  • Version 1.5.1

    :!: If you don't use the f mod, you don't have to update. :!:


    Anyways here's what's changed:


    Fika compatibility. Only hosts will see boss notifications.


    Client's and Host's both still see the detection notifications as those are accurate for all.

  • Version 1.5.0

  • Version 1.4.1

    Quick bugfix for Detection feature not respecting intel center level.


    The Detection feature tells you when a boss has *physically* spawned in your raid. This is different to the normal notifier feature that only tells you where they *will* spawn. I know this isn't clear in the mod description that'll be worked on next.

  • your mod is broken!! make me struggling whole week just bcuzz boss braindead

  • Is there anything in the mod that would cause it to interfere with SAIN? When I install this and have SAIN and Waypoints, my boss bots just stand in spawn.

    • So I've been having the same issue. I think it is defiantly this mod that is causing it unfortunately. I've removed it and the bosses are not stuck anymore. Hopefully he can get a fix soon! I love this mod

    • +1

  • It seems Partisan isn't affected by the notifier, I have him set to 100% spawn on woods but it didn't let me know he was there. And yes, I killed him in the raid.

  • Amazing idea to connect it with the intel center.

  • change the tag to SPT 3.10

    Heart 1

  • it supports 3.10 now right?

    Heart 1

  • PSSSST still 3.9

    Heart 1

  • PLEASE UPDATE TO 3.10!!!!!

  • This mod is god tier

  • hi i have a problem when mod is installed all bot and player stay at they spawn and do nothing is there anyway to fix it?

  • Are there plans for updating this to 3.10?

  • Peak mod

  • Boss notification on customs is so confusing.

    What are these?

    -oldAZS

    -tank square

    -block post

    -crossroads

    -bridge


    The only ones that i can identify are

    Scav base

    Customs

    Factory center

    Ruaf

    • It's based on the zone ids in the code for the game. Unfortunately they don't make a lot of sense sometimes. Old AZS is old gas station, tank square and block post I think are to the right of scaffold. Bridge is the bridge, and crossroads I think is the road that ruaf extract is on.


      I'm super busy with work currently, but after I work on the full fika support im hoping to get around to localisation support and making the names more understandable

      Thumbs Up 2

    • I spent some time in 3.9.x and narrowed it down pretty good.


      oldAZS - Old Gas, as Mattdokn said.


      Tank Square - this one is new, I don't recall seeing that spawn in the previous version, I'll respond once I figure it out.


      Block Post - Roadblock near sniper scav and New Gas. Generally that whole strip of road.


      Crossroads - Pretty large area. I've found the spawn is about scaffold, busses, dorms road, and the bridge near new gas.


      Bridge - As Mattdokn mentioned, it's the main bridge to and from big red. The spawn is Dorms side.


      Now for everyone that isnt aware:


      Scav Base - This is stronghold.


      Customs - Found this to be Big Red area. Including the storage containers.


      Factory Center - This is new to me. I haven't seen this one.


      RUAF - Well, RUAF. Spawn will generally be from the wall near bridge, all the way to extract.

  • The boss notification shows up, but the boss is nowhere to be seen, i know that isnt related to this mod, but someone have any ideia of what is causing this??

    • If you're using SWAG+Donuts, check the pinned comment on that mod page. Otherwise you can try using dynamic maps to show the boss' live location during your raid.

  • I went straight to downloading this mod as soon as I got hammered in by tagilla three runs in a row :D this is sick

  • pleas add notificate for scav raiders

  • Sorry, my English is not very good. How can I find the notification text and have it translated?

    • I am sorry, I don't have support for translations yet. If you would like to contribute to the project get in touch with me on discord! <3

  • So I suppose Fika dedicated host will still do the same as before? So actual players wont see random boss presence no matter is it spawned or not?

    • Presence notifications still appear, but the initial notifications when you press O and at raid start no longer show when you're a client.

    • There's a beta release on the fika discord if you'd like to test it out. Brings back full functionality

  • I love this mod but unfortunately the location infos are really misleading because i can only estimate the proper point where they are. Is there no way to change the names to the actual one?

    • Unfortunately not sorry. The zone ids are all the game gives when a boss spawns. You can use Dynamic Maps for a more radar like alternative.

    • Thanks, i will just use both in combination.

    • Already using Dynamic maps they don't show up, only dead bodies afterwards

    • you need to enable it in the config iirc. Nothing will show until they actually spawn into the game. For Boss Notifier that spawning in part is when the detected in vicinity notification gets sent.

  • Could the mod be malfunctioning due to SWAG? I've been playing for several days and I've never found a single boss.

  • Is there any way to make it work like in 3.8.x where it just show killa @location
    Thank you

  • Hello Mattdokn, when i install the lastest version of boss notifier, all my bots (scavs, PMCs, bosses) dont moving, shooting and etc. Its look like when i install the mod the AI disabling momentally, but i install mod following the tutorial. So, can u help me pls?

