Fire
Knock it down.
Every fire is run by the server, so the whole crew fights the same flames. Put it out with attack lines, hydrants, foam and the roof cannon, on air that runs down, then pull the hot spots apart with the axe.

The launch film: one call, from the station bell to the last hot spot, recorded in game.
01The fire
Everyone sees
the same fire.
The server runs every fire, so every player on the street sees the same flames, spreading with the wind and going out for everyone at once.
- Vehicle fires · 10-73
- Brush fires · 10-74
- Structure fires · 10-70
Run by the server
Every fire is a set of burning points the server runs. Everyone on the street sees the same flames in the same places, and the fire goes out for everyone at once.
It fights back
Points heal when you let up and spread with the wind. With Oxide Weather the wind is real and heavy rain slows the spread; without it, each fire gets its own wind.
Three call types
Vehicle fires (10-73) with a locked, burning wreck, brush fires (10-74) that stay inside their wildfire zone, and structure fires (10-70) that move through a building.
Calls come in on their own
A call generator with on-duty minimums and a cap on burning calls. The station bell rings, and with a phone resource every firefighter on duty gets a page.
Three difficulties
Casual, Standard and Realistic change how strong fires are, how fast they spread and whether knocked-down points smoulder and reignite.
Kind to the frame rate
At most 6 fires burn at once, with up to 35 burning points per fire and 70 across the server.
02Knockdown
Jet. Fog.
Foam.
Real equipment, from apparatus your department owns: each engine carries its own water, foam and hose outlets.
Attack line / jet
The roof cannon
The roof cannon
The driver of the stock firetruk knocks a big fire down from outside, reaching about 45 m. It is the strongest tool on the fireground.
Hydrant line
Hydrants and supply lines
Hydrants never run dry. A supply line keeps an engine's tank full, and pulls loose if the engine drives off. Water comes only from the map's real hydrants.
Attack lines
Take a line off an engine's hose outlets or straight from a hydrant. Jet for reach, fog up close, foam for vehicle fires. The stream falls short as the tank empties.
Foam
Carried in the engine's foam tank. It knocks down burning cars faster than water, and fuel spills that water barely touches.
Extinguishers for anyone
Any player holding a fire extinguisher can help on a small fire, firefighter or not.
03Air
Air is
a clock.
Smoke hurts anyone breathing it without air, and the air on your back runs down while the mask is on.
Breathing air
Head out at half
Breathing air
A mask with an air timer and a backpack every player sees, shaped to the male and the female body. Refill it at the gear room or an apparatus.
Head out at half
At half the air the ring turns amber and tells you to head out. At a third the low-air alarm starts, and anyone within 15 m hears it.
Smoke
Smoke around every burning point darkens the view and costs health without a working mask. With Oxide Medical it builds up as smoke inhalation instead.
Rescue / drag
04Rescue
Get them
clear.
People trapped inside
Structure fires can have one or two casualties on a survival clock: 10 minutes on Standard. Get within 10 m and you are told someone is calling for help.
Get them clear
Carry or drag them 20 m from the fire and out of its smoke. Carries and drags work on downed players too.
Hand them to EMS
A rescue sends a 10-52 alert to your medics (the ambulance and ems jobs by default), and a medic takes over their care.
- 10-52 alert to EMS
05Overhaul
Down isn't
out.
Knock a spot down and walk away, and it can flare right back up. The call is over when the fire card turns green.
Overhaul / the axe
Fire out
Hot spots
On Standard and Realistic, knocked-down points smoulder with ash, embers and a glow, and flare back up unless they are soaked.
The axe
A hatchet, battle axe or stone hatchet pulls a hot spot apart for good.
The fire card
Points for knockdowns, assists and putting the fire out, and deductions for mistakes. Feedback only: never paid, and it can be switched off.
06The department
Built
in game.
Behind every call is a department you build with /fire admin, not in config files: stations, ranks, uniforms, loadouts and the places fires break out.
The gear room
/fire admin / incident sites
/fire admin
Departments, grades, salaries, badges, stations, apparatus bays, uniforms, loadouts, radio channels, incident sites and wildfire zones, with a setup checklist per department.
Stations
Clock-in points, personal lockers, a gear room, a call board with GPS to the fire and a management desk, each placed in the world with a live preview.
Uniforms and the gear room
A uniform builder that owns only the clothing slots you choose, and loadouts paid by the treasury or by the firefighter.
Hiring
Through /fire hire, a job offer from the boss desktop, or a change to the player's framework job. Badge numbers are given automatically.
The incident editor
Fly round a building and place its fire points and victim spots, or the spot for a burning wreck, and see exactly where a call will put them. Problems are flagged before you save.
Wildfire zones
Mark the corners of the areas where brush fires start and spread. With Oxide Weather, lightning can start a brush fire inside one.
07Apparatus
Every engine
is a unit.
The department owns its fleet. Each unit carries its class's water and foam, hose outlets, spare air and equipment compartment, and stays where it was left.
| Class | Water | Foam | Hose outlets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine | 3000 L | 200 L | 3 |
| Ladder | 1000 L | — | 2 |
| Rescue | — | — | — |
| Chief | — | — | — |
| Brush | 1500 L | 100 L | 2 |
Class defaults; a catalog entry or a unit can carry its own numbers
A real fleet
Bought from a catalog with treasury money and taken out of a station bay with keys and fuel set up. Each unit keeps its fuel, damage and water.
Kept in the world
A unit stays where it was left, even through a server restart. It is written off only when the server itself sees it wrecked or sunk.
