Can I get banned for using Rat Scanner?

While Battlestate Games does not support nor is affiliated with this project, it exists since two years with over 1.000 players using it every day in their games. So far there has not been a single instance in which RatScanner was proven to have caused any ban.



Program issues

There is no RatScanner.exe file

Make sure you downloaded and extracted the files as described inside the download section

If you still cannot see RatScanner.exe it is most likely removed by your antivirus. In that case, create a exception for it or disable your antivirus.

Rat Scanner is not starting

  • Try starting RatScanner.exe as administrator
  • Make sure that there is no antivirus blocking RatScanner from accessing or downloading additional files

If you still can't run the application, you are probably missing the WebView2 Runtime (which should usually come with Edge).

Download WebView2 Runtime

Nothing happens when scanning

  • Check that you set your resolution correctly inside the settings
  • Try to run RatScanner as administrator

RatUpdater.exe could not be found! Please update manually.

Downloaded the latest version here.

Unable to download updater, please update manually.

Could not find icon cache folder at: ...

Please have a look at the question below.

Could not find dynamic correlation data at: ...

  1. Close RatScanner
  2. Start Escape From Tarkov
  3. Go to Mechanics trading screen and wait for all icons to load (no spinning circles)
  4. Start RatScanner.exe

The type initializer for 'OpenCvSharp.NativeMethods' threw an exception.

This probably means you are missing the Windows Media Features.

There are two ways to install the Media Feature Pack:

  • Navigate to Settings > Apps > Apps and features > Optional features > Add a feature, and then locate Media Feature Pack in the list of available optional features.
  • Download the pack installer for your Windows version from here and run it.

After the installation has finished, restart your computer to make sure the changes are applied.



Scanning issues

Icon scanning gets a lot of wrong matches

Icon scanning still has some known issues, some which are not possible to fix. This currently leads to items like keys and small attachments matching wrong due to their simularity to other items. Also, when in the stash, the light bright in the top center of the screen interferes with the top left section of the stash which results in extremly bad results.
