FINAL SCBA – Advanced Breathing Apparatus & SCBA Monitoring

FINAL SCBA is an immersive SCBA system for FiveM fire department roleplay. It combines realistic breathing-air management, smoke and gas protection, visual and acoustic feedback, a dead-man warning system and a complete live SCBA monitoring board for incident commanders.

The system is designed to make interior fire attacks and hazardous environments more realistic while keeping the important information clearly visible for both firefighters and SCBA monitoring personnel.

Features

• Full SCBA gear, mask and breathing-air cylinder system
• Separate usable items for SCBA gear, mask, cylinder and monitoring board
• Realistic cylinder pressure up to 300 bar
• Air consumption based on player activity:
  • Standing
  • Walking
  • Running
• Remaining-air calculation and live pressure display
• Configurable low-pressure and critical-pressure warnings
• Empty-cylinder warning and respiratory effects
• Configurable filling stations for refilling cylinders
• Optional restriction for changing/refilling cylinders while the mask is connected
• Persistent cylinder pressure after reconnects/resource restarts
• Equipped item locking to prevent removing active SCBA equipment from the inventory

Mask & Immersion

• Custom SCBA mask overlay
• Configurable mask blur effect
• Internal breathing sound for the wearer
• External breathing sound audible to nearby players
• Distance-based breathing audio
• Warning, alarm and coughing sounds
• Configurable back-mounted SCBA prop
• Configurable mask prop
• Optional GTA clothing component replacement for male and female characters

Smoke, Fire & Gas Protection

FINAL SCBA can automatically detect dangerous environments without requiring a specific fire resource.

• Detection of nearby GTA/ScriptFire fires
• Detection of larger fire clusters
• Detection of burning and recently burned vehicles
• Configurable smoke persistence after a fire
• Configurable external hazard zones for other fire resources
• Smoke damage when entering hazardous areas without active respiratory protection
• GTA tear gas / BZ gas protection while the mask is connected and usable air remains
• Exports/events for integrating custom hazard zones

Dead-Man Warning & Mayday

• Configurable dead-man warning system
• Pre-alarm after a configurable period without movement
• Full dead-man alarm if the firefighter remains motionless
• Manual Mayday function
• Visual and acoustic emergency indication
• Emergency states are transmitted directly to the SCBA monitoring board

Default keys can be changed in the config:

• X – Mayday
• H – Show/hide SCBA pressure HUD

Live SCBA Monitoring Board

The included monitoring board gives incident command a live overview of all firefighters currently equipped with SCBA.

It includes:

• Live cylinder pressure
• Start pressure
• Used air
• Remaining calculated air time
• Time in operation

• Mayday status
• Dead-man pre-alarm and alarm status
• Ready / active status
• Lowest current cylinder pressure
• Warning and emergency counters

• Persistent incident archive
• Configurable archive history limit
• Incident cannot be closed while firefighters are still actively operating under SCBA

Configuration

The included config.lua is fully editable and can be used to configure, among other things:

• Item names
• Job restriction
