  • and another "stuck loading" thread

    Hai.
    I've tried this previously with a friends copy of the game, with no success.
    It's no different with my own client.
    What I've done is:
    Checked if I have all necessary software installed for the server.exe and other files of the mod to run and install with no errors, .Net 5.0 Runtime, several versions of Visual C++ Visual Studio including the 2013 release and more up to date ones. Wiped the documents folder of any temporary cache files of my live client which might fuck with the modded version, reboot the PC after installing the downgrade patch to have a compatible version of EFT for SPT-AKI 1.5.1 in the first place, run all .exes including the patcher.exe installer from AKI Patcher as admin. I also disabled my Antivirus just to be sure it wasn't touching anything.
    The first time the game booted up, it froze and didn't even fully transition to the main menu preloading screen.
    After killing the game with task manager and booting it again with the SPT-Aki launcher, it got to the main menu preload screen but would stay like that for several minutes, with no activity shown from the client in task manager. At first it would stay at 1560MB Ram usage, which eventually increased to around 1900MB with nothing in terms of playability happening ingame.
    I've left the game running for a bit as well to see if it maybe just took longer to load in, as it usually does this on vanilla fairly quick.
    I am fairly certain I've done everything right as stated in the guides and FAQ, unless I am not supposed to downgrade my game with AKI Patcher?
    Or what do or not do? :S

  • another infinite loading screen on game boot thread

    Hai
    so I wanted to dip into this singleplayer mod of tarkov today, since the concept of it sounds amazing.
    However I found this mod after previously updating my game so I couldn't install it yet as the latest version is not supported yet.
    Having asked a friend for his dated (v0.12.11.1.13487) client files and installing those on a seperate harddrive from my original live client, applying the 0.12.11.1.13487 -> 0.12.10.2.12893 patcher, and then installing AKI 1.5.1 as well as making sure all other required things such as the .NET 5.0 Runtime and Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013 or newer as well as Latest DX End-User runtime, I booted the server from the modded installation without errors, opened the aki launcher and made an account for EOD and loading in successfully into the game it wouldn't move on further than the main menu preloading screen:

    Task Manager wouldn't show any further activity from the client which could indicate a memory leak or something, with the game exe taking up just about 1,5gigs of ram up to 1,9 after a couple minutes of waiting.
    What do? :/

    Edit: A downgrade patcher for my actual current live client released, so I'll give that a shot and see if this works with the stable build of SPT-Aki.
    Gonna close this topic if it does, gonna leave it open if the problem still persists in that installation too
