Cheat module compatibility

All 32 tracked cheat modules work on 1.21.1. See the full cheat database for module pages. Notable notes:

  • Combat modules (KillAura, AimBot, Reach, TriggerBot, Criticals, Velocity) work with the 1.21 mace.
  • Movement modules (Fly, Speed, BHop, Step, LongJump, NoSlowdown) work without version-specific adjustments.
  • Visual modules (X-Ray, ESP, NameTags, FullBright, Tracers, Chams) render correctly with 1.21.1 terrain.
  • World modules (Nuker, Scaffold, AutoMine, ChestStealer, FallProtection) work as expected.

Loader availability

  • Fabric Loader — stable, widely tested.
  • Forge — stable for 1.21.1.
  • NeoForge — also available, but less common among clients.

Known limitations

  • Trial chamber terrain is identical to 1.21 — X-Ray works but may miss ores behind trial chamber walls.
  • Some Fabric utility mods built for 1.21.1 may not be compatible with later 1.21.x releases.
  • Server anti-cheat behavior is version-independent — detection is based on behavior, not on the Minecraft version.
