  • Version 1.5.6

    Always make backups of your profile when adding, removing or updating mods!


    For SPT 3.11


    Fixed Issues :

    - Fixed an issue with the quest "Tools To Work With - Part 7" where the width requirements of the G36 wouldn't match and would cause issues with turning in the item

    - Fixed an issue with the quest "Planting the Evidence - Part 2" where extracting from customs wouldn't count


    Changes & Balancing :

    - Changed the attachment requirements from "PSO Scopes" to "Valday Optics" for the quest "Ideal For Someone With Taste - Part 4" since using PSO scopes at such a late(r) stage in the game can more annoying than challenging

    - Changed locales for the quest "Ideal For Someone With Taste - Part 4"


    ( Hope i didn't keep everyone waiting too long with the fixes, have been dealing with a lot of irl stuff lately ^^ )

  • Version 1.5.4

    Always make backups of your profile when adding, removing or updating mods!


    For SPT 3.11


    Fixed Issues :

    - Added missing Saiga-12K full auto to the find & hand over objectives for the quest "Light Of The Lotus - Part 5"

    - Fixed an issue with Lotus quests that require finding vanilla quest items ( now they require to have their respective quests completed first ) let me know if i forgot some

    - Hopefully fixed the issues for some of the story-quests related to Therapist and Lotus, specifically "Justified Involvement"

    - Changed the AK-101 gunsmith objective for the quest "Tools To Work With - Part 4" which hopefully fixes the issue some people were having ( if anyone made translations, locales have to be updated for the AK-101 requirements )




    I have been kinda busy recently because of irl stuff

    so i didnt have that much time to work on fixes and testing stuff and especially not much time ( and maybe motivation due to mental health ) work on new stuff but eventually i should be ready to continue the main questline with lightkeeper ^^

    - PMC Dogtags don't need to be found in raid anymore

    - The objectives for the quest "Search Warrant" don't need to be completed in one raid anymore because they were sometimes reset for some reason

  • Version 1.4.10

    Always make backups of your profile when adding, removing or updating mods!


    For SPT 3.10 ( not for 3.11! )

    I was very busy the last few days so I didn't have much time to prepare for 3.11, so I wanted to get out a few last fixes for 3.10 before starting on updating Lotus to 3.11, thanks for the patience ^^


    Fixed Issues :

    - Fixed an issue with the quest "RUAF Infiltrator - Part 6" where only ground zero was counted in the last objective

    - Fixed an issue with certain quests having their objectives only count when finishing the quest in a single raid


    I hope these are all

  • Hi everyone ^^

    just wanted to let everyone know that I'm pretty close to finishing the next "big update" for lotus, wanted to ask for some opinions:

    1. Should I upload all the files for the gunsmith quest presets somewhere and provide the link
    2. or include all the files directly somewhere in the Lotus folder
    Heart 1

  • Hi, just wanted to mention that under linux (So people running it in docker for example), the latest version fails to start.

    "const refQuestAssort = __importStar(require("../db/refQuestAssort.json"));"

    Fails due to case sensitivity. Renaming the requested resource to be not camelcase matches with the actual file it's looking for and resolves this issue.

    "const refQuestAssort = __importStar(require("../db/refquestassort.json"));"

    Hope this helps anyone running into the same issue after the update.

    • Or simply renaming the file to match the case-sensitivity. It is most likely wrong packaged in the actual zip from the author.
      Else, good work for the new quests! :thumbup:

    • I got help with the ref assort / questassort and didnt pay much attention to it since im on windows, ill see what i can do and will publish the fix in the next release :thumbup:

  • Hi, i still cant hand in the g36 for part 7 of tools to work with. I looked at the cheat sheet and copied it exactly but still wont turn in.


    The only thing that doesn't match to the image is that the NT-4 suppressor shows as NT4 on mine (no hyphen)

    • Hi, did you use another suppressor mount by any chance? also the gun needs to be folded and less than 5 slots in width. A screenshot might also help

    • hi sorry here is the screenshot :)


      JvPwQ4R

    • Hmm, strange, i could only guess, any mods that change certain attachment / weapon stats? otherwise id be out of ideas, some people had issues with the quests despite having the correct builds, i couldnt replicate these issues unfortunately.


      I could try reworking / remaking that specific objective and hope that the problem wont occur again for some people when i have the time for it

      Heart 1

    • I found the issue. If you fold/unfold, the recoil value changes. In an unfolded stock, you get a recoil value of 56/156, with a folded stock, that changes to 81/227.

