What TruthfulAC is
TruthfulAC is a free, open-source anti-cheat project for self-hosted Minecraft servers. It describes itself as a multi-version tool with movement and combat checks, and its listed detection coverage also includes world and block activity, packets, and Bedrock-player behavior. The maker says it detects air jumping, flight, and most speed hacks. Folia is listed as a server platform, with compatibility marked beta. The Maven project declares Paper API 1.21.1 and Spigot API 26.1 as provided dependencies, alongside PacketEvents Spigot 2.11.2; FoliaLib and bStats Bukkit are compile dependencies. Its Maven configuration sets Java 21 as the compiler release. The project is at version 0.9. The maker says it began in 2019, was abandoned in 2021, and was revisited in late 2025; the maker also says work proceeds slowly and updates are not pushed daily. Most importantly, the maker warns that the current engine produces many false flags and does not recommend using this version. The repository links to a Discord server for support and describes TruthfulAC as competing with Intave and Grim anti-cheats.
