Tarkov Requested Value Botpmc Was Not Found | How to Fix
The error message “Requested value ‘BotPmc’ was not found” in Escape from Tarkov, particularly within the SPT-AKI (Single Player Tarkov) modded environment, typically indicates a configuration or compatibility issue related to bot definitions.
🛠️ Understanding the Error
In SPT-AKI, bots are categorized by types such as "assault" (Scavs), "pmcUsec", and "pmcBear". The term "BotPmc" is not a recognized bot type in the standard configuration. If a mod or configuration file references "BotPmc", the game cannot resolve this, leading to the error.
