[slender snow]

Had the internet restarted as well multiple times. Tried everything I could find online to try and fix it and reinstalled the game as well

[quiet summit]

So you load in and DC instantly?

[slender snow]

Yeah it goes to loading loot and disconnects at about 60%, every map it does this on

[quiet summit]

Can you go on your launcher, and verify files

[slim spruce]

Does this happen when you are solo?

[slender snow]

Solo and group

[quiet summit]

If it says it needs to acquire files then you will need to add exceptions on your antivirus

[slender snow]

i havent seen that pop up

ill add one anyways

[quiet summit]

Be sure to verify files first

[slender snow]

yeah i did that a few times actually

ill do it again

[quiet summit]

I would temporarily shut off your antivirus and test the game

[slender snow]

k

same thing

[quiet summit]

Do you have manual or automatic servers on your launcher?

If you're on automatic, go to manual and select the lower ping servers ---- If you're on Manual, double check to see that you don't have high ping servers selected

After that I would disable your IPv6, Try changing your dynamic IP, and also try rebooting your router(Leave it off for 30 seconds)

[open flame]

why is it when i shoot pmc:s as a scav ai scavs start to shoot me. Started after the patch and has happened 3 times in Lighthouse and ones in customs?

[quiet summit]

It's currently a bug, if you're a scav and you shoot anything with two legs they will shoot at you.

[open flame]

well thats nice. Survive or lose your scav rep two choises

[quiet summit]

Just have to avoid conflict, can always play your PMC =p

[slender snow]

done all that and will do again

[rocky sierra]

Is anyone else getting killed/ agroed by ai scavs after killing a pmc as a svav

[quiet summit]

Yes, It's currently a bug, if you're a scav and you shoot anything with two legs they will shoot at you.

[rocky sierra]

Well my scav karma is about to go way down

[silk saffron]

good

destroy the children, corrupt them all

[slender snow]

no good, same result

sucks, i doubt there is really anything left i can do now

after the hotfix i havent been able to get it to work

[quiet summit]

So you verified integrity, turned off your antivirus and then started game in that order right?

[slender snow]

yes

[quiet summit]

I'm not too sure then, I would submit ticket via your profile on the website.

[slender snow]

ok

thanks anyways

[marble wigeon]

heeey, im coming back to this game after a year, aaaand i am not so sure what is happening in community etc, but is it normal that when i enable DLSS(quality) my GPU usage drops from 80 to 50 but i dont get any frames? XD

iv seen videos that are showing what i experience so maybe i should ask if this feature gonna be better soon?

[quiet summit]

I think there's a chance you're being bottlenecked by CPU
I'm guessing you're running 1080P?

[marble wigeon]

im running 1440p and my CPU is Ryzen7 3700x, which has -> 8 cores x2 threads and work on 4,1 GHz

[quiet summit]

Are you running settings on low?

[marble wigeon]

high textures, high shadows, HBAO and medium SSR

[quiet summit]

Hmm, how many frames are you getting exactly?

[marble wigeon]

i mea, i get it that its not workig as intended but do we have any info that its gonna be better ooor its just gonna stay like this for a while, just asking out of curiosity

[quiet summit]

It's kind of aimed for lower end hardware which is why you're not getting a boost

Your specs are good, i'm guessing you have a 30 series

[marble wigeon]

i tried customs construction side, and i get 65-75 with or without DLSS the major difference is in GPU usage

3070 yes

[quiet summit]

Yeah, the utilization might just be down to optimization of the game

Mine has extremely low utilization too and I have most settings cranked highest

If only optimization was just a press of a button ~sigh~

[marble wigeon]

if you get usage below 50% without DLSS i recommend VoX_E video on youtube on how to unlock fps

[quiet summit]

Sessamy on the otherhand somehow gets his above 80 I think he said

[slim spruce]

Yes. 12900k 3080 FE 32gb 6000mhz went from 80 fps at 1440p max to 150-180

[quiet summit]

Always watching

[marble wigeon]

btw i thing that turning on nvidiaReflex should set GPUs to more work buut in my case it stays the same, but feels better in terms of response, at least something right? xD

[quiet summit]

Nvidia reflex Off feels more responsive?

[marble wigeon]

nuu, when its ON it feels better

what im also gonna try is to set LowLatency mode in NvidiaControl Panel, and then enable Reflex in Tarkov settings

[quiet summit]

Oh lol

[marble wigeon]

😄

[neon flare]

I keep getting a "access denied" on my launcher when i press play but the game still launches? what is this about

[slim spruce]

Does the tarkov website load?

[neon flare]

checking

[slim spruce]

Oh this is access denied, not forbidden?

[neon flare]

yes

[slim spruce]

Start the launcher as admin

If that doesn't work add the game and launcher folders to the antivirus white list (windows defender mostly) and make all the exes (bsglauncher.exe, escapefromtarkov.exe and escapefromtarkov_be.exe) as admin in right click > properties > compatibility > run as administrator.

And reboot and try again.

[neon flare]

alright thanks, and yeah website does load my profile if that matters still

[slim spruce]

I was thinking of forbidden 403

This is not that

access denied is a local pc issue

[neon flare]

alright cool, thanks

[limpid nacelle]

Could somebody help me with the 0/0mb installing issue I have the Error # its 104006 any help would be appreciated thanks!

[frosty hornet]

anybody know a ton about pcs just got an entirely new pc and trying to figure out why my ram usage is so fucking high for tarkov i have 32 gb and it’s at 93%

[simple citrus]

Has anyone had extreme CPU/GPU bog downs with any of the recent patches?

I took a break from Tarkov for a few months, and recently started playing again a few days ago, but ill be mid raid, and all of sudden my CPU and GPU usage shoots up tremendously out of nowhere... To the point that Alt+Tabbing is nearly impossible and Discord freezes up too.

It's mainly my CPU actually

im not really versed in computers to know what I can do about it though 😦

[high matrix]

Anyone know if there is a way to report abusive messages from an angry player I killed?

[zenith shell]

yo im a pretty experienced player but i stopped playing at the very beginning of this wipe, would anyone mind telling me if the "meta" or "chad" guns have changed? I have around 2 years so i know how to play and everything just need to know what the meta is and or what guns are worth using, thanks!

[silk saffron]

762 >

[copper valley]

Why can't I build my gun? I also tried disassembling all the parts and then building it. https://youtu.be/gTyB7QsBg5A

OK I bought a laser off the Auction House and it worked...But why didn't it alert me about the missing part?

[plush fog]

IGN "Olmega" and "ElPepito" are TKers (multiple offenders)

[simple citrus]

The guns you want to use are meta... it's never really been about the gun and more about hte ammo anyway

[young wren]

hello guys, my fps in game is perfectly fine but in lobby my fps is going to 30 and spike to 60 and everything its just terrible in lobby can someone help?

Anyone want to help me finish Mechanic Quest Find Jeagar smh keep getting smacked by duo/trios

Hello guys, i tried to buy the game yesterday and my bank card has been rejected by the website... But i'm able to pay on other platforms. Is there some trouble with the BattleStateGame payment tech ?

[exotic briar]

any1 tryna help me with the arss deciphering thing

[lament lion]

i def can't buy the game 😦

[halcyon yarrow]

Guys, do you think this post is true? https://4game.site/guides/solution-for-slow-loading-loot-times-disable-hpet-please-upvote-for-visibility/

[exotic briar]

im pretty sure I did this one and thats the one that worked for me

[halcyon yarrow]

ok ive diabled it

[exotic briar]

yeah this is what I did

nothing else worked for me apart from that

[rose parcel]

Anyone else lose the ability to speak on discord during raid?

Hello guys, I bought the game yesterday but i can't get it working. All I can see is this screen after the initial loading.

[verbal kernel]

@tawny kernel

[coarse crater]

you have to contact bsg or battleye support, nobody here can unban you sry

[unborn wagon]

@red cape

[mental geode]

i just bought tarkov as a gift for someone but i ddint get any keys?

