    • Control the weather type(s) that occur during each season.
  • Love this mod, its just turned Autum for me and its how Tarkov should of been from the start dreary and grey with some winter sun shine. Also works well with the film reshade ^^ :love:

  • hello wont work for me...it is always sunny whether i use this mod or not any help?

    • He'll have to update it. It's so far only compatible with 3.9.4 and earlier

  • I see you say you're updating it. Just wanted to say thanks for all the great mods you make! SPT isn't the same without some PreyToLive mods added

  • Doesn't work on linux at all. No settings changed, tried reinstalling

  • Hey! You probably heard about it but im also stuck in winter/autumn. The only setting I changed was "monthDurationInRaids": 4, Im on the latest spt version (3.9.5) and on your latest mod version. I have the same problem as campi6277. The season start at summer but after few raid it switch to winter and stay in winter. I have over 70 raid played and only the first 10 raid was in summer,


    The profile.json seem to be stuck at 1 february 2025

    • It would appear to be some sort of incompatibility with later SPT updates.

    • Yes it needs to be updated. Working on it atm.

  • im getting snow inside buildings like any building on reserve has snow falling inside and inside every building the ground is white with snow, its very strange

    • this just turns on/off the seasons and weather. nothing i can really do about BSGs bugged seasons and weather

  • I don't know why the weather is stuck always in autumn/early winter.

    Even if the console log shows it's loading summer weather (also in the profile.json is set to summer) raids are still set in autumn with bare trees (but outside the map they are green), a bit of snow here and there.

    This is the only weather mod I have. I can't figure out why my weather/season system is broken.

    • did you change any of the settings in the mod? what spt version are you using?

    • I think I fixed it by manually deleting the SPT cache and profile files, and also by editing the "profile.json" in this mod's folder setting "1", "July" and "summer" and empty fields in weather variables.

      Now it seems it works well, even if there is a difference between console logs and actual weather (sometimes it says "clear sky, no wind", but it's raining with medium strong wind)

  • Hi, I downloaded your mod, but the seasons don't change.

    Thinking 1
    • By default 10 raids equal to 1 month passed.


      You can change that inside the config file. The config file is here:

      ..\SPT\user\mods\PreyToLive-DynamicWeatherAndSeasons\config

      Thumbs Up 1
  • Does this get rid of the snow? Because at this point I'm so sick of it lol.

    • If you don't want snow then set the seasons to anything but winter.

  • Если кто то зашел сюда для того что бы поменять время года, не морочьте себе мозги с модами.
    В файле .....\SPT\SPT_Data\Server\configs\weather поменяйте диапазон месяцов для нужного вам сезона, что бы тот месяц который сейчас ИРЛ попадал на нужный вам сезон

  • Just curious, does the game have autumn now? I thought it was only winter, spring, and summer (vanilla)


    "january": "winter",

    "february": "winter",

    "march": "spring",

    "april": "spring",

    "may": "spring",

    "june": "summer",

    "july": "summer",

    "august": "summer",

    "september": "autumn",

    "october": "autumn",

    "november": "autumn",

    "december": "winter"

  • It doesn't seem to work for me, im not sure why but mine seems to be coded to look in the wrong directory for the profile json?


    Error in [DynamicWeatherAndSeasons] /client/items: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'user/mods/db/profile.json'


    If i copy the db folder out and into the user/mods folder as noted above, the error goes away but it also doesnt seem to work properly.

    • Are you running your server on linux? I have the same issue and have a feeling that it might have something to do with the linux paths but couldn't find a way to fix it :/

    • yup. Im trying a different seasons mod now though will see how it goes.

  • How does it work which key opens the menu?

  • Very nice :D for me 2-3raids for 1months seems a good balance.

    would it be possible to integrade the seasonal events like the gifter?

    ///

    -how does the events actually work in vanilla spt? with my local-pc-dates?

  • how does winter work? Is it like normal? Does anything important happen?

  • Is the winter custom made? It doesn't look like the "vanilla" winter. Land isn't quite cowered in snow, no snow crunch and it also snows inside buildings

  • Is there any chance to sync the weather with my friends so we have the same weather? atm we have different seasons every raid when set on random

    :P
    otherwise insane mod i really love it 10/10

  • Hi, wanted to check with you if the mod core code works like this so you can mark it as compatible with SAIN ?1a4247f45a.png

  • Do you have a winter map? For example, snow

  • You make some banger mods, was waiting for someone to allow something like this, awesome!


    Thanks :)

  • Can you share a code that makes it always cloudy or rainy?

  • Using Fika each player gets different weather when using randomMonthEachRaid : true,. Kind of weird

  • Does this record where I am in the cycle when I close the server or it resets every time the server is restarted?

  • Does this work with 3.8.3?

    • No 3.8.3 mods work with 3.9.0 and vise versa

  • Legend

  • Anyone know if this is Fika compatible? if so does it count everyone's raids individually or cumulatively ?

    • Since it is server side(user folder) it should. If you want specific weather you can use sheepys simple season selector. We have it on our Fika server. Just a FYI if you are using a lot of mods like us it will take a huge performance hit during snowstorms. I am using SAIN and all the dependencies/Looting bots/ Donuts+SWAG/ Fika and sheepys Simple weather. WIht 4 people you will get some stuttering. I am on a 13th gen intel/ 64GB ram 3080ti and mods installed on an M.2 and it freezes during snow. I will try this one out today.

    • Works with FIKA confirmed

      Heart 1
  • Oh, this seems good.

  • Woa !! Thank you so much

  • Nice mod, but the randomized seasons feature is much needed :3

  • Please consider adding a random season option, thanks!
