance issues with the game, I have an 8GB RX 580 an i3-8100 and 16GB of 2400MHz RAM and I'm experiencing massive FPS drops in areas like Interchange (Mantis area, Brutal, etc) as well as the reserve bunker. I can't get a stable 60 FPS on any map and I've already tried and touched everything, does anyone have the same problem?

Last year (before they applied the new graphics engine) I had none of these problems, even reaching over 70 FPS on almost all maps.

Reinstall Windows (now I'm trying one called KernelOS, for better performance) format everything, change processor and motherboard thermal paste, clean the PC, etc.

Also I have the game in a SSD

[quick kite]

It probably has to do with your CPU. The game is not as optimised, and sometimes you might experience fps drops. Other than lowering your overall settings, not much you can do about it

[ebon zodiac]

It's weird because last year was playing perfectly, with the same specs, I didn't change nothing.

I got great FPS in open zones, but when I go into houses, bunkers, or stuff like that I got a significant framedrop

[nova verge]

Not sure if right place , but I’m wanting to upgrade to the EOD edition from standard, but there’s like no price discount for upgrading . Like I’m legit paying more if I want to upgrade ? Or am I not doing something right.

Thank you for any help.

[ebon zodiac]

I know my CPU is complety shit... But GPU should make the work that it doesn't does the CPU

[quartz rapids]

overclock your CPU, for some reason tarkov really likes high clockrates more than any other game i have seen.

[quartz rapids]

Log in and you should see the discount

[ebon zodiac]

how to]?

[errant sluice]

There is an issue with some loot spawn on lighthouse dead body in the usec house where you can see it but cant pick it up. This happened to a friend. And happened to me just 1 raid before where there was loot spawning inside the body, it gave me the dot to see it but couldnt pick it up? where should i report this>?

[quartz rapids]

I would watch a video. i dont feel confident in doing that over textmessages :P

[errant sluice]

What cooler do you have aswell? overclocking bump up temps alot

[quartz rapids]

Depends on the overclock. its exponential pretty much

[ebon zodiac]

Sure, you're right. Thanks.

Maybe I shouldn't overclock it, it scares me...

Don't wanna lose all my funds hahahah

[quartz rapids]

I have my cpu at 5,2 ghz. i would probably go for a nice calm 4,7 ghz.

What cpu do you have firstly?

[ebon zodiac]

With an i3?

i3-8100 3.6GHz

[quartz rapids]

Never mind! You cant OC them

[ebon zodiac]

Yeah...

Another question

I'm actually using a custom Windows 10

It's Kernel OS, it's recomedable to use it?

Or I have to use normal Windows

I've been trying differents but...

[quartz rapids]

I uhh, dont know. i am actually unfamiliar with that

I thought every OS was kernel thingy

[serene valve]

i have the standard version of EFT. Is is true that if i were to upgrade to the EoD version that my progress will be reset?

and all my gear gone?

[ivory sinew]

Guys , please give me a suggestion
trying to play with my friend from Chille, from Georgia country

is there any south african servers , or some kind of middle placed countries so both of us would have stabile ping ?

[steady cosmos]

same for everyone pretty much

[muted flume]

Unless you upgrade with the game open you shouldn’t have to reset

Just make sure to close the game first

[light kiln]

2 Weeklys? Presuming this is a bug

[quiet summit]

I would suggest both of you open your server browser on your launcher and just compare numbers, you read off pings good to you, and he tells you if he also has low ping

[muted flume]

I had 2 sets of daily’s going on at the same time yesterday

What is that file name…

[tropic trail]

gay gum

[muted flume]

Understandable

[glossy bluff]

Hey Guys, maybe some could help me. I got EFT yesterday and managed to spawn once at Customs. Since then it takes 20 minutes to load and before i connect i get a connection lost message. No map works for me at me moment except Factory, there i can join within 2 minutes. When the game is loading the loot it gets very slow at around 60%. Maybe someone experienced similar problems

[quiet summit]

Hello! Please find out what motherboard you have and download your latest chipset drivers! If you have AMD armory then even easier, just download those drivers on there.

[glossy bluff]

Thanks for the quick response, i will try that

[quiet summit]

Sure thing! Update me!

[verbal dagger]

Does anyone else’s .ini file say 60hz refresh rate? Changed it last night after seeing an old guide to 144hz and ticked ‘read only’ and its stayed every time i boot up the game. Just wondering if it stays there and actually has an effect or if theres something going on behind the scenes that doesn’t look at or care about the refresh rate statement in the .ini file?

[wet dew]

You don't lose scav karma for killing raiders right?

[quiet summit]

Raiders, no. Guards, yes

You just have to get used to what they're wearing, Guards will wear blue camo pants

[wet dew]

Alright ty

[glossy bluff]

Updated drivers for my Intel Chipset. Now I am stuck at this for some minutes and then i get a black screen with an error message saying server connection lost

[quiet summit]

You did update via your motherboard website correct?

[glossy bluff]

yes

[quiet summit]

Do you have a manual selection of servers on your launcher?

[glossy bluff]

YYes I have but I also tried with automatic server select

[quiet summit]

Ok please relaunch your launcher in admin mode, turn off your defender/firewall/antivirus, select ~3 servers on your launcher for now

[glossy bluff]

Ok I will try it now, going to update you

[lilac kiln]

Any idea on what to do?

[quiet summit]

That's a new one, try and move the items into your stash instead of in a container?