      I am unsure whether this is due to other mods, as I have, i.e. the recoil rework, but nothing that screws with the base line values of gearpieces.

      The easiest solution would probably be to get rid of the "5 blocks wide max"-thing for a future update.

      Edit: To clarify, i built the weapon according to the build guide you (thankfully!) provided.

      Thumbs Up 1

    • I'm having the same problem. Getting stonewalled on this quest.
      I've built them all according to the guides and it's not letting me hand in the g36 either folded or unfolded. The recoil changing due to folding is definitely the issue. Currently trying to see if it's possible to get that recoil without a stock, but odds are it's impossible.
      Those requirements seem to be mutually exclusive.
      I can keep a stock and use a monster mini and get the recoil down to 216, but not 215. It's just BARELY out of reach it seems.
      Edit: I GOT IT!
      It's expensive, but it works:
      Replace scope w/ Gels + top w/ whatever scope meets specs. I used a razor or vudu.
      Replace foregrip w/ RK-2
      Here's the clutch part:
      Replace the silencer with the sf3p-556 or sf4p-556 and (REQUIRED) 556-mini monster.
      This was the ONLY orientation I could get the gun to meet these requirements. It had to be the mini monster for length with the unfolded stock and it had to be the rk-2 for eeking out the recoil requirement. There may be a different scope arrangement, but this is the one I know the best that gives more ergo, so I ran with it. Everything else is the same as the guide.
      I REALLY hope this helps someone, cuz I was struggling for over an hour trying to get this shit to work. SUPER niche, but in the infamous words of peanut: "I got 'eeeeeeeem!"

  • Hey there :)

    Currently on Light of the Lotus Part 5, but the only Shotguns counting for Found in Raid or Hand over are Saiga 12k's, nothing other will count.

    I assume, I got recognize problems with other mods, like Scorpion -> AK-12 won't count as AR.

    So it's probably a mod conflict but can't figure out, where the conflict sits :D

    • Hi, from what I know there shouldnt be any conflicts between Lotus and scorpion. I also looked at the file and there should be every gun listed under the shotgun category ( except for the mp-18 ), ill try to see if theres an issue ingame whenever i get the chance

      Thumbs Up 1

  • Hey folks, could someone help me with the Tools To Work With - Part 4 Quest? I don't know how to get my rifle below a weight of 3.6 kilos.

    • Hi, there's a tab for all the solutions for those quests if you are on 3.11x ^^ If you are on 3.10.x you can find them in the Lotus thread in the SPT discord server :thumbup:

    • Ahhh i am just blind, thank you! :) Great Mod btw!

      Heart 1


  • EDIT-     Just wanted to leave an edit since Lunnayaluna released a new update. My Trader Assort "barter_scheme" price edits in this comment are ONLY for Version 1.5.5 of Lotus!! The new Lotus update's Trader Assort json has some changes/new fields that are not present in my below edits so I would not suggest using these edits directly with Lotus Version 1.5.6 and any version other than v1.5.5 for that matter.

    If you're using my edits at all and experience any issues with Lotus, please restore the vanilla assort json included with the mod (then clear temp files in launcher) and make sure your issue is still present before reporting bugs to Lunnayaluna. I did my best to avoid mistakes and so far all is working for the players on my server but I did make a LOT of barter/price changes (around 315 items)... I don't want her chasing bugs that might not even be from her mod pepelaughing

    ---------------------------

    Orig.Comment:
    I just spent a while (entirely too long lmao) reworking Lotus's Trader Assort file rebalancing just about all of her inventory prices since I found a lot of her prices were pretty imbalanced, at least when used in combination with the Live Flea Prices checkpoint I chose to go with. I'm using the October 20, 2024 PVP Prices for Live Flea since currently the mod can't pull prices from Live, so these are the prices I balanced Lotus against (as well as vanilla traders). Big thanks to Lunnayaluna for all the work put into this awesome mod <3

    If you decide to use these rebalanced prices, the file you want to update is located at:

    "...\user\mods\Lunnayaluna Lotus\db\assort.json"

    Just replace the "Barter_Scheme" portion of the file with what I included below:



    Feel free to lmk if you notice any obscene price outliers and I might update this. I did the same for the custom trader "Artem" as well if you're using him too, check the comments on that mod's page 8) I'll be posting a similarly rebalanced set of prices for Scorpion soon too.

