Okay. Well it works for me.

This error has nothing to do with another mod. CustomRaidTimes is attempting to validate the structure of the config.json5 file and it's failing. According to the error message, it can't find the "general" property. I'd advise you to delete the mod, re-download a fresh copy, and carefully modify the condig without removing or commenting out any of the necessary structure.

i figured out why, the Arm band mod stated above also has a json5 folder titled the exact same way, they overwrite each other when i save one of them.

incase anyone else runs into this issue, simply redownload the mod or find the original json5 file and copy/paste the code into the overwritten folder, then press "save" instead of "save as" as this will Not overwrite all of them.

Thanks for your fast response's Refringe, i wouldn't have been able to trouble shoot these issues without your wisdom.

It can’t find the configuration file. You probably saved it with a different name or a different extension. Make sure it has the .json5 extension.

it says "config.json5", this is the folder order: SPT -> user -> mods -> refringe-customraidtimes -> config -> config.json5

all ive done is edit the raid times to 120 min, and pasted it all into my SPT folder

still not working.

See issue here:

Looks like the fix worked, thanks for the tip about note pad, seemed that was the issue here : )

What SPT version are you running?

My pleasure. Let me know if you run into any issues ♥️

Patience is a virtue

we are waiting here

Definitely need this mod of yours, mate.

I couldn't wait for the mod and I modded the game's files myself, the duration of the maps is now 2 hours

Should be fine with Realism. Install it and change the raid times to something large so it's never an issue, like 300 (5 hours). Let me know if you run into any trouble.

Thank you, I genuinely appreciate it!

This typically happens when it's installed incorrectly. Make sure the pathing resembles this:

INSTALL-DIR\user\mods\refringe-customraidtimes-1.5.0\package.json

Are you using any other mods that adjust raid times? Late To The Party, for example…

Dawg I am retarded ignore my comment. I do not have any other raid time mods however I had a setting in the config turned on overrideAll: true, which I didn't realize caused randomized Raid Times. It's a great mod and works perfectly fine!

Same here, thank god i found your comment xD

It's just a warning to let you know that this mod has detected that you also have SWAG installed, and has automatically disabled the bot spawn settings in this mod. It can be overwritten in the configuration if you want to keep it enabled anyways. It's done by default at the moment because I haven't had time to test this mod with SWAG, but you're free to try and let me know if you run into any issues.

Can you please create an issue here?

Be sure to post your log files.

This mod will extend the waves, but the bots are still limited to the max bots setting. If the bot cap has been hit, no more bots will spawn until one dies and there’s room. Enable debug mode in the settings to see exactly how many waves are being generated and raise the max bots to a higher number.

It worked. I renamed json5 - json

Yup, that'll do it! 🤓

Unfortunately not. It’s strictly a server mod. Updates have to be applied to the config and then the server must be restarted for them to take effect. Thanks for the kind words! Glad you like it.

This mod doesn't touch airdrops.

Interesting 🤔

Can you create a PasteBin of your entire server console (with debug enabled) in the support forum?

Hope this is all u need i will give another one after a raid. if there was anything else tho the after raid file doesn't seem to have anything

Can you please use:

https://pastebin.com

Thank you!

Why not the other log file ?

I just couldn't open it on mobile. If you use Pastebin I can view it online without having to download a local copy.

I don't see any of my mod's debug lines in that log file. Did you ensure that the mod debug setting is set to true?

Can you please share a PasteBin of your config.json5 file so I can see?

I think it should be said that i have absolutely no fucking clue what im doing. My main goal here is to make the raid timer so incredibly long that getting an MIA is no longer an issue. it is the most annoying and unnecessary "feature" in tarkov, and i want it gone. I even went down to look at other comments to try and see if anyone else has my problem, and all i found was this post that you made in reply to someone: "simply change the config/config.json file to meet your needs. For 4 hour raids change master_time_override to true and change the master_time_minutes value to this:"But i have no idea what any of this means nor where to access it in the config. I dont see anything anywhere about a master time override. I'm using Notepad to change the values.

Right, so working from the original config.json5 file, you’re going to change overrideAll to true, and change override to this:

        override: [
            { minutes: 120, weight: 1 },
        ],

This will override all map raid times to 120 minutes.

You can change debug to true to verify that the change is being made when you start the server.

I'm just stuck dude. i dont know where to put any of that. i've verified that debug is true and that overrideall is true, but it just wont change the timer when i paste that under override.

Yes, here’s the full example:

https://gist.github.com/refrin…932bcc1d640c4e24b87ddc7cf

Change 120 to however many minutes you want your raid times to be.

It's a way to "weight" the randomness of the time selection.

override: [
    { minutes: 60, weight: 10 },
    { minutes: 20, weight: 1 },
],

In the above example, the 60 minute raid time will be chosen 10 times more than the 20 minute raid, because it's 10 times the weight. It's the same as having this:

override: [
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 60, weight: 1 },
    { minutes: 20, weight: 1 },
],

You can also use these options for individual maps:

customTimes: {
    customs: [
        { minutes: 60, weight: 10 },
        { minutes: 20, weight: 1 },
    ],
    [...other maps...]
}

Also, for a little more spice, you can randomize the values. For example, this option is a raid time anywhere between 20-50 minutes, with a weight of 2-5 times.

{ minutes: { min: 20, max: 50 }, weight: { min: 2, max: 5 } },

Hope this helps!

Fixed the link. Thanks for letting me know!

You are always welcome and thank you for your reply.

If you turn debug to true it will show you the train schedule times. It’s still possible that for a 10h raid the train arrival time is later than 6h. That’s an incredibly long raid time!

I’ll look into setting a static arrival time for the next version.

@S_gamez: With the latest v1.4.0 release there is an option to set a static train schedule. Please read the comments in the config file carefully.

Thanks for the update sadly i can't use it yet as i have been playing on 3.5.8 for last part of the updates and i don't see point in updating to 3.6.1 as most of the mods i use is broken as of 3.6.0 so I'll wait to see if they will update on 3.7.x

I would try to run the latest version of the mod. It should work fine with v3.5.8, but I haven’t tested it. Just back up the old mod folder to your desktop in case it doesn’t work.

it did ro my surprise so happy and I jumped in game to test the train love it so far Thanks again.
