    How do i keep my info when I update. I updated to 2.56 today from 2.30. It is making me start over, not where i left off.

    Well the versions I think you're referring to are just the installer and not SPT itself, however I'm guessing you mean you updated SPT from the older version of Tarkov to the newest one. Generally all you'd have to do is copy your profile from the old SPT folder to the new one, however I think this update can't "carry over" old profiles simply because so much changed. I could be wrong, maybe there's a way to do it, but as far as I'm aware if you wanna play on the newest version you basically have to go through the Wipe and start over.

    Apologies for the late response, just got off work.

    Looking at my files I can see I made a mistake in my initial report and actually gave the version for the launcher, not the game itself. The version of EFT I have is 0.13.5.26535. I can confirm that.

    I can also confirm I have the CSharp file you mentioned in that exact same file path.

    I will now try downloading the Zip you linked and will update afterwards.

    EDIT: After installing the files in the link provided and overwriting my SPT folder, the game is now working! Thank you so much for your help. I suppose I know now that if the game doesn't work after using the auto-installer that I should try to manually install the files and see if that fixes the issue.

    Thank you again!

    It looks like you're still using `TheEyeOfAres-ClearThermals`, try replacing it with a mod made for 3.7.1, e.g. Clear Thermal Sights

    That's actually the exact same mod. EyeofAres-ClearThermals IS Clear Thermal Sights. (At least, that's what prints out in the server AKI: "Mod: ClearThermals version: 4.0.0 by: TheEyeOfAres loaded" is what it says)

    Regardless, I have tried re-downloading that mod (using your link) AND just removing the mod entirely. I still have an infinite loading screen.

    I've been struggling to get SPT to work with the newest version. I heard SPT got updated and I wanted to get back into it, but I can't get the thing to load.

    It's just as the title says. I load up the game, the server AKI says everything works and "Happy Playing!", the game boots up and then I get stuck on the loading screen for eternity.

    Yes, I have read the FAQ. The 4 points the FAQ addresses:

    1. Your client version is wrong - I have the newest version of SPT, as well as the latest update of EFT as of 10/15/2023, as well as the newest versions of the few mods I have. I did also have a mod called "LOCK-PICKING ATTORNEY (TRADER)" just to be able to grab the quest keys cheaply but I have deleted it during my hours of troubleshooting this issue. I have been told it should still work, but given that the mod isn't tagged as being compatible with the newest SPT version I will assume that is not true.


    2. You're missing one of the prerequisite .NET runtimes - either .NET Framework 4.7.2 or .NET 6 - Both items are marked as being installed during the fresh install of SPT. Nevertheless, I have tried reinstalling both .NET items and doing ANOTHER fresh install of SPT and still no results.


    3. Your antivirus is blocking one of the client .DLL plugins - Never had this issue before, but still I went into Malwarebytes and insured it allows/does not mark my SPT install as a "threat". Windows Defender does not mark SPT as a problem, but I have done the same there. Still no fix.


    4. Your game files are corrupt (most likely cause of Specified cast is not valid error) - I would assume having fresh installs of both SPT and EFT would mean this isn't the case, although for all I know my luck is so crap that something is breaking right after being installed. So this one could be true, but everything is freshly installed so I don't think this is the issue.

    All 4 points of the FAQ are addressed and I am still having this issue. I have also tried removing all mods, including the Server Value Modifier, to run a purely vanilla SPT. It still gets stuck on an infinite loading screen.

    Any help with this issue is greatly appreciated.

    EDIT: It just occurred to me that the "Where did you download your game from?" question was referring to SPT and not Escape from Tarkov itself. I downloaded the auto-installer from the SPT-AKI website and used that to install SPT. Apologies if I misunderstood what that question was asking.

    Hello, apologies for the potential stupid question. I've tried to fix this on my own following the instructions as closely as possible and yet knowing me there's still a big possibility I'm just being dumb here.

    I just updated SPT to the newest version, as well as making sure Tarkov itself has been updated. After making sure my mods are up to date, to which I only use 4 counting this one, I received the following error in the Server AKI:


    TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'min')

    TypeError: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'min')

    At first I thought the issue to be my preset, maybe I broke something while updating everything. So I took pictures of the setting values and remade my entire preset from scratch. The issue was still present.


    I figured I'd try the pre-made presets that come with the mod to see if the issue is still present and that's where I found something odd. The same error prints out when I load GhostFennixx's preset and FireHawk's preset...but NOT Oraceon's preset. Loading that preset, or just using the SVM Default, results in the game booting up as normal.


    The only other mods I use are Clear Thermals, Lock Picking Attorney vendor, and Amanda's Graphics (which is installed properly in the main folder and not the mod folder as that mod instructs).


    My conclusion is that I'm simply messing something up, or some setting(s) that was in my preset and is also in GhostFennixx's and FireHawk's presets are no longer acceptable in the newest version of SPT as Oraceon's preset still works. But for the life of me I can't figure out what's causing the other presets to break even after fiddling with the settings seeing if I can find the one that's causing the issue.


    Again, apologies if this is something that is the result of me just being dumb.


    EDIT: Well I'm sorry to say that I was mistaken, Oraceon's preset doesn't seem to work either. The first two presets cause the before mentioned error preventing the game from even starting, but as Oraceon's didn't give any errors I just assumed it worked. I just attempted to load up SPT using Oraceon's and while the game does launch, it gets stuck in an infinite loading screen before I even get to the main menu.

    Also I apologize, I just noticed this area for a support thread. I initially posted this in the comment section, moving this over here now.
