ESP

ESP (Extra Sensory Perception) highlights entities through solid blocks. Players, mobs, and dropped items are drawn with a colored box, outline, or filled silhouette that renders through walls. It is a client-side rendering module and does not send additional data to the server.

What it does

ESP renders a visual overlay on entities using their world coordinates. Configurable options:

• Entity filter — players, hostile mobs, passive mobs, items, or specific types.
• Render mode — 2D box, 3D box, corner brackets, outline, or filled silhouette.
• Color — per-category colors (e.g., red for enemies, green for friends).
• Distance limit — maximum render distance.
• Health bars — display entity health on the overlay.

Client support

Server compatibility

• Hypixel — Restricted. Prohibited by server rules, but not technically detectable.
• 2b2t — Permitted. No anti-cheat active.
• CubeCraft — Restricted. Prohibited by server rules.

Detection behavior

ESP renders only on the client. The server cannot see the rendering because no packets are sent. Detection risk comes from:

• Behavioral patterns. Players who react to hidden enemies may be reported by other players.
• Screenshots and streams. Visible ESP overlays on public streams or screenshots can lead to bans.
• Anti-cheat additions. A few servers now check for suspicious rendering behavior on the client, but this is uncommon.

Known limitations

• ESP can be overwhelming in entity-dense areas — filter options matter.
• Distance limits prevent ESP from being effective across the entire render distance.
• Some game modes disable rendering for entities outside a small area.
