Like a Boss 1.2.2

Feel like Tarkov boss

Do you want to add variety to the gameplay as a scav? Then this mod is for you!


With a certain chance you have the opportunity to play as a scav boss.


Contains a configuration with which you can configure itanimeokay.



There are a few things I want to make clear:

  • If "reroll_on_game_start" enabled, scav timer will be restarted as well.
  • Scavs can still shoot you if you have a bad reputation.
  • You will spawn at the PMC spawnpoints.
  • Bosses with the same type as yours may still be on the location.
  • Followers and scav's do not listen to you, considering you an ordinary scav.

All this will be fixed in future versions.


  • Version 1.2.2

    -Kolontay has been added to the boss list

    -added the ability to set the boss chance for reputation level 0

  • Version 1.2.1

    Fixed a bug that reroll the scav profile if you received runthrough status

  • Version 1.2.0

    I fixed "fast reload speed" and "no foosteps", also i found a new way to reroll scav profile, now it reroll profile even if you fail the raid.

  • Version 1.1.0

    fixed scavProfile.Quest error.

    fixed black screens.

  • Version 1.0.0

  • Hey there, thanks for the mod!


    I've found a bug that I think is caused by your mod. I think your mod changes the baton in some way? ("6540d2162ae6d96b540afcaf"). After equipping it, I lost access to the pmc melee holster and had to edit the profile to delete it.

  • Thank you for just making such an interesting mod, because my skills are very poor and I often get killed by the AI, so I wanted to ask if I can adjust the scav's health through a mod? ;(

  • i have one question
    i don't know how i am supposed to set the Chance to become the boss at each fence reputation level

    always shows a 1% for me, can some one please show me how to set a 20% at every reputation lvl

  • Curious. What is defined as 'exotic' items?

    • Reshala's golden pistol, Killa armor, Killa helmet, Sanitar Bag, Tagilla's Hammer, etc.

    • Thanks. I also noticed when playing as Sanitar he has no meds at all, is this a random chance thing? I think he should always spawn with meds as he's somewhat a 'medic' like in the name.

    • okay, i will fix it

  • Funny idea, yet almost unplayble sadly, case regular scav(that just got boss HP and gear) - cant handle amount of boss gear. Weight i mean.
    For example - i just got Birdeye that from start was packed 60+ kg of 68 maximum.

  • so i played a bit and did some scav raids and now out of nowhere my scav cooldown is 9 hours!?!? did this happen to anyone else or knows how to fix?

    • Enable "reroll_on_game_start" and "remove_scav_cooldown" in config file, this will regenerate scav profile and reset your scav cooldown timer. Also please tell me what you were doing before this happened.

    • nvm i fixed it somehow i ithink i played with the remove scav cooldown and then i downloaded a server value manager and changed the scav cool down

  • where i need to put the mod? beplnex or mods?

  • Hey this is a really nice mod! but when i spawned in as tagilla i only had the default pmc hp of like 440. would it be possible for you to make it so you would have the same hp as the bosses normally have? that would be awesome to just be able to run at people and have fun!

    • The mod already provides such a function, most likely you have a conflicting mod that also changes the amount of player HP.

    • thanks for the fast reply i managed to find out which mod was causing the issue and bruteforce fixed it! <3

  • Hello, i have a problem, with the fence rep, when i extract or died with a random scav my rep go down to 0.45

    With the profile editor i set rep to 1.50 for testing, extract then rep go down at 0.45


    If anyone have a fix, it would be great :)

    • My mod does not interact in any way with the Fence reputation, perhaps you have a conflicting mod or something.

    • Yes some files where in conflict, But now the mod work fine after complete reinstallation.

      Thx !

  • Please put mod in archive like others "user" or "BepInEx"

    • ikr

    • just a small tip for people who don't sort their mods this way: always check the tag of server or client mods before downloading, server always goes in user and client goes in BepInEx

  • When loading in as Zryachiy I noticed his SVD did not have a stock. Could this be a bug?

    I had a similar thing happen with Kaban, but I'm more certain it's unintentional with Zryachiy.

    • I use a standard scav profile generation system, so if the stock is missing, that’s what the game developers intended

  • Please, I'd love to see you get (ALL THE CLOTHES) access and then add this author's first-person arm skin to the (LIKE A BOSS) first-person arm skin, as it makes the player more immersive, as if they really are bosses ;( ;( ;(

  • Hi, I have a question. What is this item 6540d2162ae6d96b540afcaf? I was trying to search it on item finder but can't find it

  • hey bro the mod is fire, everything works perfect but i would ask you for one thing pls? could you make like that the hands are from the bosses too? that would be great bc its kinda triggering me the whole time, the mod alltheclothes may help you!

