🏆 What Server Owners Are Saying
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Players Actually Compliment the Character Selector"
"The cinematic flyover and portrait ped system completely changed how our players feel about the server from the moment they join. We had so many compliments on the character selection screen that it became a selling point for recruitment. The three layout options mean players can customize their experience too."
— Marcus Chen, Server Owner

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Tebex Slots Revenue Without Extra Work"
"The built-in Tebex integration is seamless. I set up the store package in 10 minutes, and now players can buy extra character slots directly. The redeemable code system works flawlessly, and the Discord webhooks keep me informed of every purchase. Best monetization feature I've added to the server."
— Sarah Mitchell, Community Owner
200+ concurrent players • ESX Legacy
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Auto-Detection Saved Me Hours of Setup"
"I expected to spend an hour configuring framework bridges and skin resource compatibility. The auto-detection just worked - it found QBX, detected illenium-appearance, and loaded our qb-houses data without a single config change. Setup was literally import SQL, add to server.cfg, done."
— James Rodriguez, Lead Developer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Housing Integration Is a Game Changer"
"Having owned properties show up directly in the spawn selector cuts down on so much friction for players. They select their apartment as a spawn point instantly instead of typing coordinates or using a separate housing menu. The ps-housing integration was flawless out of the box."
— Alex Thompson, Server Owner
90+ concurrent players • ESX Legacy
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Worth Every Penny for the Polish"
"We switched from a basic multicharacter script and the difference is night and day. The portrait peds, lighting, transitions, and UI layouts make the character selection feel like a proper game feature instead of a necessary evil. Players notice the polish, and that translates to better first impressions."
