Changelog / Features:
╚═══════════════════════════╝
0.9.10:
* FIX: RF is now a single instance app, you can't launch more than one instance. This should lower the number of people asking for the error "socket in use" :)
* FIX: auto checking for updates might display the new version message even if there's none.
* CHANGE: Some language updates.
* CHANGE: your real upload will be appended when you use "report my upload as x.x times my download". The final result then will be downloaded x multiplier + uploaded. That way, even if your download has been completed, you can continue seeding.

0.9.8:
* FIX: RSS not working in uTorrent when Ratio Faker is enabled
* FIX: write permission error for debug.log (in Windows Vista/7)

0.9.7:
* FIX: tracker offline message on 0.9.6
* FIX: after closing Ratio Faker there's still a running thread of it
* ADD: option to not generate error.log (not recommended!)
* CHANGE: some multi-threading improvements

Remember!: Before changing from one mode to another, changing the modifier or ratios, ALWAYS stop (not pause!) all your torrents.

What is this?:

If you know what GreedyTorrent is, then the answer is really simple: it's a clon.
But wait, it's not based on GT ... this is a written-from-scratch software, I don't even know GT author.

I've started this project because I think that there's one important missing feature in GT, and that's the ability to pick up a random modification ratio. That's the biggest problem of GT, and because of that it's relative easy to detect when someone is using it (for tracker admins).

Ratio Faker offers the possibility to generate a random value in every announce, like in a real bittorrent transfer scenario. Obviously, you must select the extreme values moderately.

Please, report any bug or problem that you find by posting a comment here.

Should work with any client that support http proxy, but I've only tested with µTorrent 1.8.x.

How to use?

- Open Ratio Faker and check in what port is listening

- Open µTorrent or your favourite bittorrent client and set the proxy with the following data:

Host: 127.0.0.1
Port: 8282 (you should put here the listening port of step 1)
Proxy Type: http

For example, in µTorrent you have to go to Option, Preferences. Go to Connection, under Proxy Server section enter the above data and then click OK to save.

That's all!

i am using utorrent 1.8 and configured as u said before but its not working i get this errormessage : invaild http reply . all port set to 8282 even in my router.

mmmmm
30.03.09, 17:31
@supercheater
if u use it reasonable then no tracker can detect u.

@yokohama
U DON"T NEED to forward the RF port (8282) in ur router just do like the following:
utorrent:
options>preferences>connection>proxy server>
Type : Http
proxy : 127.0.0.1
port : 8282

then u need RF to be opened .

Remember :
to disabled any proxy in ur IE or FF then it will work without any problem.

Please post a screen of your uTorrent proxy settings.

Energise was having the same problem and it was caused by "use proxy server for peer-to-peer connections" being ticked. And even though after unticking it he kept on getting the errors, his fake upload was shown on the tracker's side.

02.04.09, 06:52
It was connection to peer closed or on other torrents proxy connect error:offline(timed out ).

SealLion
02.04.09, 07:57
So here's the scoop: It works on uT v 1.6* with out any concerns re: that version of client while using RF; however, I've asked the author on his blog if he would consider altering the program on a potential update of this program with out the user having to stop the client's torrent just in order to change the modifier, the ratio's, etc....as I find having to do that is a bit of an inconvenience.

Just a little more testing to do and I'll probably (maybe??) post another tutorial on how to use this appy strategically on any tracker as I am beginning to think (as per current testing) that this app's settings can be configured slightly differently then GT to safely gain a good ratio yet also maintain account survival without having to go overboard on ratio pimping and risking one's account.

i'm new to this tool and i'm not sure if it works the way i think it should. say i've uploaded 5MB on one torrent and 7mb on another torrent and have a setting like this:

"report my upload as 1.500 times my upload"

will it report 7.5mb up and 10.5mb to the tracker?

02.04.09, 19:14
@SealLion: thanks in advance for your tutorial. :top:


Invalid request!Could not parse host and/or port.I will try greedy torrent until i find out why it's not working

Remember GreedyTorrent isn't working with uTorrent 1.8.2.


