Cheat Basics FAQ
Where should a beginner start?
Start with What Are Cheats? for a general overview, then move into individual feature guides.
What's the difference between Aimbot and Triggerbot?
Aimbot relates primarily to aim assistance and target selection, while Triggerbot refers primarily to automated firing when configured conditions are met.
What's the difference between ESP and Chams?
ESP is a broad visual-information category. Chams specifically refers to changing or highlighting the appearance of supported character models or objects.
What does DMA mean?
DMA stands for Direct Memory Access. In this context it refers to hardware-based systems using dedicated devices rather than only traditional software architecture.
What does “undetected” mean?
It generally describes a current detection status. It should not be interpreted as a permanent guarantee that software cannot become detectable later.
What is an HWID ban?
An HWID ban is enforcement associated with identifiers linked to a computer or device rather than only one user account.