    Thumbs Up 2

    • The below version of assort.json in this comment is for Lotus Version 1.5.6 ONLY! It includes the price/barter changes I made for the previous version and also has the updated content present in the assort.json included with the update.


      DropBox Link <--- My edited assort.json file with rebalanced prices for Lotus Version 1.5.6. You don't have to download anything, you can click through the folders to view and copy the plain text contents of my assort.json, then replace the contents of your own file. You need to replace the entire contents of assort.json this time, not just the "barter_scheme" section because other parts of the file were updated in Lotus v1.5.6. The entire text contents of the file are too long to paste in a code block here or on pastebin, that's why I'm sharing via DropBox this time pepelaughing


      Once again, I did my best to avoid any mistakes while editing the file/merging the new changes but if you have any issues with Lotus while using my edits, please revert back to the original assort.json included with Lotus Version 1.5.6, clear your temp files from Launcher, and then ensure the issue is still present preferably on a fresh profile before reporting bugs to Lunnayaluna that could potentially stem from my edits and not her mod bugcatohwhy

  • Is Fuelist - Part 1 currently broken? Can't place the MS Marker and don't get the locate subtask accomplished when run around the fuel trailer. Only the kills counter goes up.

    • Hi, make sure you have the plugin ( .dll file located in BepInEx / plugins ) for Virtuals Custom Questloader installed, it should come with VCQL by default, otherwise it might also be a mod conflict

    • Thanks for quick response. I have VCQ installed. Might be a conflict. I will use Profil Edit to get this quest done. ;) I only have to figure out the quest id, didn't found it in the configs.

      Edit: Found it in VCQL ;)

      Thumbs Up 1

    • It seems that every locate subtask is broken. In Quick tripm to ULTRA I got the extract, but not the locate the office.... Will try, which mod causes this conflict.

    • To make sure you are in the correct zones you can use dynamic maps, if you have other traders that use VCQL you can test those aswell, if other modded trader quests dont work it might be a mod conflicting with vcql entirely / something went wrong during the installation

      You could try reinstalling VCQL again and making sure to use 7zip

      Thumbs Up 1

    • I already use dynamic maps and other traders are working correctly until now -.- I will try to reinstall nontheless.

  • Has anyone found solution for Lotus + AQP on existing profile? Is there any fix? Thanks

    • Hi, if you mean AQP - Algorithmic Quest Progression, check the modpage for it, it should have infos on compatibility :thumbup:, but as far as i know it requires a new profile so i dont exactly know what will happen when using it on an existing profile

    • Thank You for the response, I think the only way to make it work on exisiting profile is, as mentioned by someone below, to disable AQP, accept Lotus quests, enable it back (eventualy repeat before handing them in).

  • hi, by chance do you have a quest map? at least only written, i just want to see how long are the different quest branches and how many quests i haven't done yet

    • Hi, there is the quest file if that counts, otherwise you can also create a dev profile to see every quest listed

      Heart 1

  • Sup bro, after I've finished "Further ahead" there was next quest shall be "What a find - part 1", I've accepted it, got quest items. After I've reloaded game server and client, but now I don't have that quest anywhere in any state, but quest items persist... Well, in profile there is

    Code
                    {
                    "qid": "67efd429317486563c7ee2b2",
                    "startTime": 0,

                    "availableAfter": 1751564008
                }


    so it looks like for some reason it became time limited

    • hmm, managed to fix it

      Code
                      {
                    "qid": "67efd429317486563c7ee2b2",

                    "availableAfter": 0
                }

      after that quest is in accepted state and in list

  • Hello, in the mission "Further Ahead", in the part that asks to contact a BTR driver, I don't know how to do it. If someone could help me, I would appreciate it. I've attached a screenshot.


    screenshot

    • Hi, you need to accept a certain task from him ( if it doesnt show up not all conditions have been met ), you just need to enter the BTR on any map and talk to the driver and ask him if he has work for you or something, i dont remember the exact texts but thats roughly how it should work :thumbup:

  • Hey there, can i make a translate mod for Lotus and publish it on oddba forums? I plan to make a auto-translate mod for spt(like i18n for minecraft if you know that) its just a plan now, if u mind it....i"m sry just forget that

    • Sure, go ahead, just make sure not to ship the actual mod files but just the locales :thumbup:

  • Why using load order? This mod is were correct in the load order? Last? First? before SVM? After SVM? Why not say this, but not tips hot to use loadorder?

