GZ Beach Detector — A complete treasure hunting experience for the beaches of Los Santos.
I built this script because I wanted prospecting to feel like an actual gameplay loop, not a "press E on a glowing thing" mini-game. Real metal detector prop, directional sonar, cinematic dig animations with skill check, physical chests with slow-mo on legendaries.
On top: 10 XP levels, 7 trophies, 9 daily quests, treasure maps, weekly leaderboard, NPC merchant. Multi-framework: QBCore, QBox, ESX, standalone.
About 6 months of development. It's ready.
