Every APEX script follows the same install pattern. Once you’ve done it for one, you’ve done it for all of them.

Prerequisites

APEX scripts target ESX Legacy (and ESX 1.x). You should already have es_extended, ox_lib, and oxmysql running before importing any APEX script.

Steps

1

Get the resource

Buy the script on Tebex and download the build from your keymaster / escrow account. APEX uses CFX escrow — keymaster ties the asset to your server license.
2

Drop into resources

Extract the folder into your resources/ directory. The folder name must match the resource name in fxmanifest.lua (already set correctly out of the box).
3

Add to server.cfg

Add ensure apex-<script-name> after es_extended, ox_lib, and oxmysql. APEX scripts that depend on other APEX scripts (for example apex-caretaker-app requires apex-caretaker) declare this in their fxmanifest.lua.
4

Restart the server

On first start, scripts that need a database table create it automatically via oxmysql. There’s no manual SQL import unless a script explicitly ships a sql.sql for items.
5

Edit config and hooks

Open config.lua to set positions, prices, and feature toggles. Open hooks.lua (where present) to wire your notify system, anti-cheat, dispatch, garage, or quest backend.

Boot order

Place APEX scripts after their dependencies.
server.cfg
ensure oxmysql
ensure ox_lib
ensure es_extended
ensure ox_inventory
ensure ox_target
ensure skinchanger
ensure esx_skin
ensure lb-phone
ensure saltychat

# APEX progressbar overrides ox_lib's progress UI; load early
ensure apex-progressbar

# APEX scripts (any order)
ensure apex-faction-bell
ensure apex-aduty
# ...

Items and inventory

Scripts that introduce inventory items list them in their per-script page. For ox_inventory, add the item definitions to resources/[inventory]/ox_inventory/data/items.lua. The script’s config.lua documents which item names it expects (for example caller_item, tablet_robberies, kreissaege).

Verifying the install

After restart apex-<script>, watch the console for:
  • [apex-<script>] DB tables ready (if applicable)
  • No red ERROR lines from fxmanifest.lua
If you see escrow errors at start, the asset wasn’t imported correctly via keymaster.
Ensure you have set the proper cfx license key in your server config or you have restarted the server.
