Advanced Anti-Cheat vs GK AntiCheat

Advanced Anti-Cheat vAlpha is a free, self-hosted anti-cheat plugin for PocketMine-MP servers. It is described as defending servers against malicious users through checks for movement, combat and other gameplay behavior. Listed movement protections are Anti Fly and Anti Speed. Combat checks include Anti Aimbot, Anti Reach, Anti Hit Box and Fix Hit Delay. Other listed checks cover Anti Auto-Gap, Anti Dup, Anti Xray and Anti Smallking. The plugin manifest identifies version 0.0.2, author LearXD and API version 2.0.0; the README says APIs at version 2.0.0 or earlier are supported. The project is labeled vAlpha and uses the GPL-3.0 license. The GitHub releases page lists 0.0.2 as latest, dated October 1, with notes about fixing several fly bugs and an anti-auto-clicker issue. The README warns that unchecked feature options may still be in development or testing. It includes a demonstration section identified as a video from the maintainer’s channel. The listed feature set does not include replay analysis.

GK AntiCheat is a Minecraft server plugin that checks players to deter hacked clients from entering a server. Its listed verification flow asks a player to send a random code using a .say command supplied through tellraw. Administration commands cover help, configuration reloads, whitelist changes, and player-record checks. Detection targets include hacked clients and spamming bots, with kicking, automatic bans, and whitelist exclusion listed as enforcement actions; automatic bot kicking is still being tested. The plugin is listed for Spigot and tested on Minecraft versions 1.8 through 1.16, though its native major version is Legacy, below 1.13. Configuration languages include German and Chinese, and compatibility is listed with SkillAPI, other skill plugins, and other anti-cheat plugins. The author says it is mainly for Kit PvP or SkillAPI servers and recommends pairing it with another anti-cheat for survival servers. It has a free plan and paid access from $4.99 one-time. The author also warns that some hacked clients can bypass it and that update time is limited.