[median ruin]

It’ll be BattlEye for all bans

But he won’t be unbanned most likely as account theft falls on the user

[median ruin]

Why are you pinging CM

Stop pinging all the CMS pls

[unborn wagon]

@median ruin I need to get in touch with him

[median ruin]

For what

99% of the time you don’t have to and the solution is here

[unborn wagon]

I need to be unban on the server EFT RUS

[median ruin]

Why were you banned

[unborn wagon]

I don't know

[median ruin]

You didn’t get a ban message from a bot ?

[unborn wagon]

I contacted support and was told to write @red cape to get me unban

[median ruin]

DM him then

[unborn wagon]

I was banned by a gamekeeper bot

[median ruin]

What did the message say?

[unborn wagon]

He's not responding to my messages

[median ruin]

Just be a bit patient

In the meantime, did the bot say anything when you were banned?

[unborn wagon]

The bot wrote that I would be blocked on the server EFT RUS for no reason

[median ruin]

Ok, all you have to do then is be patient for a response then

[tender shard]

hello #community-support hope everyone is having a good day

[solar pagoda]

damn dude forcing myself to play more aggressively was the best choice ive ever made

[midnight elk]

Is there a way to shift click items into a container? Moving stuff 1 by 1 is tedious

[hybrid gale]

Anyone been getting fps drops like this?

[median ruin]

Drag it onto the container icon

That’s the fastest way

[quiet summit]

How much ram are you running?

[hybrid gale]

32gb

[quiet summit]

Hmm, normally dips like that it's due to ram.

You don't have auto ram cleaner enabled in-game do you?

[hybrid gale]

i have plenty of ram and no i just use razer cortex

ill try it without cortex incase its messing with the game lol

[oak galleon]

what do I do when tarkov says "Our systems detected suspicious traffic from your computer network"

Ive tried emailing and restarting my router

[slim spruce]

are you on a VPN?

[oak galleon]

No

[slim spruce]

This happens on the launcher or the website?

[oak galleon]

On the website

I havent purchased the game yet

[slim spruce]

You may need a VPN or need to reboot your modem to try to get another IP.

[tame talon]

Anyone getting massive shuddering in raid and some while in inventory?

[marsh widget]

Where is the download link?

[slim spruce]

The launcher is on your EFT website profile page

[marsh widget]

thank you

[fringe charm]

hey these guys keep cominmg in the vc im in and calling me a tker

even tho ive never played with them

[hybrid stratus]

Every time I join a raid I disconnect and when trying to re-join it say game aborted, I've tried numerous things (e.g. VPN, disabling IPv6)

[marsh sonnet]

my game's stuck like this after a restart, any advice?

[hybrid stratus]

all you have to do is wait

or keep resetting

[sleek mesa]

should i sell all my gear and replace it with mosins and modded tozs?

[median ruin]

No

[median ruin]

Clear cache and stuff

[sleek mesa]

shit bro i all ready started to late to stop now

[midnight elk]

At this point what are good weapons with access to tier 1 traders? I've been using a kitted out vepr-km but doesn't seem to cut it

[hybrid stratus]

?

[median ruin]

Probably the best you’ll get

[median ruin]

Out of my knowledge, @slim spruce

[slim spruce]

a VPN didn't help?

[hybrid stratus]

yep

[slim spruce]

When did it start?

[hybrid stratus]

yesterday it was disconnecting me while in raid within a few minutes of each disconnect, but now it disconnects me on start of raid from today

[midnight elk]

Is there a way to at least stick a scope on it?

[median ruin]

You should be able to buy a rail off of skier or mechanic at level one then toss on some optic from any of the traders

[slim spruce]

If you are on wired and this doesn't happen on other games, you should reboot your modem and router by power pulling for 15 seconds. If that doesn't work you may have to contact your ISP and ask about a prioritized IPV4 connection, or "dual stack" connection since Tarkov has issues with IPV6 only ISPs.

[hybrid stratus]

it worked thanks!

[slim spruce]

[midnight elk]

Any way to search for what is compatable with my weapon/mount?

[median ruin]

You can right click the gun and press link search

Link searching different parts will give different things, like link searching just the barrel will give stuff like compensators or handguards

[midnight elk]

So link search the mount specifically?

[median ruin]

One sec I’ll find the one for ya

This on skier should be the one @midnight elk

[midnight elk]

Bastion yep only things that attach are holoscopes was looking for an actual 2x or 4x?

[median ruin]

You’ll have to remove the iron sight to put it on too I think

Holos, red dots, anything

Some sights themselves will need additional mounts though

Most you’re gonna get at level 1 traders is just 1x off the top of my head

[midnight elk]

[languid patrol]

has anyone been able to use paypal to buy the game in the past few days

[slim spruce]

If it says payment cancelled please contact xsolla first

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

[languid patrol]

I did, they refered me to paypal

[slim spruce]

"Problems with PayPal payments usually happen because:

You may have limits on your PayPal account. To lift them, update your profile with all the required information.
There is an issue with your funding source. You might need to update your payment sources in PayPal.
Our security system flagged the payment as unusual activity. You may see an error 1092: your payment was declined for security reasons. Please contact our customer support for further assistance at help.xsolla.com."

[languid patrol]

ok, I'll make sure all the boxesz are filled, thanks

[slim spruce]

@gray bluff Does the game open at all or what?

The launcher opens?

[gray bluff]

The launcher opens yeah, then when I hit Play, it boots up and shows the loading screen before the menu loading screen, says "Tarkov has been Terminated" and then closes itself

[languid patrol]

all the boxes are filled out, might it just be a bug

[slim spruce]

First try verifying game files in the launcher

[gray bluff]

"It appears this game has terminated with an error, do you wish to report?" is the whole message

Already did, nothing happened

[slim spruce]

Can you go to Start > type "view reliability history" and see if there's any error entries for when you crash? Look at the details and look for the fault module name for a clue to what's causing it.

[gray bluff]

Escape From Tarkov: Stopped Working

Windows: Hardware Error

Only things there, but repeatedly

[slim spruce]

reinstall the graphics driver with a clean install in the custom install option (nvidia) or factory reset (AMD)

[gray bluff]

Ok

Screen went black, happenes before when updating graphics card but now it's taking a lot longer than usual

and now it's up nvm

[gray bluff]

It works now, thank you

[slim spruce]

[gray bluff]

But now it's stuck on windowed and I can't access settings D:

[slim spruce]

The screen is too tall?

[gray bluff]

nvm I got it, had to move my taskbar cause it was blocking the settings button

[slim spruce]

Ok

[gray bluff]

thank you for the help!

time to go suffer again

[languid patrol]

Oh, I have a program I use by nirsoft called WinExplorer if that ever happens

it lets you customize the size of windows that dont let you drag them to expand

[spark flame]

Every time I open my messenger in Tarkov it opens up to my friends messages at the bottom instead of opening on the pinned ragman

How do I fix this? Or can it not be helped

[slim spruce]

Is the ones from ragman pinned?

[spark flame]

Yes ragman is pinned

[slim spruce]

Did you get a message from him since this problem started?

[spark flame]

Yeah, I get messages from him no problem. I’m just saying every time I open messenger it directs me to the last messages I’ve sent to my friend

[slim spruce]

Try deleting that conversation on the left side by right clicking your friend and delete that conversation.

[spark flame]

Will it still be there if I decide to talk to him again?

Also the new year message doesn’t have an option to delete dialogue

[slim spruce]

It will appear again when you or him message each other.

[slim spruce]

Your friend was probably a cheater.

Have your friend contact battleye and if it was an accident and if he wasn't cheating he will be unbanned.

Then I'd guess he was probably cheating.

This could mean he was banned in the past.

I believe you have your answer here.

If you're banned on tarkov by battleye, usually, you are banned on any new accounts you make.

Battleye has hardware id and ip bans and other things.

You just said he was banned 4 months ago.

I think there's something your friend is not telling you.

