Next Flashbang – The Most Optimized Flashbang System for FiveM

GitHub: next-flashbang
Weapon Meta Files: next-flashbang-item
Support Available via Discord
Compatibility: ox_inventory (out-of-the-box)

Overview

Next Flashbang is a high-performance, realistic flashbang system for FiveM servers that want tactical, immersive gameplay without sacrificing client or server performance.

Inspired by various games, this script recreates the flashbang effect with:

• Distance-based stun duration
• Blurred, dazed vision
• Reduced look sensitivity
• Disarming mechanics

---

Features

Optimized flashbang detection
Proximity-based effect scaling (closer = longer/more intense)
Camera shake + motion blur + timecycle effects
Optional player disarm
Flashbang entity validation to prevent cheaters from ‘spoofing’ them
Works with any ped/player

---

Installation

1. Download the scripts:

Main Script:
GitHub - next-resources/next-flashbang

Flashbang Weapon Files:
GitHub - next-resources/next-flashbang-item: Required flashbang item to use with next-flashbang

You must install both resources for the system to work correctly.

---

2. Add to your server.cfg

ensure next-flashbang-items
ensure next-flashbang

Nice script bro but can you add like if wearing mask will not get effected by the flash bang

[SlashyFlashy]

Thanks for the question! Unfortunately, since this configuration will not be widely used by all servers using this script, we will not offer a confuguration option for this.

However, we have already provided a function in config/cl_functions.lua that you could use to assess whether or not a player should be able to get flashed.

-- Implement your own logic here. This function is called right before a flashbang will affect them. Cancel it with this function if you want.
function CanBeFlashed(position, distance)
    return true
end

You could change this function to something like this:

-- Cancel flashbang effect if the player is wearing a mask
function CanBeFlashed(position, distance)
    local ped = PlayerPedId()
    local maskDrawable = GetPedDrawableVariation(ped, 1)

    -- If maskDrawable is not 0, the player is wearing a mask
    if maskDrawable ~= 0 then
        return false -- cancel flashbang effect
    end

    return true -- allow flashbang effect
end

Or if you don’t want all masks to be able to block the effect, this:

-- Cancel flashbang if wearing a whitelisted mask
function CanBeFlashed(position, distance)
    local ped = PlayerPedId()
    local maskDrawable = GetPedDrawableVariation(ped, 1)

    local whitelistedMasks = {
        [38] = true, -- gas mask drawable
        [55] = true, -- tactical mask drawable
        [92] = true  -- etc
    }

    if whitelistedMasks[maskDrawable] then
        return false -- cancel flashbang effect
    end

    return true -- allow flashbang effect
end