"report my upload as 1.500 times my upload"

will it report 7.5mb up and 10.5mb to the tracker?

Yes, since you're multiplying your upload by 1.5.

That should work fine, but just in case you could try uninstalling 3.5 and installing 2.0.

Thanx gr8 tool. Its working well on my comp. But.......... Multiplication is limited to 100 MB maximum. Where greedy is 999 MB I think. Is there any way I can maximize the 100 MB limit. Because I used 211 MB before on almost every tracker (TL,TD,BCG,RevTT,TB,XBOXSky etc.) and its work very well.

I guess that's to prevent you from using huge multipliers, and therefore there should be no way to disable it.

If you want to fake such high uploads use the PMR.

For Mihai91:

show the actual log file from RF with the necessary edit of some info.

utilize the correct port, too.

Here. Does this help:


Host: 127.0.0.1
Port: 8282
Proxy Type: http

For example, in µTorrent you have to go to Option, Preferences. Go to Connection, under Proxy Server section enter the above data and then click OK to save.

@anon: I've been reading some posts here and realized the trackers only get the announce from the client right? So do you think any tracker can detect that we are using a proxy tool (RF in this case)? Or the speeds are the only risks? I sure know trackers can detect when you are using a web proxy but what about a local tool?

RF is a local proxy. The tracker can't know you're using the tool itself - using the wrong multiplier(s) is the only risk.

RF is a local proxy. The tracker can't know you're using the tool itself - using the wrong multiplier(s) is the only risk.

If I use it, then isn't RF who would be sending the announce? Is there a chance the tool itself corrupts the announce header or some part of it?

That shouldn't happen as long as the tool is well-coded, and RF is. Matías fixed a lot of announce errors since the first version.

As far as I know, no. While you download, your real upload is added. After you finish, only your real up is used so that you can seed.


If it doesn't, wouldn't it look strange if first i upload with 0.7-1.5x my download speed and then upload about 50kB/s? (my real upload speed)

Yes; but you can say you limited your upload speed. :tongue:

There shouldn't be any as long as you don't use very high multipliers.

GT doesn't work properly with uTorrent 1.8.2. It won't report your upload and download at all.

MiCRON
22.04.09, 20:35
I didn't know about the issues it has with 1.8.2, good thing I was given a heads up here before making any mess. I wanted to try GT because RF tends to crash on my machine when I have around 20-30 torrents running though not all of them have any down or up activity.

anon
22.04.09, 21:12
If you still want to try it, GT should still work correctly with old uTorrent versions such as 1.7.7 or 1.6.1. :smile:

alpacino
22.04.09, 23:26
I can confirm GT works perfectly with uT 1.7.7 as it was the first tool I used on some better trackers back in the old days. :)

anon, do you think these local proxy tools need to be regularly updated as clients get updated too? I mean, do new clients versions have noticeable announce headers change?

anon
22.04.09, 23:29
anon, do you think these local proxy tools need to be regularly updated as clients get updated too? I mean, do new clients versions have noticeable announce headers change?

It depends on how they're coded. If all Ratio Faker does is looking for the numbers after &uploaded=, &downloaded= and &left= and changing them, theoretically it should work forever with any BitTorrent client - although the same was thought of GT as well...

SealLion
23.04.09, 05:17
I;d like to add something here that is a mild adjunct information to what anon mentions and that is 'why fix something that is'n't broke??"

It's like an old millwright's saying: If it ain't broke, don't fix it'

GT still works well, you know.

And if GT fails to work on updated uT clients,....oh, well. There's always somebody that'll replace it, yes??

And if it won't be that, there's always the other options: You don't necessarily have to use the newest client that's out. There's a tonne load of sites that still accept uT v 1.6.1. And both GT and RF work well with that client version.

I use it, and I am very positive that there are many, many other people that do as well. Not too many sites that I"ve come across dis-allow the use of that client.
And I am sure that you know the reason(s).

