Tundra Radar setup for Arena Breakout: Infinite
Step-by-step launch for Tundra Radar. The map opens in a browser, so there is no in-game menu — every setting lives on the radar page. Most of the work is system preparation: six steps, three of them manual, two reboots and one button inside the loader itself, about fifteen minutes in all.
Requirements
- Windows 10 or 11 (x64) — builds up to 26H1
- An Intel or AMD processor
- The game from the Arena Breakout launcher or from Steam
- Administrator rights: the loader only starts as administrator
- A second screen, phone or tablet to keep the map open
System requirements
Preparation
Order matters: manual work first, then a reboot, only then the loader button and one more reboot — otherwise some auto-fixes will not apply. All together it takes about fifteen minutes.
Remove third-party antivirus and anti-cheats Kaspersky, Avast, ESET and the like, plus FaceIT and Riot Vanguard, conflict with the loader. They must be uninstalled, not just paused.
-
Open Settings → Apps → Installed apps (or Control Panel → Programs and Features).
-
Uninstall any third-party antivirus (Kaspersky, Avast, AVG, ESET, 360, Malwarebytes, etc.). Pausing or disabling is not enough — the antivirus driver stays resident.
-
Uninstall the FaceIT AC and Riot Vanguard anti-cheats if present — they block third-party software at the kernel level.
- FaceIT is the CS2 anti-cheat, Vanguard is the Valorant one. If you don't play those games, they are safe to remove.
After removing an antivirus, restart the PC — some of its services only unload after a reboot.
Fully disable Windows Defender The #1 cause of "it won't launch". Disable it for real: manually first, then remove it from startup, reboot, and finish it off with Defender Control.
-
Step 1. Turn protection off by hand. Open Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Manage settings and switch every toggle off:
- Real-time protection — Off.
- Cloud-delivered protection — Off.
- Automatic sample submission — Off.
- Tamper Protection — Off. Turn this one off first, otherwise the others switch themselves back on.
-
Step 2. Disable reputation-based protection. In Windows Security → App & browser control → Reputation-based protection → Settings, turn everything off (SmartScreen, potentially-unwanted-app blocking).
-
Step 3. Remove Defender from startup. Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) → Startup apps tab, find Windows Security notification icon and click Disable.
-
Step 4. Restart your computer. This is mandatory — some Defender services only unload after a reboot.
-
Step 5. Finish with Defender Control. Download Defender Control (archive password: r1xon), run it as administrator and click Disable Windows Defender — the tile turns red.
- If your antivirus deletes the utility itself, protection is still active — go back to step 1. The file ships zipped on purpose so Defender can't wipe it before it's disabled.
Don't skip steps 3–4. "I turned the toggles off but it didn't help" almost always means Defender came back after restart because it was left in startup.
-
Turn off Windows Defender — by hand first. Under «Manage settings» switch off all four toggles: real-time protection, cloud-delivered protection, automatic sample submission and tamper protection. The order is not accidental: while Tamper Protection is on, Defender Control cannot apply its change.
-
Uninstall third-party antivirus with the vendor's own removal tool, not through «Add or remove programs»: a regular uninstall leaves drivers in the kernel that keep blocking the loader. For Kaspersky that is kavremover; for the rest, search «antivirus name + removal tool» on the vendor's site.
-
Uninstall other games' anti-cheats — Riot Vanguard (Valorant) and FACEIT AC if they are installed. For these the regular «Add or remove programs» is enough.
-
Reboot the PC. This step is mandatory: without it the antivirus and anti-cheat drivers stay loaded in the kernel, and Defender comes back on the next boot.
-
Download the loader — download Tundra Radar — put it in its own folder, run it as administrator and press 🔧 Prepare system. The button turns off HVCI, VBS and Hypervisor Launch by itself — no manual registry editing is needed.
-
Reboot the PC once more. Those fixes only apply on the next kernel boot. After the second reboot the system is ready.
