EpicGuardPlus

# EpicGuardPlus Enhanced bot protection plugin for Minecraft servers with extended security features. EpicGuardPlus is a maintained fork of (https://github.com/4drian3d/EpicGuard), originally by xxneox, with integrated features from (https://github.com/funkemunky/AntiVPN) by funkemunky. It provides configurable antibot and anti-VPN protection for Paper, Velocity, and Waterfall servers. ## Features - 8+ configurable antibot checks - Geographical country/city blacklist or whitelist - VPN/proxy detection with configurable services and caching - Nickname regex checks - Reconnect verification - Server list ping verification - Client settings packet verification - Lockdown mode during heavy bot attacks - Name similarity detection - Account limit per IP address - SQLite and MySQL database support - Live actionbar attack statistics - Staff alerts when a player is blocked - Custom console commands on detection - Automatic whitelisting for verified players - Console filter to reduce attack log spam - Bedrock prefix whitelisting ## Supported Platforms | Platform | Support | |----------|---------| | Paper and forks | 1.17+; newer Paper builds should be tested before production use | | Velocity | 3.1.0+; newer Velocity 3.x builds should be tested before production use | | Waterfall / BungeeCord | 1.17+; support depends on the proxy build | Requires Java 17 or higher. Only install the jar that matches your platform: - Paper/Purpur/Spigot-compatible server: `EpicGuardPlusPaper-x.x.x.jar` - Velocity proxy: `EpicGuardPlusVelocity-x.x.x.jar` - Waterfall/BungeeCord proxy: `EpicGuardPlusWaterfall-x.x.x.jar` Do not install the Core jar. Core is bundled inside the platform jars. Put the selected jar into your server or proxy `plugins` folder and restart. ## Commands Main command: `/guard` Aliases: `/epicguard`, `/guardpaper`, `/guardvelocity`, `/guardwaterfall` Available commands: - `/guard help` - `/guard reload` - `/guard whitelist <add/remove> <nick/address>` - `/guard blacklist <add/remove> <nick/address>` - `/guard analyze <nick/address>` - `/guard status` - `/guard save` ## Permissions `epicguard.admin` Access to all `/guard` commands and staff alerts. `epicguard.bypass` Bypasses antibot checks and can auto-whitelist the player's IP on join. ## Privacy EpicGuardPlus stores IP addresses and associated nicknames in the configured local database. If proxy/VPN checks are enabled, IP addresses may be sent to the configured proxy detection service. The default service is proxycheck.io. MaxMind GeoLite2 databases may be downloaded for local geolocation checks when configured. The plugin may check this repository for updates.
