Changelog

What's new in each release, newest first. The app updates itself in one click, so you are rarely more than a launch behind.

v2.2.0Sep 2026latest
  • Raids, from your own logs. A new Raids page reads the game's log files, back through every folder still on disk, and lists every raid the client played: map, mode, side, server and ping, queue and load times, length and how it ended. Filters for season, map, side and squadmate; a Sessions view that groups raids by sitting; and a Stats tab with totals, personal bests, raids per week and a per-map split.
  • Raid recorder. Turn it on once and every raid is recorded from spawn to extract with the bundled FFmpeg and your NVIDIA encoder at 60 fps, game audio in sync, loading screen trimmed. Files land in Videos\EFT Helper next to their raid. No OBS.
  • Clip editor and Clips. Under every recording: a loudness strip, Start here, End here, Make clip, and Clip last 30 s. Cuts are instant stream copies. A Clips tab lists everything you cut with thumbnails; play in the app, open the file, delete.
  • Squad and Flea log. Who readied up with you, their level and kit, raids together, and leaderboards; and every flea sale the client was told about, with buyers and roubles over time.
  • Maps, in the app. Thirteen maps rendered inside the app with extracts, spawns, locks and keys, containers, hazards, place names and floors. Search an item, key or quest and its spawn points light up. Vector artwork from tarkov-dev-svg-maps (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0); The Lab, Labyrinth and Icebreaker as cached tile maps.
  • Hideout craft profit. Mark your station levels and the Crafts view ranks every recipe by profit per hour after the flea fee, with a ledger for the crafts you start and a best-crafts shortlist on the dashboard.
  • Quick search, rebuilt. A home state before you type (presets, quick actions, recent searches), a larger item image and trend chart, and the same four context sections as the Market card: needed for quests, needed for hideout, obtain via, trader barters.
  • Market. Results beside the item card instead of under it, an empty state, the four sections always present, and the same hero for flea-banned items.
  • Design pass. One set of tokens, type classes and empty and loading states across every page; charts fill their cards; help icons centred; caliber picker on Ammo reworked; Bosses list fills its height; the Last raid card says so.
  • Fixed: quick search rendering offset to one side after launch; Squad leaderboards not rendering; the dashboard game status never flipping to In game; the Market item-select flash; tile maps going blank after zooming.
v2.1.1Aug 2026
  • Fixed: the app wouldn't actually close. Quitting from the tray shut the window but left EFT Helper running in the background — and because only one copy may run at a time, it couldn't be reopened without killing it in Task Manager. It now exits properly, whether you quit from the tray or close the window.
  • Fixed: the tray opened the old interface. "Open EFT Helper" (and double-clicking the tray icon) brought up the pre-2.0 window instead of the current one. The tray menu now opens the real app — as do Quick Search and Gamma Overlay from the same menu.
v2.1.0Aug 2026
  • A proper installer. EFT Helper now installs like a normal Windows app — one Start Menu entry, an Add/Remove Programs record and a real uninstaller. No unzipping, no admin prompt, and updates replace the old version instead of leaving copies scattered around. Your presets and quest progress are never touched.
  • CORSAIR XENEON Edge widget. If you have a CORSAIR LCD panel, you can now put your favorites, your quest shopping list and your starred quests on it — live flea prices, hand-in counts and Found-in-Raid flags, updating while you play. Show one list or stack all three.
  • Design your own cards. A visual builder inside the app (Edge Widget in the sidebar) lets you pick exactly what each item shows — flea price, the quests that need it, hideout use, barters, trader sell price, ammo penetration — arrange it, size it, and preview it at true panel size before you use it. It tells you live whether everything still fits.
  • Star quests for the panel — hit ☆ Edge on any quest and it appears on the display; tap it on the touchscreen to expand its objectives.
  • Fixed Start minimized to tray, which had quietly stopped working in 2.0 — and the tray icon now reopens the right window.
v2.0.0Aug 2026
  • Complete visual overhaul. The whole app has been redesigned from the ground up to match this site — same lightweight engine underneath, a far better-looking and better-organized interface on top: RAID, INTEL and PROGRESSION sections instead of a wall of tabs.
  • New Dashboard — your display state, game detection, one-tap actions, favorites watchlist, quest shopping list and all hotkeys on one screen.
  • Quick search and the in-raid gamma overlay were rebuilt — sleeker, draggable, adjustable transparency, and you can now track or complete quests straight from search.
  • Wiki guides on quest cards — a how-to from the community wiki loads right under the objectives.
  • Feedback board in the app — request features and report bugs without opening the site; it’s the same board, synced both ways.
  • Config backup & restore, a first-launch tour, honest “data source unreachable” screens with retry, real Startup settings (launch with Windows, start minimized), and the window remembers its size and position.
  • Dozens of polish touches: dark titlebar, custom scrollbars, animations, and every hotkey shown in-app now reflects your bindings.
v1.1.4Aug 2026
  • Fixed ammo ballistics not showing on item cards — quick-search a round again and you'll see penetration, damage and the armor-class blocks.
v1.1.3Jul 2026
  • Big reliability fix: item barters, quests, hideout and ammo info now load from a more dependable source — so they keep working even when the data provider has an outage (this fixes the recent "info won't show up" issue).
  • Bosses, maps and all the reference tabs moved to that same resilient source, and everything caches locally so it works offline too.
  • Items now open their wiki page when you hit Enter.
  • Hideout requirements now show a FIR tag when an item must be Found-in-Raid.
  • New PvE / Regular data toggle in Settings.
v1.1.2Jul 2026
  • Only one copy of the app can run at a time now — no more accidental duplicate windows.
  • Hotkeys only fire while Tarkov is in focus, so keys like Shift + − stop doing anything on your desktop once you've closed the game. (And every hotkey is fully customizable.)
  • Fixed a rare "Python DLL" error that could appear right after an auto-update.
v1.1.1Jul 2026
  • Added quick links inside the app (HOME tab) to the website, the feature & bug tracker, and Ko-fi.
  • Fresh screenshots showing the overlay and quick-search running live over the game.
  • Naming and text cleanup.
v1.1.0Jul 2026
  • New Bosses tab: HP on a body outline, spawn maps with location odds, guard escorts, and typical gear.
  • Quest hand-in shopping list — every item you still owe, Found-in-Raid flagged.
  • Smarter, type-aware item stats, pinned ★ favorites, and assorted fixes.
v1.0.0first release
  • Gamma / brightness / contrast presets on global hotkeys, plus a draggable in-raid overlay.
  • Universal quick search: live flea & trader prices, 24h low/high, and 7-day charts.
  • Maps, ammo ballistics, quests and hideout reference — all from one lightweight tray app.
  • One-click auto-updates and zero telemetry.