    • There are no models of boss hands in the game, and I don’t know how to make them by myself.

    • YOU CAN TRY TO APPLY FOR MOD ACCESS IN THE COMMENT SECTION OF (ALL THE CLOTHES), BECAUSE I ALSO APPLIED FOR PERMISSION IN THE COMMENT SECTION OF (ALL THE CLOTHES), SO THAT YOU CAN SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF FIRST-PERSON ARM SKIN :*

      Thumbs Up 1
  • Okay, this mod is amazing. Even the voice lines work. Amazing job.


    For those who have issues with scav friendly fire, you can change this using profile editor mod on this site. Change scavs and bosses to always be friendly when playing as a scav.


    Also would there be a chance to make a separate mod or optional file to play as the guards as well? Be cool to run around following one of the bosses as their 'guard'.

  • Здравствуйте ,извините что беспокою

    можно инструкцию что как делать

  • After installing the latest version I get a black screen after I die

    • I am also getting this error on game start.

    • never mind, fixed the black screen issue, but I still get this error when I have re-roll profile enabled.

    • Thanks for the report, I'll see what I can do about it

    • I think I fixed it, try downloading a new version

    • did you already upload the new version? I got the exact same problem as mention above.

      (I downloaded the mod about 15 minutes ago or so.)



      I got this error code down at the bottom, I think that error was caused by the fact that I am trying to launch the game with your mod installed and a new profile, it was probably supposed to enter in the

      if (!fenceInfo || !pmcData)
      {
                  return 0;
      }

      line, but didn't or something like that and it bugged it seems. I am not exactly sure if it is what is happening, but that is my best guess, since it worked on an already made profile.

  • Why are skavs shooting me when I'm tagilla and i killed 3 Pmcs with the Sledgehammer?

    • The mod does NOT make the other bots friendly, it just let you play as a boss. It's in the thing the mod creator want to make clear.

    • skavs didn't shoot me when i was birdeye,priest,killa so it was kinda weird since technically i did nothing wrong and i do have 6+ skav rep so they should'nt shoot me at all so i do think it was a bug.

  • @Toha3673, Your changes to v1.2.0 seem to have worked. Now after dying as a Scav Boss, it generates another Scav Boss. Thanks.


    Appears you set the new config.json option "remove_scav_cooldown": true, HOWEVER your [Overview] Description shows it as "remove_scav_cooldown": false, //removing the scav cooldown. I personally think any mod with options that can change a games defaults, should be set to "not be enabled" by default, letting the user decide whether to turn in on. Either way, your description and default options you decide to use should match.


    EDIT:

    v1.2.1 (Mar 29, 2024)

    - Guess not......


    config.json:

    - "remove_scav_cooldown": true

  • 这里有一个建议:因为游戏没有BOSS的第一人称手臂视角皮肤,玩家只能看到默认的SCAV手臂皮肤,所以你可以尝试获得所有的衣服All The Clothes(笔者制作了BOSS的第一人称手臂视角皮肤),并一起使用这个模组来让BOSS变得更好 ;)

    • Thanks for the suggestion, I'll think about it.

  • is there a way to remove some of the bosses on the list?

  • Hello, I downloaded your mod. But you have to wait 57 minutes for the wild one to go on a raid. -- https://ibb.co/LSgxj8D

    • u can change than in gamefile



    • in Aki_Data\Server\database\globals.json find "SavagePlayCooldown": 1500,

      "SavagePlayCooldownNdaFree": 1500 and set them to what u want

    • And again I - I have these values in the globals.json file and do not need to change--

      "SavagePlayCooldown": 1500,

      "SavagePlayCooldownDevelop": 0,

      "SavagePlayCooldownNdaFree": 1500,

      "SessionsToShowHotKeys": 100,

      "SkillAtrophy": false,

      "SkillEnduranceWeightThreshold": 0.65,

      "SkillExpPerLevel": 100,

      "SkillFatiguePerPoint": 0.6,

      "SkillFatigueReset": 200,

      "SkillFreshEffectiveness": 1.3,

      "SkillFreshPoints": 1,

      "SkillMinEffectiveness": 0.0001,

      "SkillPointsBeforeFatigue": 1,

      "SkillsSettings": {

      "AdvancedModding": [],

      "AimDrills": {

      "WeaponShotAction": 0.2

    • change 1500 to 0 is time for cooldown if i know right

    • Hello, I understand, I'll try to change it

  • when play an tagilla he have only one attack on hammer u know how to fix it?