If he was innocent, the first ticket from battleye would have been an unban, most likely.

No. There is no BSG support on this discord, and if there were, they would refer you to battleye support.

[median ruin]

Then there’s nothing that can be done

As Sess stated, if he submitted a ticket and nothing happened, he most likely did something wrong and won’t be unbanned

[slim spruce]

Yikes

[median ruin]

Those texts

[slim spruce]

I think we were talking to said "friend"

[median ruin]

Probably

[lunar garden]

im trynna reconnect to a raid but its just a black screen?

The game disconnected me for no reason and when I reconnected it went full black screen

this game is bugged to hell and I just lost 2 mil in kits because of it

[tardy delta]

why do people hate kids?

[spice stirrup]

which on should keep and which one should I sell

[silk saffron]

sell both

[cobalt onyx]

how do grenades work

[silk saffron]

press g to pull one out (or hotkey them in your vests/pockets)

[cobalt onyx]

no im asking literally how do grenades work in this game

[silk saffron]

hold left click to pull pin, release to throw, right click is underhand

[rough shore]

you pull the pin, throw grenade wait for funny boom noise and hope the fragments found the enemy and not you/allies

[vivid briar]

What is game aborted how to fix it?

[velvet kiln]

You banned me cheat yesterday when I haven't used the game for 2 years and no way to contact you anymore how did you have more than 40€ that I paid

help me please

[crimson lance]

Redut-t5 is acually very good

It has very very good effective durability that ofsets the arm protection

[vivid briar]

i tried this and it worked thank you, new issue is whenever i press "play" it loads the game then it instantly closes

now getting this

[steady cosmos]

Throw at bad guy.grenade boom. No more bad guy

[knotty chasm]

i need help to understand this with scavs in the game. I got shot at from a Scav player i shoot back untill we both realize that we are both scavs but Bot Scavs start to attack me when i didnt even shoot the first shoot that hit

why did i get aggro from bot scavs ?

[crimson lance]

its bugged currently

if you shot anything, even pmcs (that you should kill) ai scavs will aggro you

they somehow fucked it up with dlss patch and still didnt fix it

[knotty chasm]

Well that is bad. and i have this map that tells me that there is a key spawn for key 220 Dorms in a train vagon under some blue fabric. it hasnt spawned there for 8 games in a row is hat also something they patch away ?

[crimson lance]

i dont think it spawns always

there are spawns where keys spawn always and there are spawns that have chance of spawning, also someone can loot it

[knotty chasm]

so basicly keep going ther eand i might be lucky ?

[crimson lance]

why do you need this key?

[knotty chasm]

quest.

[crimson lance]

personally i would just do other quest until you get flea and buy it or get someone who has this key at #pvp-lfg

[knotty chasm]

im 2000 Xp from the Flea but for some reason i get scavs at me and pmc that are rediculus strong and plays like they have wallhack

[slim spruce]

run the launcher and game exes as admin by right clicking them (bsglauncher.exe, escapefromtarkov.exe and escapefromtarkov_be.exe) and go to properties > compatibility tab > check run as administrator, and add the game and launcher folders to windows defender's white list and reboot and try again.

[fair adder]

hi, I'm just returning to tarkov and I was going through all the key binds. I don't know why but my quick equip is bound to ctrl + lmb, I know my quick loot is meant to be bound to those controls. I have reset my controls like seven times and I'm still having this issue.

[slim spruce]

You could delete the file that stores the binds and restart the game.

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Battlestate Games\Escape from Tarkov\Settings

Control.ini

[fair adder]

oh ok thanks

hey sessamy i ust tried to delete it but it didnt work. i just bright clicked on the file and went to delete. is that it or is there more to it?

[slim spruce]

That's all

Restart the game now

ALT LMB should be equip and CTRL LMB should be loot

[fair adder]

@slim spruce yeah i just did all that and sloesed my game and then restrted it. it still has ctrl lmb as quick equip and i can't even quick loot

[slim spruce]

Can you change it?

[fair adder]

i can enter the settings file and everything, its just once i get done deleting the file and restart my game i still have the same issue

[slim spruce]

If those files are set to read only (with a check mark) please reinstall the game

I mean if control.ini is read only with a check mark. Not a dot.

[rotund iron]

I keep having an error with my scav case in my hideout. It says that I have no space but I have a huge spot for enough stuff. Any help would be appreciated.

[slim spruce]

Make more space. Sometimes you get huge backpacks.

[fair adder]

Im not seeing a check or a dot

[slim spruce]

Then I assume things are working correctly.

[slim spruce]

Please try to manually change it in the game.

[fair adder]

im sorry what do you mean by "in the game"

[slim spruce]

The settings menu for changing binds in the game

[fair adder]

im gonna uninstall then reinstall and check back with u

@slim spruce should i uninstall the launcher as well, just in case cause ive uninstalled before and it didnt help

[slim spruce]

no

[fair adder]

ok now i wait

[slim spruce]

In the game settings menu in the game, while it's running, you can change the controls

Like switch CTRL LMB to ALT LMB

[fair adder]

@slim spruce i dont know where to change the CTRL LMB to ALT LMB, in the control settings in game it doesnt show up

[slim spruce]

You're right, you can't change that. It must be correct then.

Try to remember the binds.

[fair adder]

well i cant even quick loot at all

[vital plover]

I can't select HongKong servers

[fair adder]

@slim spruce i found out it was due to me having the wrong keycaps on the wrong switches, i only found out from going into logitech ghub and trying to make a macro

im all good now tho, thanks for everything

[slim spruce]

Ok

[low badger]

How does scaving on reserve work? Do the raiders automatically target you? ie. Can I extract at Hermatic Bunker Door without being killed?

[tight apex]

could we like, get a "team kill" report option rather than just bug abuse or hacking

Not exactly cool being shot in the face 7 seconds into a raid by a teammate

[slim spruce]

teamkilling is not against the ingame rules, only the discord

[tight apex]

fair

[median ruin]

To add on, it’s advised to meet up with people on discord to play in a group, not just randomly.

[slim spruce]

Yes, joining randoms ingame without the discord will end up in them just killing you

If you join someone on the discord here, we ban them if they teamkill, if you have the required evidence

(ban from the discord)

[median ruin]

^ it’s good to have a passive recording software going while playing (make sure you get their discord in the clip as well)

OBS, medal, nvidia afterplay or whatever it’s called

[slim spruce]

nvidia geforce experience or amd raedon relive

[median ruin]

[tight apex]

👍

[hybrid stratus]

@slim spruce turns out that what I did yesterday didn't work

[slim spruce]

[slim spruce]

You might need to contact your ISP about an ipv4 or dual stack connection then.

[pliant lagoon]

I can't log in to the website. No authorization code is ever sent to my mail... Logging in through the launcher works fine. I tried closing the launcher before logging in through the website, tried a couple times all day. Resetting my password works fine, and the email arrive instantly. Any chance that this is something that will sort itself out tomorrow or later?

[hybrid stratus]

I think I found out what has been happening

[slim spruce]

Try on another browser

[hybrid stratus]

I've been getting massive lag spikes that the anti cheat then picks up and disconnects me, but I don't know what's the cause of the lag spikes

[slim spruce]

The disconnection error says something about anti cheat?

[hybrid stratus]

no

it just says the usual server disconnection error message

[slim spruce]

Then I'd ignore the anti cheat stuff

[hybrid stratus]

k

[pliant lagoon]

Thanks. I'll try Edge in inprivate mode. I used Chrome (with and without incognito before). Did not seem to work either, but i'll give it some time for the mail to arrive.

[pliant lagoon]

From the wiki: https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Scav_Raiders
"Scav Raiders start out neutral to other Scavs (including player Scavs), but will get irritated and shout warnings when they get too close. If the warning is ignored, they will open fire. If some other Scav has alerted a raider, it becomes hostile to all other non-raider Scavs; it is safer to always assume that they are hostile."

