Create the SCBA Item for ESX

This page explains how to create and configure the SCBA item for ESX, using the built-in server/sv_utils.lua logic from r_scba.

---

1. Set the SCBA item name in the config

In your SCBA EUP config entry, set the item name:

ItemName = 'scba'

This must match the ESX item name you create in the database.

---

2. Create the item in your ESX database

ESX items are usually stored in the items table.

Run this SQL query:

INSERT INTO items (name, label, weight) VALUES
('scba', 'MSA G1 SCBA', 10);

Notes

• name must be exactly: scba

• label is the display name

• weight depends on your ESX version / weight system

  • If your ESX doesn’t use weight in the DB, remove the weight field from the query.

3. Add the SCBA image

Most ESX inventories load images from:

esx_inventory/html/img/items/

You already have the icon here:

r_scba/scba.png

Copy it to:

esx_inventory/html/img/items/scba.png

The file name must match the item name.
