Version 0.1.0 — First release

Render Detector is a client-side only diagnostic: it scans mod files on your machine and never runs or executes other mods’ code. It only looks for known text/byte patterns in class and shader files, so it’s safe and non-invasive.

Known limitations

  • Some mods may not scan fully if they use unusual classloading or shading.
  • Results are based on static analysis and may not reflect runtime behavior.
  • Renderer‑replacement mods are not fully supported yet.

Planned for future versions

  • Improved scoring accuracy
  • Better detection of renderer replacements
  • More Minecraft versions
  • JSON export for automated analysis