[slim spruce]

@modern obsidian There's two things you can do to help this, adding more page file and reinstalling the graphics driver with a clean install

RAM size?

[spring bramble]

Hello. I have some Qs as a potential new player. Considering buying the game. Is it quite straight forward and is the whole purchase process reliable?

Can I confirm that this game has team matchmaking? Or do we need to know people to setup teams to go out?

Is it not too tricky to get to grips with?

Is the community generally supportive? I want to avoid toxic comms that some games have.

Thank you!

[slim spruce]

The purchase should be fine, but sometimes banks deny the purchase to another country. I paid with paypal with no problems. Xsolla support is who handles this.

You need to find friends to play with, you can't randomly group up with people as they will just teamkill you. You can meet up in #pvp-lfg and if they teamkill in here, we ban them from the discord if you have video proof.

The game has a very big learning curve. I would suggest watching tutorial videos.

I have not heard any voip abuse because if you report them (YY and report ingame) their accounts may get banned.

[spring bramble]

Ahh okay, thank you. Thats great to hear. So just to clarify, I technically can matchmake with a team randomly but they aren’t reliable? Or is it that I can’t matchmake at all to create a random team?

[slim spruce]

There is almost no chance that you can join a random group in the game and they won't teamkill you on spawn.

There is no punishment for it.

I play solo all the time and it's great.

There are some advantages to it.

[hasty grotto]

Hey, my game started stuttering pretty badly since the last 2 days (I noticed it after the addition of the new barters) making it pretty much unplayable for pvp

I have an RTX 2070, i7 9th gen and 8 gigs of ram.

I assume the main cause of it is the poor ram but the game was alright before the issues came

any help?

[slim spruce]

The ram is the cause.

Do you have page file set?

[hasty grotto]

Page file? Is that the location of the game? Sry, not really familiar with that kind of stuff

[slim spruce]

Try adding 16000MB minimum and 25000MB maximum page file to an SSD as shown here:
https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-virtual-memory-size-windows-10

[hasty grotto]

The game ran decently fine with 8 gigs before

[slim spruce]

That is very unusual.

[hasty grotto]

At around 50 fps generally on customs, worse on other maps

[solar pagoda]

man how the actual fuck do i get better at pvp, ive just been getting beaten down for the past 15 raids and ive lost countless kits, im broke and low on gear

[hasty grotto]

Aight, I´ll try this. Are there any risks to it?

[sonic pollen]

Hey guys, I’m having an issue where I can’t login on the website. The verification thing says it’s down or something. Any tips?

[slim spruce]

No. It's used already right now but this just increases it.

[hasty grotto]

Alright, thx for ur help

[slim spruce]

What error?

[slim spruce]

Resync windows time and make sure it's correct. You must undo auto sync and resync it. Then clear cache and cookies on the website. and refresh.

[sonic pollen]

Thank you sir

[uncut lynx]

everytime I launch tarkov, theres a 90% chance of my PC freezing and dying into BSOD with error DPC WATCHDOG VIOLATION

[spring bramble]

Thanks, I think I’ll take the plunge!

[uncut lynx]

this has never happened before, only recently after the update like 1 week ago

[slim spruce]

Get the standard edition as you can always upgrade at the cost of the difference.

[uncut lynx]

is there a common fix to this? sfc /scannow doesnt help with it nor reinstalling drivers, or reinstalling the game

[slim spruce]

Can you go to Start > type "view reliability history" and see if there's any error entries for when you crash? Anything interesting?

[uncut lynx]

how does one read this

[slim spruce]

click on the column to the left of the blue one

[uncut lynx]

this one?

[slim spruce]

24/4/2022

[slim spruce]

on the latest hardware error what does it say?

[uncut lynx]

all of them are live kernel event error

at least for the hardware errors

[slim spruce]

This is a graphics driver error, 144. Please reinstall the graphics driver but use "clean installation" (nvidia) or "factory reset" (amd).

[uncut lynx]

rgr

[slim spruce]

In nvidia this would be in the "custom" install option to check "clean installation".

not express

[uncut lynx]

everything seems to be working fine for now, thanks a lot, it had gave me so much trouble for the past few days haha

[slim spruce]

Ok great!

[low badger]

@pliant lagoon Thank you!

[small matrix]

@slim spruce do you know when they fix scavs?
when u kill a pmc with a scav, scavs become super mad and extracting becomes impossible

[slim spruce]

It's a bug. Hopefully they fix it soon.

[small matrix]

on the lighthouse expansion on thursday patch?

[slim spruce]

I don't think that's confirmed either.

[small matrix]

😄

sessam leaks prevented 😛

[limpid hill]

how do i check how much ram tarkov has allocated to it

my game keeps crashing

[slim spruce]

Can you go to Start > type "view reliability history" and see if there's any error entries for when you crash? Look at the details and look for the fault module name for a clue to what's causing it.

[slim spruce]

RAM size?

[limpid hill]

16gb

[slim spruce]

Try adding 16000MB minimum and 25000MB maximum page file to an SSD as shown here:
https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-virtual-memory-size-windows-10

[limpid hill]

alr ill try

would this fix the issue of crashing whenever i use a 4x scope

[lone geyser]

its not letting me buy tarkov can someone help me pls?

[limpid hill]

my game still crashes

when i shoot guns

sometimes at least

[tawdry crystal]

Hello, i cant register on the website, cause i dont see the recaptcha, can somebody assist?

i want to buy EFT

[slim spruce]

Does it say it's cached?

[vivid briar]

hello, few motnhs ago i bought the most expensive edition downloaded played offline to try the controls etc but when me and my friend tried to go multiplayer i couldnt join the server BUT my friend could.
contacted support, created ticket, contacted ISP, tried to sort out, nothing worked and was told that its an ipv4/ipv6 thing. ISP told me i cant get another ipv4 address due to it only being elligible for businesses and BSG Support told me to just wait for an update... half a year passed and my 100+ euros still nowhere pretty much - now with just updated error message - Is there any help?

[slim spruce]

If you tell your ISP that you need it for "work" they have to give it to you, at least I heard from a German friend

The ipv4 thing is usually the cause for instant disconnections over and over

[vivid briar]

Well you need a identification business number which i dont have, sadly

[slim spruce]

a VPN might help

I have seen people fix this with a vpn to a near by location

[vivid briar]

Vpn didnt help, network tethering from other ISP(mobile data) didnt either

[slim spruce]

I suppose all of those have ipv6 only as well

[lone geyser]

can someone help me it wont let me go in my game it says repairing game

[vivid briar]

Probably yeah, i also ran trace route commands in cmd to see if its all time fail
(i was asked by the bsg support to do that as well as by isp)

[steel swift]

Is there any way I can increase gamma without resorting to the in-game post fx? The post-fx takes 10-30 fps for just increasing brightness alone and barely does anything in the first place to help with that.
I'm not trying to make shadows disappear, I'm currently unable to see at all when I go inside nearly any building unless I want to resort to navigating it by memory. This started happening after I hadnt played in a few months
(its also not my monitors settings)

[vivid briar]

after i did everything i was desperate but only got told to wait for a patch...

[slim spruce]

You can increase gamma at the nvidia driver level

nvidia control panel

[steel swift]

Yeah but every other game and app is perfectly fine

[slim spruce]

what's wrong with tarkov?

[steel swift]

I dont want to sacrifice my entire computer's brightness/gamma level for tarkov

[slim spruce]

You are stuck with post fx then. Or do this globally and turn it off when you're done.

[limpid hill]

my game still randomly crashes

[steel swift]

Actually I just found LumaSharpen sorta works as an exposure slider and now I can see again. I'm just gonna have to take the fps hit for this one

[haughty helm]

https://i.imgur.com/exelufF.png

not showing here but cursor is stuck in the centre of screen cant figure out how to remove it

[steel swift]

I just got that too after restarting

[covert slate]

That has happened to me in different games before just restart your game

[haughty helm]

ok

yeah that did it

[slim spruce]

@covert slate thanks

[covert slate]

Technic#5043

[slim spruce]

Got it

[covert slate]

@slim spruce bro someone is in beginners 8 and aint even playing tarkov

smh

[slim spruce]

[kindred yoke]

How do you fix the "Server Connection Lost' issue?? Its annoying to say the least. Also, unchecking IPV6 does nothing.

