Camera Settings

Configuration for the Rear Camera and Security Camera in shared/config.lua. The DashCam has its own dedicated page — see DashCam Settings.

Rear Camera

lua

Config.RearCameraExitKey = 167   -- GTA control ID
Config.CustomRearCamera = {
    -- ["duel"] = {x = 2},
}

Option	Default	Description
Config.RearCameraExitKey	167	GTA control index to exit camera (see FiveM controls)
Config.CustomRearCamera	{}	Per-vehicle X-axis offset overrides

Custom Per-Vehicle Offsets

For addon vehicles where the default rear camera position looks wrong, define an X-axis override:

lua

Config.CustomRearCamera = {
    ["duel"]   = {x = 2},      -- shift camera 2m further back
    ["mymodel"] = {x = 1.5},
}

Keys are vehicle model names (string passed to GetHashKey internally).

Module Toggle

Option	Default	Description
Config.Modules.RearCamera	true	Show rear camera module
Config.DockButtons.rearCamera	true	Show rear camera button on the dock

---

Security Camera

lua

Config.SecurityCamera = {
    enabled = true,
    fov = 70.0,
    minFov = 20.0,
    maxFov = 110.0,
    defaultAngle = "front",
    cameraHeight = 0.6,
    cameraDistance = 0.3,

    filter = "CAMERA_secuirity",
    filterStrength = 1.0,
    noise = 0.15,

    overlay = {
        scanlines = true,
        vignette  = true,
        corners   = true,
        timestamp = true,
        noise     = true,
    },

    recording = {
        enabled = true,
        maxDurationSeconds = 300,
        maxRecordingsPerPlayer = 20,
    },

    jobs = {},
    discordRoles = {},
}

Top-Level Fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
enabled	boolean	true	Master toggle
fov	number	70.0	Default field of view
minFov	number	20.0	Maximum zoom-in (smaller FOV = more zoom)
maxFov	number	110.0	Maximum zoom-out
defaultAngle	string	"front"	One of "front", "rear", "left", "right"
cameraHeight	number	0.6	Meters above vehicle center
cameraDistance	number	0.3	Meters beyond vehicle edge

Visual Filter

lua

filter = "CAMERA_secuirity"
filterStrength = 1.0
noise = 0.15

Option	Type	Description
filter	string | false	GTA timecycle modifier name, or false for no filter
filterStrength	number 0-1	How much of the filter is applied
noise	number 0-1	Engine-side noise (separate from overlay noise)

Available filter names:

• "CAMERA_secuirity" — typical security cam look (recommended)
• "CAMERA_secuirity_FUZZ" — heavier static / interference
• "scanline_cam" — scanline-heavy, retro CCTV
• "scanline_cam_cheap" — cheaper variant of scanline_cam
• false — clean view (no filter)

Info

The names with secuirity are intentionally misspelled — that's how they exist in the GTA V timecycle modifiers. Don't fix the spelling; the script needs the exact native name.

NUI Overlay Effects

Render-on-top effects done in the React UI (separate from the engine filter):

lua

overlay = {
    scanlines = true,    -- horizontal scan lines
    vignette  = true,    -- dark edges around the screen
    corners   = true,    -- corner bracket markers (security cam look)
    timestamp = true,    -- date/time display
    noise     = true,    -- animated static texture
}

Each can be turned on/off independently.

Recording

lua

recording = {
    enabled = true,
    maxDurationSeconds = 300,         -- 5 min hard cap
    maxRecordingsPerPlayer = 20,
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
enabled	boolean	true	Allow recording at all
maxDurationSeconds	number	300	Recording auto-stops at this length
maxRecordingsPerPlayer	number	20	Older recordings are removed from the UI list when this is exceeded

Upload settings (Fivemanage / Discord) are in server/config.lua — see Server Config.

Permissions

lua

jobs = {},
discordRoles = {},

See Permission System.

Module Toggle

Option	Default	Description
Config.Modules.SecurityCamera	true	Show security camera module
Config.SecurityCamera.enabled	true	Same toggle (deeper level)
