Standalone

F5 Boost is fully standalone. It does not depend on QBCore, ESX, QBox or any other framework. It identifies players by their Rockstar license.

Step by Step

1. Download

Get f5_boost from the F5 Studio store or your purchase platform.

2. Folder Structure

Place the resource in your server's resources directory:

Folder structure

resources/
  [f5]/
    f5_boost/
      client/
      server/
      shared/
      html/
      locales/
      config.lua
      fxmanifest.lua
      profiles.sql

3. Server Config

Add to your server.cfg. Make sure your database resource starts before f5_boost:

server.cfg

ensure oxmysql
ensure f5_boost

Database Resource

F5 Boost auto-detects which MySQL resource you're running. It checks in this order: oxmysql, mysql-async, ghmattimysql. You don't need to configure anything, just make sure one of them is started.

4. Database

No manual SQL import needed. The profiles table is created automatically on first startup. The profiles.sql file in the resource folder is just a reference copy of the schema.

5. Verify

Restart your server. You should see these messages in the console:

[f5_boost] MySQL bridge: oxmysql
[f5_boost] Profiles table ready

If you see both lines, you're good to go. Open the menu in-game with the configured key (default: F7).