[slim spruce]

If the problem is IPv6, disabling it on your end doesn't change that on your ISPs end.

If you get it all the time and you have troubleshooted everything, wired, etc, you may need to contact your ISP and ask about a prioritized ipv4 connection, or otherwise known as 'dual stack'.

[kindred yoke]

I dont get it all the time. It happens randomly.

[slim spruce]

If the problem is ipv6 it happens all the time and you can't play

Are you on wifi?

[kindred yoke]

i dont think its the problem. Someone told me to try it on here but that didnt do anything

[slim spruce]

Are you on wifi?

[kindred yoke]

Im on wifi but i have a strong connection

[slim spruce]

You may want to either try wired or change the channel of your wifi to another one that isn't used as much as other wifi around you, with an app that can see nearby wifi channels such as "wifi analyzer"

[kindred yoke]

I have no problem with other games. Halo, cod, etc

[slim spruce]

You can also try selecting 5 or less servers in the launcher

With the best ping

[kindred yoke]

I tried overseas pings but i cannot even load into those servers.

[silk saffron]

advanced power options

[kindred yoke]

What would power saving mode have to do with server connection issues?? New to PC

[silk saffron]

idk how to explain this to new to pc

try set that power option see if it helps + what sess said

[slim spruce]

The problem could also be routing with your ISP if your ping suddenly goes way up.

It depends on what the error says.

[earnest karma]

I am having a big issue with loading loot times in game (7-10min). I have tried the hpet disable method and have reinstalled all drivers that would affect this issue (chipset, gpu). Im lost for possible solutions at this point and would appreciate any help for this 🙂

[wild hawk]

Quick question. Why is there such a disproportionately high penalty to scav karma when above 6? I had just hit +11 and after some mindless pmc runs I ran a scav and muscle memory kicked in on an ai scav. I quickly realized my mistake and ran out. I lost a whopping 2.04 karma spanking me down to 9 flat. With a 5 minute timer and assuming I could 100% survival rate factory and run out in 2 minutes that 7X204 raids would be ~24 hours worth of runs. I can understand a .1 per kill but 204 raids for one kill makes me think it’s unintentional. I’m now sitting here not just set back weeks but also afraid of another mistake. Why am I punished so severely while the dude who just wipes the map as a scav is slapped on the wrist? I would understand.2 but 2.0 is borderline crazy

[slim spruce]

Please submit a bug report in the launcher if this happens every time.

[silk saffron]

stop shooting scavs if you want to keep your karma

[wild hawk]

2 scav kills neither being intentional the entire wipe and I’m rewarded with an upgraded punishment? What’s the logic behind it, genuinely curious. I feel more punished than the hackers who flying carpet up to me with their twitch drop ash12 and head eyes me through a box 👍🏻

[silk saffron]

good scavs don't shoot other scavs

twitch drop ash12 wat

[median ruin]

Worth

That’s a good twitch drop ngl

[wild hawk]

There was a twitch drop this morning that gave an ash. If you’re just here to try and wind me up I genuinely feel bad to you. I’m asking a question regarding the game. If you don’t want to answer politely see yourself out.

[silk saffron]

oh i don't follow twitch drops i just know they shit on the servers

if you have above 6 karma you lose a lot of karma, i told you how to avoid it already

[slim spruce]

If I had over 6.0 karma I ain't gonna shoot nothing

[silk saffron]

^

[wild hawk]

I didn’t ask how to avoid it, I asked why and if it’s intentional. I asked for the logic. I’m not here to be pestered and messed with, I’m here to get support. I recommend you seek a more fulfilling job if your life involves having time to troll support channels.

[silk saffron]

i'm not trolling you
why: to punish you for being fence LL2 and doing actions defined as "bad"
is it intentional: yes

[wild hawk]

Ah yes, give the the clean record guy the max punishment and give the repeat offender a $5 fine and a slap on the wrist. I ask why there’s such a big punishment and your whole response is “Stop shooting scavs” if it’s not a troll I recommend you check for a gas leak because that was not very thought out well.

[slim spruce]

Wow chill

[vivid briar]

will the devs work on a patch for that i wish to play the game so much 😔

[slim spruce]

This is an ISP issue, this is not something the devs can fix, to my knowledge, if this is the problem.

[real sigil]

i have a weekly guest to find 3V G Paratus 3-Day Operator's Tactical backpacks how do i find these?

do they spawn on raiders

[marsh sedge]

im not sure how to explain this but tarkov seems to be crashing my gpu no other games are doing this, my pc is fairly new.

my specs are i7-10700KF, 16gb ddr4 3200mhz, 3070.

the gpu doesnt even go over 65c on max settings so idk what it could be.

[covert slate]

Do they need to be found in raid?

[brisk kayak]

does anyone know why tarkov is using all my 16gb of ram on the lowest settings it would help a lot

[crimson lance]

Tarkov will always eat up as much ram as you have (except rare ocasions) most you can do is turn on ram cleaner in game settings

[median ruin]

Increase your settings

And use an external ram cleaner over the in game one, restart your game every couple of raids

[fiery pecan]

Hello everyone, after a while i wanted to download EFT but cant download because when im trying to log in via launcher i cant get authentication code i tried few things on internet but didnt work anyone can help ?

[fair adder]

Does anyone use the fiiO fh3’s for tarkov, my dog finally broke my turtle beaches and I wanted to know if they were decent or not

[gritty flume]

@slim spruce yo Check Dms

[spring bramble]

Are the AI significantly worse during the night or are they just as good a shot? And can they spawn with flashlights/ NVGs?

[gritty flume]

@fluid gate i have tried contacting you guys to report somebody but when i try to report it i cant upload the file to the mod mail cuz its to big and tried sending it to an actual mod or uploading it to yt and send a link to the mod but still no response

@slow sphinx do yall even do anything bruh?

@zenith crown your mods are lazy dude

[slow sphinx]

Yes, including having jobs, sleep, and families. The whole discord staff is made of volunteers, and there is 330.000 users here. They'll get to you when they can.

If discord forbids the upload, you can use youtube or streamable but I'm not sure why you're complaining considering you had a youtube link earlier?

Please, send the link and the rest to modmail, and we'll check it out soon. I'm currently out

[grim hatch]

???

Isn't mass tag something you can, you know, muted for?

[loud moss]

Mfw mods are actual humans with lives

[grim hatch]

Imagine doing anything but helping someone saying you are lazy

I mean woa

[quiet summit]

waow tech support is a cat now

[upper yarrow]

i got a gtx 1060 with an i5 and 16gb of ram, what are some recommended settings to max out my fps while still making the game look good? i average 60 mostly , and some cases 80 frames

[steady cosmos]

if you stay at 60 what are you changing? you wont get much higher with a 1060

[upper yarrow]

wdym what am i changing? im changing nothing, im asking if there are settings I can apply that’ll get me past it

because I can run around in some spots on customs and get 80 frames, but others with 60

even a smooth 70fps would be awesome

[steady cosmos]

and i said theres not much you can change, except decrease settings further to get maybe 10 more frames

[quiet summit]

60-80 is pretty good for the specs you are running tbh

This game takes your rig and slaps it across the face (Unless you're Sessamy)

[quiet summit]

@fringe burrow What type of Antivirus is he running if any?

[fringe burrow]

I'll ask

just windows defender.

[quiet summit]

Is he able to run around before he disconnects or is it instant?

[fringe burrow]

Most of the time he loads into the raid and is able to run around, but after a few seconds he gets the "connection lost' message

[quiet summit]

Is he getting red ping on the top right?

[fringe burrow]

I don't know, he is now loading into a raid again to check

[quiet summit]

Is this pretty often?

