🌦️ SYNC CUSTOM — Synchronized weather, time & blackout

Watch the presentation video

All players see the same weather and the same time, and your admins control them from a modern panel in one click. Easy to install, server-side secure, and designed to replace vSync and aging weather scripts.

✅ Standalone · ESX · QBCore — no mandatory dependency.

🖥️ ADMIN PANEL

• Clean interface with 3 tabs: Weather, Time and Advanced.
• The panel opens on the current server state: nothing is changed by mistake.
• Live game clock in the header, in blue when time is frozen.
• Position at the center, right or left, and automatic adaptation to small screens (720p).
• Keyboard shortcuts: Enter to apply, Escape to close.
• /weather and /time commands, renamable in the config.

🌦️ WEATHER

• 15 weather types as tiles: clear skies, sunny, neutral, smog, fog, overcast, clouds, clearing, rain, thunderstorm, snow, blizzard, light snow, Christmas and Halloween.
• Smooth transitions between two weather types, with adjustable duration.
• Footprint and tire tracks in the snow with the Christmas weather.
• Blackout mode: turns off all city lights, with an option to keep vehicle headlights on.

🕐 TIME

• Setting down to the minute and 8 quick moments (dawn, morning, noon, afternoon, evening, night, midnight, deep night).
• Option to freeze time.
• Configurable day/night cycle speed.

🔄 AUTOMATIC

• Dynamic weather: the weather changes on its own at the interval of your choice, enabled from the panel.
• Seasonal weather: during chosen months (e.g. snow and Christmas in December), dynamic weather draws from a dedicated list.
• Automatic saving: weather, time, blackout and dynamic weather are kept after a restart.

🔒 PERMISSIONS & SECURITY

• Works right away with FiveM admins (basic ACE permission).
• Access possible via a dedicated ACE, a license list, or automatically detected ESX / QBCore groups.
• All actions are verified server-side, with anti-spam.
• If a player is denied, the console shows their license and the line to add.

🛠️ ADMINISTRATION

• fsync command for the server console, txAdmin and in-game admins: weather, time, freeze, blackout, dynamic, status.
• Discord logs via webhook: who changed what, and when.
• GTA notifications by default, or connected to your system (ox_lib, okokNotify…).
