The ultimate vehicle hacking experience

A Watch Dogs style hacking device for FiveM. Use the item, aim at a vehicle, lock on, and take control with 27 different hacks.

Every detail has been obsessed over, from the tactile CRT-styled UI and buttery targeting feel to the per-hack screen effects that show up on the victim's side of the screen.

27 Hacks Across 4 Categories

Fight with your brain, not your gun.

Control (11 hacks)

Intel (2 hacks)

• Owner Scan (pulls the real player name from your DB)
• GPS Ping (live tag on the map for a configurable duration, essentially a tracker)

Per-Hack Screen Effects

Anyone inside the hacked vehicle gets a brief full-screen effect so they know they've been compromised, and each hack picks its own vibe. Three variants ship by default:

• Static: RGB chromatic split, scan-line static and tear bars, chaotic analog-TV interference
• No Signal: SMPTE colour-bar "no signal" TV flash with scanlines and occasional strobes, great for intel hacks
• Blackout: CRT power-off stutter collapsing to a thin centre line, made for electrical and engine-kill hacks

Vehicle Targeting

Aim with the camera at a vehicle and lock on with left-click.

• Separate range limits for helicopters and ground vehicles
• Screen-space vehicle outline, corner brackets and a floating arrow marker, each toggleable independently
• HUD shows the vehicle display name and license plate (configurable)

Items & Player UX

Two items ship by default, and both can be renamed or replaced freely via config (id, label, description, image).

• Vehicle Hacking Device: opens the hacking UI when used. Supports reusable or single-use devices with optional device consumption.
• Hack Script: stackable item spent per hack, or swap to cash with CurrencyItem = nil. Configurable consumption and a customizable balance label (SCRIPTS, CREDITS, SIMS, etc.)

Per-Client UI Customization

All preferences persist per player via KVP.

• Panel positions: top-left, top-right, center-left, center-right, bottom-left, bottom-right
• Accent colors: 15 curated presets plus a custom picker with saturation/value square, hue slider and hex input
• Favorites: pin your most-used hacks to a dedicated tab so your go-to abilities are one click away without scrolling the full category list

Peak Performance

The targeting raycast runs asynchronously with per-frame result caching so it never blocks the render loop, and the hacking UI lives entirely in NUI, no native UI thread cost while the menu is open. Outside of active targeting (up to 0.02ms in local testing), the script sits at 0.00ms idle.

Compatibility

Everything routes through a single bridge layer, so adding a new inventory or fuel system is a one-function extension, and I'm always happy to help.

Frameworks (choose one, auto-detected): qb-core, qbx_core, es_extended

Inventories (auto-detected, use whatever you already run): ox_inventory, qb-inventory, ps-inventory, lj-inventory, esx_inventory, codem-inventory, origen_inventory, jaksam_inventory, qs-inventory, qs-inventory-pro, tgiann-inventory

Fuel systems (only needed if Fuel Purge is enabled, auto-detected): ox_fuel, LegacyFuel, lc_fuel, qb-fuel, cdn-fuel

Highly Configurable

Every feature, toggle and value is exposed in the config, and you can browse the full config files on the docs site to see exactly what you're getting. Among the options:

• Targeting range with separate limits for cars and helis
• Server-authoritative cooldowns, per-user and per-vehicle
• Per-hack cost, duration, category restrictions and class restrictions
• Highlight visuals, progress-bar behaviour and screen effects
• Currency settings
• Exempt vehicle models and emergency-fleet detection lists
• Deep config lockdown for owners who want to hardcode the look

Extensive Logging

Built-in logging so you can track who's doing what: Discord (nicely formatted embeds), Fivemerr, FiveManage, Grafana and Loki. A separate logs.lua file provides a simple configuration surface, set up your preferred logging methods and toggle exactly which actions get recorded.

Translations & Localization

Full locales system with German (de) and English (en) included. Adding your own language is straightforward.

There's plenty more packed in, with more additions coming in future updates. I'm sure your players will love this resource.
