Ns-bounty-hunter 🤠 — NPC, Sheriff & Player Bounties with a Wanted Ledger

[NativeScripts]

ns-bounty-hunter — Bounty Hunter System for RedM

A complete bounty hunting loop for your RedM server. Outlaws spawn on a timer, sheriffs issue warrants on real players paid from the state treasury, and any player can post a bounty on another. Hunters accept from a paper Wanted Ledger, ride out to a search area, take the target dead or alive, and turn them in for the reward — solo or as a posse.

Requirements

• ns-lib (free) — cross-framework adapter library shared by every Native Scripts release. Install this first.
• One of: VORP or RSG-Core (auto-detected via ns-lib)
• oxmysql — persistence
• object_gizmo — poster placement. It is a FiveM resource; adapt it to RedM first (set game 'rdr3' and add an rdr3_warning line in its fxmanifest).

Features

• Three bounty sources — auto-generated NPC bounties, sheriff warrants paid from the state treasury, and player-posted civilian bounties
• Wanted Ledger (NUI) — book-style list and full Wanted poster with an accepted-stamp animation, opened with a key at sheriff offices and bounty boards
• Real hunt loop — search-area circle on the map, camp / cabin / ambush enemy patterns, fire-proofed target that flees or holds
• Dead or alive — hog-tie and load alive for a bonus, or bring them in dead; alive-only warrants penalize a kill
• Live wanted region — the target’s region lights up red on the map (global or hunter-only), with a last-seen blip fallback
• Co-op posse — invite a crew, set each member’s percentage share, automatic payout split on capture
• Sheriff posters — place persistent wanted posters anywhere with a position gizmo, with per-sheriff limits
• Full persistence — bounties, crimes, posters, capture log and cooldowns saved via oxmysql and restored on restart

Configuration

Everything lives in one open config.lua — crimes and reward amounts, sheriff offices, bounty boards, enemy spawn patterns, capture rules, blips, wanted regions and every on-screen message. Sheriff warrants and civilian bounties can each be toggled on or off.

Config.SheriffJobs        = { 'sheriff', 'deputy', 'marshal' }
Config.MaxGroupSize       = 4              -- posse size
Config.WantedRegionEnabled = true          -- red wanted region on the map
Config.MinCivilianBounty  = 50
Config.MaxCivilianBounty  = 5000
