Menu Shows but ESP or Visuals Don't Work
If the menu opens but ESP, boxes or other visuals don't appear, restart your PC and inject again. That fixes most cases. If it keeps happening, check the causes below.
Not enough RAM (memory paging)
On a PC with 16 GB of RAM or less, Windows moves game memory out to disk when RAM gets full. The cheat can't read memory that has been paged out, so ESP comes up empty.
- Close browsers and other heavy apps while you play.
- Set up ISLC for 16 GB systems to keep the standby list under control.
- For the long term, 32 GB of RAM or more solves it.
Warning
Don't run RAM cleaner tools with Escape from Tarkov. They interfere with ESP and stop it from drawing.
The cheat is updating
Right after a game patch, the cheat may need an update before visuals work again. Check the live status page. If your game shows Updating, wait until it's back to Up to date. We update the status page as soon as a new build ships.
Still stuck
Work through the troubleshooting guide. If the menu doesn't respond to clicks at all, see Menu not clickable.