[lilac kiln]

Tried it right now. Doesnt help :/ Thanks for the input

[quiet summit]

Hmm, restart your game, on your launcher clear cache and give it another shot?

[quiet summit]

Oh wait, the ones you are turning in
Are they full use?

the AFAK and Aluminum splint

[lilac kiln]

I tried both. full use and half used. Didnt help. I deleted my temp folder now but that doesnt seem to help either

[quiet summit]

Do you mind screenshotting the items you are handing in?

Wait the injector you're not able to hand in either?

[lilac kiln]

only the splints are not working

[quiet summit]

Try turning in only one of the 5/5 uses for now

the second one, if not try the fourth one

[lilac kiln]

welp. that worked 😄 i was confident that i tried that before. thank you very much

[quiet summit]

Sure thing!

[snow marsh]

I had the same problem while modding a gun yesterday

I would fully deck it out and go into preset just for it to give me some error and have to do it again

[quiet summit]

228 refers to multiple errors, did you get it fixed?

[snow marsh]

Yea I manually modded the gun and put it on my character and then back to stash

[glossy bluff]

Tried that, got in for 15 Seconds with a freezed screen and then it crashed. Guess i have to upgrade my memory only got 8 Gigs

[twilit trail]

After the new update yesterday I saw that items in rigs and cases have low quality graphics in the stash, I didn't do anything to the graphics and in raid it all looks fine, is there a way to fix this cus this is really messing up my eyes

[quiet summit]

Oh, absolutely

I know the minimum says 8 but it's only accurate for factory

16 is Minimum for all maps

At least we solved the 60% freeze

[quiet summit]

Nothing yet, you're not the onyl one, 5+ complaints yesterday

You can try to restart your router, turn it off for 30 seconds boot it back up, otherwise you'll have to try again in an hour

[modest hollow]

and anyone having problem with paysafecard payments?

it just wont load

[quiet summit]

There has been issues with payment methods other than paypal/card straight

You can try to access site in Incognito mode.

[quiet glacier]

does upgrading from standard to EOD cost the same as upgrading from PFE to EOD

[coarse crater]

No

They take off whatever you already paid

[quiet glacier]

ok

thank you

[quiet summit]

[scarlet oxide]

if i have thermals and nvg's can i hipfire instead with my gun?

since then im not using any of em

[quiet summit]

No I do not believe so

You could just put those items in your backpack before you shoot them though

[muted flume]

Just turn gamma up all the way and use a fleshlight

[scarlet oxide]

ill prolly do that at interchange then since thats bright at night with tons of scavs

so at night thermals and nvgs arent needed

[muted flume]

Interchange should be easy, it’s not too dark inside at night compared to during the day

[scarlet oxide]

yep

[quiet summit]

Reserve Underground's a good option as well
Can kill some raiders while you're at it

[scarlet oxide]

never find scavs there

and havent ran into raiders lately at bunkers

[quiet summit]

Spawns were finally fixed though
Might've been pre-alarm trigger

[scarlet oxide]

recently ive only found raiders at train

[quiet summit]

I've found plenty D2 power

[scarlet oxide]

well i havent been looking for em there

no bp scav ;(

[muted flume]

Bunkers always has raiders usually. Hitting the power also can spawn them

[modest hollow]

anyone knows when we will be able to pay with paysafecard?

[dense cobalt]

Anyone know why I keep getting a server disconnection due to low connectivity? I have great internet speed and in USA servers only where the pings are the best for me. It does it to me every now and then and it just started doing it again...smh

[slim spruce]

Are you on wifi?

[dense cobalt]

Hardwired

[slim spruce]

Has it been fine before?

[dense cobalt]

Yeah it has been fine streaming and playing before. I have had this issue in the past a few times but not in a while. I had thought I fixed it but it just did it to me twice

[slim spruce]

Any windows updates going on, or any streaming going on, on your network?

Watching streams, videos?

[dense cobalt]

Nope

Usually that doesnt effect it though cause we have 3 kids here

[slim spruce]

I'd try rebooting the modem and router by power pulling for 15 seconds.

[dense cobalt]

@slim spruce okay thank you I will give it a shot

[digital quarry]

Worth buying?

[slim spruce]

Watch some streamers and see if the game looks good.

[wild gorge]

how much is g28 worth

[digital quarry]

thank yous ir

[slim spruce]

It's on sale for 20% off now.

You can always upgrade later for the difference in cost.

[digital quarry]

but have u ever seen an sale that go beyond 20%?

[slim spruce]

25% is max

[digital quarry]

thank u

[muted flume]

About 280k to barter for

[exotic idol]

Anyone had a problem logging in recently, resetting their password and then getting that the account is banned? my friend can't send tickets and doesn't know how to resolve this

[slim spruce]

The only support for banned accounts is contacting battleye. BSG can't help.

[exotic idol]

shiiet, he had his discord taken a few weeks ago, probably didnt bother changing passwords

[fossil crown]

is there a quest that decreases my Peacekeeper rep? I am 0 and I dont know why...it used to be higher

[warm goblet]

helo

i have problem with installing my tarkov game when i press install and select the instalation folder, install buton just blinks and nothing happends

[slim spruce]

Can you run the launcher as admin and add the game and launcher folders to your antivirus' white list?

Otherwise there's a manual install method in the pins.

