This is an universal installer for the trainer. In most cases you just need to run installer.exe from a command prompt.

1- It will discover EscapeFromTarkov installations.

• You can also pass a custom installation path on the command line: installer.exe "C:\Program Files\EFT" or copy the installer to the target directory.
• Depending on where the game is located, perhaps you will need to use a command prompt with admin privileges.
• You just need to re-run the Installer to update your trainer to the latest version. No need to re-download the Installer.

2- It will download the latest source code from this repository.

• Then will try to compile the trainer.
• If the latest version is not working with your installation, it will try to select a compatible (but older) version. You can also use the --branch command switch to provide a specific trainer version to compile against. See existing branches.
• Still not working? It will then try to disable faulting features.
• No need for SDKs, third party dependencies or Visual Studio, the Installer is self-contained.
• Before EscapeFromTarkov 0.13.0.21531, it should work for live (do not do that, you'll be detected & banned!).
• Given EscapeFromTarkov 0.13.0.21531 or later prevent this trainer to be loaded using NLog configuration. It is now mandatory to use SPT-AKI/BepInEx for recent versions.
• Important: if you are using SPT-AKI, please make sure you have run the game at least once before installing the trainer. SPT-AKI is patching binaries during the first run, and we need to compile against those patched binaries. If you install this trainer on stock binaries, the game will freeze at the startup screen.

3- It will copy all needed files for you.

• The freshly-compiled trainer bits will be copied to EscapeFromTarkov_Data\Managed\NLog.EFT.Trainer.dll.
• The outline shader will be copied to EscapeFromTarkov_Data\outline
• EscapeFromTarkov_Data\Managed\NLog.dll.nlog will be created or patched, depending on the content. (This is for legacy EscapeFromTarkov versions, before 0.13.0.21531).
• It will compile a SPT-AKI/BepInEx plugin named aki-efttrainer.dll in BepInEx\plugins

Troubleshooting:

• The game is stuck after installing the trainer : if you are using SPT-AKI, please make sure you have run the game at least once before installing the trainer. SPT-AKI is patching binaries during the first run, and we need to compile against those patched binaries. If you install this trainer on stock binaries, the game will freeze at the startup screen.
• The trainer is not loaded : are you sure you are running the proper EFT instance? you can double check with the file %LOCALAPPDATA%Low\Battlestate Games\EscapeFromTarkov\Player.log, search for an installation path (often along with Fallback handler could not load library errors). Perhaps you forgot to update your shortcuts to server.exe/launcher.exe files.
• The installer is unable to compile the trainer for an old EFT version : sorry I do not plan to support old versions, please upgrade.
• The installer is unable to compile the trainer for a new EFT version : please file an issue.

Usage examples:

• Installer --help to display general help.
• Installer install --help to display help for the install command.

• Installer -b dev-0.12.11.13771 to use a specific branch/version, this case 0.12.11.13771.
• Installer -f <feature> to disable a feature. Example: Installer -f ThermalVision -f NightVision. Use feature names found in the trainer.ini file.
• Installer -c <command> to disable a command. Example: Installer -c Spawn.
• Installer uninstall to remove the trainer.
