vrs_newspaper leans on vrs_bridge for every framework-specific touchpoint, so it does not need to be patched per framework itself.
Framework detection
Auto-detects QBox, QBCore, or ESX on boot, no config needed.
Target script fallback
Uses
ox_target or qb-target if present, falls back to markers otherwise.Route builder
Capture new depots and delivery points in-game with
/npbuilder.Escrow-safe
config/, locales/, and sql/ ship readable, only gameplay Lua is encrypted.Framework, inventory, and target detection
On boot,vrs_bridge detects the running framework, inventory, target script, and vehicle-key system and reports what it found:
ox_target or qb-target is present it is used automatically; if neither is running, the depot and district interactions fall back to a marker/keybind flow. To pin any of these instead of auto-detecting, edit vrs_bridge’s own config.lua.
Registering the newspaper item
The job throws a real weapon under the hood (aliased ontoWEAPON_ACIDPACKAGE), so it has to be registered with your inventory the same way any throwable weapon would be. For ox_inventory this means an entry in data/weapons.lua, not items.lua, see Installation for the exact snippet.
Depending on the resource
If another resource needsvrs_newspaper running, add it to that resource’s fxmanifest.lua:
fxmanifest.lua
vrs_newspaper itself depends on vrs_bridge v1.3.0+, ensured before it in server.cfg.
Extending delivery points
The depot and every district’s houses live inroutes.lua, editable by hand or captured live with the in-game route builder:
Paste the exported blocks over the tables in
routes.lua to wire a new district into the job.
Escrow boundaries
escrow_ignore keeps config/, locales/, and sql/ readable after upload, everything else in Lua is encrypted. Two things worth knowing if you are integrating with the resource:
Escrow only encrypts Lua
The contents of
html/ ship readable on every escrowed copy. All pay maths and validation live server-side in Lua, and the page only renders what it is handed.vrs_bridge is escrowed separately
It keeps its own
config.lua and detection map open, so it can be retargeted without touching vrs_newspaper.
