TREW HUD

TREW HUD is one of the earliest fully modular HUD packages adopted by QBCore servers. It offers extensive configuration options and is compatible with multiple frameworks.

Overview

Originally released for ESX, TREW HUD has community-maintained forks for QBCore that expose similar functionality: a modular HUD, voice indicators, radial menus, and vehicle dashboards. It is ideal for servers that want a polished UI but still value open-source flexibility.

Highlighted Modules

Player Stats: Health, armour, hunger, thirst, stress, and stamina bars
Vehicle Dashboard: Speedometer, fuel, engine health, seatbelt, cruise control, and gear display
Compass & Street Info: Direction and street names displayed at the top of the screen
Voice Integration: Works with pma-voice, saltychat, or mumble-voip through configuration toggles
Radial Menu: Optional interaction wheel for emotes, doors, and quick actions

Installation Steps

Download a QBCore-compatible fork of TREW HUD (often named trew_hud_ui or trew-hud-qb).
Place the folder into resources/[standalone]/ or [qb]/ depending on the instructions.
Disable conflicting HUD packages (qb-hud, legacy_hud, etc.).
Add the resource to server.cfg:
```
ensure qb-core
ensure trew_hud_ui
```
Import any SQL provided if the fork stores player preferences.
Restart the server and validate that the HUD loads with no console errors.

Configuration Notes

config.lua contains toggles for each widget. Disable modules you do not need to reduce clutter.
The script exposes language files—edit them to localize UI labels.
Adjust the Config.Metric option to switch between MPH and KPH.
Update radial menu commands to match your server’s emote or vehicle scripts.
If you use a custom stress system, point the HUD to the correct metadata key.

Performance Considerations

TREW HUD relies on NUI updates; ensure clients have hardware acceleration enabled in FiveM for smooth animations.
Lower the refresh interval (Config.UpdateInterval) if you experience stutter on lower-end PCs.
Disable unused modules such as the radial menu when you only want the HUD overlay.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
HUD overlapping other UI	Confirm no other HUD resource is running and adjust anchor positions in the CSS files.
Voice indicator not updating	Double-check the voice integration configuration and ensure the appropriate exports are called.
Speedometer stuck at 0	Verify that `GetVehiclePedIsIn` is returning a valid vehicle and that you installed the required client script dependencies.
Compass jitter	Increase the smoothing value in the configuration or lower the update interval.
