Is the 5zig Modded Client Allowed?

[Optiv]

5zig is not a hacking client. It simply just modifies the GUI in game while playing (Some-what like a simplified version of F3 that's always on screen). I use it a lot and was wondering if it was allowed in game.

Here's the link to the mod if you would like to view it.

Yeah but is it allowed?

 

[AtresMortes]

Yes, I believe the mod is allowed. I use it for my PvP servers and it is allowed on there, because it doesn't give advantages or an upper edge in PvP. However, be careful where you download the mod... Some versions of the mod 5zig contain ghost clients, and you will be banned if caught using them. Hope this helped.

How are you going to know whether or not a person is using a ghost client? Private ghost clients make it nearly impossible for it to be detected and I know for a fact the anti-cheat plugin can't detect it because the plugin can't even detect the most common hacks. Seeing how the private ghost client isn't available to the public that means the anti-cheat plugin can't detect it unless you somehow managed to get the code for the client. Unless the ghost client is sloppy made and the person using it is carelessly
with it then I really don't see how you'll find out as staff don't even screenshare.
