Channel System Breakdown

Role-Based Channels

• Custom Channels - Create unlimited channels for factions, businesses, or events

Smart Proximity System

Local chat feels natural with advanced distance mechanics:

• Distance-Based Visibility - Messages fade as players move away from the speaker
• Fading Effects - Gradual opacity changes based on distance for realistic immersion
• Range Configuration - Set custom ranges for whisper, normal, and shout distances

• Optimized Rendering - Only renders visible messages to reduce GPU load
• Smart Memory Management - Automatic cleanup of old messages to prevent memory leaks

Framework Compatibility

Works seamlessly with ESX, QBCore, and standalone configurations. Includes easy-to-use exports and events for integration with other scripts, making it the perfect foundation for your server's communication needs.

Integration Features

• Framework Detection - Automatically detects and configures for ESX, QBCore, or standalone
• Export Functions - Clean API for other scripts to send messages programmatically
• Event System - Trigger events for message sends, receives, and channel changes
• Job Integration - Automatically creates channels for framework jobs

Perfect For

• Serious roleplay servers requiring organized communication channels
• Communities with multiple departments needing separate chat systems
• Servers wanting to replace default FiveM chat with professional alternative
• Administrators needing powerful moderation and logging tools

Installation & Setup

1. Extract the resource to your server's resources folder
2. Configure channels and permissions in config.lua
3. Set up word filters and spam protection thresholds
4. Customize UI theme, colors, and positioning
5. Configure logging settings (file-based or database)
6. Add to server.cfg and restart
7. Test each channel and permission level thoroughly

What Makes It Stand Out

Unlike basic chat replacements, this system understands modern roleplay needs. The proximity-based local chat with fading effects adds realism that basic global chat cannot match. Department channels keep police, EMS, and other jobs organized without cluttering global chat. The comprehensive admin tools mean moderating a 200-player server is as easy as a 20-player one. Smart message batching ensures that even during server events with hundreds of concurrent messages, chat remains responsive and lag-free.

Technical Specifications

• Framework Support: ESX, QBCore, Standalone
• Dependencies: None (fully standalone)
• Database: Optional (for persistent logs)
• Resource Usage: 0.01-0.02ms typical
• Network Usage: Minimal (optimized message batching)