[warm goblet]

i tried to run it as admin but still the same

[north juniper]

excuse me? why is the fee for emelya croutons over 40000RUB? (selling for 15k each)

[slim spruce]

The fee is counting the tax for all items selected.

[north juniper]

why is the tax over 50%?

[slim spruce]

Gotta pay the scavs somehow with taxed money.

[quiet summit]

I never thought I would see Sessamy make a joke.

[slim spruce]

[rare lagoon]

how may i get the Twitch armband?

[slim spruce]

hidden caches or in the scav box.

[quiet summit]

Get lucky finding it in raid, scav box, or barter on flea from someone who has found it

[slim spruce]

Maybe in green weapons crates.

[quiet summit]

Labs armband

[rare lagoon]

dang i thought it was obtained for being a streamer

[quiet summit]

Black division band when

[vivid briar]

hey what do i do if im not getting any verification email

its the right email btw just hasnt been sending through

[lethal helm]

Hey guys my friend is getting lots of shutter in game any solutions? He has better rig then me

Tried different settings too

[quiet summit]

Shutter?

[quiet summit]

Is it a hotmail?

[vivid briar]

no icloud

[lethal helm]

The game freezes everynow and then

[vivid briar]

he meant stutters

[quiet summit]

Oh a stutter, how much ram is he running?

[lethal helm]

16

[quiet summit]

Is his ram usage going above 80% when he is stuttering? @lethal helm

[quiet summit]

Hmm, icloud and hotmail tend to have issues with BSG verification emails

Are you trying to get a verification code through your launcher?

[vivid briar]

no on the website. i need a verification code to login

[quiet summit]

Does your computer have wifi?

[vivid briar]

yea

[quiet summit]

I would try again, using your computer incognito, and use your wifi to connect to your phones hotspot

[vivid briar]

should i ask for a direct verification email through support bot

[slim spruce]

We can't help with account issues on the discord.

[vivid briar]

dang so i just lost my account forever or sum

[slim spruce]

If you can't get the verification code you will need to email [e-mail] for help, if you can't login on the website.

@vivid briar

[vivid briar]

ok

[north juniper]

By the way, question, regarding performance, since dlss is coming out, do us low end gamers get more fine resolution scale control? 75% is way too blurry and 90% is more reasonable

[slim spruce]

No idea

[vivid briar]

when i go to udgrade tarkov i get error 3032, i have tarkov standard, but wanna upgrade to EOD, does anyone know how to fix it? i wanna fix it while the games on sale

[slim spruce]

Xsolla error 3032 means you are blocked from purchasing, and the most common cause of this is a forced charge back.

You will need to contact xsolla support to fix this.

https://help.xsolla.com/i-cant-make-a-payment

[vivid briar]

ive tried that, it wont let me contact them

[slim spruce]

There is a live chat option

[vivid briar]

i dont have the transaction number

[vivid briar]

check your email for one

[vivid briar]

ok

[neon plume]

Did they nerf jumping in this most recent patch? I can't reach the two cases on top of the containers in Interchange anymore as I can no longer jump onto the barrels

[coarse crater]

Yes

[quiet summit]

Actually?

[coarse crater]

Yeah

[neon plume]

Wow, how much strength do you need to be able to do it now?

[quiet summit]

Huh.

[neon plume]

Because apparently even level 8 isn't enough

[quiet summit]

Wonder if the customs shortcut works anymore next to new gas

[neon plume]

I wish they had a chat for bug reports because apparently filling out tickets gets you nowhere, I filled one out back on February 5th and have yet to get a response

[slim spruce]

I usually get replies to my bug reports within 24 hours, even before I was a mod.

[neon plume]

Lucky you, as I said, nothing since February 5th

Or maybe I'm not filling it out right?

[slim spruce]

The bug report button in the launcher?

[neon plume]

I had not filled that one out, I had filled out a support request as it seems it's not everyone getting it. I haven't been able to increase my weapon maintenance skill for about a month now

Been stuck at level 1, 12.4/20

and last wipe it was my covert movement skill that wasn't increasing

[neon plume]

Personally though, they should have a chat channel in their discord for people to say bugs or issues as well

I managed to finish it, Make sure the mag and gun is empty, and make sure its durability is good

[calm cliff]

it all in good shape

[neon plume]

What was wrong?

[calm cliff]

the button fot turn in dosent pop up

[neon plume]

Oh weird

[calm cliff]

for*

[neon plume]

That normally means something's not right with the build

[calm cliff]

im going to restart

[neon plume]

Might help, hopefully it does

[calm cliff]

maby thats the problem

thx for the help

[neon plume]

No problem

I'm stuck on Gunsmith Part 4, because BSG in all their wisdom made the MAG5-60 only available at peacekeeper level 3 for a trade

[calm cliff]

that sucks

still dosent work lol 😭

[neon plume]

Been sitting on that build for some time because I thought I'd be able to get that mag on the flea market or at least once I got peacekeeper to level 2, nope for either one

Wait, the pic you sent me, isn't that for Gunsmith 4?

[calm cliff]

ye

[neon plume]

I'll show you why that one won't work

[calm cliff]

but the mag is still the same

[neon plume]

because I see the problem lol

[calm cliff]

where

[cold nebula]

Hello, I'm having a hard time trying to put my audio back to what it was before, my audio, yesterday, when I was playing as usual, everything was normal until I loaded into another raid, normal like other ones and my audio was muffled, haven't touched anything than usual, anyone has idea of what could've caused this? can my headset speaker (arctis pro wireless) be blown? Or what else could've caused my muffled/different audio like for example I can hear suppressed gunshots normally but sounds like bushes, walking etc are really quiet since yesterday

I also tried reinstalling every driver associated with my audio

but like youtube sounds for example, are the same, did tarkov patch audio or what happened?