Also, just b/c it hasn't been updated in awhile doesn't necessarily suggest that it cannot work correctly or properly.

Perhaps it'll stop working when some announce script of the tracker site is changed. Until then........

Mind you, perhaps there does need to be an update to GT with respect to some issues, but look at RM.

It didn't have an update since 2 years or so ago.

Until just recently, yes??
That thing worked pretty good.
It worked 'ok' actually.
It was actually the first spoof tool that I used before I switched over to 'Sarmin Mod', which by the way,still works very good, you know.

So. The moral of the story:
No software will ever be absolutely perfect.
There's always some kind of bug to it. And then even more bugs that are found thereafter, yes??


One must either wait for updates, try something different, or use a replacement, yes??

yes have tried both ways but still no go


EDIT

Must be a RatioFaker problem as it works with GreedyTorrent

Just tried Deluge for windows 1.1.6 and ratiofaker 0.9.10 to discover it doesn't work for me either. I keep getting this error in log:

03:02:32 Invalid request! Could not parse host and/or port.

Tried changing to many different ports but still didn't work.
The client still downloads and uploads data despite the erros, but it's not cheating.
So I think only Matias could work this out to make it compatible with Deluge.

Do you have alot of torrents in your client at once? I know, when I have alot of torrents reporting at the same time, RatioFaker crashes for me. The only solution that works on my computer is to stop them and then to start one at a time to spead the announces apart.

anon
02.05.09, 00:47
@bo093: the number of "an established connection was aborted..." lines makes it look like you're saturating your connection like anonftw said.

Stop all torrents and start each one by one with a few minutes' pause between them.

It seems your uTorrent isn't accepting these numbers as integers. If you copied and pasted, erase the fields completely or hit cancel and config again, but this time type those values, instead of pasting them. If uT still nudges you, try typing localhost in the proxy field.

Perhaps your regional settings are making Windows parse "127.0.0.1" as a decimal number. Using localhost instead like alpacino said should solve it, but this cause problems if you have the IPv6 protocol installed. If not, everything should be fine. :top:

Before doing so.

Go to our Talk section and read others' experiences, if they tested RF at a tracker they'll have posted which settings they used.

PL31884
16.05.09, 12:23
I'm not a user of this program, but based on what I've seen on different screenshots...

it looks like the multiplier that is randomly determined every time the client sends an announce to the tracker applies to ALL prior data exchanges, instead of just applying to the data exchanged since the last client announce.

This is very, very bad, as it can make you easily detectable if this is actually the way it works.

Example :

First client announce. Suppose total real data exchanged up to this point (doesn't matter whether it's upload or download or your settings, the theoretical problem is the same) is d1 MB, with a m1 random multiplier. (m1*d1) MB are declared.

Now, second client announce. Real total data exchanged up to this point = d2 > d1.
Now the program randomly selects a multiplier of m2, and therefore will declare (m2*d2) MB.

Which is REALLY bad because if it ever happens that m2 < m1*(d1/d2), m2*d2 will end up INFERIOR to m1*d1, ie you'll be announcing LESS data than you did the last time... there's obviously a cheat program in action here.

As a note, saying "that's why you need to keep max and min values close" does not solve the issue, because the d1/d2 ratio will always keep augmenting closer to 1 with time, and so unless you set the max and min ratio to be exactly the same, the situation WILL arise at one point or another (unless you only download small torrents where the relative proportion of data exchanged between two announces is huge).

What SHOULD be done instead, is this :

Let's say the real data exchanged up to the previous announce was d1, and that then announced data to the tracker was md1 (modified data 1).

Suppose it's now time for the new client announce. Real data exchanged up to this point is d2. Randomly select your m2 multiplier between min and max as usual, BUT instead of simply calculating md2=m2*d2, calculate

md2 = m2*(d2-d1)+md1

This not only ensures that nothing will ever go wrong, it's also far, far more realistic in its behavior.

Seriously - this is an imperative.

Have a good day.

it looks like the multiplier that is randomly determined every time the client sends an announce to the tracker applies to ALL prior data exchanges, instead of just applying to the data exchanged since the last client announce.