Launch
-
Put tundra_radar.exe in a convenient folder and do not run it straight from an archive
-
Right-click the file → Run as administrator
-
Enter the license key in the `TUNDRA-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX` form — it arrives right after payment
-
Wait for the «Ready» status. Do not close the loader window — it closes on its own and opens the radar tab
-
Start the game and enter a raid as usual: pick the map and mode, wait for the location to load
-
The map fills up while you are in the raid: in the main menu and on the loading screen it is empty, and that is normal
-
Keep the map tab open for the whole raid. Nothing has to be restarted for the next raid — the map refreshes on its own
-
Tip: open the radar on your phone or a second monitor. The map then stays out of stream capture and is always within reach
Map legend
The same legend is built into the radar itself.
-
Circles are players. Green is you and your teammates. Enemies are coloured by team: every squad gets its own colour, so you can tell at a glance who moves together.
-
Diamonds are AI. The colour depends on the type: light blue is an AI PMC, white a bot, red a boss, pink a guard, green a scav, orange an actor, purple elite, lime a zombie. The colours can be changed in the radar settings.
-
A triangle instead of a circle is a player on another floor: ▲ above you, ▼ below.
-
A yellow X with a red pulse is a knocked-down player (DBNO).
-
Next to a player you see a health bar (green → yellow → red) and the value of their gear, for example $15k. Hover over the player to get a breakdown of their gear.
-
TH and T7 are thermals. TH means the player has a thermal scope on their weapon, T7 means their helmet thermal is on.
-
A backpack icon is a backpack a player dropped. A green square is a safe, and the marker colour shows its state: green is closed, orange is open, red means someone is looting it right now.
-
The Trader window shows the trader's stock right in the radar, with boxes outlined in their rarity colour. Hover over a box to get the list of items it can contain, with rarity and price. These are variants, not a guaranteed item. The ↻ button in the window header refreshes the list.
Problems & fixes
The map is empty, no players and no loot
Check that you are already in a raid: in the main menu, in the hideout and on the loading screen the map is empty by design. If it is empty inside the raid too, the loader is not reading the game. Usually Windows has switched Memory Integrity or real-time protection back on after an update or a reboot: redo the first preparation step, press 🔧 Prepare system in the loader and reboot.
The antivirus deleted the loader right after the download
It is a false positive, normal for this kind of software. The order matters: first fully disable Defender and remove third-party antivirus software (Kaspersky, Avast, 360 and similar), and only then download the file. If the file is already gone, restore it from quarantine or download it again after protection is off, and add the loader folder to exclusions.
The loader window closed by itself — is that an error?
No, that is the intended behaviour. After a successful connection the loader closes and opens the map link in your default browser. If the browser did not open, the link is still valid — take it from the browser history or run the loader again and copy the address from its window.
The key is rejected
Copy the whole key from the email or the bot with no trailing spaces, and do not type it by hand: `0` and `O`, `1` and `I` are easy to confuse. Then check the system time — activation fails when it drifts from real time: `Win + R` → `timedate.cpl` → `Internet Time` → `Change settings` → `Update now`, or `w32tm /resync` in an administrator command prompt.
The loader closes itself in one or two seconds
Nine times out of ten it is Memory Integrity or Tamper Protection: Windows turns them back on by itself. Redo the first preparation step, press 🔧 Prepare system and reboot. The loader must be started as administrator. If that still does not help — Secure Boot: the vendor does not require disabling it, but as a last resort enter BIOS/UEFI (`Del`, `F2` or `F12` at boot) and set Secure Boot to Disabled.
Positions on the map do not update or lag behind
The map tab has to stay open for the whole raid: a minimised or browser-discarded tab stops receiving updates. On a phone, prevent the system from sleeping the tab and do not keep the screen off for long. If only you lag behind, check the connection — updates are tuned for low traffic, but the map freezes when the link drops.
The wrong map was detected
Detection follows the loaded location, so a map change is picked up when you enter a new raid. If the old map stayed, refresh the radar page (`F5`) while already in the raid. On TV Station also check the selected floor — that map is split into levels.
Too much loot on the map, nothing is readable
Raise the price filter — it starts at 35,000 but can be set with the slider or typed in manually. Turn on strict mode to keep known items only, without containers and junk. If it is the whole overlay rather than the loot, start from the Minimal preset and add what you need on top.