Also does the party leader have servers that work for him?

[fringe burrow]

He had the same issue last week

And we are all playing on the same servers

He had 50/60 ping before being disconnected

[quiet summit]

Not his ping then, I would disable IPv6 if he has it enabled

[fringe burrow]

He already has IPv6 disabled

[quiet summit]

Has he tried to let his router chill out for a minute?

[fringe burrow]

Yep

[quiet summit]

^Might have to resort to that.

If he's sure he doesn't have an antivirus blocking any files then I'm all out of ideas - will have to try the above.

[fringe burrow]

If it is the antivirus he should be disconnected everytime right? 2 hours ago he was able to play raids with us without any problems, 1 hour later he got disconnected all out of a sudden

Will try the above

[quiet summit]

Yes if it's the antivirus he wouldn't be able to move very far from where he DCs

[quiet summit]

If that's the case, are you guys on "Automatic" for server matching?

[fringe burrow]

Most of the times I'm the lobby leader and i'm on automatic

He just solo queued and got disconnected instant as well

He plays on the servers of the country he lives in, so that shouldn't be a problem I think

[quiet summit]

I would suggest he manually selects servers - Try 1 server at a time

For some people, when they connect to certain servers - something doesn't agree with them (Even if it's a low ping server)

I had a friend that had like a 15, 20, 40, 60 ping server -- The 20 ping would always disconnect him

If you don't have the patience to go one at a time, I would select like half under 100, see if he DCs, if he does; select the other half.

[fringe burrow]

We are trying some servers now

Just tried on a other server, he didn't get disconnected so we are gonna try some raids on this server. Thanks for the help

[quiet summit]

No problem! High hopes

[slim spruce]

@hybrid stratus that includes personal info

What did you find?

[hybrid stratus]

it just says can't put 25mm ring to slot tactical in 2.5 mlok rail section because it contains holosun 1s321 and it says the same for some other things

it says deserialization error

@slim spruce

[slim spruce]

got a screenshot?

[slim spruce]

not the logs, the error in game

[hybrid stratus]

I was talking about the log

[slim spruce]

I don't get it

There's always random errors in the logs

Sometimes ones over and over and it's fine

[hybrid stratus]

then I don't know what's causing the problemn

[slim spruce]

Have you contacted your ISP yet about the ipv4 prioritized connection/dual stack thing?

[hybrid stratus]

not yet

[restive turret]

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS GAME

i went to labs with some friend but i spawned in by my self and got killed gotta love this game

how can that happen when i was in lobby with them

[median ruin]

Bug

[spring bramble]

I tried to register for an account to buy but it won’t accept my email address

[slim spruce]

Please use a gmail made especially for Tarkov.

That may save a lot of headaches in the future as some email providers do not get emails from BSG.

[spring bramble]

Thanks for the quick response. Ah thats unfortunate. Do we know if the game is heading to Steam so these issues are no more? I wanted to avoid setting up a brand new email account for one game.

[slim spruce]

Maybe after final release. The email issues are not connected to the platform it's on - the problem is with email providers.

[spring bramble]

Thanks. Yes true, but I mean its less likely to require login with a platform like Steam as it’ll auto link to their systems. I may wait until the full release, sadly.

[slim spruce]

Using gmail will help make sure you are not locked out of your account since you need email codes to sign into the launcher and website.

It's a rare issue but it happens.

[spring bramble]

Multi/two factor authentication?

[slim spruce]

The 2 step verification is done via email.

[spring bramble]

Yeah

[slim spruce]

Yes those are the codes.

[spring bramble]

Thanks again for the advice. I’ll take a look at all

[vapid pine]

Hello, When I start up tarkov it gets windowed and white, and after a few seconds it crashes. Before I was able to play?

[slim spruce]

When did this start and what does it look like?

just a blank windows of white?

[vapid pine]

I play on another pc normally, haven’t touched this one for a few weeks. I’ll send a video right now

[hybrid stratus]

hey sessamy I managed to start getting into games after finding that my graphic settings were set to high, but I still disconnect every few minutes while in raid

[slim spruce]

Still sounds like the ipv6 issue.

[hybrid stratus]

I disabled it in my networks tab

[slim spruce]

Disabling ipv6 on your end does not stop it between your modem and your ISP

[vapid pine]

When it launches I get this

[hybrid stratus]

and I asked my dad about the dual stack thing but he hasn't told me if it is enabled or not

[slim spruce]

check integrity of the game files

[vapid pine]

How?

[slim spruce]

This is only something your ISP would know

[slim spruce]

Top right of your launcher on your name > check integrity

[vapid pine]

Okay doing it rn

Repairing rn😁

[quiet summit]

[hot void]

If I bought a friend the game and after he died using his own gear for 5 raids in a row and I decided to give him a crappy skull lock with the cheap nvg, an M700 with only a scope and suppressor, and a backpack for one night raid just to have some fun and give him a different experience from what he had been getting does that mean I boosted him?

[slim spruce]

Technically I guess that is true but boosting is more like giving them a full set of keys and lots of money right after starting. Or killing everything on a map and letting them loot everything.

[hot void]

I gave them 150-225k rouble of gear and he made out with 20k rouble that raid and killed no one

Only a few scavs

[slim spruce]

I don't think BSG will ban you for giving your friend one gun.

[quiet summit]

Technicalities aside, you should be fine dropping him that stuff. If you're playing with him consistently they'll notice it and won't do anything.

[slim spruce]

[hot void]

They banned him

[quiet summit]

The friends I play with I always give out gear to when they start a wipe late

[slim spruce]

Then your friend might have been cheating.

[quiet summit]

Well if they banned him then they shouldn't have stated a reason

[hot void]

No he literally has died every raid without killing any PMC’s

[quiet summit]

Has he signed on with multiple PCs?

[hot void]

Let me check

[slim spruce]

Have your friend contact battleye for appeals as BSG does not handle that.

Otherwise, I think there's something your friend isn't telling you.

[hot void]

Alright I’ll ask him more about it. I was just making sure what I did wasn’t wrong

[fallen canopy]

I've been having late spawns since the last few patches. Loading loot phase takes minutes and then I spawn in 2-3 mins late (on an NVME SSD). Any ideas?

does air filtering unit work cuz i built it

[quiet summit]

I haven't heard of it being fixed yet, if that answers your question

[analog linden]

Yo i bought a tarkov but the game is not there can someone show me how to fix that.

[quiet summit]

"Not there"?

You install the launcher on the website, Log in and visit your profile, it will be in the center/bottom of your screen

[analog linden]

its show nothing but still took my money from my acc

[slim spruce]

please contact xsolla about this problem https://help.xsolla.com/you-charged-me-but-i-didnt-get-my-purchase

[analog linden]

yo Another question its asking me for the transaction number. But i didnt get one cause it said that "the payment didnt work" But they still charged me.

[slim spruce]

Please use the live chat feature, the purple button.

ok

[limpid moth]

My game stays on loadng after opening, and it wouldnt find server. Anyone with the same issues?

[frozen forum]

There's nothing happening in your clip

[vivid briar]

How do I fix error 228

[slim spruce]

Depends which 228.

[vivid briar]

Items moving

[slim spruce]

What does it say, exactly?

[slim spruce]

What are you trying to do when this happens?

fill a magazine?

[vivid briar]

Load and unload ammo

[slim spruce]

Please do that one manually.

It's bugged somewhere.

[vivid briar]

wdym manually

[slim spruce]

find the bullets and drag them into the magazine for that one

[vivid briar]

Thats what I am trying to do

[slim spruce]

Move the bullets to another square and try again.

[vivid briar]

So I cannot fix the issue, just avoid it?

[slim spruce]

It will likely just be caused by a bad magazine or a bad stack of ammo

Just a single problem.

[vivid briar]

What if I discarded it?

[slim spruce]

You can try that.

