Tunerlaptop v2 (qbus)

Tunerlaptop v2 - Advanced Vehicle Tuning System for ESX

Take control of vehicle customization with Tunerlaptop v2, a comprehensive laptop-based tuning system originally designed for QBCore and professionally converted to ESX. This portable tuning solution allows players to modify neon underglow, headlight colors, and vehicle performance characteristics (speed, braking, handling) through an intuitive laptop interface. Perfect for mechanic roleplay, underground tuning shops, and street racing communities wanting realistic vehicle modification mechanics. The laptop item adds immersive gameplay requiring players to physically possess the tuning device rather than accessing modifications through menus, creating opportunities for theft, rental, or specialized mechanic services.

What's Included

Tunerlaptop v2 provides a complete vehicle customization ecosystem controlled through a portable laptop item (database item name: wayne_laptop). Players obtain the laptop through purchase, mechanic shops, or admin distribution, then use it near vehicles to access the tuning interface. The system includes three major customization categories: neon lighting allowing underglow color selection and pattern configuration, headlight tuning enabling custom headlight colors beyond standard options, and performance modifications adjusting vehicle stats like top speed, acceleration, braking force, and handling characteristics. All modifications persist through server restarts and vehicle respawns, storing customizations to the specific vehicle.

Key Features

• Neon Underglow System - Full RGB color picker for neon lights with multiple pattern modes (static, flashing, fade)
• Custom Headlight Colors - Change headlight tint to any color including pink, blue, green, yellow beyond standard white/xenon
• Performance Tuning - Modify speed, acceleration, braking, and handling stats for custom vehicle behavior
• Physical Laptop Item - Requires wayne_laptop item in inventory to access tuning interface creating immersive mechanic
• Proximity-Based Usage - Must be near vehicle to tune it, preventing remote modifications
• Persistent Modifications - Customizations save to vehicle and persist through server restarts
• ESX Conversion - Originally QBCore script professionally converted to ESX with full functionality
• User-Friendly Interface - Clean NUI design making tuning accessible without complicated menus
• Mechanic Integration - Can be restricted to mechanic job or sold as special item
• Preview System - See modifications in real-time before finalizing changes

Perfect For

• Street racing servers needing vehicle customization depth
• Mechanic shops offering tuning services as specialized business
• Underground garage roleplay with illegal performance modifications
• Car enthusiast communities wanting detailed vehicle personalization
• Servers creating economy around tuning equipment and services

Neon Light Customization

The neon underglow system provides comprehensive control over vehicle lighting aesthetics. Color Selection: Full RGB color picker allows choosing any color imaginable - classic blue and purple for underglow, pink for show cars, green for racing themes, or custom brand colors. Pattern Modes: Static mode keeps lights solid color, flashing mode creates attention-grabbing pulses, fade mode smoothly transitions between colors. Brightness Control: Adjust neon intensity from subtle glow to vibrant illumination. Zone Configuration: Some vehicles support independent control of front, rear, and side neons. The neon system works with all vehicles supporting native neon modifications, automatically detecting which vehicles are compatible.

Performance Tuning System

The performance modification capabilities let players adjust vehicle behavior beyond visual customization. Speed Modifications: Increase top speed for straight-line performance or reduce for handling-focused builds. Acceleration Tuning: Improve 0-60 times and throttle response or balance for fuel efficiency roleplay. Brake Adjustments: Enhance braking force for racing or maintain stock characteristics for realism. Handling Changes: Adjust cornering grip, stability, and steering response for different driving styles. Balanced Approach: The tuning ranges are configured to avoid overpowered vehicles - improvements are noticeable but not game-breaking, maintaining server balance while providing meaningful customization.

Headlight Color System

Custom headlight colors add unique visual identity to vehicles. Color Options: Traditional xenon blue, pink for show cars, green underglow matching, yellow for rally aesthetics, or any custom color via RGB picker. Both Headlights: Modifications apply to both headlights simultaneously for symmetrical appearance. Nighttime Impact: Custom colors are most visible at night or in tunnels, creating striking appearance during evening cruises. Beam Pattern Preserved: Color changes don't affect light output or beam pattern - only the tint changes, maintaining visibility while adding customization.

