**Lotus' first Quest should show up at Player Level 5** Don't forget to make backups of your profile when adding / removing / updating any mods. Also check out all the different info tabs and read the pinned comment if you wanna report any bugs or issues to me** **Please check the "Installation" tab to see how to install Lotus properly Tabs {.tabset} ============== Features -------- **Features** **"Lotus" currently features the following things :** \- 340+ Custom Quests \- 900+ Sold / Bartered Items, including a lot of Items that are not available on traders, good ammo and good armor plates \- A Custom Keycard that grants you infinite Labs access for free, unlocked by Quests \- A very cute face **You might not be able to finish all Quests in a single playthrough unless you use Profile Editor to unlock the failed Questlines** **This is not the final version of the mod, with all the updates I try my best to adjust Lotus to be up to date with new content, quests, balancing, etc.** **See "Planned Features" tab for future plans** Installation ( Please Read ) ---------------------------- **Installation** Step 1. - Download [Virtual's Custom Quest Loader](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/885-virtual-s-custom-quest-loader/?highlight=virtua#overview) - Download [Lotus](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1717-lotus/) Step 2. - Unzip the files ( *preferably with 7zip* ) - Drag the "BepInEx" and "user" folders from the Lotus and VCQL zip files directly into your SPT install ( *like most other mods* ) Step 3. - Start your game and have fun **You should use 7zip and should avoid using some form of mod-installer / mod-manager to prevent possible issues** Known Issues ------------ **Known Issues** **Conflicts with certain settings in [Server Value Modifier \[SVM\]](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/379-server-value-modifier-svm/?highlight=serv), those would be :** - Enabling "Remove Filters" for the following cases ( *Case Space Manager* ) \- WZ Wallet \- Wallet \- S I C C Case \- Documents Case \- Keycard Holder - Enabling "Remove key-card requirement to access laboratory" ( *Raid Settings* ) - Enabling "Unlock trader offers behind quests" ( *Traders* ) **Conflicts with Lotus' Weapon-Assembly Tasks :** - Enabling the Attachment changes in [SPT Realism Mod](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/606-spt-realism-mod/) will likely make all of Lotus' gunsmith tasks not work at all - [Kalashnikov Enhanced Modding](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1033-kalashnikov-enhanced-modding/) *might* make the AK-builds from the solutions not have the correct stats or work at all, the quests will likely still be possible to complete **Too many mods that add traders are installed and Lotus can't be accessed anymore :** - Solution A would be installing [Kaeno-TraderScrolling](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1508-kaeno-traderscrolling/?highlight=traders) - Solution B would be enabling the "Trading Intermediate Screen" in the default Tarkov ingame settings **BTR Driver having a messed up dialog screen :** - **Being able to start more than 1 BTR quest at a time mixes up all the dialog options, from my experience this shouldn't break anything, just ruins the immersion** **Modded Weapons / Gear not working for quests :** - Sadly how EFT quests work, modded items have different IDs and don't count towards these quests by default, I might make some sort of compatibility / config for that in the future but it would be a ton of work Future Plans ------------ **Future Plans** - Always expanding existing questlines - Fully rework all the questlocks - Fully rework the quest order and Lotus' progression in general - Making certain quests / questlines matter more for the story so they aren't just simple "sidequests" that unlock a few new items - Making more story-related questlines involving other traders - Involving all vanilla traders into the storyline ( *so far only ref and lightkeeper are left* ) - A custom model for Lotus' Keycard - Creating custom quest items that spawn in scripted locations Recommended Mods ---------------- **Recommended Mods** **All of these mods are pretty much fully compatible with Lotus from my experience** **Please make sure to read their respective modpages and check for dependencies, thank you** **A list of mods that are overall very good and pair very well with Lotus (** *in no particular order* **) :** -

[Kaeno-TraderScrolling](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1508-kaeno-traderscrolling/?highlight=trader) A must have when using multiple additional traders - [Skipper](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1861-skipper/?highlight=skipp) Incase something is wrong with a quest or you don't want to complete them - [MoreCheckmarks](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1159-morecheckmarks/?highlight=more) With the amount of quests that Lotus comes with, this is basically a must have - [Flea Limiter](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/2462-flea-limiter/?highlight=flea%20l) Since Lotus' is intended to be played without the flea market or a limited flea market, and is balanced around that, but with anything else here, the choice is up to you - [Ref - SPT Friendly