I think that the issue is in my headset, it was so expensive, but is not working properly, like there's this chatmix and it used to work like, middle is ballance, right is communication (everything that aint fullscreen) and left side as youre moving the switch used to make windowed sound sources quieter and fullscreen louder

wow okay youtube sounds horrible too now

alright Im just gonna reach for steelseries support

[neon plume]

I'm not trying to be a smartass here, but have you tried unplugging and replugging the headset and the mic in?

Sometimes that'll fix things

[naive venture]

Hey guys. While loading into raid I keep getting server connection closed. I've looked at every resource available to fix this and tried everything I can. I have changed my IP, alternated from Auto server to manual selection, flushed DNS etc... Still nothing helps. Does any one have an idea what is causing this problem?

[full mist]

Factory reset your computer

[cold nebula]

I did, no fix so far

[cold nebula]

wow best support man

[full mist]

It might just work

You never know

But where is the smart guy who usually knows all this stuff at

[quiet summit]

Are you trying to load into an existing raid?

[cold nebula]

well factory reset might help but Im not reinstalling everything, theres too much for my slow ass internet

[naive venture]

no

[quiet summit]

You're loading into a scav run or PMC?

[cold nebula]

would take 2 days just for basic shit

[full mist]

Yeah it was a joke that could possibly work but I wouldn’t recommend it

[naive venture]

both don't work

[cold nebula]

well I did that 2 times before

had to reinstall windows once on my old laptop

[quiet summit]

So you queue for scav and it tells you that? Does it get past matching?

[cold nebula]

well now I have PC

[naive venture]

yes, and when I confirm leave i still get my equipement back

[quiet summit]

Make sure your launcher is in admin mode, disable firewalls and defender

[cold nebula]

guys if anyone here is kind enough to help just add me please

I beg you, its unplayable

[quiet summit]

Are you a newer player?

[cold nebula]

not really lvl 36

read what I wrote, audio became suddenly worse over time

[naive venture]

well if youtube sounds bad it aint tarkov

[quiet summit]

I saw what you wrote.

[cold nebula]

i8t used to be amazing I used to have best audio

I heard before anyone alse and now

I cant even hear my own footsteps properly

[cold nebula]

Its not

I know its not tarkov I reinstalled tarkov already

[quiet summit]

Do Tarkov youtube videos sound different than your in-game?

[cold nebula]

yes

[quiet summit]

Are you using different in-game equipment? Transitioning from Headset+Helmet and you're using Altyn now?

[cold nebula]

like I remember scope magnif clicking sound now its so quiet

but suppressed fire is normal as before

[quiet summit]

Vice versa

[cold nebula]

NO same sordin as always

[cold nebula]

what about it

[quiet summit]

?

What about what?

Do you have your volume low or something?

[cold nebula]

vice versa

no, windows and volume mixer are 100

also steelseries headset box is same as before

[quiet summit]

So only your Tarkov sounds weird?

@vivid briar You okay bud?

[cold nebula]

ITS FUCKING STEELSERIES, sorry guys I just resolved it, had to restart it through theyr f'ing box that comes with headset, man this is so dumb and broken

I do not recommend steelseries, guys buy earbuds, way better in every possible way, wuality may be a little more worse

[quiet summit]

Glad you got it resolved

[vivid briar]

im just so mad i wanna access my account lol

[cold nebula]

it was just bad bluetooth/wireless signal transition/connection

[cold nebula]

yea, thanks for help

[quiet summit]

Have you tried what I suggested?

[cold nebula]

well I repeat myself once again guys, DO NOT buy a headset, buy earbuds and mic if they have a bad one or do not have one because man, especially arctis pro wireless is very overrated

[quiet summit]

Steelseries headphones aren't great, I had one before

[vivid briar]

my email is on my phone not my pc

[quiet summit]

Sennheiser's a solid brand

[vivid briar]

so im waiting on a response from support

[cold nebula]

WELL, WEVE LEARNED our lesson, sorry for caps ingame binds

[naive venture]

Do you have any idea with what my prob is?

[quiet summit]

Make sure your launcher is in admin mode, disable firewalls and defender

Have you been able to load in normally before?

[naive venture]

up until 2 weeks ago

[quiet summit]

Please try the above and update me

[manic frost]

Hello just brought the game and I have been waiting for the verification Email for ages I have no idea what to do now

[quiet summit]

Is it a hotmail email?

[manic frost]

yeah

[quiet summit]

Lol it's okay I saw it, one moment.

https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/362
Log in to your account.
Click the Options (gear-shaped icon in the upper right corner)
Pick option "Parameters", then pick option "Junk mail" at the bottom left
Pick "Trusted sender" and add [e-mail] to the list

[manic frost]

ok I'll try that one second

[naive venture]

no luck

[quiet summit]

OK Try this.
Please backup the files contained before proceeding as they contain any controls you've changed
Delete BSG files in appdata
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Battlestate Games\Escape from Tarkov
Then go to your launcher and verify integrity

[manic frost]

ok I have checked and done the steps and I still have nothing

[sand mesa]

I'm in the same boat @manic frost . Have tried everything I could find on Tarkov forums and still nothing. But with Yahoo email.

