ItemESP

ItemESP highlights dropped items and collectible projectiles in the world, making them visible through terrain and at a distance. It is useful for quickly spotting valuable loot on the ground, tracking arrows you have fired, or locating tridents before they despawn.

You can control exactly which items are highlighted using the Filter setting in combination with the Items list — set the filter to Whitelist to show only the items you add, or leave it on Blacklist (the default) to show everything except the items you add. The MaximumDistance setting caps how far away an item can be before it stops being highlighted, helping reduce visual clutter on busy servers. Enable Tracers to draw a line from your camera to each matching entity, similar to the Tracers module.

Three rendering styles are available: Glow applies a soft glow outline, Box draws a 3-D bounding box around each item (with an option to merge boxes that overlap), and Legacy2D renders a flat 2-D marker above each item whose size and vertical position you can fine-tune. You can also pair ItemESP with ItemChams for additional item rendering effects.
