Requires EFT 0.13.1.3.25206 (released 28th July 2023)

Hotfix #1 2023/07/08:

• Fixed an issue where exiting a raid would fail and you'd be stuck on a black screen

Release notes

Due to the sheer volume of hotfixes made for 3.6.0, it was decided to create a 3.6.1 to ensure everyone was on the same version. This hopefully alleviates issues mod makers are facing in trying to determine what version of 3.6.0 players are using.

We also included a few nice bug fixes.

Mod compatibility

• 99% of server mods made for 3.6.0 are compatible
• 99% of client mods made for 3.6.0 are compatible

Profile compatibility

• 3.5.x profiles are compatible with 3.6.0

Automatic install instructions (Recommended)

• Download Escape from Tarkov from https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/
• Download the SPT-INSTALLER tool and follow the instructions

Updating from 3.6.0

As the EFT version didn't change, you can extract the contents of the RELEASE-SPT-3.6.1-25206.zip into your existing 3.6.0 folder to update, make sure to overwrite all files

Manual install instructions

• Download Escape from Tarkov from https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/
• Copy the live Tarkov folder to another location, call it something like "spt361" (Do NOT copy to a protected location, e.g. your Desktop or Program Files)
• Do not remove the live Tarkov folder, it must remain in the original install location for SPT to function
• Download and run the downgrade patcher found here
  • Make sure to read the instructions (found here) carefully
• Copy contents of RELEASE-SPT-3.6.1-25206 (found at the bottom of this post) into your newly created 'spt361' folder using 7Zip
• Run Aki.Server.exe and wait for it to start
• Start Aki.Launcher.exe
• Enter any username into the username box (NOT the same details as your live account)
• Click login - choose the edition you want (EoD, Standard, etc)
• Click 'Start game'

Additional notes on installing manually can be found here

Upgrading from 3.5.x / Migrating existing profiles to SPT 3.6.1

• Make sure your live EFT is updated
• Download and copy the installer into a new folder, name the folder something like 'spt361'
• Run and let it complete, this will be your new SPT folder
• Copy the user/profiles folder from your old SPT 3.5.x folder into your new SPT 3.6.1 folder
  • It is recommended to download updated versions of all mods you had instead of copying them over from your old SPT folder
  • Using mods made for an older version of SPT can cause various issues/strange behaviors, at worst it can corrupt your profile
  • Profiles used with mods that add items to the game/change item values (e.g. Realism) that are migrated over REQUIRE an updated copy of the mod to be installed, not doing so can result in profile corruption
• Your old SPT folder can be deleted to save space

CHANGES

ADDED

• Added functionality to persist insured gear durability values after a raid
  • Items returned to you should have the correct durability
• Added code to show xp gained after a scav raid

UPDATED

• Blacklisted old hand scythe from PMC backpack loot
• Adjust flea prices of electronics to be no larger than x11 the handbook price

FIXED

• Fixed TerraGroup Trail quests lacking non-english locales
• Fixed TerraGroup Trail 15/16/17/18/19 requiring no quests to be accepted
• Fixed airdrop error when server tries to add weapon to crate

MODDERS

• Altered ragfair.json/unreasonableModPrices to be a dictionary keyed by item type (MOD/WEAPON etc)

The example mods have been updated for this release

Older versions of the example mods can be found here

• All resolvable classes can be found here
• Code documentation can be found here - Outdated

Known SPT issues

• RARE: Sometimes you'll start a map with no extracts, the only way to escape is to press alt+f4
• Some quests need PMCs to spawn in map locations with no bot spawns, making them impossible to complete (e.g. kill x PMCs in scav fortress/base)
• Selecting the overview tab as a scav can break your client - workaround: alt+f4 to escape
• Your active flea offers are marked as expired when the server is offline and items are returned in the mail
• Flea categories don't always show the correct number of offers when filtering by item
• Extracts are not the same as live, scavs can spawn in PMC spots
• The server will not load when placed in a folder path containing Unicode characters (Japanese and Korean characters especially)
• Looting a PMC dogtag doesn't always show their name on the post-raid kill screen
• Some high level items unlocked through quests are missing from traders' assorts, these will be added as we unlock them on live and dump the data
• Insured quest items that are consumed in a quest can be returned to the player
• The hideout wall is a hot mess right now, BSG have refactored how it works and we need to gut all of the server code that interacts with it and start again. Expect weirdness.
• Clicking sort on a container can sometimes cause items to vanish
• Event quest TerraGroup Trail Part 6 don't unlock the trader item for purchase
• Leaving a raid via a car extract does not give Fence reputation points
• Unread message count never decreases
• Lavatory crafts have their progress reset when performing inventory actions

Known NON-SPT issues

• BSG have blacklisted a lot of high-level items from the flea. You can disable this blacklist by using a mod/editing configs/ragfair.json/dynamic/blacklist/enableBsgList/false
• Rogues are insanely difficult, this matches live
• Tagging items in raid with special characters, e.g. , or " can corrupt the profile on exiting the raid
• Using horde mode on maps like Customs will cause large numbers of sniper scavs to spawn together in clumps, avoid using horde mode on all maps except factory
• Receive All shows when nothing can be collected from mail
• The first time you turn the generator on inside the hideout causes a bug where the client asks for it to be switched off instead of on, clicking the power button on/off again fixes this
