Documentation
What Essential is, how each tab of the panel works, and where to look when something is not behaving. If you have just bought it and have not been set up yet, start with the Setup Guide.
Last updated: 28 August 2026
Overview
Essential is a FiveM menu with an undetected bypass built on kernel-level methods. That bypass is the product; everything else is built on top of it.
The web panel is the addition. Because the menu can also be driven from this website — on your PC or from your phone — nothing has to be on screen while you play, so a recording, a screen share or someone watching over your shoulder has nothing to catch.
Getting access
Access is handled by hand, one person at a time, and it runs through our Discord from start to finish: you join, open a ticket, pay there, and a staff member installs everything with you on a call. The full walkthrough is in the Setup Guide.
Nobody from Essential will ever ask for your password, and setup never happens outside a ticket in the official Discord. If someone messages you first offering to "set it up", it is not us.
The panel
The panel is the menu itself, embedded on the home page and in your dashboard. It is split into tabs, and some tabs carry more than one section — the caret next to a tab name opens its section list.
Player ESP
Draws the information you pick over other players: box, skeleton, snapline, name, distance, weapon, health and armour bars, and a centre dot. Each element has its own switch and its own colour, and the sliders set thickness and size in game pixels. The preview beside the controls updates as you change them, so you can see exactly what you are turning on.
Vehicle ESP
The same idea for vehicles, plus a lock indicator that shows whether a car is locked before you walk to it.
Lists
Three lists share one tab: Players, Vehicles and Friends. Picking an entry shows its details on the right along with the actions available for it — teleporting to a player, fixing or locking a vehicle, adding or removing a friend. The Friends list opens with nothing selected on purpose, so an action is never one stray click away.
Web radar
A live top-down radar of the players around you, with a range selector and a list of tracked players you can centre the radar on. The feed comes from your game client, so the radar stays empty until FiveM is running and you have joined a server — that is expected, not a fault.
The radar can also be shared: the panel gives you a private link and a list of Discord IDs allowed to open it. Only the accounts you add, plus you, can see it.
Weapon, Vehicle and Player utility
The switches and keybinds for the rest of the menu — recoil and spread control, ammo, vehicle lock, fix, break and pull-driver, godmode, FOV, anti-aim, health and armour boosts, movement and fake lag. Anything with a key next to it can be bound: click the key button and press the key you want.
Configs
Configs are your whole menu saved under a name, in the cloud, up to five slots. Save stores the state you are in now, Load puts it back, Overwrite replaces a slot with your current setup, and Delete frees the slot. Marking one as Default means the panel opens on it the next time you come back.
Friends
The pill in the bottom-right corner of the panel opens your friends list: who is online, what they are playing, incoming and sent requests, and the switches for whether you appear as visible and whether you accept requests at all.
Your account
Your subscription lives on your account, not on a machine. Sign in on the sign-in page with your email and a password of at least 8 characters. "Remember me" keeps you signed in on that browser for 30 days.
Forgot your password? Use "forgot password" on the sign-in page. The link that arrives is single-use and expires after an hour, and asking for a new one invalidates the old. If nothing arrives in a few minutes, check spam before requesting again — repeated requests are rate limited.
Troubleshooting
The radar says "Waiting for FiveM"
That is the radar telling you it has no feed. Launch FiveM, join a server, and it fills in on its own. The Enabled switch on that panel does not turn anything on from the browser — the snapshot has to come from the game.
A config did not come back the way I saved it
Load restores what the slot holds, so if you saved the slot before making a change, that change is not in it. Use Overwrite on the slot to bring it up to date with your current setup.
My default config is not loading
The default is remembered by the browser you set it in. A different browser, a private window, or clearing your site data means the panel opens on its shipped state instead. Set the default again from that browser.
Something looks wrong on this website
Check System Status first to rule out a service issue, then open a ticket in the Discord with what you were doing when it failed.
