Install, step by step

Before you start

  • Your own Tarkov Any edition, installed with the Battlestate Games launcher and fully updated.
  • About 100 GB free The installer copies the game (about 81 GB) and needs room to patch it.
  • About an hour Windows 10 or 11. Most of it is copying and patching, so you can walk away.

SP Tushonka is free: if anyone asks you to pay for it, it’s a scam. It runs on its own copy of the game, so your normal Tarkov and account aren’t touched.

  1. Update Tarkov, then close its launcher

    Open the Battlestate Games launcher and let it finish any update. Then close it completely: right-click its icon by the clock and choose Exit. The installer won’t start while it’s open.

  2. Install SP Tushonka 4.1.6

    1. Download the installer from the SP Tushonka installer page and run it.
    2. Pick a new, empty folder, like C:\Games\SPT. Not your Desktop, Downloads, OneDrive or Program Files: the installer refuses those.
    3. Choose version 4.1.6 and press Install.
    4. If a check shows in red, read it. Usually it’s not enough free space (pick another drive), the launcher still being open, or a missing .NET runtime (it gives you the link).
    5. Wait for “Install Complete”, then close the installer.

  3. Add our mod pack

    1. Download the mod pack (126 MB).
    2. Extract everything in it into your SP Tushonka folder, the one with EscapeFromTarkov.exe. In Windows: right-click the zip, Extract All, pick that folder.
    3. If Windows asks about merging folders or replacing files, say yes to all.
    4. To check: there’s now a Fika folder in BepInEx\plugins.

  4. Point the launcher at our server

    1. Open SPT.Launcher (there’s a shortcut in your SP Tushonka folder). You don’t need to start SPT.Server: you’re playing on ours.
    2. Open Settings (the gear) and set the server URL to https://us1.logicalgamer.com:6969
    3. Go back, choose Register and make an account. Your profile name is what other players see.
    4. Press Start Game.

  5. First start

    The first start takes a while: before the game opens, the launcher downloads about 14 GB of custom weapons, gear and traders from our server. Only once: after that it fetches just what changed.

    If a Logicalgamer Sync window then says there are updates, let it download them (about 9 GB the first time: the new maps and gun skins) and restart the game when it asks. That’s our server making sure your mods match its own, and from now on it does that by itself.

  6. Raid together

    1. Pick a map and go through the raid settings as normal.
    2. On the Fika screen, tick Use Headless Host and host the raid. Our headless client runs the bots, so your PC doesn’t have to.
    3. Friends pick your raid from the same list and press Join.

If something goes wrong

The launcher can’t connect to the server

Check the URL starts with https:// and ends with :6969, with no space at the end. See if the server is online on its card. If Windows asked about the firewall when you started the launcher, allow it.

Fika says I’m missing mods, or they don’t match

Extract the mod pack again into the right folder, then start the game and let NarcoNet finish its update. Don’t add other mods to this install: anything the server doesn’t have stops you joining.

The game crashes right after the launcher starts it

Usually your antivirus. Bitdefender is a known one: it crashes SP Tushonka before any mod loads. In Bitdefender, open Protection, Antivirus, Manage exceptions and add your SP Tushonka folder (for example C:\Games\SPT\), ticked for everything, Advanced Threat Defense included. Other antivirus apps: add the same folder as an exception.

The game closes or freezes while loading

The first load builds a cache and can take several minutes. If it really stops, your antivirus may have removed a mod file: add your SP Tushonka folder as an exception, then extract the pack again.

The installer says my game version isn’t supported

Battlestate probably released an update SP Tushonka hasn’t caught up with yet. Give it a few days and try again. Once installed, updates to your normal Tarkov don’t affect your SP Tushonka copy.

My question isn’t here

Ask us in TeamSpeak or on Fluxer, or through the contact form.

What changed

The server’s change notes, newest first. In the game, the main menu’s Patch notes button shows the same.

  • Nov 3
    • Keep Me Alive replaces Fika’s revive: a lethal hit puts you down instead of killing you. Crawl, hold F to self-revive, or a teammate drags you, stims you or uses a defibrillator (Therapist sells them at level 2)
    • Bots ignore downed players. 3 minutes to bleed out, Backspace to give up. 5 lives per raid: a self-revive costs 3, a teammate’s stim 2, a defib 1. Headshots still kill
    • Surgery that behaves (Kirisame Med Timing): one surgical kit fixes every black limb in one go, one charge per limb, and med animations end when the treatment does. Healing speed, movement and drug durations stay vanilla
  • Nov 3
    • A quieter main menu: the Logicalgamer strip is one slim row in the game’s own style, and server notices have their own line at the bottom (F12 to move or hide it)
    • On the strip: Patch notes (the server’s change notes, any time), Suggest a mod (the contact form with your name filled in), your ping, and how many of our hosts are free
  • Nov 2
    • Two new traders: Badger (Epic’s All in One: 500+ weapon parts, scopes and red dots, with his own quests) and the Croupier (random loadout boxes by in-game mail)
    • Your first start after Nov 2 downloads about 1.5 GB of new bundles: give it a minute
    • The Croupier also buys found-in-raid loot at 80% of the live flea price once you’re level 15
    • Ref’s Arena quests work in normal raids, with lower kill counts and Lega Medals as rewards
    • Healing: one medkit use heals every limb in turn, and the animation stops once you’re healed
    • 27 Logicalgamer gun camos, topographic designs and our logo included
    • The mod sync shows a What’s new note after an update, and an update no longer ends in a dark screen
    • The 1.0 Interchange is back as a per-raid choice (a test build: bots don’t move much there)
    • Behind the scenes: the mod sync’s file checks are much faster, and the server was tightened up
Earlier changes (2)
  • Oct 31
    • Over 660 gun camos and stickers: our own Logicalgamer ones, Antman’s COD pack, Topo, the Essential Texture Pack and Utanu’s 515 camos

    • ORBIT updated: better bot camps and extraction fixes

    • Use Headless Host is ticked for you whenever a host is free
    • Shared XP for group kills and boss kills, and teammates’ kills can count toward your kill quests
    • Flea prices now follow live Tarkov’s PvE market, and quests show the keys they need, what they unlock and if they count for Kappa or Lightkeeper
    • Fixed: Use Headless Host, shared XP and the quest kill setting now really switch on (start the game twice to pick up the fix)
    • The mod sync windows have a new look with our logo, and a sync error now shows a clear message instead of a dark screen
