ESX is the framework the modern FiveM roleplay scene grew up on. ES Extended handed server owners a working economy, a job system, a shared inventory, and a predictable way to bolt new resources onto one player loop, and that head start is why the ESX catalog is still the deepest in FiveM. This category collects 137 releases written against es_extended, from the systems that run your whole server down to the small utilities nobody notices until they break.
An ESX script is anything built to slot into that framework. It pulls money and inventory through exports, validates actions with server callbacks, registers usable items with ESX.RegisterUsableItem, and fires the shared events the rest of your resources already listen for. That is the practical reason to shop ESX as a category instead of hunting piece by piece. A new resource drops into a server already running a hundred ESX scripts and understands society accounts, player metadata, and billing with no custom bridge.
The 137 scripts here cover the full range. A [QB/ESX] Vehicle Shop System gives players a UI to browse, test drive, and buy cars straight against their ESX bank balance. Advanced Crafting wires recipes and ingredients into your inventory so players turn raw items into finished ones at a bench. An 8-Ball Pool / Billiards resource fills the downtime, giving your bars and clubhouses something to do between calls. Different jobs, same framework underneath.
What to look for in ESX Scripts
- ESX Legacy support, stated plainly: the framework split into several branches over the years, so a current script should target ESX Legacy (1.10+), not an abandoned
esx_legacysnapshot. The product page should name the version it was tested on. - Server-side validation on money: anything touching a bank balance, inventory, or vehicle has to check on the server. A vehicle shop that trusts the client for the price hands out a lot of free cars the week it goes live.
resmonunder load: a crafting bench sitting at 0.01ms while empty tells you nothing. Look for numbers taken with players at the bench and the UI open, not a boot screenshot.- Inventory compatibility: ESX servers run ox_inventory, qs-inventory, core_inventory, and the old
esx_inventoryhudin every combination. A good script either targets ox_inventory or ships configurable item handling so you can point it at whatever you run. - Configurable locale and currency: ESX servers are global. A
Config.Currencyfield and real locale files keep the UI from hard-coding$and English into your Spanish or German server. - A config you can actually read: you will edit this file. A 600-line undocumented table turns every future tweak into a spelunking trip.
Compatibility & installation
Everything in this category is built for or compatible with ESX, mostly ESX Legacy. Modern releases use the standard ESX = exports['es_extended']:getSharedObject() pattern, so the install is the usual FiveM flow. Drop the resource into resources, ensure it after es_extended and your inventory in server.cfg, import any SQL the package includes, then edit the config to match your jobs, items, and currency.
A large share of ESX scripts now ship QBCore and Qbox bridges in the same download. Framework detection lives in fxmanifest.lua or a bridge/ folder, and the resource picks its exports based on what is running. If you are on QBCore or Qbox and a script sits in this ESX category, read the description for the bridge note. Plenty run natively on all three, others are ESX-only and need a community conversion. The product page is the source of truth, and we do not tag a script with QBCore or Qbox support unless the developer confirms it.
For anything with usable items, weapons, or stashes, ox_inventory is the pairing we recommend on modern ESX servers. Older inventories still handle most jobs and minigames, though you may have to add item images and database rows by hand.
Why buy from us
Every ESX script here lists its framework version, dependencies, and resmon expectations before you pay, with instant delivery and a license tied to your account so future updates stay yours. You are buying from a store that runs FiveM servers, not a reseller flipping leaks. If a script does not work against the ESX version it claims to support, we will fix it or make it right.
