What does this mod do?
This mod adds the weapons, ammo, mods, injectables, first aid, and all of the other ingredient components to craft them from the popular Escape from Tarkov (EFT) Overhaul. It also provides compatibility with Izy's AIO Weapons Pack.
This Mod is not meant to be combined with the EFT Overhaul!
This is a modular standalone mod derived from the Escape From Tarkov (EFT) Overhaul Mod Pack.
This mod does not/will not have everything from the main EFT Overhaul.
The EFT Team was kind enough to share these resources with us, but they want to keep their distinctives to keep their overhaul special.
This mod is not compatible with the original EFT Overhaul.
This mod contains the same EFT weapons pack and some of the supporting resources from their Overhaul.
If you combine the EFT Extraction Pack with another EFT Overhaul, you will get errors!
Who is this mod for?
This mod is designed for people who want to play with the EFT's guns, without the rest of the changes their Overhaul adds to the game.
This mod was also crafted to be easy to use alongside with other mods.
Example: FNS uses the EFT Extraction Pack along with 350+ other mods in his modular Wabbajack ModOrganizer2 ModList.

Does the EFT Extraction Pack have Requirement Mods?
There are no Hard Requirements for this mod to work. The EFT Extraction Pack is a self-contained mod, it does not need any other mods to function. If you go to the Description tab of this Mod Page, and press the Requirements tab, you can read that the mods listed there are recommended/optional/Soft-Requirements, but not actually required. You can ignore all of the Requirement mods and the EFT Extraction Pack will still work as a standalone mod. We list those optional mods, because most people enjoy using the EFT Extraction Pack with those mods.
Difficulty Recommendation
Since the weapons from EFT and Izy are stronger than vanilla guns, you are highly encouraged to play with more challenging settings. Increase Zombie speed, and possibly overall difficulty because the bullets will eat through their hit points.
Key Binds for EFT/EFT Extraction Pack:
How do I change firing type? From Full-Auto to Single-Fire or Burst? Z-key
How do I switch to under-barrel launchers? X-key
How do I switch ammo types from vanilla to EFT ammo on EFT guns? Hold the R-key, use the wheel to select the ammo choice.
Learn-by-reading (LbR) System update: EFTX-Core-Standard
There are new EFTX magazine series.
The version of EFTX-Core you choose will determine how many magazines you will need to craft EFTX-Weapons.
What this means for you as a player:
1. You will now rarely find EFT guns, only after Game Stage 15, and you will only pull tier 1 quality EFTX-guns.
The emphasis of this mod has moved to crafting to get superior versions.
2. You can find tier 1 EFTX guns in these loot containers: toilets, military trucks, police cars, and gun safes.
3. You need to read between 10 and 25 related magazines to unlock the ability to craft it.
Then you need to continue reading more magazines for additional crafting tier levels.
4. Vanilla Cop, Soldier, Mutants, Businessman, Biker, and Nurse zombie corpses are now lootable.
This will likely be your best source of EFTX magazines.
They also have a small chance of dropping tier 1 EFTX guns.
I cannot stress this enough: Looting Cop, Soldier, and Mutant corpses is priority #1!!!
LittleRedSonja's Fancy Zombie Variants: the applicable vanilla reskinned zombies are lootable with EFTX.
5. Ammo Piles are another great place to find EFTX Skill Magazines.
6. I strongly encourage you to play at 100% Loot Abundance with EFTX going forward to give yourself the best odds to pull those new EFTX skill magazines.
Please keep an open mind to the recent changes made to this mod, a lot of hard work went into this update.
Some people might not like all of the changes, but this was done to lengthen your playthrough and make it feel like you earned it when you get a higher tier EFT gun.
Finding tier 6 doom-cannons on day 1 was broken, way too OP.
I'm open to constructive criticism, but please don't whinge!
If you have any constructive criticism, please share it on the Nexus comments forum, or over at the #eft-only-guns channel at Guppy's Discord Server.
Permissions and Credit:
This mod is used with permissions from both the EFT-Team and Izayo (Izy).
You are not authorized to repurpose the assets used in this mod without all of the original creators permissions.
All credit for the creation of the assets in this mod belong to the EFT-Team: M14, CloserEx, and BryanDVS
Notices:
1. This mod contains EFT weapons only!
If you want to run the Izy's AIO Weapon pack, you will have to grab it from here:
https://www.nexusmods.com/7daystodie/mods/5458
2. DO NOT ENABLE/DISABLE MID-GAME!
Disable/Enable only prior to starting a new save or it will 100% break your progression and likely cause other errors.
3. When updating the pack, please first delete the old instance fully and then re-add the updated mod to your Mods folder. Dragging and overwriting in place can lead to lots of issues and things not copying over properly, especially if things have been removed. A lingering item, could jam up your game!
4. Ammo Compatibility with EFT Extraction and Izy.
You get to choose the ammo pack you want to play with under the optional mod files!
Some of Izy's ammunition types are exclusive to Izy.
EFT ammo will not work in Izy guns.
EFT ammo will not work in vanilla guns.
Izy ammunition types will not work in EFT guns.
5. LittleRedSonja has an Ammunition Recycling mod that is compatible with both Izy and EFT ammunition types.
With her mod, you can recycle one ammo type down to 80% of it's components, so you can craft other ammo types you need.
6. FNS has also provided an add-on mod patch to the Oakraven Ammo Press for compatibility with Izy and EFT ammo types.
7. "This isn't working in Vortex?"
From veteran-Vortex user FNS: "Do not use Vortex as a Mod Manager for 7DtD! It will not automatically handle mods with complicated folder structures like EFT Extraction or Izy's AIO. Additionally, Vortex can screw up Load Order, leave duplicate mods in folders that cause errors, and be difficult to update mods on large lists.
You have three options:
A. Manually adding mods to your Mods folder. StallionsDen prefers Manual modding.
B. Using ModLauncher (manually adding it yourself)...
C. Using the ModOrganizer2 mod manager. FNS recommends MO2.

