Velton
by Suskese
Velton is a Fabric utility from Suskese that checks for client-side cheat mods on a server, and it is installed on the client.
What it does
Velton is an anti-cheat system built around a handshake. The client mod sends a signal to the server, which the Hand-Shaker component reads to decide whether a connecting player runs a blacklisted cheat client mod. The author describes the check as early-stage, and notes that false detections can still happen.
The mod is used in two parts. Players place the Velton Hand-Shaker client mod in their mods folder, while server owners place the Hand-Shaker plugin in the server mods folder, or on Paper with a plugin folder. The server then either runs the handshake command to add Velton as a required mod or adds it manually in the server configs. Modpack authors who distribute Velton should include Velton Hand-Shaker in the pack. Velton requires Fabric API on the client, and it is published only for Fabric, for 1.21 – 1.21.11 across 12 release versions, under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