Sometimes some magazines are bugged for some reason

[vivid briar]

well support told me to just wait for a patch, so im waiting

[slim spruce]

@agile star To use mod mail you must have open dms

[lone hill]

Hey

Anyway to fix the ping timeout issue?

[slim spruce]

About being over 165 ping?

Or there's none in the launcher? All timed out?

[lone hill]

It's all timed out on the launcher

The ping app freezes at first

[slim spruce]

Disable DoS protection on your router is how most fix this.

[lone hill]

is it safe?

[slim spruce]

Yes, DoS protection tries to stop pinging too much and this activity to ping all these servers is being caught in that filter.

Also, if you are really under a real DoS attack, this is not going to stop it anyways.

[lone hill]

Besides the firewall, what about these filters?

[slim spruce]

Try one at a time.

ICMP first

[lone hill]

Alright. I'll play with the settings. For now, thanks.

[slim spruce]

👍

Keep the firewall up

just disable the flood protections, one at a time and maybe all as well, to test what is stopping this.

[round herald]

Is there anyway to report cheaters in this discord

[pale crest]

my gut tells me it’s the other way - preventing your PC from making one

[slim spruce]

No. Please report them ingame.

<@&551452465233657859> May i have a moderators attention for a brief moment? I have proof of team killing and want to know how to report it.

anyone?

[frozen mural]

@hard kernel Team killed me on reserve as he sat at d2 all raid with a buddies gear .. i went to turn power on and killed 3 raiders and he headshot me when i got back... than left the call instantly.

[burnt wharf]

Anyone have a fix for "Bad Production Timestamp 228" error on scav case?

[burnt wharf]

Charming

[frozen mural]

how do we get this kid banned lmfao.

[burnt wharf]

You send a clip to (@) contactstaff

[median ruin]

#discord-mod-mail @frozen mural @worldly ice

[steady cosmos]

modmail

[steady cosmos]

cant without a clip proving it.

[median comet]

we fixed the sliding scavs now they shoot twice with 1 bullet with mosin

[onyx quartz]

i also have reset my game like 2 times

[red needle]

I bought the game in the states but I've moved to Isreal can I still play or will I get banned?

[loud moss]

You don't get banned for playing I different regions except for very constant switching that may be seen as account sharing

[red needle]

Ok so I can reinstall my game?

[dawn storm]

Having issues with my game. Whenever i try to buy things from the Flea or whenever i try to select items to sell them to a trader somehow my game minimizes

Seems to be most on the right side of the screen

[rustic elk]

looking for people to night raid with any map US-central/east servers lvl 35 and higher

[spark flame]

Got this back in insurance. How did they get my handguard off in raid?

[quiet summit]

They cannot

What happened is you insured the AKS-74N with the original handguard - Then you built the AK with new parts, but did not insure the new parts

So the base weapon was insured but the new add-ons were not

[quiet summit]

If you were never banned or forbidden from the game you can reinstall the game.

[quiet summit]

Is your game set on native resolution?

[dawn storm]

Yes

[quiet summit]

Are you using multiple monitors?

[dawn storm]

Yes, 2 total.

[quiet summit]

Try Windows+M, maximize Tarkie and see if it keeps doing it

[dawn storm]

Will come back to you with result!

[quiet summit]

Hokie dokie

[snow marsh]

Hello, can I buy something on the flee market and use it to barter with a trader?

[quiet summit]

The item has to be FIR to be used on flea market, but you can use it with a trader.

Sorry I misread at first.

[snow marsh]

So it's perfectly okay to buy a AESA on the flee market to purchase a weapon case form mechanic?

[quiet summit]

So
Barter on flea (❌)
Barter on trader (✅)
Yes that's fine.

[snow marsh]

I don't want to trade this weapon case though

Thank you! I didn't want to make a 150k mistake

[dawn storm]

It's fixed somehow. (i had shut down the pc because it diddnt work) everything works fine now. Diddnt reallt get to test your solution.
Thanks for the quick response either way!

[quiet summit]

Glad you got it figured out!

[rapid sleet]

Yo can someone help me, i keep getting locked out of my account

but only because of the BattleStateGames launcher, i can login on the website fine, no problem, but everytime i try on the launcher it says "Wrong email or password. ERROR: 206.

[quiet summit]

Reset your password, double check domain -- if you're still getting the issue then you will have to email them about it

Support email
'[e-mail]'

IIRC it may be out of your control

[rapid sleet]

got a 40 minute wait before i can try anything anyway so i'll email them now

[robust musk]

Yo, I just bought a standard version and downloaded the launcher, when I log in, it's asking me for a verification code that I don't receive in my mails

[quiet summit]

What email domain are you using?

[robust musk]

hotmail.com

[quiet summit]

Please try the following. https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/support/knowledge/362

[robust musk]

Nope still not receiving

[quiet summit]

Try the below

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

@robust musk After that -- You can try these remaining fixes that have worked for other people -- Every line break is a new fix

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

[robust musk]

Currently on the last task but nothing worked yet ...

[quiet summit]

I would use the last step on another network (If possible)

[robust musk]

Okay I got it to work by reseting my password!

ty for the help @quiet summit

[quiet summit]

[heady spear]

hey i just died in a raid. the first 30 min all cool, i looted a bit and killed some scavs. i had 2 weapons and ammunition, but when im going to extract i cant shoot my weapon or use my inventory, so a scav shoots me and i die with 2 medkits inthe inventory. Is that a bug or why i couldnt use my hands?

[paper barn]

Yeah sometimes reloads can get bugged so you cant shoot or switch weapons

[vivid briar]

How can I change the game from trying to be installed on C drive to D drive

I have no Space on C and whenver I try to change it by this it never works

[slim spruce]

The launcher's temp folder is on the same drive where the launcher is installed. You may need to change that in settings, if that is your problem.

I would recommend installing the launcher on the other drive to prevent issues.

[quiet summit]

Yes, it's a bug - rarely happens but annoying when it does; spamming esc/inventory usually fixes it, otherwise you'll have to restart

[vivid briar]

The launcher in on d but whenver I try to download it still shows the game installation path to be on c

[slim spruce]

Are you pushing the big install button?

[vivid briar]

Yes? this is what it says after

[slim spruce]

Push Change and select a folder on D

[vivid briar]

Incorrect installation path

[slim spruce]

If you are clicking this

It's wrong

You need to press the big install button below that.

[vivid briar]

Yes

[slim spruce]

?

[vivid briar]

I am clicking on the install buttom

[quiet summit]

Close out of what window you have currently open.

[slim spruce]

And you choose a folder like D:\EFT and it won't install there?

You can't install it in the same folder as the launcher

[vivid briar]

Yeah did that

[slim spruce]

send a picture of your error

[slim spruce]

Please make a new folder like EFT in D

You can't install in the root directory

[vivid briar]

oooh alright

just wasn't understanding that thank you

[slim spruce]

👍

[loud moss]

[crimson lance]

gone

[slim spruce]

What happened?

What error?

Emails can't be changed.

The email might not be sending to your email, depending if you have this problem.

What do you mean stolen?

[crimson lance]

prob scammed or smth

[slim spruce]

If it randomly said password wrong that doesn't mean the account is hacked. You just need a password reset.

What email provider do you use?

What email provider do you use? There are known issues with some.

It could be delayed. Also check in the spam folders in the mean time. For further help please wait for a reply from the support email.

Unfortunately there is not anything we can do on the discord, here.

What it sounds like to me is that the account had a glitch where it requires a password reset and your email can't get emails from the tarkov email service.

This doesn't mean the account is hacked.

[quiet summit]

o/ Good luck sir

[shell hemlock]

Not sure if this is the right channel, but im not able to purchase the game in the uk. I get to the stage where i have to approve the payment from the bank app on my phone, and it approves. But then the website gives me an error saying i cant complete the purchase and to contact support, which i have, but i thought id also ask here as i have no idea how long they will take to reply. Ive seen many people have had the same issue over the years but has anybody ever figured out the issue? Thanks

[quiet summit]

Did you contact BSG or xSolla support?

