FiveM Anticheat Updates 2026: What FairShieldAC Shipped

FairShieldAC's public changelog records 37 dated FiveM anticheat updates in 2026, published on 34 separate days between 2 January and 3 September, with at least one entry in every month so far. The biggest 2026 additions were anti executor and resource-injection protections, anti spoofer and anti VPN, Anti Crasher modules and a player lookup system; the biggest removals were Block ESP, Block Aimbot and Block Silent Aim in July.

Everything below comes from the FairShieldAC changelog, last updated on 3 September 2026. This post does not re-explain what a FiveM anticheat actually does and how detection works, and cheat menu names are replaced with what each protection guards against. FairShieldAC publishes this blog, so treat this as a vendor's summary of its own record; every date can be checked against the changelog.

How often FairShieldAC shipped FiveM anticheat updates in 2026

January was the busiest month, with 10 entries on 8 dates, followed by May with 7. Every other month has between 1 and 4. The median gap between release dates is five days, and releases cluster: 23 to 24 and 29 to 30 January, 30 April to 11 May, 28 to 29 May, 10 to 11 July, and 23 August to 3 September.

The two longest gaps both run 33 days, from 15 February to 20 March and from 21 July to 23 August. The fair reading is a product that ships in bursts, with occasional month-long pauses. No 2026 entry carries a version number, only a date.

This page will not rank vendors. If you are still choosing, read how the best FiveM anticheat options compare in 2026 first. Below are the new FiveM anticheat detections, fixes and removals, by theme.

Noclip, freecam and movement protections

• 12 and 19 Jan: freecam v2 and a freecam blocker; a coordinate whitelist for anti teleport; a freecam false-ban fix.
• 20 Mar: anti no-ragdoll added; anti speedhack and anti invisible improved.
• 28 Mar to 20 Apr: noclip, freecam and speedhack protections aimed at specific commercial menus, including a noclip method covering a known bypass; anti speedhack and anti no-ragdoll rebuilt.
• 9 to 28 May: more anti noclip and anti freecam methods; fixes for false freecam bans and a menu-specific noclip protection.
• 5 and 20 Jun: anti freecam whitelist improved ("support now vectors 3/4"); Anti Shift Boost and a super-jump protection added.
• 10 Jul: noclip and freecam protections extended to more menus; spoofed freecam detection improved.
• 3 Sep: a noclip false ban on custom maps fixed, and a menu-specific noclip protection listed as Added, as it also was on 18 April. The log does not say why.

Weapon, vehicle and entity spawn protections

• 2 and 6 Jan: anti car shooting protection covering several cheat menus; two more entity-blocking methods; weapon blacklist, car shooting and give weapon fixes.
• 23 Jan and 28 Mar: anti spoofed weapon #1 and #2 and anti give weapon #1, then Anti Spoof Weapon #1 to #5, #7 and #8 (no #6 is listed) and Anti Weapon Spawner.
• 4 and 18 Apr: anti vehicle spawn; menu-specific vehicle spawn, ped spawn and "train cage" protections; a vehicle spawn script whitelist.

• 20 Jun: Anti License Plate Change, plus Anti Full Kit (no description given).
• 10 and 21 Jul: vehicle spawn improved, then ped/vehicle spawn improved ("patched new method").

Aimbot, silent aim and ESP: added, then partly removed

After anti aimbot fixes on 12 and 19 January, aimbot, silent aim and ESP blockers covering several commercial menus were added on 23 January. Block Aimbot was improved on 4 May, and a new Anti Aimbot arrived on 12 June, with video recording of caught players marked "coming soon". No later entry records that recording as shipped.

On 10 and 11 July, Block ESP, Block Aimbot and Block Silent Aim were removed (reasons below). The 2025 log separately lists Anti Silent Aim and Anti WallHack modules added on 20 December 2025, and no 2026 entry removes either by name. The defensive concepts are covered in how silent aim and ESP are caught.

Anti godmode was fixed on 12 January, listed as Added on 30 April and improved on 11 July.