The «Memory Integrity» toggle is greyed out
An incompatible driver is holding it. Open Windows Security → Device security → Core isolation → «Incompatible drivers» — it names the culprit, usually an old USB, printer or audio driver. Remove that driver, reboot and repeat the preparation.
Hyper-V, WSL2, Docker Desktop or «Sandbox» are installed
They force VBS back on, so the preparation does not stick. Press Win, open «Turn Windows features on or off» and uncheck Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform, Windows Sandbox and Windows Subsystem for Linux, then reboot.
It stopped working after a Windows update
A feature update often flips Memory Integrity and Defender back on. Redo the first preparation step and press 🔧 Prepare system — usually five minutes.
Advanced setup — only if it still won’t launch
Use a VPN for download and activation CIS ISPs often block the activation servers. A VPN is needed while downloading the loader, activating the key and injecting — you can turn it off before joining a match.
-
Use a full VPN (an app that routes all traffic), not a browser proxy, VLESS or extension — half the support tickets come from exactly this.
-
Turn the VPN on before downloading the loader and activating the key. If something won't load, switch country (Europe or the US usually work).
-
After a successful inject you can turn the VPN off before the match to avoid extra ping.
A VPN fixes most endless-loading and "key won't activate" problems.
FAQ
Where do I get the key after payment?
The key arrives instantly after payment — it appears on the order page and lands in your email, and if Telegram is linked to your account, our bot sends a copy too. This guide opens from there as well.
Which key opens the menu in game?
None. This is a web radar: nothing is drawn over the game and every setting lives on the map page in the browser. That is why it does not conflict with overlays and stays out of screen capture when the map is open on a phone or a second monitor.
What do the map markers mean?
Circles are players: green is you and your teammates, enemies are coloured by team, one colour per squad. Diamonds are AI, coloured by type: light blue is an AI PMC, white a bot, red a boss, pink a guard, green a scav, orange an actor, purple elite, lime a zombie. A ▲ or ▼ triangle is a player a floor above or below, a yellow X is a knocked-down player. TH is a thermal scope, T7 a helmet thermal, $15k the value of a player's gear. A backpack icon is a dropped backpack, a green square is a safe: green is closed, orange open, red means it is being looted.
How do I see the trader's stock?
The radar has a Trader window with the trader's whole stock, boxes outlined in their rarity colour. Hover over a box and the radar shows which items it can contain, with rarity and price. The ↻ button in the window header refreshes the list.
The trader shows several items in one box — which one will I get?
That is not known in advance. Since the update the radar shows only the variants of items that can be in the slot, not a guaranteed item. The list helps you judge whether the box is worth the money: for example, "5 var." in the header means five possible items.
Can I open the map on a phone?
Yes, there is a dedicated mobile layout — portrait and landscape, with adaptive panels. Open the same link the loader gave you on your phone. Position updates are tuned for low traffic, so mobile internet is enough.
Do I need to restart the loader between raids?
No. One launch covers the whole session: the map clears when you leave a raid and fills up again on the next one, switching to the right location by itself. A restart is only needed after rebooting the computer or closing the game entirely.
Are settings kept between launches?
Yes. Your own layout is saved as a preset, next to the ready-made Minimal, Medium and Full. Settings move between devices with Export / Import — handy when the computer and the phone use different layouts. Reset all restores the factory look.
Can I use one key on two PCs?
No: the key is bound to the hardware — CPU, motherboard and system disk. If the hardware has changed, support resets the binding.
Does it work on a laptop?
Yes. But on 2023+ laptops, especially Lenovo and Dell, Memory Integrity is forced on by BIOS policy — the whole preparation has to be done, including the 🔧 Prepare system button and the second reboot.
Do I need a VPN?
Usually no. It is only needed if your ISP interferes with the loader download or the activation — in that case use a full VPN client rather than a browser extension.
Still stuck?
Run R1XON Checker first — it pinpoints most launch problems in 30 seconds. If it still fails, attach the checker report to your support ticket and we’ll sort it out fast.
