QBCore Scripts
QBCore scripts, in short
QBCore scripts are FiveM server resources written to run against QBCore, a GTA V roleplay framework whose core resource is qb-core. They read player state through the QBCore export — citizenid, job, gang, and a money table of cash, bank, and crypto — and commonly depend on companion resources such as qb-target, qb-menu, and oxmysql. Vice Drip resources reach QBCore through one open bridge module (vf_core) rather than binding to qb-core directly.
This hub carries the QBCore-specific parts: the companion-resource dependency surface, the fork-divergence problem that makes “QBCore supported” an ambiguous claim, and what each migration direction actually costs. The catalog below is the same catalog everywhere on this site — what changes per framework is how it reaches you.
What a QBCore install actually depends on.
The dependency surface QBCore resources usually assume
A typical QBCore resource expects qb-core itself, a database layer (oxmysql is now the common choice), and a set of companion resources for interaction and UI — qb-target or a targeting equivalent, qb-menu, qb-input, and an inventory that exposes the item API the script calls. Those companions are the usual reason a QBCore install fails on the first boot: the script is fine, the resource it wanted to talk to is not started, is a different fork, or was replaced by an ox equivalent on your server.
"QBCore" is not one codebase — and that is the real integration risk
Servers running QBCore are frequently running a fork of it, edited over months of live operation. Player metadata keys, job-grade shapes, and money-field handling are exactly the places those edits land. A resource that reads player state directly out of qb-core inherits every one of those edits as a compatibility surface. This is why we route through an adapter instead: there is one file to reconcile with your fork, not a dozen scattered call sites.
How the compatibility adapter is wired
Every Vice Drip resource calls ForgeCore (vf_core), which resolves the framework at start-up and exposes one normalized surface for player identity, job and grade, and money movement. QBCore is reached through a compatibility adapter; Qbox with ox_lib is the native target and ESX Legacy has its own bridge adapter. ForgeCore is free and 100% unescrowed, so the adapter and every line of bridge glue is readable before you install anything paid.
Configuration you will actually touch
The framework does not need to be declared by hand in the normal case — the bridge detects it. What you configure is the resource itself: the config surface ships open and is deliberately capped at a small number of top-level keys, alongside open locales and the public exports API. The escrowed part is core logic only, and the file-level manifest of exactly what that covers publishes with each release.
What each direction costs.
We ship a bridge for all three frameworks, so we have nothing to gain from talking you into a move. These are the shapes of the work, not a recommendation. Longer form in the framework lock-in guide.
Staying on QBCore
The cost that matters is not the framework, it is how many of your resources reach into qb-core internals. Every one that does converts your framework choice into a permanent decision. Audit what you already run before you add more of it.
QBCore → Qbox
This is the shortest of the three moves, because Qbox is a maintained fork of QBCore: the lineage is shared and the core resource is renamed rather than reinvented. The work concentrates in the ox stack — ox_lib for callbacks, menus and notifications, ox_target in place of qb-target — and in resources that hard-code the old core resource name.
QBCore → ESX Legacy
The expensive direction. It is not a rename: player identity moves from a citizen ID to an identifier string, and money moves from a single money table to ESX's named accounts. Anything that wrote rows keyed on one model has to be reconciled to the other. Price the database migration before you price the resources.
What a bridge actually buys you
It does not make migration free — your other resources still have to move. What it removes is our resources from the blast radius: they talk to ForgeCore, ForgeCore talks to whichever framework is running, so a framework change is a config problem for our stack rather than a rewrite.

Eight criteria for a QBCore script.
No vendor scores. We do not run other sellers' code, so rating them would be invented precision — and QBCore's fork diversity means a score that held on one server would not transfer to yours anyway. The criteria transfer; the scores never would.