Does the EFT Extraction Pack work with other Overhauls:
"Does the EFT Extraction Pack work for Darkness Falls?"
No! We have no plans to make that compatibility patch.
If someone else wants to make Extraction compatible with DF, it'd be on them.
"What about Rebirth?"
**COMING SOON**
This compatibility patch mod is not my mod.
If you have an issue with getting EFT weapons to work in Rebirth, you will need to request assistance from that mod's author.
"Does it work with the EFT Overhaul Mod?"
We already answered that further up this page. No! You'd be overlapping the mod files and it would break your game!
"What about fill-in-the-blank other Overhaul mod?"
Probably not. Overhaul mods are generally complicated, with overlapping file issues.
It's a lot of work to fix this stuff.
It might work in some lighter Overhaul mod packs, but it'd be on you to try and report back in the comments section.
"Good News Everyone! The EFT Extraction Pack is compatible with the Fly-by-Night Overhaul mod pack!"

Download Instructions:
1. Download the EFTX_Core
2. Then Choose one below. You may choose either:
A. EFTX-Pack-Standard,
or
B. EFTX-Pack-Slow-Progression
, but not both! You only need one.
Standard is closer to vanilla progression speed for people who only stick with one playthrough for 20-50 hours.
There are less EFTX magazine series, for a more streamlined progression. If you want to be able to craft higher tier EFTX weapons sooner, choose this option.
The Slow-Progression version is for people who like to spend 60+ hours in one playthrough taking a long time to get better weapons. More magazine series, makes for a much slower and challenging experience to level up your weapons.
2. Choose one Ammo mod. You may choose from one of the following:
A. Z2 EFT Extraction Both Ammo: EFTX guns will fire either EFTX or Vanilla Ammo.
or
B. Z2 EFT Extraction EFT Only Ammo: EFTX guns will only fire EFTX Ammo.
or
C. Z2 EFT Extraction Vanilla Only Ammo: EFTX guns will only fire Vanilla Ammo.
3. Optional: Add the Food addon with custom animations
4. Optional: EFTX 12 Slot Mods adds a 12 slot mod slots to guns
5. Additionally, you can choose to add/ignore the Optional mod: Z4_EFTX_No_Vanilla_Guns and Z5_EFTX_No_Vanilla_Ammo
6. Optional: Z6_EFTX_Armoured_ZS
A. This is an add on to remove all vanilla weapons from loot and traders.
B. You can still craft the stone weapons but cant be found in the loot.xml
C. When you do the initial Buried Supplies starter quest, the Trader will reward you with a tier 1 EFTX gun of your choice.
Installation Instructions:
For manual installation, simply extract the mod zip folders to your Users/Username/appdata/roaming/7daystodie/Mods folder.

