We have started the installation of patch 0.12.11.7. In this patch we have upgraded the game engine from Unity 2018 to Unity 2019.
Upgrading the game engine to a newer version is a complex technical process that may affect all game systems and mechanics, as well as graphics and service modules.
The size of the patch is 7 GB. The reason for this is that during the transition to the new engine version, we have optimized the structure of storing the game data.
This patch doesn’t contain new mechanics, content, or visual changes. However, the transition to a newer version of Unity will allow us to use new graphics, gameplay, and network technologies in the future and will also facilitate further optimization of the game client and speed up the development of Escape from Tarkov. @news

PSA, if your download speeds are slow af (mine was 160kb/s down), run the launcher in Admin mode. Mine wanted to update itself again, but after that I'm getting my normal again (13MB/s).
Edit: Credit to
for posting this first, I'm just re-posting his comment essentially.ID: hk1ur5xID: hk1ycs0he is the chosen one!
ID: hk2jk0jmy launcher almost looks like it's capped at 1mb/s when my normal speeds are 10mb/s and running as admin didnt seem to fix it wtf is going on lmao
ID: hk2lkawPersonally I waited, speeds went to normal in about 5-10 mins
-
So hyped! Great job guys, refactoring FTW. Congrats! I hope you'll be celebrating!

Has downloading the update been throttled? I have 180Mb down but I'm getting the patch at ~500KB/s, nothing else is downloading and no one else is even connected to the router. Checked other downloads and they're at the expected speeds
ID: hk1o0sbI'm getting around 300 KB/sec and I have fiber with 600 mb download and 400 upload...
ID: hk1o399If it stays at that low of a speed, exit the launcher (do NOT pause or stop the download, just close the launcher) and reopen it. That kickstarts the download back to normal speeds for me when the numbers start dropping, ymmv
ID: hk1n2e824 mb/s down for me
ID: hk1nuiwlucky man i only get 700kb with the wind in my back
ID: hk1n2fdAlso curious about the source of this update text, not able to find it anywhere!
ID: hk1o5y0It is from the official Tarkov discord.
ID: hk35myeRun launcher in admin mode
ID: hk1qn5zNot for me personally
ID: hk3s4uzThey updated the engine not the servers lol
-
Really hyped for more optimization! A smooth game makes all the difference in the world to my sanity.
-
Does this mean there should be performance upgrades next time we play or no
ID: hk1kz0pLikely not, upgrading the engine just means they have the tools to optimize much better, much faster it's not just gonna be an instant upgrade
ID: hk1q4p8It might have a better memory management, if it works like JRE.
ID: hk23l9bMy fps drops have disappeared, average fps hasn't gone higher but 1% lows fluctuate a lot less. However I'm not sure if I'm seeing this because there are less players in the server atm due to patch drop.
-
I’m super hyped about the upcoming benefits with this. They mentioned working on a huge anti cheat upgrade with unity 2019. Would love to see the cheater count be early wipe as low as late wipe ( like right now )
ID: hk1ncbjWhere/When did they mention that Unity 2019 would include anti-cheat upgrades? I heard about them adding new BE modules eventually, was that related to U2019?
ID: hk1o1o6I don't know the answer but maybe it has something to do with data storage as mentioned in the notes? If loot data is server stored an esp would not work I assume.

Why not Unity 2020 or 2021?
ID: hk20m6gNikita said several podcasts ago going to 2019 is the better option because it allows them to move to the most tried-and-true version of the engine with minimal bugs and future development needed - doesn’t want to be running a buggier or unpatched version of a brand new engine. This is also the minimum for DLSS.
ID: hk2ise2so fucking hyped for dlss. I want more than 90 -110 fps on shoreline
ID: hk20rd4Unity dev here, as a long term videogame studio, you aren't going to want to use anything past the LTS (long-term support) versions of Unity for your large scale game. Too risky and experimental. LTS versions thusfar make it to a later 2020 version of Unity but no 2021 version is out yet.
There is also a level of refactoring required to get the game up-and-going on a new version of Unity as well, so migrating to 2020 may also bring too much work needed when switching to Unity 2019 will bring many of the optimization tools they need.
Hope this explanation was half decent :>
ID: hk2fzt7More than half decent. Looks like Unity 2019's security support won't last too long, though.
ID: hk1zu6p2042?

Upgrading software library always makes the developers happier and thats the most important thing.
-
They finally fixed download speeds for patches, just downloaded patch with 95MB/S, usually I had 13MB/S max, sometimes trash like 2MB/S.
ID: hk1w63mI don't know if it works personally but if you run the BSG launcher in Admin mode it should fix that problem.
-
So UNITY DOTS in Tarkov?
-
Nutable.
-
Can’t wait to try it out! I’m sure you guys have been putting tons of hours migrating to Unity 2019. Congrats and hope you all take a minute to give yourselves a pat on the back 🙂
-
It feels smoother. I haven't had a stutter yet. The FPS seems more stable. Am I imagining it? I don't know but I hope it is actually better.
ID: hk234lgThe servers are always fresh after an update and the game always runs smoother, give it a couple weeks.
-
wonder if the engine change alone will change anything
ID: hk1rsmnIIRC indoor fog on maps like Interchange shouldn't be a thing anymore.
ID: hk1u63wNot with this patch.
ID: hk1q09hTheres gotta be some minor QOL change in that 7GB update im hopin.
ID: hk1qjz4my guess is literally no other changes so that bugs are more easily traced
-
I´m glad that so far at least on my end nothing seems to have been broken with the update.
-
the update seems like its capped at 1mb download for me with a 100mb/s connection and starting the launcher as admin doesnt seem to fix it any other ideas?
-
So the update 'started' while I was in raid, showing an error about server shutdown, which set the timer from ~40 mins to 5. I managed to extract with 44 seconds left but got an error instead of the standard stats screen.
Did I lose everything? Will the raid count? What would have happened if I didn't extract?
ID: hk1jt4rI'm pretty sure you will at least still have the kit you loaded in with. Not sure if you'll still have the loot you found while in raid.
ID: hk1jxp0You should have a free extract
ID: hk1jza1On server shutdown it should count as a exfil and everything that was on your should be with you when the shorten timer ends, at least that's what happened to me few weeks ago.
ID: hk1op45Good news. On server restart you auto extract wherever you are on map when the timer hits zero. Very rarely you lose anything from you inventory.