[quiet summit]

Ok the following are all different steps that have worked for different people. -- Every line break is a different fix.

Reset router, turn it off for 15 seconds, then turn it back on

Run Launcher as admin

Windows defender firewall and advanced security
BSG launcher - Properties Check off >Domain >Private >Public and dropdown Edge traversal 'Allow edge traversal'

In the Command Prompt, enter “ipconfig/release” then press [Enter] to release your computer's current IP Address.

Use another PC to force/prompt the "Access/login from new hardware" email and it may just put your email through

[manic frost]

oof

[manic frost]

ok I'll try it

[quiet summit]

Is your windows and all your drivers updated?

[naive venture]

yes

[quiet summit]

Ok.

[sand mesa]

Still nothing for my verification code. Even after those above recommendations.

[full mist]

Who let you be smart enough to know this stuff well enough

[manic frost]

no luck

[quiet summit]

If you've tried all the above then you will have to wait for a reply from support

Please contact '[e-mail]'

[sand mesa]

Thanks for your help Kwon.

[manic frost]

Thanks for the help

[quiet summit]

Sorry I couldn't resolve it. Goodluck!

[sand mesa]

Well hopefully we hear soon. I hate that I can't play the game after spending 100+ dollars on it. But I've been itching to get back into it for a week!

[vivid briar]

Guys, I'm thinking of buying EFT but I don't know if my pc fits the requirements, can someone tell me if these specs are ok and can run the game?

[slim spruce]

You may not be able to play the game well.

You may get 40-60fps at most.

If that.

I'd look up benchmarks on youtube of it though

Low end machines have surprised me before.

[tame lynx]

scav reputation is so bad, i have a video where i show a scav player shooting on another good scav player, i kill this aggressiv scav, the other scav kill me and i loose some reputation

[amber nexus]

is chemical part 1 bugged. ive been to that damn rail car millions of times and that damn key still has not spawned

[slim spruce]

You can only shoot them if they hit you or kill another good scav

shooting at or hitting doesn't matter unless they only hit you

[tame lynx]

yeah he hit the other zscav

[slim spruce]

The rules of scav means he has to kill another scav

[tame lynx]

we can see the blood on the wwall

[slim spruce]

or directly hit you

He can damage other scavs all day but needs to kill them

[tame lynx]

so if a scav just damaged an other scav without kill it, i can't replicate ?

[slim spruce]

no

[tame lynx]

god thats so idiot

[slim spruce]

The damage thing only applies to if they hit YOU

Then you can defend yourself.

[tame lynx]

i dont know why the other scav dont kill it so

[amber nexus]

sanitar killed me last night while iwas a scav

didnt know he kill scavs

[dreamy hedge]

where do you report people for RMT?

[slim spruce]

on the discord?

[dreamy hedge]

That or just in general. I have screen shots of a dude who just bought 21 mil in vpx from a website and another dude who is buying armor and pistols

[slim spruce]

Only if it happens on the discord, #discord-mod-mail

[dreamy hedge]

so if I have proof and everything they will not care?

[slim spruce]

It's sort of hard to prove that. Send it to mod mail.

[main lichen]

it will not run smooth I can tell that much, you need 32gb ram and strong cpu for this game

[craggy tangle]

how can i be unban from the eft website if i didnt do nothing wrong it says i was temporary ban i just want to upgrade\ to eod

[slim spruce]

what do you mean?

You mean the forbidden error?

[craggy tangle]

like it tells me i been temporary ban for unusual traffic and it tells me to try again later

[slim spruce]

Are you on a VPN?

[craggy tangle]

no not at all what can i do

because it tells me my ip

[slim spruce]

Try a VPN or reboot your modem by pulling the power for 15 seconds.

[craggy tangle]

i just tried both still no result

and now im getting message access denied

[vivid briar]

Trying to log in, says code sent to email it isnt sending i also double checked everything and my internet is working fine

[loud moss]

You'll be better off in #weapon-modding but swap the grip for rk2, stock for moe with buttpad or precision.

[vivid briar]

Guys I just bought tarkov, and when I go to download it, it says "nothing here pre-order now" Please help :(

[vivid briar]

is there anything I can do to reach support besides email them? I woke up to my account being banned

[ebon zodiac]

Which is the best Windows for Tarkov? And version

10 21H1? or which one

[lethal helm]

How do you refund the game? My friend paid 100+ dollars but its unplayable and he has better rig then me. It shutters and freezes so much.

[earnest monolith]

Anyone else having WAY more server disconnects per match after this patch? i get booted no less than 3 times per raid now and it used to only do it 1s per raid

[lethal helm]

Stupid game, put a high af price on the game but it baerly runs it should run without any probelm on the recommend system requirement, but the shutters are making the game unplayable.

THEY ARE IDIOTS THATS WHAT IT IS.

Fix the damn game you bsg idiots

[inner lake]

idk if this is the appropriate channel for this or not but can we get the sabertooth sks chasis next wipe

it shares alot of similaritys with the fab defense chassis but it has a rail mount that goes over the receiver for mounting scope instead of a dovetail mounted rail. as well as the ability to put any ar-15 style pistolgrips on it.