Executor, injection, crasher and exploit protections

• 2 Jan: injection blocked on the monitor script, tagged TX in the log; txAdmin's in-game resource runs under the monitor name. Also an anti trigger fix.
• 6 Jan: Anti Explosion Spam added.
• 23 Jan to 7 Feb: anti executor #1 and #2 added, with #1 improved three more times, including a false-ban fix; anti threads stop added, then fixed the same day to be "more merciful".
• 20 and 28 Mar: Anti InputBox, Anti Voice Exploits and Anti Chat Exploit.
• 30 Apr and 12 Jun: anti trigger config options, then a config-loading fix; the 12 June entry also added whitelist ACE permissions.
• 9 May and 23 Aug: Anti Resource Injection, listed as Added on both dates, plus instant-ban detections for named commercial menus, executors and one spoofer.
• 28 May: a patch aimed at one commercial executor.
• 10 Jul: Anti Crasher modules added; anti trigger detection improved.

The changelog names the Anti Crasher modules and nothing more. For what a crasher is, read the crasher explainer; executor entries relate to Lua executor protection.

Spoofer, VPN and player lookup updates

• 7 Feb: anti spoofer, anti VPN, and user profile dependencies for Discord, Steam and Cfx.
• 1 and 4 May: a Discord bot /check command for whether a user is in cheating servers, with that membership and a risk level added to ban details; more anti spoofer methods.
• 28 and 29 May: a /history bot command and a new Cheaters Lookup website.
• 10 and 11 Jul: a User Lookup page in the web panel, and Trust Score (Beta), with no details published.
• 31 Aug: the Lookup Tool improved.

Lookup is a manual pre-screen that admins run, covered in the Members Lookup guide. For identifier bans, see HWID bans explained.

Panel, website, evidence and installer updates

• January: Tebex payment and order ID redeem, 120 fps screen view, fr install and fr uninstall commands (each takes a script name), OCR and dashboard improvements, user management and activity logs pages.
• 7 Feb to 4 Apr: another traffic server; sidebar, authentication and F8 error fixes.
• 18 Apr to 29 May: a new ban embed with images kept longer, a website and web panel redesign, an installer fix for new artifacts, screenshot fixes.
• 10 to 21 Jul: redesigned connection and disconnection logs, client optimization, an Interactive Map.
• 23 Aug to 3 Sep: fr install docs for the latest artifacts, optimized database queries, panel login and auto updater fixes, a performance improvement.

Artifact-related entries tie in with which FiveM artifact to run. Optimization entries are the vendor's own descriptions, so measure the cost with the performance guide. Look up unfamiliar terms in the FiveM anticheat glossary.

What FairShieldAC removed from its FiveM anticheat in 2026

A changelog that only adds things reads like a highlight reel. This one records removals:

• 29 Jan (Notice): features causing false bans removed, to be "updated and restored soon". No later entry records a restoration.
• 4 Apr: Anti Ped Attack removed, "soon back". No return is listed through 3 September.
• 18 Apr and 5 Jun: unspecified outdated detections; the 5 June removal is filed under Improved.
• 12 Jun (filed under Improved): a menu-specific freecam protection, "will return soon". On 23 August it is listed as improved.
• 10 Jul: Block ESP ("outdated") and Block Aimbot ("there is anti aimbot").
• 11 Jul: Block Silent Aim ("we make new one"), with no replacement listed yet.

False-ban fixes appear on 12 and 19 January, 7 February, 11 May, 5 and 12 June, and 3 September; the 29 January notice removed features causing false bans instead. For handling appeals, see false positive causes and fair appeals.

A selection of 2026 entries. The changelog files fixes under Improved, so the Fixed type here is our own grouping by wording.

How to read any FiveM anticheat changelog

Update frequency is easy to promise and hard to check. When you evaluate any FiveM anti cheat, read its changelog for:

• Real dates, so you can measure the gaps yourself.
• Removals, which show whether the vendor admits a module did not hold up.
• False-ban fixes, which show how detections that hit legitimate players get handled.
• Follow-through on items marked coming soon.

Our 2026 anticheat scorecard marks FairShieldAC's vendor liveness as "Partial - changelog is public, cadence varies", and the dates above fit that mark. Whether heuristics survive cheat updates is a separate topic: catching cheaters after cheat updates.