    • Its your choice depending on your mod settings, if you want certain settings to apply for vanilla traders + lotus, make it load after, if you dont want these settings for lotus make it load before

      Heart 1

  • Hello, thanks a lot for your mod, I've been having a lot of fun :)

    I just wanted to report a small issue with "Tools to Work With - Part 18". The requirement of muzzle velocity cannot be met due to the weapon barrel lowering it. You can increase it with a silencer but then it's impossible to meet the ergo and weight requirement.

  • Hi, I'm having trouble with the "Planting the Evidence - Part 2" mission. I tried the flash drive, but it won't extract from customs. I tried more than once, but I don't know what it could be. I've attached an image.

    pmc and exUSEC kills are counted now only for sr3m though scav kills are totally fine with other 9x39 weapon

    • Hi, i fixed the issue, i will upload a new release very soon, thanks ^^

  • oh, here comes another bug... :* the "Search Warrant" get something wrong, seems like the hidden Laptop did not exist in the seaside house, though the map guide me to the correct place( of course, the same place as the package of "Seaside Vacation").

    • Hi, just tried it out on 3.11, seems to work fine, the laptop even spawns before completing the previous objectives, any chance you had the quest "seaside vacation" open / completed at the same time?

    • oh! i didn't notice that, probably to be like the situation u said: i completed "seaside vacation" before the "Search Warrant" told me to take the laptop. :S same problem like the confliction of the postman pat.

  • Why does my merchant show traders is currently unavailable?

    Is it because I installed other merchant mods?

    • Hi, could you describe the issue a bit more detailed? Additionally providing a modlist could help

  • Im having an issue where the messenger app is only using half of the window. You can still scroll and access the traders' messages (mostly), aside from Lotus who when you click on the conversation appears to have nothing.


    Looks like this:

    • delete the conversation

    • Fixed the "half-screen" messenger, but messenger is still scuffed. A few of the messages cant be scrolled to. Slider bar still moves but the messages don't follow.


      Profile is scuffed, I presume?

    • Yeah possibly something wrong with the profile itself

    • Figured. Discord is saying its normally due to removing a trader. I no longer believe its this mod. Thanks!


      If it turns out differently, Ill be back to report.

      Thumbs Up 1

  • Hey I came across an incomp with another mod. Apparently Lotus doesn't like AQP (Algorithmic Quest Progression) by Dewardian Dev. Which is strange considering 3.10 Lotus worked completely fine with it. Wondering in the future there maybe a fix for it. If not then oh well.

    • Hi, i havent personally tried it out but if i had to guess the issue could either be related to some of the quests that i added in 3.11 or something with the load order, try changing the load order around and see if that can help :thumbup:

    • Okay so from what I dug up; within the AQP mod there is a config.json and inside it there is a line called "enableOverhaulModule". It was set to true by default but once I rewrote it to false Lotus's quests start to appear once I finish New Contacts. Should I let Dewardian Dev know about this issue? Or is it a Lotus issue? everything seems to work fine once I disable that overhaul module.


      Thanks for the help and info :)

    • Glad it works now ^^ But im unsure what the actual cause of the issue is, I guess asking couldnt hurt tho

    • How does changing the overhaul from true to false change the way the AQP works?

    • Figured I'd chime in here. When it comes to AQP, setting enableOverhaulModule to false seemingly breaks most of its functionality (which shouldn't be very surprising, given the name of this parameter and the nature of the mod.)


      A new profile with AQP installed starts with traders locked, as the mod unlocks them through the edited questline progression. Setting enableOverhaulModule to false will unlock traders that the player isn't supposed to have unlocked yet with AQP and cause the game to use the standard questline progression once again.


      The problem is that for whatever reason, something in AQP is preventing Lotus' quests being accessible. While setting enableOverhaulModule to false makes her quests appear, returning the setting to true after accepting them / completing them does not allow her questline to continue. If someone wanted to use AQP + Lotus together, they'd need to constantly edit AQP's config file to receive her quests, complete them, and continue.

  • Is it possible to turn off all the trades? I love the quests offered by the trader, but for me personally, the trades make the game too easy. I know I can simply not buy anything from the trader, but I figured I'd ask.