[void venture]

any tip for best place to find golden gpone? i been checking safes and all wiki usual places for my weekly quest without luck... need 2 of them for weekly quest. found so many loot looking for it lol around 10m rubles...

[ripe wadi]

nah you gotta check the tech stores interchange my man that’s the best spot. found 3 so far and i don’t run it that often

[void venture]

just the loose loot in stores?

[ripe wadi]

[void venture]

[vivid briar]

cultist knife go stab stab

[grim magnet]

@tight plover @lethal helm optimize your settings, i used to run it on a 970 and i5 with no problems before i upgraded, quit crying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YgFCMGizGc

[jolly vector]

Yo guys, just come out of a scav run and went to set up my next PMC loadout but when I try to buy from the traders it shows as if I have 0 roubles but I have just over 1M roubles in my stash. Anyone had this problem before?

[grim magnet]

press fill items on the bottom

sometimes happens to me

[jolly vector]

I'll try this now, thank you!

[grim magnet]

[jolly vector]

It worked a treat! I'll keep this in mind for the next time it happens me lol thanks again!

[grim magnet]

[lethal helm]

Optimization is not the problem, no matter what you do it still shutters, right now he is trying to install on his hard disk and see what happens, and i am angry not crying, we just paid 100 dollars each and we cant play a single game together, thats the problem, since 2 days teting to fix it

[grim magnet]

should've bought standard and tried it out then, and upgraded to EOD later, that's what literally anyone recommends. But try to do what the guy in the video does, it helped me alot with stuttering and FPS issues on my new rig, and a similar video helped me on my old rig 2 years back

And i undertsnad you're angry, sorry for saying that you were crying, it's just that i see alot of people crying about stupid stuff like that after trying to run the game with everything on max on their commodore 64 😅

[lethal helm]

Yea I mean my friend has way better rig then me, i can play conpletely fine but he cant, its not even sometimes, every 3 4 seconds he gets draged back like 0.5 sec, happens in offline too so its not the internet.

[grim magnet]

send him the video link and see if that helps him :)

[lethal helm]

Will try that.

[civic drum]

Need some help with technical support, my whole computer crashes each time i try to join a raid as a scav or a pmc. I have already reinstalled the game and increased the amount of ram tarkov can use but it still doesnt work

any ideas of how to fix it?

Have had this problem for around 1 week now

[vivid briar]

augmentin worked but thanks! :)

[void venture]

[vivid briar]

Yes thankfully lol

[remote parcel]

My game keeps crashing right after profile loading and wont let me inside the game any solutions?

[eager lantern]

What's the best way to level up? Really wanting the flea market lol but it's bit of a grind, I think I've just hit lvl 10

[remote parcel]

Tasks

[quiet summit]

You can try Sessamy perhaps when he gets online.

[vivid briar]

guys i have always high packet loss what can i do for fix this bullshit ?????????

[cyan ridge]

any1 want to help me with tasks im new lvl 7 and havent done a single one yet

[quiet summit]

Not the answer you're looking for, but get better internet

[quiet summit]

You can try posting in #beginners-assistance

[quiet summit]

Are you on a wireless connection?

[vivid briar]

i have lan

my ping is 30

and it is crashing always

when i play with scav i have no problems

[quiet summit]

Do you have automatically select servers on your launcher?

[vivid briar]

yes but i chose already the best server for me with 20 ping and it is the same

[quiet summit]

..?

You have automatically select servers but you selected the server? It's one or the other

[vivid briar]

i have already tried both

but its not working

[void venture]

found one at idea office 😄

[quiet summit]

Ok go back to manual, do not select the one you had selected before, try the next highest ping server.

Sorry lowest.

[vivid briar]

ok

[civic drum]

Sessamy?

[remote parcel]

Bro my game keeps crashing right after it loads profile data i tried restarting my pc and all but it keeps crashing. cant even get inside my stash

[quiet summit]

Yes, keep an eye on the Discord Moderator list on the right side, when Sessamy is on ping him - He's really good with crash fixes, definitely IT background

or something of that nature

[tawny dust]

I keep getting this "2001: Oh no, it looks like there was a temporary error. No funds were debited from your account. Please try again." When trying to upgrade to EOD

[finite ore]

how do i send a clip to tarkov?

[limpid moth]

Items inside of containers have a lower quality. Is this going to be fixed?

[quiet summit]

A lot of people have noted it, please submit a bug report

[frozen charm]

I found a rivals armband, anyone kknow what i can put it up for?

[glass belfry]

@frozen charm check the barter trades to see what others are asking for

*on flea

[frozen charm]

Yeah they're asking for green but idk if its selling

[sinful heath]

@here is there any reason why i am getting like 300 ping when my internet is fine ???

?

[quiet summit]

Are you really trying to @ here ping a server of 300,000+ members?

[tulip hawk]

i haven't logged into tarkov in a few weeks and wanted to reinstall it after i messed up the game files. Now I'm getting this?

basically i had accidentally deleted some of the game files while reorganising stuff on my computer

[quiet summit]

Try launching the launcher in admin mode, top right hit your image and verify integrity

[tulip hawk]

i haven't got the game installed

still has the same error

[vapid flint]

Where do I go for help pre ordering, waiting for the card verification to come thru, and that was hours ago

[quiet summit]

Is it a hotmail email?

[vapid flint]

Gmail

[quiet summit]

Where are you trying to install?

