FoxAddition Anti-Cheat
FoxAddition Anti-Cheat is a free, self-hosted Minecraft server plugin that adds checks alongside another anti-cheat. It supports Spigot, Paper, and Folia, with automatic detection for Folia and traditional Paper or Spigot servers. The Modrinth listing covers Java Edition versions from 1.7.x through 1.21.x and 26.1.x. Listed detections include irregular packets, break aura, bed aura, chest aura, nuker, and invalid movement. Administrators can edit configuration values and disable checks in selected worlds. Available responses include cancelling packets or actions, notifying, kicking, ejecting, and applying a setback or pullback. With GeyserMC it can detect Bedrock players, while Floodgate can control checks by edition. DiscordSRV can send configurable alerts to a chosen channel; optional logs record violations in dated text files. Installation requires placing FoxAddition.jar in the plugins folder and PacketEvents 2.11.0 or newer. The latest listed release is 1.2.3 Beta 2, under an ARR license.