Quests](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/2108-ref-spt-friendly-quests/?highlight=ref) for a better experience with the ref quests - [Bosses Have Lega Medals](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/2109-bosses-have-lega-medals/?highlight=bosses) Lotus also adds items to ref ( *since 1.6.0* ) this might help with obtaining some lega medals **Make sure mods that apply changes to custom quests load after [Virtual's Custom Quest Loader](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/885-virtual-s-custom-quest-loader/?highlight=quest%20l) and after certain Trader mods if you want to apply these changes to the traders themselves, I suggest using [LOE (Load Order Editor)](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1082-loe-load-order-editor/?highlight=load) to change your load order** Quest Guide ----------- **Quest Guide** **Lotus has a ton of quests and that means that I cant give a detailed guide for each of them, if you're struggling with finding certain places, I really recommend one of these mods ( *or both* ) :** **&gt;&gt; [Dynamic Maps](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/1981-dynamic-maps/?highlight=dynamic) &lt;&lt;** **&gt;&gt; [Game Panel HUD](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/652-game-panel-hud/?highlight=game) &lt;&lt;** **Lotus has some Quests that tell you to do something while wearing "specified Gear", what is this gear and how do I know what is required?** That is simple, I made sure to drop as much information as possible in the description, you will need to scroll down to see it for some Quests however. [](https://i.imgur.com/9hj53ni.png) The "specified Gear" for this Quest: [](https://i.imgur.com/mmqxrhl.png) The purpose of this is to give more information since some quests give you multiple options for gear, and to have a shorter objective length, so it does not look like this abomination ( Test Drive - Part 1 ) [](https://i.imgur.com/ex0sklN.png) **There are a lot of Quests where I need to find and handover items, how do I know what actually needs to be "found in raid"?** Very simple again, the objectives always tell you if something needs to be found in raid or not. If it only tells you to "Obtain xyz" and / or just "Hand over xyz" without mentioning anything about "in raid", it doesnt need to be FiR. [](https://i.imgur.com/Vd0X99C.png) If a quest needs items found in raid, it usually tells you that in the objective like "Find xyz in raid" and then "Hand over xyz" [](https://i.imgur.com/e9ABa8s.png) **There are a few questlines where you need to choose a specific trader for the questline that you want** The 2 big questlines that you can pick are for either Prapor or Peacekeeper / Skier. You can choose the questline you want after accepting the quest "***For The Motherland***" from Prapor, after accepting it you should get a quest from Peacekeeper called "***Keeping The Peace***". **&gt; Completing the quest from Peacekeeper will get you his questline with 16 Quests ( 13 from PK and 3 from Skier )** **&gt; Completing the quest from Prapor will get you his questline with 17 Quests** Then there are a few smaller quests, you will get a quest called "**New Dealer In Town**" from Lotus. Accepting it will give you a quest from Skier, completing the quest for their respective trader will give you another quest for the trader that you picked. The objectives of the quests that you will get after are identical, with the only difference being the rewards and the trader they are on. "I dont like the Trader Icon" ------------------------------- **Changing the trader image** Don't like the trader icon or the style? That's completely fine, you can change it to whatever you like by using certain mods. I use this mod for all the traders I have for example : &gt;&gt;&gt; **[MERKS TRADER IMAGE SWITCHER](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/files/file/2113-merks-trader-image-switcher/?highlight=trader%20image) &lt;&lt;&lt;** Lotus Assort ------------ **Lotus Assort ( *v.1.4.2* )** **Here are a few examples of what Lotus can sell ( *if all of the quests are completed* ) :**        **The images don't include every item that Lotus sells, also about half of the items in Lotus' assort are *locked* behind quests, some easier and some more difficult to help with balancing.** **Armored Vests / Rigs are sold *without* any plates, this is not a bug nor an issue - this is *intented* to let the user buy any armor and then seperately buy any plates of their choice, have fun!** Weapon Assembly Task Solutions ------------------------------ **Weapon Assembly Task Solutions** **The shown builds are for 3.11.x ( *Lotus version 1.6.0* ) , builds for 3.10.x can be found in the Lotus thread in the official SPT discord server :** **<https://discord.com/channels/875684761291599922/1234841569035812904/1370342379416064091>** **Important Note: The Insight WMX200 Tactical Flashlight is not actually considered a "standalone flashlight" but a tactical device, so it won't work for quests that require a normal flashlight, this is a Tarkov issue**                                      Incase the tasks don't work, make sure to check if you have any mod that impacts gunsmith quests and/or weapon stats {.endtabset} **Also huge thanks to [Virtual](https://hub.sp-tarkov.com/user/26520-virtual/) for his Custom Quest Loader**
