SPT 3.8.0 (29197)

on GitHub

Requires EFT 0.14.1.2.29197 (released 14th March 2024)

Release notes

We started work on 3.8.0 on the 28th of October 2023. After 5 months of almost daily code changes, 1200+ commits, 610+ files edited or added, 12+ client version changes, 10+ code contributors, 32+ test releases, 200+ translators and 25+ testers. It's finally done.

It's not perfect and there will be bugs so please temper your expectations. There's always 3.8.x (:

It's hard to summarize what was worked on as we modified/improved nearly every subsystem in SPT. It's easier to point you to the change-log below.

A few features were not completed for this release and will hopefully be added at a later date:

• Light-keeper giving rewards in-person
• Some end-game quests after the light-keeper quest line were not dumped and do not exist / are out of date in SPT
• Water collection station isn't a perfect emulation of live
• Car extract rep gain is not included on post-raid screen

As always don't DM/tag a modder asking when they're going to update. If you're a modder and people are doing this let someone with the @staff role know in discord

Huge thank you to everyone who contributed, It was very much a group effort:

• The testers who found and wrote up detailed bug reports
• Coders who wrote fixes and created features
• Client debuggers
• Data dumpers
• People who let us use their profiles to gather data, trader and quest data
• Translators who converted hundreds of lines into multiple languages