Laptop Item Mechanics

The physical laptop requirement creates interesting gameplay dynamics. Item Acquisition: Players must obtain wayne_laptop through purchase, finding, or mechanic distribution - it's not freely available. Inventory Management: The laptop takes inventory space, creating choice between carrying tuning capability or other items. Theft Opportunity: Valuable laptop can be stolen from players or vehicles, creating risk/reward for carrying expensive equipment. Business Models: Mechanic shops can rent laptops to customers, charge per use, or offer tuning services using their laptop. Specialization: Some players can specialize as tuners, offering services to those without laptop access.

Installation

1. Extract tunerlaptop-v2 folder to your ESX resources directory
2. Import the SQL file to add the wayne_laptop item to your database
3. Ensure you have es_extended and esx_inventoryhud (or compatible inventory) installed
4. Configure config.lua to set tuning limits and laptop usage restrictions
5. Add 'ensure tunerlaptop-v2' to your server.cfg
6. Restart server and add wayne_laptop items via admin commands or shop

Framework Compatibility

• ✅ ESX - Professionally converted from QBCore with full ESX integration and inventory support
• ❌ QBCore - This is the ESX version; original QBCore version available separately
• ❌ QBOX - ESX-specific, not compatible with QBOX frameworks
• ❌ Standalone - Requires ESX framework for item system and inventory management

Configuration Options

Server administrators have extensive control over tuning parameters and restrictions. Performance Limits: Set maximum tuning values preventing unrealistic vehicle stats - cap speed increases at 10-20% or allow extreme modifications for arcade-style servers. Job Restrictions: Limit laptop usage to mechanic job only, or allow everyone to use if they own the item. Cost System: Configure whether modifications are free or require payment per tuning session. Cooldowns: Set cooldown periods between tuning sessions preventing constant re-tuning. Vehicle Restrictions: Blacklist certain vehicles from performance tuning while allowing cosmetic modifications. Neon Patterns: Enable or disable specific neon modes based on server aesthetic preferences.

Mechanic Business Integration

Tunerlaptop v2 creates new revenue streams for mechanic businesses. Tuning Services: Mechanics with laptops offer customization services, charging fees for modifications. Specialized Garages: Underground tuning shops gain identity as the place to get performance upgrades. Tiered Services: Offer basic tuning (neons/headlights) cheaply while charging premium for performance modifications. Customer Records: Mechanics can track client vehicles and customization history. Repeat Business: Customers return for tuning changes, creating ongoing relationships. The laptop requirement means mechanics need the equipment to offer services, adding investment requirement for starting tuning businesses.

Racing Scene Applications

Street racing communities benefit significantly from the tuning system. Pre-Race Tuning: Racers tune vehicles specifically for track characteristics - maximize speed for highway races, prioritize handling for mountain roads. Custom Builds: Create distinctive racing builds with signature neon colors and performance profiles. Competitive Edge: Tuning provides skill-based advantage - good tuners optimize vehicles better than novices. Show and Shine: Car meet events showcase neon customizations and unique headlight colors. Underground Identity: The tuning scene becomes recognizable aspect of server culture, with known tuners building reputations.

What Makes It Stand Out

Tunerlaptop v2 succeeds through the physical item requirement creating tangible gameplay element rather than abstract menu. Having to obtain, carry, and protect the laptop adds immersion and risk. The combination of cosmetic AND performance tuning makes it comprehensive solution rather than just visual customization. The ESX conversion quality ensures it works as reliably as native ESX scripts rather than feeling like poorly adapted QBCore port. The balanced tuning ranges maintain server fairness while providing meaningful customization - vehicles improve noticeably without becoming unstoppable. The integration potential with mechanic businesses creates economic gameplay beyond simple script usage.
