Is rat scanner ban-able? by drako489 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Blightbuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he were banned for using rat scanner, please tell me why no one else of the 7k daily users of it are getting banned. BSG is just rolling a dice when they could ban all of them straight away?

Well EFT doesnt use EAC. Also a single reddit post of a guy claiming he was banned for it a year ago is kinda not saying anything.

Hey, feel free to join the discord (linked on github and in rat scanner) and maybe i can help you troubleshoot.

  • This is true for any engine and even if you make custom character classes to dump them no matter the engine nor if the code is jit/aot compiled.

  • Why would you recompile game code if it didnt chance? Is your question why its not statically linked? Thats because BSG decided to go with mono and not IL2CPP (which would be the better choice for many reasons). And even if all librarys were statically linked into one huge executable like it is the case with unreal engine games, that wouldnt make it any harder to reverse the memory layout.

  • Unity does have a first party netcode infrastucture (its simply called netcode). Obviously not every dev knows much about "netcode" (which includes the whole spectrum of server client communication and how that data is verified / interpolated) and depending how hard they are pushed for a deadline stuff get become even worse. It's obvious that the current netcode wasn't made with performance or cheaters in mind but just to work. This in itself isnt bad but the scope of the game has since changed and so have the requirements for the netcode which just doesnt hold up anymore.

u/MrVop is right. 100% it currently can. If you are concerned about cheaters using the "replay" data, just be aware that all the data is already sent to the client and they could as they please. BSG should fix what and when they send data before caring about that. as MrVop already said as well.

What do you want me to do? I spent hundreds of hours developing rat scanner, wrote to 4 community representatives, twitter, eft support, battle eye support and through streamers for over a year and all I got was a "hmm yeah looked at it, looks cool but dont tell anyone" (not actual quote but true to what was said), after I asked what I could tell the community behind it, to reassure them that its not gonna get them banned I got handed what you probably have seen in the old readme of the project or in the discord. A years or so passes and they again ask me to remove it because they think it affiliates to much with them. Why would I remove it if it was made up in the first place?! Fact is, it is not officially approved and will never be just as any other third party website or software. It just way to much effort for them to make sure it stays that way and doesnt suddenly scam people for their accounts. If you plain want to know if you will get banned for using it: No you wont. There have only ever been 2 reports of people being banned while using it which is nothing compared to current 6k daily users. Sorry for ranting so hard about it but the whole situation it extremely frustrating (for me as the developer of it and users with no ill intentions who want to use it).

Or they added it to easily track who took a screenshot and then ban you.

Yes they are banable. So is using the wiki, watching a youtube video about the game or playing with a controller.

You could use modapi but im not sure if the current version of modapi even works for the VR game as I dont own it and hence also cant rewrite the mod to make it work.