Installation Instructions:
There are three options for installation, pick one.
1. Manual Installation
For manual installation, simply extract the mod zip folders to your Users/Username/appdata/roaming/7daystodie/Mods folder.
Extract files from the zip-folder: Use Winrar, 7-Zip, or the native Window’s extraction tool.
Disable EAC (Easy-Anti-Cheat) from the Game Launcher prior to starting the game.
2. Smörgåsbord, a Wabbajack ModOrganizer2 ModList
This list is the modular buffet table of the very best mods available for the game 7 Days to Die.
This ModList includes EFTX.
3. ModLauncher (ML): installing modlets manually with ModLauncher (YouTube).
FNS/StallionsDen are not support staff for troubleshooting your ModLauncher issues.
Use the YouTube instructional video Sphereii provided first, to see if you can figure it out yourself, prior to asking for assistance at the ModLauncher Discord server.
Note: Vortex is not an option, we will not support you using EFTX with Vortex because it's the worst mod manager for 7DtD.
"But why do you have the Vortex button enabled?" Because that button works for other superior Mod Managers like MO2 and ML.
Highly Recommended Mods that go well with the V1 EFTX Suite:
- (V1) Oakraven Ammo Press [Adds an ammo press workstation.]
- Ammo Press Add-On Patch for EFT and Izy [Compatibility patch for the Oakraven Ammo Press for Izy and EFT Extraction Pack.]
- Closer's Experimental Weapon Pack [For some extra seriously amazing weapons and a Katana.[Has requirements]]
- EFT Recoil Overhaul [The Extraction Version found in Optional Files]
- FNS Make Quest Rewards Great Again [If you want to see weapons in Quest Rewards, use this mod.]

- IZY-All in One Gun Pack v4.1 [Adds MORE guns]
- Medic Perk
- Stallionsdens Stack Size Increaser V1.0 [This is a Stack increase mod that works with Izy and EFT Extraction Pack.]
Known Issues:
NONE
Common Issues:
1. Blank Crafting Menu
This is not a bug in this mod, your issue is a Mod Conflict.
If you are having issues using this mod, you should add this mod to your ModList: Better Mod Compatibility
It often fixes small issues allowing the mod to still function with compatibility issues.
One (or more) of the other mods you are using is causing this error in combination with the Ammo Press mods.
2. Why are the EFT guns not loading in? Why am I holding cloth, or poop?
A. You loaded two Core files when we specifically told you to load only one Core mod. Delete one Core Mod, only use one Core Mod!
B. You installed/enabled EFT on an existing save. Always start a new game when you add a big mod that changes progression.xml.
C. You overwrote an existing installation of EFTX when updating EFTX. Always delete the old prior to installing the new update!
D. Do not try to go from EFTX-Core-Standard to EFTX-Core-Slow-Progression (or vice versa) in the same save, or it will 100% break your save.
Mod Compatibility:
FNS has tested this mod with 350 other mods in his Wabbajack MO2 ModList.
He has access to recipes in his crafting screen and from the Ammo Press.
Here is a list of 350+ other mods it is compatible with: Smorgasbord list of mods archive
You will have to troubleshoot your Mod Conflict yourself.
Here is some guidance if you are new to the process: Basic troubleshooting for mods
As a reminder:
The EFT Extraction Pack ≠ the official EFT Overhaul. Mods that are compatible with one are not always compatible with the other.
Known Mod Compatibility Issues:
1. Firearms Expansion 5 does not mix well with most other weapon overhaul mods.
2. Pant's Weapons does not mix well with most other weapon overhaul mods.
3, Flogis perk mod
On Reporting Mod Issues:
This is a totally separate mod from the standard EFT Overhaul Mod, and the other EFT pack(s) on Nexus/elsewhere.
Please do not report issues concerning this mod, on their forums.
Please report issues concerning this mod, here, and I will attend to them.
How to report an issue here in the comments section:
A. Do not post a screenshot of your Console Errors. That's useless for troubleshooting your issue, or fixing anything.
B. Do not post a few lines of Error Codes from your console log. Again, we need more to help you.
C. If you want assistance, you must post your full log. You can use pastebin to post your log, and leave a link in the comments section.
