🧠 Usage

✨ Spawning a Balloon

If commands are enabled: /balloon

If using items:

  • Use the xm_balloon item.

📍 Spawning a Backdrop

/backdrop or use the xm_bp_backdrop item.

✊ Popping Balloons

  • Stand near a player with a balloon.

  • Press E (default key: 38)

  • Must have xm_needle item in inventory

📻 Screen Shake and Visual FX

  • Optional screen shake & audio


🧰 Integration

The resource includes automatic integration for QBCore, QBX, and ESX:

No changes are needed unless you're customizing item behavior. Do so in the server/editable.lua.


📫 Server Exports

exports.xmmx_twentyvsone:ToggleBalloon(source)

This export toggles the balloon prop for a player. It handles:

  • Attaching a balloon model to the player's hand

  • Playing a holding animation

  • Syncing visibility to other clients

  • Starting/stopping the idle loop animation

Usage:

exports.xmmx_twentyvsone:ToggleBalloon(source)

You can call this export manually or through item usage.

exports.xmmx_twentyvsone:SpawnBackrop(source)

This export spawns a backdrop object in front of the player and allows them to move/rotate it interactively using configured keys.

Usage:

exports.xmmx_twentyvsone:SpawnBackrop(source)

The player must own the configured BackdropItem to place the prop (unless command mode is enabled).