BitTorrent clients only report the amounts that have been downloaded and uploaded since the last announce, and Ratio Faker only multiplies what it's sent. I have just checked this.

You should test the program before posting :wink:

great . but i have some questions

1- it depends on leechers or not...?
2- the best reports my upload number
( also my uploads too bad so can i make it download )
3- can i use it with all trackers or not...?
4- listen port can i change it to the real port in my router..?

anon
22.05.09, 00:32
1. The upload multiplier relies on you uploading. The download multiplier reports your upload as a multiplier of your download, but is riskier to use.
2. What do you mean?
3. Check others' experiences.
4. That's not necessary, since RF works as a local proxy.

22.05.09, 00:44

anon
22.05.09, 00:46
( also my uploads too bad so can i make it download )

That should be fine - your upload speed will be reported as being the same as your download. But don't set both values to exactly 1.000 so that RF may randomize your speeds, and this setting doesn't work at every tracker.

abookhalil
22.05.09, 00:56
1.56 to 2.3 will be good or make it higher or lower..?

Depends on the tracker (do a search), but in general reporting an upload higher than your download isn't a good idea.

If those old torrents are still on your downloading list, then yes it is possible. If not, then you can load them up again and re-seed. But remember that ratio faker needs traffic to fake, because it multiplies your stats, so any faking torrent must be up and running with minimum traffic.

If you can run it OK after unraring again, then something is corrupting the .exe (like anon said) over and over again. If not an AV, then are you using any anti-spyware?

anon
22.08.09, 22:41
Ñam ñam = you've ticked the "I don't need an error log" checkbox
"A connection attempt failed..." = timeout (connection problem). This has multiple causes, such as the tracker being down (less likely) or an issue with your ISP. It can also be a program problem (like with the RM).

who?
22.08.09, 22:49
Hmmm, I can't even announce to what.cd with proxy settings turned off, do you know what could make this happen? Can you check if you can announce to a what.cd torrent if you don't mind?

anon
22.08.09, 22:50
Sorry, I can't do that at the moment, because I have used my current IP on a site connected to What.cd and I can't seem to change it. But the site seems to be up. If the tracker isn't down (less likely) then it's definitely a problem with your connection.

22.08.09, 23:02
I'm also occasionally getting "connection closed by peer" when trying to connect. :/

anon
22.08.09, 23:03
That ones has multiple causes, too:

A connection was forcibly closed by a peer. This normally results from a loss of the connection on the remote socket due to a timeout or a restart. On a datastream socket, the connection was reset. This reset could be generated locally by the network system when it detects a connection failure, or it might be received from the remote host (in TCP terms, the remote host sent an RST packet). This error is also possible on a datagram socket; for instance, this error could result if your application sends a UDP datagram to a host, which rejects it by responding with an ICMP Port Unreachable.

I indeed have the same error as you on Waffles, the log doesn't even show it's announcing at all, and after a while the connection times out. :confused:

You hit the nail on the head alpacino.

What.CD: "Yes, we know about this. The tracker is currently (and temporarily) on a different server that can't handle all the connections, so many of them time out. It will be fixed. Please stop telling us about it now." - pyth3n

Waffles: Members are claiming it is due to the freeleech and heavy loads, a mod reported that the tracker is working fine and it is a local issue, and "Mr. J" (SysOp) recognizes there is a problem and is requesting users experiencing this problem to post tracerts in the appropriate thread created to diagnose it.

Should be ok as long as you don't get greedy and don't use unrealistic multipliers.

anon
28.08.09, 14:21
TL = any non-extremely high settings should work. I used GT with the download multiplier on torrents without leechers back in 2007 and was never caught.
RevTT = the same, but stop before the update - their mods monitor peerlists. Or you can use the PMR.
TvTorrentz = I don't know, but you can make a dupe account (there are 51 spots left at the time of this post) and check what works and what doesn't.

shoulder
28.08.09, 14:36
For revTT I'd rather recommend the PMR as it's staff sometimes looks at the peerlist and may ask for a speedtest if using high speeds.