Your own fire vehicles
The catalog ships the stock firetruk engine and lguard chief car. Add yours as a car, bike, quad, boat, helicopter or plane, with hose outlets placed for add-on trucks.
08Treasury and payroll
Buys the engines.
Pays the crew.
Bosses run the department from a desktop: who is on the roster, what the treasury holds, and what it buys.
The boss desktop
Treasury
Department money buys the apparatus and pays the crew. With a banking resource, it is a real job bank account, and it never goes below zero.
Payroll
Salaries on an interval, every 15 minutes by default. When the treasury runs dry, unpaid wages are kept as back pay.
One desktop
Roster, treasury, payroll, fleet, gear room, uniforms and the department in windows. With Oxide Tablet it also opens as the Fire Command app.
09Radio channels
Oxide Radio includedOne department.
One channel.
Oxide Radio ships alongside Oxide Fire. Set up the department's channels in /fire admin, and firefighters are on the right one the moment they clock in.
- Frequency
- Label
- Minimum rank
- On duty only
- Default at clock-in
Department channels
Numbered channels, each with a label, a minimum rank and an optional on-duty requirement. Only that department's firefighters can tune in.
Tuned at clock-in
Mark one channel as the default, and every firefighter is tuned to it when they clock in.
Kept in step
Renaming or deleting a department updates its channels at once. Frequencies are unique, so two departments never share one by accident.
10For owners and developers
Tune it live.
Wire it in.
Change how the department runs without a restart, and connect the rest of your server through optional resources and exports.
Settings applied live
/fire settings is a searchable editor with Basic and Advanced tabs. Changes are saved to the database and apply at once, with no restart. Fire, hose and tool tuning stays in shared/config.lua.
Works with Oxide HUD
With the free Oxide HUD, players move or hide the firefighting panels with /hud, and the panels take the server's accent colour.
ESX job sync
Optional: departments and grades appear in ESX's jobs tables without editing them by hand.
Translatable
Every panel, notification, command and target label reads from locales/*.json.
Works better with
- Oxide DispatchFire call alerts on the dispatch board that close themselves when the fire is out.
- Oxide WeatherReal wind and rain that steer and slow fires, and lightning that starts brush fires.
- Oxide EMSMedics get the 10-52 rescue alert and take over the casualties.
- Oxide MedicalSmoke inhalation that builds in smoke and clears in clean air.
- Oxide PhonePage-outs: every firefighter on duty gets a phone notification for each new call.
- Oxide BankingDepartment treasuries held in real job bank accounts.
All optional. Other dispatch, phone and banking resources that o-link supports work too
For developers
Start a call from any script.
Server exports start and clear fires, start calls exactly as the generator does, report lightning, and read stats and settings, with documented events and state bags beside them.
Exports & API ↗-- A structure fire at incident site 4 (set up in /fire admin)
local id, why = exports['oxide-fire']:StartCall('structure', { siteId = 4 })
-- A brush fire somewhere inside wildfire zone 2
local id2 = exports['oxide-fire']:StartCall('brush', { zoneId = 2 })From the exports reference: the call raises its alert, rings the station bell and goes on the call board.
11Before you install
What it needs.
- 01
Buy it here
Tebex asks you to log in with your Cfx.re account at checkout. Oxide Radio ships alongside.
- 02
Download it
Oxide Fire and Oxide Radio appear in your assets on the Cfx.re Portal.
Open your Portal assets ↗ - 03
Add the job and the item
Add a fire job to your framework and register the scba item. The install guides have ready-made entries for each framework.
- 04
Restart and build
Restart the whole server once for the streamed hose and SCBA models, then run /fire admin to build your department.
Requirements
- ox_lib
- oxmysql
- o-link 1.12.1 or newer
- In practice, a target, an inventory and a clothing resource that o-link supports
Included
- Oxide Fire
- Oxide Radio, for department radio channels
Frameworks
- QBCore
- Qbox (qbx_core)
- ESX, with an inventory o-link supports instead of ESX's built-in one
- All framework interaction goes through o-link
Database
Fourteen tables plus the shared oxide_settings table, created on first start. There is nothing to import; the database user needs permission to create tables.
Code delivery
Escrow protected through Cfx.re asset escrow. shared/config.lua, shared/config/*.lua, locales/*.json, sql/*.sql and itemimages/*.lua are open.
Frontend
Vue 3, Vite and Tailwind CSS for every panel and the firefighting HUDs. The UI ships pre-built: no build step.
Is Oxide Radio included?
Yes. Oxide Radio ships alongside Oxide Fire, as it does with Oxide Police and Oxide EMS, and both are added to your Cfx.re Portal assets. Start oxide-radio with it and set up the channels in /fire admin → Radio.
Which frameworks does it run on?
QBCore, Qbox and ESX, through o-link 1.12.1 or newer. None of the three ships a fire job, so you add one; each framework's install guide has a ready-made entry.
Do I need Oxide Dispatch, Oxide Weather or Oxide EMS?
No, they are optional. Without a dispatch resource, firefighters still get a notification and a map blip for each call. Without a weather resource, each fire gets its own wind. Without an EMS job, a rescued casualty is taken away after 5 minutes.
Which fire trucks does it use?
The catalog ships GTA's own firetruk engine and lguard chief car. Add the fire vehicles installed on your server in /fire settings, and place the hose outlets of add-on trucks in /fire admin.
Do calls start on their own?
Yes, once an admin has set up incident sites or wildfire zones in /fire admin, and while enough firefighters are on duty (2 by default). Admins can also start a call straight away.
Are firefighters paid per fire?
No. Points on the fire card are feedback only and are never paid. Firefighters are paid their grade's salary on an interval while on duty, from the department treasury by default.
