Intave vs NoCheatPlus

Intave is a server-side cheating solution for Minecraft servers running Spigot. Its detection approach emulates game code, compares results, and corrects them. Movement and combat cheat detection are listed for every plan; Base and Enterprise also include combat automation and build automation detection. Available enforcement actions include notifications, movement corrections, kicks, temporary or permanent bans, custom proxy commands, and other server responses. Replay analysis is available. Intave is multithreaded and says it supports any player count, with a workflow up to 50 times faster than equivalent game code and the ability to sustain thousands of players. Some detections require an active internet connection. Plans include a free tier and Base and Enterprise, each listed at €79 a month, billed per kilo player-hour. Enterprise is available from 100kPH per month; one kPH represents one thousand hours of playtime. Optional components include automatic updates, storage integrations, and a runtime agent that temporarily patches server classes without permanently changing the server jar.

NoCheatPlus is a free anti-cheat plugin for Minecraft Bukkit, Spigot, and CraftBukkit servers. It is designed to enforce vanilla mechanics and prevent abuse of Minecraft or its protocol. Checks cover movement, fighting, block breaking and placing, inventory behavior, chat and command spam, captcha use, enderpearl abuse, and other malicious activity. Movement checks include flying, speed, excessive packets, fall damage, no-clipping, and vehicle movement. Fight checks address fake critical hits, out-of-reach attacks, excessive hit rates, and invulnerability. Administrators can configure checks and apply actions such as cancellation, logging, server commands, bans, kicks, or denying login. The plugin offers API hooks for exemptions and violation processing. Installation consists of placing its JAR in the server plugins folder and starting Spigot or CraftBukkit. ProtocolLib is required for some network checks, including attack-frequency monitoring. Supported Minecraft versions listed range from 1.7.10 through 1.12.2. The project is GPL-3.0 licensed.