  • I have swag+donuts and when I add this mod it seems to mess up spawns, ill only get a handful if any bots when im in a raid

    • also after spawning in as a boss, I have no footsteps, and my reloads are super fast, is that normal?

    • sorry one more thing, when I spawn as a normal scav I keep that fast reload and no footsteps, also the game just freezes for a few seconds before I die

    • I concur, after installing new version my "Bot*" skill are set above zero, which results in faster reloads and silent footsteps.

    • let me know if you find a fix, I would LOVE to use this mod, but its impossible right now for me.

    • I updated the mod, reload speed and footsteps fixed, check i out.

  • @Toha3673 Thanks it seems fixed for now

    Thumbs Up 1
  • It's a miracle! Version 1.1.0 is working. Simply changed the config.json to all "100's" to guarantee a boss would spawn and it did. After the first raid, immediately could run a second raid, and it too spawned a different boss. Thanks @Toha3673 for addressing our issues and concerns and getting this working. Great job.


    PROOF:

    https://ibb.co/D14jpky

    Thinking 1
    • It wasn't intended that way, I'll see what's wrong and post an update later with new setting in config.

      EDIT: My scav timer does not reset after extraction, but I'm still checking..

    • @Toha3673, I may be INCORRECT about the Scav timer reset. It may have been from something else in my profile. I'm trying a "clean" profile now and will report. However, I'd still like to see a Scav Timer option added if possible. Saves having to use another mod for it.

    • @Toha3673, I was wrong, this mod does not appear to do anything with the Scav timer. However now I can not even get it to work. If you want to connect to my Discord and watch what I'm doing, please let me know. Be happy to help, and of course I'd love for this mod to work. I have no idea why it is not working. I have no other issues with any mods I use. Thanks


      EDIT: It did not work because I was using a new/clean profile to test, and it ONLY had a Fence rep of 0.20. Once I got it over 1.0, the Player Boss Scavs were chosen properly.

    • @Toha3673, Hello again. Okay I did a lot more testing and I have a pattern here. Did the testing with the config set to all (6) 100's and only "bosskilla" to ensure a boss scav would spawn. Upon first game start/load it selects Killa properly. If I then win, again it selects Killa. As long as I keep winning, it selects Killa. But as soon as I lose, it does not select Killa, and selects a random scav. Then as long as I keep losing, more random scavs. Not until I win as a random scav, will the mod spawn Killa again. So it appears that the mod is ONLY spawning the Boss if you win the current raid. Hope others also see this, and if so, it helps you troubleshoot. Thanks.


      Test Scenario: Fence Reputation above 0.99 (i.e. 3.0), and config.json set to (6) 100's and only "bosskilla"

      - MUST have a Fence reputation of 1.0 or above to be eligible for a Player Scav Boss to be chosen

      - Note: So new/clean profiles at rep 0.20 are not going to choose a Boss

      - *** Mod is ONLY (re)choosing a Boss if you win (successfully finish) the Player Scav raid

      - *** If the Player Scav dies, it will (re)chose a regular/random Scav and not a Boss

      - *** Restarting the game will force a reload of the Player Scav Boss (if Fence rep is 1.0 or above)


      AND REGARDING THIS:

      -

      Known conflicting mods:

      • Revingly NLE - Doesn't reroll scav when player dies in a scav run (you wont be able to play as boss)

      I ran this mod with Revingly's [Never Lose Equipments]. I did not see it cause any "additional" issues. The PMC succeeding or dying does not effect the state of the current/next Player Scav. The issue where when a Player Scav Boss dies and it removes the boss as the next playable character happens even with absolutely no other mods installed.

    • I use the hook “/client/game/profile/savage/regenerate” to let mod understand when it is necessary to regenerate the scav character , which for some reason is not called when I use the NLE mod, if I find another way to let the game understand when it is necessary to regenerate the scav, I will immediately update the mod.

  • Do not install this, it will brick your scav profile permanently if you get a scav boss once, even bricks it after removing the mod and the author doesnt seem to care / be active

    FIXED! Works fine now, Boss and guard runs work, even as Cultist

    • Fixed! Please download the new version and check that "reroll_on_game_start" is enabled, this will fix broken scav profile!

      Thumbs Up 1
    • @Toha3673, It is working now. Thanks so much for addressing our issues and concerns and getting this to work. Love the mod.

      Thumbs Up 1
    • Thank you!

  • please god fix the error im stuck with Killa even after removing the mod

  • Hi,

    • Nevermind, it took a few restarts, now everythings working. Thank you for the fast solution.

      Just downloaded the new version, unfortunately another error when extracting:
