FriendFinder

FriendFinder scans the client's render distance for players whose usernames appear on a configured friend list. When a match is found, the module displays a notification, plays a sound, or highlights the player on the HUD. It is a utility module for players on large servers who want to know when acquaintances appear nearby.

What it does

FriendFinder monitors player entities in render distance and compares their usernames against a stored list. Configurable options:

• Friend list — usernames to monitor.
• Alert mode — chat message, sound, or HUD notification.
• Highlight — optionally color-code friends in ESP or NameTags.

Client support

Server compatibility

• Hypixel — Restricted. Client-side, not detectable.
• 2b2t — Permitted. No anti-cheat active.
• CubeCraft — Restricted. Client-side, not detectable.

Detection behavior

FriendFinder operates entirely on client-side entity data. No packets reach the server. Server-side detection is not possible. The only exposure risk is visual — if a stream or screenshot shows the alert notification, viewers may notice the module in use.

Known limitations

• Friend list matches are case-sensitive and require exact username input.
• Alerts only fire for players within render distance.
• Some servers hide player names for invisible players, in which case FriendFinder cannot detect them.
