### Snowflake Studios Docs

Snowflake Studios has two active product lines. This GitBook is the shared documentation hub for both of them:

* **Snowflake Studios Dashboard** - the hosted Discord operations platform at [snowflake-studios.xyz](https://snowflake-studios.xyz/) and [panel.snowflake-studios.xyz](https://panel.snowflake-studios.xyz/).
* **Snowflake Studios FiveM Scripts** - the Tebex script storefront at [snowflake-studios.tebex.io](https://snowflake-studios.tebex.io/) with Free, Escrowed, and Open Source packages.

Use the sections below to jump to the documentation path that matches why you are here.

#### Dashboard modules

### FiveM Scripts and Tebex Store

Start here if you came from the Tebex store, downloaded a free package, purchased an escrowed script, bought the open-source version, or need help installing a FiveM resource.

Tebex store: [snowflake-studios.tebex.io](https://snowflake-studios.tebex.io/)

#### Store categories

* **Free Scripts** - currently includes **Snowflake Killfeed Lite**, a lightweight combat feed for Qbox, QB-Core, and ESX servers.
* **Escrowed Scripts** - currently includes **Snowflake Killfeed**, delivered through CFX Keymaster / Asset Manager with protected core logic and editable configuration.
* **Open Source Scripts** - currently includes **Snowflake Killfeed Full Source**, intended for advanced server owners who need full Lua source access and are comfortable merging updates manually.

#### FiveM setup topics

* **Buying From Tebex** - package categories, checkout expectations, account linking, fulfilment, billing support, and refunds.
* **CFX Keymaster / Asset Manager** - how escrowed package delivery and updates work.
* **Installation** - folder placement, dependency start order, \`server.cfg\`, and ACE permissions.
* **Snowflake Killfeed** - premium/escrowed setup, /killfeedmenu, Discord logs, weapon icons, themes, redzones, and configuration.
* **Snowflake Killfeed Lite** - free script setup, lightweight behavior, framework support, and upgrade path.
* **Escrow vs Open Source** - which package type to choose, what can be edited, and how updates differ.
* **FiveM Troubleshooting** - dependency issues, missing permissions, script start order, framework detection, and support boundaries.
