Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to eventual bans.
Due to public "outrage" (one singular individual told me so) i ve noticed that the presets are cheap and who even uses euros lol.
NEWSFLASH: There is a config file
for price adjustment and currency selection
You can add external json files now. You copy the desired userbuilds.weaponBuilds to an indepedent .json file and then put the file in the presets directory. The file should be like the following. You can have multiple files, but each file can have multiple presets.
If you dont want to have any additional presets just delete all the contents of the presets directory.
If the trader is empty: make sure your profile has any weapon presets or you have external files.
If it doesnt show latest changes of weapons you can click the refresh store button next to trader thumbnail.
Installation Guide as instructed to do so
If you have many traders and you need the trader scroller from KAENO
YOU ARE FREE TO COPY IT AND RE RELEASE IT AS YOU PLEASE WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME.

POSTING THIS AGAIN FOR VISIBILITY
Reis Jan 21st 2023
Great mod!
And if you are facing issue with HEPHAESTUS image in your game, just go to your mods folder:
\SPT-AKI\user\mods
And rename the folder:
Hephaestus.X.X.X
To:
Hephaestus
Hope it helps.
alexkarpen Author
You are correct i was in a haste and messed folder structure once again
Crackhead-Cody
is it possible to move presets from one profile to another?
Mod works great though, im just inept
alexkarpen Author
you transfer each {...weapon...} you want from within weaponBuilds:[] to the other profile.
Save the file, restart the game server or logout and login (to be sure) and voila!
agavalda
Hi there, when using your mod the weapons builds in the user profile json are modified with the new properties: "UnlimitedCount": true, "StackObjectsCount": 2000 and "preWeapon": true.
Is that intended behaviour?
I'm asking because someone complained that my mod doesn't work after using yours and saw that was the reason. Basically my mod allows to add weapons builds and it copies all its properties, including those news and then it breaks weapon if you try to use it.
I have 0 idea how the traders work but my guess is that you don't have to modify the profile items when adding a trader? again, i have no idea if what im saying is wrong, sorry if im wrong
alexkarpen Author
Great mod aga,
I will download yours and test it out to help.
I will have some time tomorrow
alexkarpen Author
new version Up aga.
check and report back if you find any issues!
big-fella
This is unfortunately breaking presets for agavalda's excellent give-ui mod, presets added via give-ui while Hephaestus is installed will cause errors that produce duplicating weapons that turn into receivers with no parts, just for anyone interested in both.
masterofnone
I keep getting the error "Unable to generate flea offers for trader sarge, no assort found" and the game infinitely loads.
alexkarpen Author
"Unable to generate flea offers for trader sarge, no assort found"
The secret ingredient in this sentence is the word "sarge"
masterofnone
Sorry, but I don't follow? That's where my question is because I'm not sure what this "trader sarge" is? I searched for it and couldn't find anything.

Do you have the folder "Hephaestus" in you user/mods directory?

Its all in euro's and editing of guns is complicated and half explained..
Great concept but im uninstalling, its useless in its current state..

Hello, a question, how do you change the prices in the hephaestus mod? Thanks in advance
alexkarpen Author
in config file lower the discount number
pacoz
alexkarpen Author
Primarily it sells only* your own presets that your profile has created.
But in addition you can add json presets.
"advertising" is a strong word
Anttares314
I wish hephaestus had an integration with Softcore Tarkov .
What I mean by this is that Hephaestus each refresh will check flea pick a random offer for each part of your preset pick a random part of the barter and use it as an asking price .
Example: this sig spear will cost you : 1ssd 2aa bat 6 tape 1 3m body armour
alexkarpen Author
it's interesting, but the whole purpose is to skip the procedure of buying the preset from flea market and assembling it.
Kudos for creativity and imagination though.
P.S. it is possible to create such method of pricing
Anttares314
Maybe I’ll give it a go
Anttares314
The thing about Spt sotcore is that it Changes the whole economy (flea included) to be mainly barter only and I thought it will be cool lore wise that Hephaestus scrounges the flea market arranges deals between AI offers to sell you the presets and making a profit
HeiZen
Best trader !

