Guide: How to Port Your SPT Profile to Fika or SIT Coop Modes

Guide: How to Port Your SPT Profile to Fika or SIT Coop Modes
I found this
Since I've seen a lot of people playing SPT, and considering to play Fika Project or SIT (Stay in Tarkov) with their friends, I'd like to let you know that you can use your profiles from any of them for other ones without any issues even a heavily modded SPT profile.

You can port all your quests, hideout levels, skills, Scav profile and all the items in your stash. It'll be basically identical to your SPT profile right out of the gate.

Recommended applications to make things easier while editing profiles: Notepad++ and 7zip. Just google and download both applications that are compatible with your OS.

This guide is from server host's point of view, but I'll point some important stuff for client side as well. I have SIT and Fika servers installed on my computer. All profiles are stored in host's computer, so server host needs others' SPT profile files as well.

Without further ado, let's get started:

Make sure you and your friend(s) create a profile (choose the same edition with SPT and same nickname) in Fika or SIT and open the game once, play a quick Factory raid with your friend(s), then close the game. This is to make sure you're able to play coop without any issues before moving forward.

Go to (Fika) MPTarkov\user\profiles or (SIT) Server\user\profiles and make a backup of all the ".json" files somewhere else. These are the files we're going to edit. There should be at least 2 files here (yours and your friends).

Go to SPT AKI\user\profiles folder. You'll see a file similar to this "6618032800060.json". This is your current SPT profile. All the information about your profile is stored here. Your level, skills, current stash, quests, even insurances. Open this file with Note++. Then go to your (Fika) MPTarkov\user\profiles or (SIT) Server\user\profiles and then open the json files and find the one that has your nickname on the line "username" at the beginning. When you find the file that is your profile's, close the other one not to mix them.

When both json files are open, you'll see something similar to this at the top:

"info": {

	"id": "65f445fd0004fa31adb",

	"scavId": "65f445fd000161f5c7",

	"aid": 1132244,

	"username": "nickname",

	"password": "xxxx",

	"wipe": false,

	"edition": "Edge Of Darkness"
Fika users will not have any value in the password section, but SIT users will most likely.

5. The json file from your SPT profile folder, go to 11th line that has ` "characters": { `. Go to the very beginning of that line to the left side with mouse cursor and click there. And press "Ctrl+Shift+End". Copy all the selected text and paste it to the same 11th line's beginning of Fika or SIT profile json file.

6. After this, copy your ID section's number at the beginning line in the quotes "65445fd...." (don't copy the quotes) from your SPT json file. Then go to your Fika or SIT's json file and press "Ctrl+F". Click on the Replace section in the opened window. Paste your copied ID from SPT json to "Find what" section, and then open and copy your Fika or SIT's ID section from the json file and paste it to "Replace with" section. "Click Replace All".

7. For Scav ID, you can do the same replacement as well with the same method used above.

8. Ask for your friend's SPT profile json file, and open it. Find the Fika or SIT profile json files of your friends, and do the exact same for them as well. That's basically it.

9. Open your game and happy playing!

How to import SPT In Game settings to Fika or SIT:

Go to SPT AKI\user\sptsettings folder and copy all the files (Control.ini, Game.ini etc.) to your: SIT Game\user\sptSettings folder or MPTarkov\user\sptsettings and overwrite all files.

Profit.

BASIC MODDING GUIDE for Fika and SIT:

The only drawback would be that you have a mod installed in SPT that is not supported by Fika or SIT.

There are only several mods that are not supported or have issues with Fika so far, and most common mods are supported by SIT as well (most server mods work with SIT but you need to download ported versions of client mods from discord), so I think as long as you're using the most common mods, you'll be most probably good to go.

Just to give you an idea, the current mods that I've been using without any issues with Fika and SIT are here:

"ServerValueModifier",

"TheBlacklist",

"AmmoStats",

"Remove Time Gate from Quests",

"MoreCheckmarks",

"SAIN",

"SWAG",

"AlgorithmicLevelProgression"

Please read about how to mod Fika and SIT in their discord before installing mods. Server and clients need to have the exact same mods configuration. I'll give you a quick explanation though:

- Important: If you used a mod like Server Value Modifier and made some important changes (container size change, deleting hideout requirements etc.), please copy that mod to your Fika or SIT from SPT's SPT AKI\user\mods folder. Otherwise, your ported profiles might not work. You can directly copy your BepInEx folder to Fika if your mod is not one of the incompatible mods.

- Fika Modding: Server host needs to install a mod completely (both user and BepInEx folders). Just drop both folders to MPTarkov main folder (where EscapeFromTarkov.exe is located). For clients, after host is done installing all the mods, hosts need to zip with 7Zip application their BepInEx folder and send it to all clients. They need to extract it to main MPTarkov folder.

- SIT Modding: Server hosts need to install a mod completely (both user and BepInEx folders) as well. You can use a mod's "user" folder from SPT hub, but for client mods that have BepInEx folder, you need to use the ported versions that are in the discord server. For hosts, drop the user folder to Server folder of SIT, and drop the ported BepInEx folder under Game folder. For clients, after host is done installing all the mods, hosts needs to zip their BepInEx folder and send it to clients. They need to extract it to Game folder (where Escapefromtarkov.exe is located).

If you have any issues, please do not hesitate to ask.