| Criterion | Why it matters on QBCore | How to test it |
|---|---|---|
| Server authority | Client-decided outcomes are exploitable by anyone who can fire a net event, and QBCore's large resource pool means an exploited pattern spreads across servers quickly. | Ask which side validates the mutation, and whether every net event checks source, permission, rate limit and argument types. |
| Framework support | On QBCore this is the criterion that hides the most: "QBCore supported" says nothing about which fork, which core version, or whether anyone tested it against yours. | Ask for the tested framework and artifact versions per release, and whether the seller supports forked qb-core installs at all. |
| Escrow split | If the framework glue is escrowed, you cannot patch the one file that reconciles a resource with your fork — which is precisely the file a QBCore server needs to touch. | Ask for a file-level manifest, and specifically whether the framework bridge layer ships open. |
| Dependencies | The qb-* companion set is the usual first-boot failure: a script wants qb-target or qb-menu and your server standardized on something else. | Read fxmanifest.lua for declared dependencies, then grep the code for exports of resources you do not run. |
| Data portability | QBCore's player model means most resources write rows keyed on citizenid. Whether you can read and move those rows decides what leaving costs. | Ask for the schema and confirm the tables are readable with plain SQL, not only through escrowed code. |
| Runtime proof | A resmon screenshot is not reproducible. Without method, client spec, player count and date, a performance figure is a marketing number. | Ask what was measured, on what hardware, at what player count, on what date. |
| Support SLA | Fork-related breakage surfaces on your server, not the seller's, so the response window is the only part of support you can hold anyone to. | Ask for first-response and hotfix windows in hours, and what counts as a severity-1. |
| Changelog | QBCore's ecosystem moves; a resource that stopped tracking it will fail quietly rather than loudly. | Look for dated entries and a version string you can compare against the copy you installed. |
Our own answers to all eight, including the unproven rows, are in the Proof Center.
What to verify before buying.
Cfx.re's own platform documentation is the neutral source for how FiveM resources, manifests, dependencies and asset escrow work, and it is where the platform's guidance on installing third-party and paid community resources lives — research what a resource depends on, and take care with paid community assets. Check any seller's claim, ours included, against docs.fivem.net rather than against a store page.
- 01
Read fxmanifest.lua before you install: declared dependencies, the lua54 flag, and which files the manifest lists as escrowed.
- 02
Ask whether the seller tested against stock qb-core or a fork, and which versions — in writing, per release.
- 03
Ask for the escrow manifest at file level before purchase, and confirm the framework bridge layer ships open.
- 04
Ask how any performance figure was measured: method, hardware, player count, date. No method means no measurement.
- 05
Ask what happens to your citizenid-keyed rows if you uninstall, and whether the schema is documented.
- 06
Ask for the support window in hours, then check the changelog's most recent dated entry against it.
- 07
Read the license terms: modification rights, multi-server use, and what happens on a refund.
- 08
Cross-check every technical claim — ours included — against the platform documentation rather than a store page.
QBCore, answered honestly.
Will Vice Drip scripts work on my QBCore server?
They are built to. Every resource reaches QBCore through a compatibility adapter inside ForgeCore (vf_core), our free, fully open bridge module, rather than calling qb-core directly. The honest limit on that answer: the tested framework and artifact version matrix publishes with each release, and no release has shipped yet — no runtime proof is published, so nothing here has been confirmed on a live QBCore server.
Do your resources require qb-target, qb-menu or a specific inventory?
The design intent is to keep hard dependencies minimal and to declare every one of them in the manifest rather than assuming your server runs the same companion set as ours. Because the config surface and the bridge glue ship open, interaction and UI seams are readable and adjustable rather than sealed inside escrowed code. The definitive dependency list for any resource is the fxmanifest that ships with it.
My server runs a heavily modified qb-core fork. Does that break the bridge?
It is the case the adapter exists for. Fork edits usually land in player metadata keys, job-grade shapes, and money handling — so with a direct binding you would reconcile every call site, and with an adapter you reconcile one layer. ForgeCore is unescrowed, so you can read exactly what it expects from your core before you commit to anything. If a fork diverges past the adapter, that is a support case, not a silent failure.
Should I move from QBCore to Qbox?
We ship for both, so we will not pick for you. The useful framing is cost, not preference: QBCore to Qbox is the least painful of the three moves because Qbox is a maintained fork of QBCore, and most of the work sits in the ox stack and in resources that hard-code the old core resource name. The move worth pricing first is not the framework — it is however many of your existing resources bind directly to framework internals.
Can I buy a QBCore script from Vice Drip right now?
No. Nothing in the catalog is cleared to sell — there is no Buy button and no checkout path for any resource on this site. ForgeCore and CityPulse are free and 100% unescrowed; every other entry carries a build status and a planned price that is a target, not a commitment, pending the studio's pricing lock. Verified 2026-09-02.
Status honesty: no runtime proof is published across the portfolio — nothing here has completed its core loop on a live FiveM server, on QBCore or on any other framework, and no resmon figure has been measured. Tested framework and artifact versions publish with each release. Nothing on this page is on sale: no Buy button, no checkout, no purchase path. Planned prices are targets pending the studio pricing lock. No reviews, ratings, install counts or revenue figures are published, and no next-generation Rockstar-title compatibility is claimed.
