ProAntiCheat
ProAntiCheat is a lightweight, advanced anti-cheat plugin for Minecraft 1.20.4+, built to detect modern hacks with precision and minimal false positives. It focuses on behavioral detection rather than outdated pattern-matching methods, making it effective against today's most advanced hacked clients.
This project is free while in active development. Additional premium modules or paid add-ons may be introduced in the future.