27.09.09, 10:30
I have a question: If you are using a given upload multiplier on a given session, would it be bad if you lower this multiplier? I mean, it's ok if you increase it, as RF alters the &uploaded string right? So the tracker could detect you with a script that detects a lowered total uploaded amount in one session. Unless I'm missing something here :biggrin:.

anon
27.09.09, 10:32
That should be no problem - the tracker will see that you "uploaded" less than the last time, which by itself is nothing suspicious.


So the tracker could detect you with a script that detects a lowered total uploaded amount in one session.

The upload you've already reported is stored server-side and can't be decreased, not even by sending negative values.

alpacino
27.09.09, 10:48

I'm still confused, doesn't RF report a multiplied uT uploaded (total) column?


The upload you've already reported is stored server-side and can't be decreased, not even by sending negative values.Let me try to explain what my doubt is, suppose I use a high multiplier, then next I use a lower multiplier. This will make the total uploaded amount report, a decreased one. In this case, how then can it differentiate? :confused:

As far as I know, uTorrent only reports what it has uploaded since the last announce, so that's the only thing RF can cheat on. If RF took your whole uploaded amount, faked it, and reported it, you'd be faking on every announce.

Now anon -> :g63yb5:

That's pretty strange, from what I've been looking here on RF log and from packet sniffing, it is reporting the multiplied grand total on each announce. :rolling_eyes: So my statement is still plausible I guess.
Example on RF log:

05:19:17 Download: *.**, Upload: xy.zw MB, Upload (modified): abc.de MB, Ratio: f,gh
05:19:17 Reported to tracker.*********.net on port 80.
In this case I can assure you RF is reporting "xy.zw" as the total uploaded amount as seen on uT uploaded column, even after having started RF way after the uT session started. :confused:

Now anon -> :g63yb5:
Now alpacino -> same, night watch is over :top:

Interesting... and now I remember, Mihai mentioned this RF property several times. :redface:

What I don't really know is, even if the log entry showing the total upload is just for looks, and only the uploaded amount since the last announce is being reported (as I think it should), how is it getting that data? :confused: Can you check with another client?

cheatos
27.09.09, 21:02
@ Alpacino it happened to me too,
to make RF announce correctly(report the needed uT session) , you need to shutdown uTorrent & RF too as mentioned in Mihai's thread about the waffles method using RF.

alpacino
27.09.09, 23:33
Thanks both of you for your inputs. After a while, uT queued the torrent I was monitoring, so on the logs it sent the event stopped. After sometime I did a force start, and it seems everything is working as it should, as you said anon, i.e., RF sends a new announce with uploaded=0, and after the first announce everything seems to be going sharply, with correct uploaded amount reported. :top: I guess I became a little paranoid here. :tongue:.

Is there any known issues with RF and uT 1.8.2? My log section is full with errors, even with the Chuck Norris option ticked. On the client side, there are no errors apparently. The errors are written in my language, even though I set RF to use english. The most common line is something like "A connection attempt failed ..." :confused:

anon
06.10.09, 22:02
The errors are written in my language, even though I set RF to use english.

That depends on your Windows install language.

What you mention sounds like several timeouts... I'll check with 1.8.2.

Edit: yes, did several tries and it won't work - "connection reset by peer". (That, "connection timed out" and "the device could work faster..." are the Windows messages I hate the most.) Without RF, uTorrent works perfectly.

By the way, I wouldn't advice turning scrape on... at least not with uT 1.8.2...

GET http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/scrape?info_hash=3%82%0d%b6%dd%5eY%28%d2%3b%c8%11% bb%ac%2fJ%e9L%b8%82 HTTP/1.1
You wouldn't want to GET the full URL if you weren't using a proxy, right? And while the Ubuntu tracker doesn't care, BitMeTV will.

For me it didn't (on 1.8.4) - both values were reported as 0. I guess GT is too old to handle new clients correctly.
