In order for your game to render other players you have to know their position, so the game server has to send them to all players.

As an example, for CSGO in the past, the server always sent all player positions from anywhere, so it was possible to create cheats to draw players anywhere in the map. They changed the way it's done, coordinates are only sent when other players are nearly visible, although distant, or close by. This limited the way that wallhacks work, it's not possible to see where players are from far away :)

What needs to be done is reverse engineer the communication protocol. If encryption is made, some kind of key to decrypt has to be somewhere in your game client. Then you can convert 3D coordinates to 2D and even draw a radar on your smartphone if you make an app.
