Troubleshooting

Fixes for the problems server owners run into most often.

The targeting still has the old look
  • Check that the ox_target folder on the server is the ox_target Redesigned one. Its fxmanifest.lua description is “ox_target Redesigned by Vyro Production.”
  • Search resources for a second ox_target folder. With two copies, you can’t know which one starts.
  • Restart the whole server after replacing the folder.
The options of other scripts disappeared

ox_target was restarted on its own, and the options other resources gave it went with it. Restart the whole server, or restart those resources after ox_target.

The targeting doesn't follow my ox_lib theme
  • It needs ox_lib Redesigned 1.1.0 or newer.
  • ox_target:theme must be auto, or left out.
  • A player who picked a theme in /oxtarget keeps it. Server, in the Theme row, follows your theme again.
My server.cfg settings do nothing
  • Use setr, not set. Only setr reaches the players.
  • Check the spelling against the settings table, for example ox_target:crosshair.
  • Restart the server after editing server.cfg.
  • A player who saved their own settings in /oxtarget keeps them. Server settings, then Save, brings back yours.
/oxtarget says the server doesn't allow it

ox_target:playerSettings is set to 0. Remove the line, or set it to 1, to let players change their settings.

Keys 1 to 9 don't pick an option
  • They only work once the cursor shows: click while aiming, or use cursor mode. That’s on purpose, so they never clash with an inventory hotbar.
  • Check that Shortcuts 1 to 9 is on in /oxtarget.
People aren't outlined

That’s on purpose: outlining a ped makes the game crash. People get a small marker above their head instead, and vehicles and objects get the outline.

The console says a newer ox_target is out

That’s expected. Keep ox_target Redesigned and wait for its matching update. See Updating.