    • Hi, unfortunately there isnt really an easy way to do that, i could only think of manually deleting all the things from the files but i really wouldnt suggest doing that unless you know what you're doing and how it works

    • Yeah I won't fuck with the files bc I would prob just break things. I appreciate it, though. Love the mod and your work regardless<3

  • sorry for bothering you, but i found a bug(or maybe not?): i have finished the task "doing some digging", which meet the condition of "jusitified involvement"(therapist) and "state your business, doctor"(lotus), but only the later task was unlocked. :/


    according to the text, i guess Lotus' task means to take the therapist's one? but i cant do that since therapist's task is still locking. in fact, my freind told me that it may be a delay like the "gunsmith".

    • Hi, i think i messed up something with the IDs in the starting conditions, i can take a look at it real quick, thanks for the report :thumbup:

    • Alright i did some testing after applying a possible fix, looks like it works normally now, ill upload the fix later once im done change some of the gunsmith objectives

    • <3 :*

  • Hey, found another bug, you must love me :* . So, when it comes to the final quest for finding Lotus's men, if you have postman pat, the letter can only be found once. So you might want to use a different letter or a different item. I would suggest maybe using the letter from prapors "You've got mail" quest so there's no confusion.


    (I know postman pat is an early quest, I just was prioritizing other things. 8o)

    • Hi, it shouldnt matter as far as i know, you just need to grab it twice then, the quest "youve got mail" is on streets of tarkov and i want to avoid having anything streets related in lotus atm, i can take a look at it tho and see if everything works normally :thumbup:

    • Alright i tried it out and you were right, classic tarkov moment i guess, ill make the starting requirements have the quests which contain the respective quest items, thanks for the report ^^

    • No worries, you do great work.

    • Can confirm, just ran into the same issue, died with the letter though and then it never reappered. Had Post-Man pat and that quest active at the same time. Couldn't fix it at all, had to give myself the letter 2 times so i could hand them in as they weren't spawning even after editing my profile

    • ill include the fix it in the next release

  • Where can i find quest weapon builds "Tools to work with" and "Getting familiar with weapons" for older versions of the mod? Is there any repository for 3.10 spt versions?

    • Hello, I believe i still have the images saved somewhere, I could upload them to the "Lotus" thread in the SPT discord server, builds for the questline "Getting Familiar With Weapons" should be the same in 3.10 and 3.11

  • Hey, first of all I just want to say that the mod is really great — I really need more quests and it makes the gameplay a lot more fun. However, I do have a problem. In Lotus Fuelist Part 1, I can’t mark the fuel tank in the underground area. Is there a fix for this coming soon, or is it something on my end?

    • Hi, its usually a user error, likely a mod conflict or incorrect installation, make sure you fully installed virtuals custom questloader including the plugin ( VCQLQuestZones.dll located in BepInEx/plugins ), if you use fika in some way you need to make sure everything is installed on every client

    • "I loaded this mod with SP EFT Manager. The Virtual Custom Quest Loader was automatically loaded as well. I don’t know what to do, because I really want to play those 200 quests.

    • "The plugin was missing, and I’ve added it now. Hopefully everything works correctly now. Thank you!

  • Hi, having the issue with Tools to work with - Part 4 as well.

    The exact attachments you have on mods page doesn't seem to be working anymore.


    Here's my build - https://kappa.lol/flzsIF.png (The weapon is brand new, 100% quality)


    Any recommendations would be amazing.

    • hello, i tried it out myself on 3.11.3 and it was accepted normally so it is likely a mod conflict, any mod that changes something about weapon / attachment stats could be the issue

    • Thats weird.


      Because a few other friends have this quest completed, and we are playing on the same server. Since then we haven't really added any new mods.

    • These are the mods we are using - if it helps

    • hmm strange, well i could try looking at the traces and errors logs to see if they have any info on that, you could send them here by any chance?

    • I am very new to this - if you could guide me on how I can get them - that'd be amazing.

  • hello can someone help me with Tools to work with-part 2 I can't seem to figure out what I am doing wrong.

    • hi, you can check the solutions for lotus' gunsmith tasks on the modpage, unfortunately i can't view your image so i can't look at the build

    • I fix it now you should do it because I can't see the solution to that mission

    • Oh i see, you're still on 3.10.x, which means the builds from the solutions wont work because the quests were reworked, you can still find the builds in the "Lotus" thread in the SPT discord server tho

    • THANK YOU. how do I join discord

    • i think if you press on "dashboard" located in the top row on this website there should be a link somewhere