[vapid flint]

Well I’m not that far along, just trying to preorder

[quiet summit]

I was talking to Czechia

[tulip hawk]

D drive, but it keeps saying that I have no space in my C drive which is where i am not trying to install

[quiet summit]

So did your purchase go through?

[quiet summit]

How much space is on your C drive? Have you already selected the path for the game?

[tulip hawk]

56gb

well left cause i have other games on it

[quiet summit]

What's the path exactly that you have selected?

[tulip hawk]

D:\Games\EFT\Escape From Tarkov

[quiet summit]

It's not in the same location as your launcher is it?

[tulip hawk]

no

my launcher is located in the C drive

[lethal helm]

@grim magnet after he reinstalled on his hard drive it started to run properly.

[quiet summit]

You can try to install from pin

[tulip hawk]

is this an issue that is widespread?

[quiet summit]

Not really

Download problems yes a fair number, not yours specifically though

[tulip hawk]

ah right

ill try it, but it is super slow downloading from browser :(

[slim spruce]

The temp folder is located in the launcher folder for the big file when installing and unzipping.

You may need about 30-50GB of space for that, tempoarily.

The manual install method may be something to try.

[tulip hawk]

ill try clearing some space and see if that works

[daring wraith]

I tried restarting the game, why are the boxes so messed up when you open them in your inventory

[quiet summit]

Hmm, have you trieid clearing your cache?

[daring wraith]

I've done it yesterday im gonna do it and check if its still there

It's still there even after clearing the cache

[quiet summit]

You're talking about the black bars filling up the rest of the window?

[daring wraith]

It also exists for other containers like wallets docs cases and so on

[quiet summit]

Can you show me the docs case?

[quiet summit]

What's wrong with it?

[daring wraith]

on the right side of the docs case there is no bar

[quiet summit]

Oh, are you playing on a non-native resoltion?

[daring wraith]

left*

Those are my settings

[quiet summit]

But is it non-native?

What's your monitors resolution?

[daring wraith]

1920x1080p

[quiet summit]

ah okay

I'm not too sure, haven't seen anyone complain about this

[quiet summit]

You can try and clear your appdata folder maybe, make backup of what's inside before you do this

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Battlestate Games\Escape from Tarkov
Delete the settings folder
Then go to your launcher and verify integrity

[daring wraith]

I will try that

[vivid briar]

is the payment service down or something. trying to upgrade my copy of the game.
Its not taking the $2 from my account and now I cant even try paypal...

[dusk furnace]

same problem here, its just saying awaiting payment completion

[daring wraith]

It's still there

could be just a bug

[vivid briar]

so sale ends soon and upgrade isnt working. this is great.

[quiet summit]

Might be with the latest update

[quiet summit]

Maybe you can try on another computer, what's it saying when you're trying with Paypal

[vivid briar]

it gives me 2002 error. that the payment service is down. tried different browsers.

[quiet summit]

No other payment method?

[vivid briar]

ive done a support ticket, doubt it will do much. id hope they recognise its broken and i can still get the discount someway...

I tried 2 cards and paypal. first card went through to Xsolla but didnt get any money taken on that account and the others just error.

[scarlet oxide]

just curious do i need to be on the main road to kill the scavs or can i be on just some hilltop

[quiet summit]

You do not have to be on the main road.

[scarlet oxide]

okay good

also can sonmeone explain this?

theyre the same item from the same trader yet they have different stocks and price

[quiet summit]

They're not the same item, one is a front one is a rear.

[scarlet oxide]

ooh

[ripe wadi]

one rear one front

[scarlet oxide]

nvm then im dumb

[quiet summit]

Nope they look almost identical.

[scarlet oxide]

just curious that theyre the same thing but just different name

[quiet summit]

They're not xD Front post is an I, rear post is a V

[scarlet oxide]

mane i can do the same thing just cut the I to a V with a knife for free

[quiet summit]

huh?

[quiet summit]

You can use a knife to cut them into different shapes?

[scarlet oxide]

yes

3d printer + knife

[quiet summit]

Stop trolling.

[scarlet oxide]

[quiet summit]

You asked about it, I'm trying to explain it to you and you're trolling

[spring wigeon]

Any idea how I can switch to asia region?

[quiet summit]

You should be able to select Asian servers on the Change server button on the top left if that's what you are trying to do

[spring wigeon]

I did switch to asia region with the change server button, but the thing it shows is still USA and I'm experiencing network issues in game, I have 250 ping and it disconnects me

[slim spruce]

Do you only see 4 servers?

You can only play on the Asian servers if you log in on an Asian IP, but note that if you do, the tarkov account will be permanently locked to the Asian region.

[spring wigeon]

I see all the servers, I've set to hongkong and automatic, both had me on 250ping and disconnected me. I used to play in the US and the region thing under game edition isn't changing from US

[slim spruce]

The ping limit is 165

[spring wigeon]

Also hongkong should be 60 ping for me when I selected it.

[slim spruce]

Why are you trying to play on those servers with a USA account?

[spring wigeon]

I was an international student in the US when I bought this game.

[slim spruce]

Where are you now? Which region?

[quiet summit]

Are you on a VPN?

[spring wigeon]

Philippines to be exact, trying to play in hongkong/ other asian region

Nope, not on VPN.

[slim spruce]

You can only play on servers that are 165 ping or less

[frozen charm]

From the first vid i saw, ppl are making about 100-200k a run from hillside house, might be abit outdated tho idk, can anyone confirm?

