Substance Effects & Screen-FX Engine

ESX/QB/QBox per-drug consumption-effects engine: screen distortion, audio, movement buffs/debuffs and a server-timed high gated against stacking.

Description

A substance-effects engine for ESX, QBCore or QBox: each drug maps to its own screen postfx, audio cue and movement buff/debuff, with a server-timed high window that blocks re-stacking until it expires. Servers sell it as the plug-and-play sensory layer every consumable needs without the usual postfx-stacking exploit.

Known Failure Modes & Corrective Prompt

  • Client-timed high — Claude lets the client start/stop the high; own the window and the cooldown on the server.
  • Postfx never cleared — stop the active AnimpostfxStop before starting a new effect and on expiry, or postfx stack permanently.
  • Move rate stuck — drive the duration from the server and restore the move rate to 1.0 on expiry so a buff can't persist.

Corrective re-prompt: "Track each player's high-expiry timestamp on the server, reject fx:request while still high, send the duration to the client, and have the client stop the previous postfx before starting a new one and restore the move rate when it expires."

Framework Integration

  • ESX: local ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject(); trigger fx:request from your ESX.RegisterUsableItem consume callback.
  • QBCore: local QBCore = exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject(); wire fx:request into QBCore.Functions.CreateUseableItem.
  • QBox: use exports.qbx_core and register the consumable through exports.ox_inventory item-use hooks.

Profit Potential

$150–$2000/mo on Tebex (expected ~$500). [INFERRED] within the $50-389 script band against the signal-scraper tebex_snapshot corpus (n=100, median seller $11.85K/mo), set for a stable standard-pattern FX niche.

Trend Signal

→ stable — corpus: Per-drug screen-FX via statebags is a standard pattern across shipped drug scripts.

Sales Angle

Position as the plug-and-play sensory layer every consumable needs — distinct FX per substance and a server-owned high window that kills the stacking exploit competitors leave open. Recommended Tebex price $129.