    • can you share your plugins folder with me? just a screenshot of it should be enough

    • Could you send them to me on discord? Discord doesn't like links to images anymore :(

  • Is there a chance Donuts/ realism can mess with this mod? I get the notification that a boss spawns but there is no boss in the raid

    • possibly, I tested with swagnuts and svm only. you can use the detection feature to see if a boss has spawned in the raid and maybe ran away from you. with Sain they tend to run around a bit.

    • I want to second this after doing some testing. I'm using Realism with SAIN & SWAGDonuts alongside others. So far i figured out two false positives (default boss notifier settings, checked with dynamic maps):


      1. A boss spawns once but the notification gives out two different places (the last one is correct)

      2. A boss is located notification but never spawns (waited all the time till raid ends)


      I suspect this has something to do with Realism. Before i activated the boss spawn tweaks in realism everything seems fine. Let me know if i can give you any further informations and thank you for such a nice mod!

    • did you run around? the bosses spawn when you get near iirc.

    • I did indeed run around the boss spawns when I received the notification that the boss had spawned. Using dynamic maps, I was able to monitor all the pmcs and scavs as they spawned, died, extracted, etc. The boss did not spawn in even as the total number of bots in the raid fluctuated.


      When your notification says that there is no boss, it is 100% accurate. Just having a hard time getting this mod to play nice with the other essential gameplay mods.

      Heart 1

    • so does the removing the mod work? or is it an spt issue? like the mod tells you the boss spawned but the game itself doesnt spawn the boss

  • Noticed a problem. When going on reserve and Gluhar spawns, the notifier will say the boss spawned in Black Pawn. However, he actually spawns inside White Knight. I know he couldn't have ran to white knight from black pawn because I happened to spawn outside white knight when I got the notification that he spawned in black pawn. Then I see him and all his guards are inside. Not sure if I have mods that mess up the notifier or theres an error in the dll code.

  • is it possible to get a map with the locations that boss notifier uses? i have no idea where some of the locations are like 'red house' on woods, i have over 2k hours but half of the locations dont make sense to me

    • This should be able to help out. It's a bit dated so no ground zero unfortunately. I feel like this is the major lacking point of the mod but the only way I can think to remedy it is to either create my own maps that layout the different zones in the game, or to add an ingame method to see the names of zones with a sort of waypoint to them.

      3.1.1 Default Spawn Locations and BotZoneNames

    • actually this is exactly what i was asking for, sorry if i didnt explain it correctly. i didnt know these maps existed but they are very helpful, though no gz and streets seems to need work

  • Hi! I have a question: is it possible to change detection requirements from Intellligence Centre to Bird's Eye backpack?

    To make it more balanced and less cheating. Since you will have to obtain backpack and also bring it to the raid to see if boss on the map

    • That's a good idea! I played with the idea for having an equipment requirement but I never got around to learning how to implement that. My original idea was a sort of compass or radio.

      Heart 1

  • Is there any way to localize the message, like I'm thankful the message tells me where boss might be, but i really don't know where "Big rock" is?

  • I love the mod, works really well and we also run it in our server (works only for host but thats ok).
    I only have 1 suggestion to make since we kinda have a "balanced" server it would be cool to be able to have the Detection requirement work without the level requirement.

    So i can set it as follows
    level 1 its only dectecting when going near
    level 2 is showing on start or "o" with no position
    level 3 is showing on start or "o" with exact position

    would be cool if it would work like that

    atm we have

    level 1 show on start no position

    level 2 show when near

    level 3 show exact position
    since it did not work like the above example!

    EDIT: works 100% of the time and even with custom bosses.

    Heart 1

    • Which part of your intended setup doesn't work? I think you can have level 1 only show when you get nearby, and then have the other two just be higher levels and it should work no?

    • tried it and it did not work

    • What part doesn't work? I don't understand sorry.
      Setting Intel Center Detection Requirement to 0 and putting everything else at level 4 doesn't show a detection notification?

  • It doesn't work well when I use MPT to play with my friend.I have the task to kill KILLA.When we entered a raid,he toled me that KILLA would spawn near the cencer.But in my screen,it only told me that "No Bosses Detected".At last,we didn't find KILLA in the ULTRA.So what's wrong with this mod?Is it a bug?

    • No support for Fika/MPT yet. You'll have to wait sorry.

  • okay so this mod works for me 99% of the time. The only thing that isn't working is when the cultists spawn. I changed the cultist spawn rate in SWAG + Donuts to 100% and played 3 raids and it never notified me. and one raid i went to kill reshala and I completely ran by the and the priest scared the fuck outta me. At first I thought the spawn rate wasn't working but it was and I just wasn't getting notified.

    • I can second this. Hunting cultists on woods specifically, using SVM to get 100% spawn for Cultists, no notifications.

    • also i used SVM to change spawn rate and it didn't work because I have swag which you can also change the spawn rate in, I think they conflict with eath other
