## Launcher related questions
|
|
|
|
### The launcher closes as soon as it opens
|
|
|
|
- In your client directory, got into `EscapeFromTarkov_Data\Managed\`
|
|
- Copy the following files :
|
|
- `0Harmony.dll`
|
|
- `Assembly-CSharp.dll`
|
|
- `Newtonsoft.Json.dll`
|
|
- `NLog.dll`
|
|
- `NLog.SPTarkov.Common.dll`
|
|
- `UnityEngine.dll`
|
|
- `UnityEngine.CoreModule.dll`
|
|
- `UnityEngine.ImageConversionModule.dll`
|
|
- `zlib.net.dll`
|
|
- Paste them where `Launcher.exe` is located *(root directory of the client)*.
|
|
|
|
### The launcher reports that no servers are available
|
|
|
|
Make sure that `Server.exe` says that the server is running, then press the refresh button in the launcher.
|
|
|
|
### The launcher reports that no connection can be established
|
|
|
|
Make sure that `Server.exe` says that the server is running.
|
|
|
|
### Error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
|
|
|
|
- Start the server *(Server.exe)*.
|
|
- Start the client *(EscapeFromTarkov.exe)*.
|
|
- Wait about 10 seconds on the game loading screen.
|
|
- Close the game *(`Alt + F4`)*.
|
|
- Start `Launcher.exe`.
|
|
|
|
If this does not solve your issue, make sure that you've also ran the game from your official Escape From Tarkov installation once before.

## Server related questions
|
|
|
|
### Installing mods
|
|
|
|
Mods should be added the `\mods` directory, located in the server directory. If, for some reasons, the directory does not exist, create it.
|
|
|
|
<!-- TODO: check if error still exists. (IMO it should be covered in the install guide and not mentioned here. -->
|
|
### Error: "[ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "data" argument must be of type string or an instance of [...]"
|
|
|
|
In order to fix this error, you need to either uninstall your current NodeJS version and install NodeJS v12.16.3, **or** if the error is coming from `logger.js` then:
|
|
|
|
- Open `core/util/logger.js`.
|
|
- On line `43`, replace `fs.writeFileSync(filepath);` with `fs.writeFileSync(filepath, '');`.
|
|
- Save the file and re-run server.
|
|
|
|
## Client related questions
|
|
|
|
### Error: "Input string 'number' is not a valid integer."
|

|
|
<!-- TODO: Source the img from our server. Using Gyazo as a CDN is against it's usage condition -->
|
|

|
|
|
|
**⚠️ If you want to make any changes in your character profile file, close both the game and the server, none of these should run ⚠️ .**
|
|
|
|
If you encounter this error, you need to:
|
|
|
|
1. Go into `user/profile/yourProfileID/character.json`.
|
|
2. Search for the number appearing in the error
|
|
3. Remove the **".5"** of the number
|
|
4. Save the file
|
|
5. Start the server
|
|
|
|
### Game stuck on the loading screen
|
|
|
|
Your client version is wrong. Use the lastest files available in the SPT-AKI's guilded server and read the install guide.

|
|
### Getting the lastest version of SPT-AKI
|
|
|
|
Head over the [`#tutorials`](https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub/groups/B36wYEeD/channels/16291b64-bd22-4e1a-8af5-11f5e69fd9d8/docs) chan, on the [SPT-AKI's guilded server]((https://www.guilded.gg/senkospub)).

|
|
### Playing with friends / multiplayer
|
|
|
|
In order to play with your friends, you need to buy an Escape From Tarkov copy [here](https://www.escapefromtarkov.com/preorder-page).
|
|
|
|
*SPT-AKI will not have multiplayer capabilities*. It isn't on our "roadmap" and is not the goal of the project. If you ever find videos of people playing with others, it's not made by the SPT-AKI developers and is not related to it.

|
|

### Using the underbarrel grenade launcher
|
|
|
|
The underbarrel grenade launcher (GP-34) have issues when reloading that will block your character and prevent you from anything else in a raid.
|
|
|
|
It's not meant to be useable *(at the moment)*, otherwise it would be available on the official game.
|
|
|
|
### No bots during raids
|
|
|
|
In order to get bots to spawn, you need to check the `Enable PVE` checkbox in the raid screen.
|
|
|
|
### Stuck in the right click menu UI
|
|
|
|
To fix this, you can reduce your mouse right click speed in the windows options.