Has anyone had luck using this with 3.8.3?
FotisN
Will the mod work if i have flea market disabled or unavailable through SVM?
alexkarpen Author
Δεν ξέρω Φώτη, κατα πάσα πιθανότητα ναι. Αλλά μπορεί να σου σπάσει τις τιμές.
FotisN
Θα το δοκιμάσω τότε και βλέπουμε! Ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση και συγχαρητήρια για τo εξαιρετικό mod!
alexkarpen Author
Αν σου βγάλει κάποιο πρόβλημα πες μου να σε καθοδηγήσω.
FotisN
Ευχαριστώ πολύ. Σκοπεύω να ξεκινήσω νέο run και έχω καθορίσει μέσω Svm το flea market να δείχνει μόνο vanilla traders μέχρι να φτάσω lvl 70. Τα preset δηλαδή που θα αποθηκεύω θα περιέχουν προιόντα διαθέσιμα μόνο απο αυτούς.
Τουλάχιστον έτσι το φαντάζομαι πως θα λειτουργήσει θα δούμε στην πράξη.
Θα σου αφήσω feedback ακόμα και αν ολα πάνε καλά!
DizzilyHQ
Hi long time fan of this mod.
Would it be possible to make it that it always refreshes the trader when speaking to him?
we use it in the mpt and it somehow shows other ppls presets sometimes.
alexkarpen Author
I ve tried using the hook when opening trader but it looks like the game is caching it, or something else and it isn't accurate or "responsive" method. A good solution for mpt would be (and it is almost ready to use) to view the presets of every profile.
If you can get any assistance from discord, i am happy to implement it.
DizzilyHQ
hmm... but i want it the other way around so that it does NOT show others presets
alexkarpen Author
"other ppls presets sometimes" ~ you mean and other people presets not justother people presets without your?
i will try to find a way because with 3.9.0 some things are changing i i will figure it out.
DizzilyHQ
If i press refresh store, so i see my weaponpresets the next person who also presses that button sees then my weaponpresets and can also buy them.
that means he can buy out of my presets but it would be better if there is no chance to see others ppl presets.
alexkarpen Author
i know i didnt have multiplayer in mind. The trader assort table have something like cooldown i will figure out eventually.
Biboran
Does the mod not analyze prices at a flea market? A standard aksu costs 90k. If you set a discount, will it need to be constantly configured in the config as merchants unlock?
Frost428
Very good mod, but it would be awesome if we can load presets from external jsons outside the profiles. I've been making a couple "starter presets" for my different run-throughs and it would be awesome to have Hephaestus able to load them regardless of profile.
Ahtu
Great idea! This would also be a cool way to share presets and collectively build a custom Trader inventory.
alexkarpen Author
the code is ready, i am waiting 3.9 release to publish everything.
summjt
The presets I've made including silencers, scopes, other mods, only have a price of what the unmodded version of the gun would cost on the flea.
For example, a M700 with a silencer and scope totalling 150k roubles individually on the flea, is costing me 222E (35k roubles) in Heph's store..
How should I be troubleshooting this?
alexkarpen Author
check config file for default discount percentage.
summjt
yes, thankyou! Has just been what I've played around with for the past bit. Thankyou!
It might differ for others, but "65" as the discount percentage is what I've found to work for me!
IceM4gic
I noticed something extremely weird, 1.1.5 on 3.8.0. If the price for my preset is 522E, I click on Skier to buy more euros, then go back to Hephaestus, the price changes. The price for everything changes each time I click off of him and go back.
alexkarpen Author
Inflation, you are a part of it!
Prices are generated based on the "current" total market value. It doesnt make sense because eventually it doesnt work this way.
IceM4gic
I don't fully understand, how am I a part of it?
ObsidianLegion
This still working with 3.8.3?
alexkarpen Author
quick hint for almost* every server side mod. (the mods that you put in user folder not bepinex)
on minor releases x.x.version they break rarely.
*big mods that touch almost every aspect of the game are easier to break.
so yes.
TheOutsider
I'd love to have access to this mod, but somehow I can't find anyone experiencing this particular error.
Hopefully is fixable for me.
Mod is placed where it should be, and the file that is complaining about, is there as well.
This is the error:
Mod (Hephaestus1.1.5) is missing package.json. Make sure you have checked the mods hub page for install instructions
Thank you!
alexkarpen Author
it's not your fault 100%, but 99.99%
It's my fault because in the last release i ve messed the folder structure.
the mods should be like
https://i.imgur.com/MFzG4gT.png
rename Hephaestus1.1.5 to Hephaestus
TheOutsider
Oh yes! That did it.
It took me a while to see I had doubled ...user/mod...
Thank you for answering.
gFresh
please package the mod as user folder being the first folder [not Hephaestus1.1.5]
kwebber321
Im not sure why but for some reason randomly the trader will just have none of my presets. I have to go back and open a preset, save it, then all of them appear again.
3LVN
Is there a way to add bosses' weapons preset? Like Knight's Killtube Mdr etc.
Miseravel
Well, last version in, still having the trader empty sometimes
Way to circumvent this is to just save a new preset, then it updates the trader inventory

Hi there I keep getting this error in SPT client
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'D:\Games\Escape from Tarkov\user\mods\Hephaestus\res\Hephaestus.jpg
But more importantly sometimes it crashes after a match with this error

I get this too
Maverick//
I'm also having this problem, and it's not just this mod, other modes like Lotus are also occurring, I tried support with the creator of the Lotus mod, but he doesn't know how to solve this problem
corbz
Ahh okay, thanks for the feedback Maverick, looks like we will have to wait for someone to figure it out, I'm considering just removing the mod and just applying it after I really want a preset to buy.
alexkarpen Author
Hello boiz
- what is you sptaki version (bottom left corner of screen)
- tell me the items that path D:\Games\Escape from Tarkov\user\mods\Hephaestus\res\Hephaestus.jpg contains.
- For everyone that has issues with images, you can delete icon cache from => C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Temp\Battlestate Games\EscapeFromTarkov\Icon Cache\live
- for crash you propably use wrong sptaki version.
corbz
Thanks for your reply Alex
-The bottom left corner of the screen says: "0.14.12.29197 SPT-AKI 3.8.0 - 0c404c"
- D:\Games\Escape from Tarkov\user\mods\Hephaestus\res\Hephaestus.jpg contains 5 images:
heph.webp , Hephaestus.jpg , Hephaestus.png , HephaestusA.jpg , img1.jpg
deleting cache now gonna give it a try
and just found out that its not only your trader that crashes the game it seems any modded trader does it
Appreciate the help! Love this mod
frugyman
Even with the updated version, I still get the same bug that after 3 or 4 raids, I have to Re-open the game no matter what I tried to have my presets build back into hephaestus shop. Is it possible that it's any of the modded weapon mods that use that's causing an issue?
alexkarpen Author
The mod "listens" for the following hooks
/launcher/profile/login
/client/builds/weapon/save
/client/builds/delete
/client/trading/api/getTraderAssort/hephaestus_alxk
so if you see them in the console getting called but still not getting items there are many reasons.
Too many traders, problematic build....
if you have an error log please post it here.