[spring wigeon]

I understand, I'm trying to play on hongkong which is 60ping for me. I've played on hongkong region on other games esport titles and have less ping. The thing is even though I've changed it to hongkong, my ping is 250 when I'm in game and I think I'm still in USA region.

[quiet summit]

So on the server selection list it says 60 but when you load in it's 250 ping?

[spring wigeon]

That is the case.

[slim spruce]

The USA region of the game can be launched anywhere except europe.

[silent hornet]

Anyone know a fix for this? My EFT was working completely fine no FPS issues etc and now my memory is going to over 80% to where it is un playable

[quiet summit]

Do you have 16 gb of ram?

[silent hornet]

ye

[quiet summit]

Windows + R
Open your run page and type in 'control sysdm.cpl'
Go to the advanced tab, under perfomance hit settings
Advanced again, and change the paging file size
Select an SSD drive
Untick automatically manage paging file size for all drives
Use 8000-16000 minimum and 25000 maximum
Once you’ve entered your size of virtual memory, click Set, then click OK to apply the changes.

[silent hornet]

it says space available 5903 MB

[slim spruce]

You need to make room

[quiet summit]

What's your ISP?

[dusk furnace]

is anyone having purchasing issues?

[vivid briar]

Xsolla sucks. i remember having issues when I first bought the game. Now we cant upgrade lol.

[dusk furnace]

yea its the upgrading I have problems with

is it still not fixed?

[vivid briar]

nope, cant try my paypal, get 2002 error. uuugh

[quiet summit]

Are you getting the same error code as him?

[dusk furnace]

tying to use a card and its just staying on "awaiting payment confirmation" or "awaiting payment submission"

[quiet summit]

Oh, can you try it in Incognito mode?

[gritty fjord]

Does anyone know how to fix launching the game? Ive not had any issues with running the game or it freezing today I hit "play" gets to that first screen then it just freezes and locks up my computer

anyone?

[quiet summit]

I think xsolla has a live support chat

[vivid briar]

i have no number or anything for my order. all i have is this page.

[quiet summit]

Try the xsolla live support chat

[slim spruce]

There is a live chat option.

But first try paypal with the card as a payment option.

[quiet summit]

There's literally nothing we can do for you as far as billing and account related things go

[vivid briar]

i cant do paypal i just get this error 😦

[quiet summit]

Use the live support chat.

[vivid briar]

i have to make an account for babka

[quiet summit]

In any case, posting here will get you nowhere, we're just other players like you

Only xsolla can help you with billing issues

[vivid briar]

i thought some admins would know something as every time i check here people are having issues with this trash payment processor 😦

fingers crossed. talking to support now.

[harsh granite]

are servers like down for traders? when trying to go into trader neither my inventory or theres loads

[quiet summit]

You might have to restart your game

[harsh granite]

i tried that

[quiet summit]

Then it might actually be the servers

[ebon zodiac]

Which Windows version is recommendable to play Tarkov?

Which W10 version? Or should I use W11?

[quiet summit]

Latest win10

[slim spruce]

windows 10

[glossy stag]

yeah im having the same issue with tarkov traders not loading

[quiet summit]

Though I haven't heard of too many problems with 11.

[ebon zodiac]

Which is the last version?

Rn I'm using a particular OS called KernelOS

Windows 10 version 1809

[quiet summit]

That's beyond my paygrade, all Sessamy on that

[quiet summit]

Do your items blink when you try to move it in stash?

[slim spruce]

You need the most updated version as older versions of windows 10 have issues with the game

Some do not allow battleye to run

[ebon zodiac]

Ok, thanks

[silent hornet]

Can someone help, I'm still getting really shit frames for some reason, it was working fine before but all of a sudden its been ass

[slim spruce]

Your ram is too full.

Add some more page file like 16000mb minimum and 25000mb maximum

[silent hornet]

I don't know why tho

[slim spruce]

https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-virtual-memory-size-windows-10

[tidal quail]

nan?

[vivid briar]

Xsolla sucks. support keeps saying to try again. keeps erroring or cancelling.

Yes that’s xsolla for you, Because of them I bought 2 copy’s of the game and I’m unsure if I’m gonna get a refund

insanity...

well it didnt error this time. it doesnt take the $2 from the account though. the support is checking

[quiet summit]

If they're telling you to retry while they're in chat with you it must be that they're doing some changes on their end and seeing if those changes did anything.

There's no need to trashtalk xsolla and their support team

[vivid briar]

This is a terrible experience lol.

[silent hornet]

What's xsolla?

[quiet summit]

Russian payment services company, providing game developers and publishers with payment, billing, distribution, and marketing tools.

I think R6 uses it as well

[vivid briar]

trash

2 cards and paypal. all not working.

[neat minnow]

Why does it keep saying my payment has been canceled??

[quiet summit]

Seems like you're not the only one having problems Cheif.

Keep it respectful.

[unkempt crane]

Ease up, Boone.

[vivid briar]

every time i check this chat other people are having issues. were going to miss the sale

[neat minnow]

maybe if it worked people wouldn't be "dumb as fuck"

[grim magnet]

i used to play*

and i was mostly talking about the other guy, calm your tits

someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed eh?

[vivid briar]

BSG should extend the sale. this is a sick joke. what a waste of time. im trying to spend money here.

[grim magnet]

im not even american lmao

crybaby

[quiet summit]

Thanks.