[slim spruce]

You need to contact xsolla for billing issues.

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

[shell hemlock]

Just the "contact support" page on the eft website, i had to submit a ticket

@slim spruceah right

Well ill do that too, thank you

[covert slate]

Who delete my message

Sessamy? Was it you?

[slim spruce]

don't spam emotes please

[covert slate]

Ok sorry dad

And it wasn’t really spamming they are meant to be together to make the picture

[median ruin]

But this is community support

[covert slate]

[dusky bough]

As soon as I press the play button the game window will appear with a blank white screen and then close itself.

[slim spruce]

Check integrity of the game files in the launcher at the top right on your name.

[atomic harbor]

my friend just purchased tarkov and when he clicks install, and tries to pull up the launcher... it doesn't pull up on his screen, any solution?

[dusky bough]

When the bar reached 100% it finished and went back to the normal game screen with no messages

[slim spruce]

It still doesn't launch?

[dusky bough]

It will launch the game but it will immediately crash

[slim spruce]

I'd need to know more about the problem.

[slim spruce]

Can you go to Start > type "view reliability history" and see if there's any error entries for when you crash? Look at the details and look for the fault module name for a clue to what's causing it.

[dusky bough]

There are a lot of AWCC logs mentioning Alienware

[slim spruce]

That's probably nothing.

[dusky bough]

Otherwise there is nothing mentioning tarkov or battlestate

[slim spruce]

Was the game ever launched on that machine?

[dusky bough]

Yes I bought the game 8 days ago and now it won’t work

[slim spruce]

try having the launcher and tarkov exe run as admin in right click > properties > compatibility tab > run as administrator

[dusky bough]

I have already tried that for the launcher and the game

[slim spruce]

All recent windows updates and windows 10 feature updates?

[dusky bough]

I’m on windows 11

[slim spruce]

You could try white listing the game and launcher folder in windows defender and reboot and try again.

But other than that, I do not have much else to suggest, as I do not know much about windows 11.

[foggy crown]

hello how can i get help with my account my endurance is stuck hasnt leveled up since liek lvl 10 my endurance is lvl 5 and im lvl 33 almost lvl 34 my strength is lvl 22 i posted pics of it on twitter tagging bsg and nikita but the game is almost unplayable where i have to stop every 50 mtrs i cant even run away from someone if needed

[median ruin]

I think you need to just report that bug cause there is no solution for that afaik

[dusky bough]

I’ll try that but windows defender nor bit defender give me warnings

[slim spruce]

Windows defender is notorious for issues with the game in my experience. Also, disable bit defender for the time being.

The antiviruses sound like they're causing it.

[foggy crown]

whej i try to send bug report it tellss me ive reached my limit try another day but i have not even tried to send report prior to now

[slim spruce]

Hmm. Well I guess you have to wait.

[wraith otter]

hey so what do i do if im trying to preorder and it gives me error 2001

[slim spruce]

dlss makes my game look a lil weird is it just me or what

[median ruin]

May he rest

[wraith otter]

uh so i bought the game and its not saying i own it in the launcher

[slim spruce]

Do you own it on your EFT profile page on the website?

[wraith otter]

yeah

[slim spruce]

Re-open the launcher

[wraith otter]

Okay reopened and still not here

[slim spruce]

Did you buy it on the official website?

[wraith otter]

Yep!

[slim spruce]

Make sure the account names match on the website and launcher and then check your payment method to make sure there were no charge backs.

[wraith otter]

okay holy crap thank zou

Got it working thanks for the help

[slim spruce]

Stuck up while you can

Flea gonna go soon too

[cunning dock]

lol, shit's about to hit the fan boys

I was just about to start the building of the solar panel, but can't buy the rest of the euros I need ... oops.. imagine how low it would take without traders to build the solar panel

What are you guys stocking up on?

[silk saffron]

but why lol

[snow marsh]

Hello, in what situation can you buy from a trader to sell on the flee market?

[vivid briar]

what is going on ? i am level 17 and i have them unlocked what is going on?

[vivid briar]

They are disabling traders for 5 days i guess

[vivid briar]

wth why?

[vivid briar]

Nikita posted a tweet saying "30k likes and ill remove traders for 5 days" and everybody liked it i guess

[languid solstice]

wyf

wtf you can sell only 99lv

[vivid briar]

yeah tarkov is now high as fuck

[languid solstice]

hahaha

[crude copper]

hello, i have a question, why they removed traders and fleamarket?

[brazen path]

nikita got 45k likes on a tweet

[crude copper]

so then they removed it

[brazen path]

only for like 5 days i think

[snow marsh]

does nikita think he's elon musk or something by driving markets based on tweets? 👀

[vivid briar]

like wth man this game now sucks

[torn ermine]

Guys

I cant load into map

Tarkov is loading and working but i cant play it

i am simply loading for 20-40 minutes and then marked as lost

[west citrus]

it's a good change against cheaters selling the stuff for Rubel an then sell for real money.

wondered first that something is broken

[umbral plank]

Why are they removing traders? Now ragman is gone is this an event? If so, how do they think this is enjoyable?

[loud moss]

It's an event. Nikita just doesn't really care

[storm turret]

Nikkita made a tweet that said if it takes 45k likes, he'll remove the flea and traders. And it got 45k likes

[vivid briar]

direct people to pins if they ask

love you all

[umbral plank]

Bro what?

Welp there goes the players base for a few days

[deft ocean]

[quiet summit]

You'll be fine.

[maiden lion]

Guys I need some help. I was prompted to log into my account just a few minutes ago (never happened before) and the email verification code is not being sent or isn't being received. What can I do?

[vagrant turtle]

am i the only one having issue with the forum?

[quiet summit]

Mine is working just fine.

[vagrant turtle]

mine no, while all other website is fine XD

[quiet summit]

Try accessing the site Incognito mode? (Without extensions)

[vagrant turtle]

the website itself is ok

i'll try the incognito mode

same with incognito...

wait, where is the website hosted?

[pale crest]

your javascript is dead

clear cache, cookies, disable adblocker if all else fails

fine for me

[vagrant turtle]

weird

i'll clear cache and such

did clear cache, not working

[quiet summit]

Not sure then, if you have access to a VPN you can try that

[vagrant turtle]

i'm wondering if it's not related to the current ukraine crisis...

i'm in France, i notified that i've lost access to some russian website, maybe it's the case here?

[slim spruce]

If you lost access the page would not load anything

[pale crest]

well, i cannot tell you about that since I'm in Russia, but from what I can tell it shouldn't impact anything

[slim spruce]

This problem is rare, about the forums not parsing correctly.

[pale crest]

well, the forum just straight up won't load for me now

[vagrant turtle]

😂

so, cleared cache and cookies, not working

i'm noticing that the forum takes time to loa

load*

[vocal cargo]

damn this update is ass as fuck

[grim hatch]

are you french?

[vagrant turtle]

yes, why @grim hatch ?

[grim hatch]

So am I and many others, it seems the issue is within the network in France, I am not sure what is causing it, everyone in france has this issue, myself included. To go around it, try using a VPN until it's fixed

to my knowledge it's the only way around this issue so far

and by VPN, I mean a VPN with a server outside of france of course

@slim spruce fyi^

[vagrant turtle]

askip il y a eu des attaques informatiques sur le réseau de orange, tu penses que c'est lié?

Oui, j'avais compris

i won't install a vpn just for that tho, i'll wait a fix

[slim spruce]

Ok

[grim hatch]

Nope it's not related to attacks or anything, connections are made well with the EFT server that hosts the forum, it just seems to be some files or specific stuff that is blocked for some reason.
I try to keep everything in english because english only is allowed here and it may help others who don't speak french.

That's all I know about this so far, I can't provide an ETA on the fix as well.

[vagrant turtle]

ok, understood, thx mate

[shut viper]

hey guys/gals where would i report a inventory item duplication ?

[quiet summit]

Bug report on the launcher
