Another notebook script for Redm, I wrote this script a couple of months ago for the server where I worked, and now I'm sharing it in my store

Key Features

• Immersive Journal UI: Players use a Notebook item to open a full-screen leather journal. A closed-cover view appears first; click (or press Enter/Space) to open the book with a smooth cover animation into a double-page spread. The interface is built for RedM — dark leather textures, handwritten fonts, and ink colors that feel period-correct.
• Writable Pages: Every notebook has its own saved content in the database. Players click a page to write freely, with autosave on edit and a full save when the book is closed. Font style and ink color are stored per page so writing looks the same next time they open it.
• Fonts & Ink Palette: A writing-tools bar sits under the open book with selectable fonts (Manuscript, Calligraphy, Cursive, Lobster Two, Typewriter, Serif) and ink colors (pink, charcoal, blue, carmine, forest green). Instant preview while writing.
• Realistic Page Flip: Navigate with arrow keys or by dragging page corners. Soft page-turn animation with shadows, so flipping through the journal feels physical rather than like a flat menu.
• Tearable Pages: Press Q / E to tear the left or right page (first page is protected). The page is removed from the notebook and the player receives a usable notebook_page inventory item that keeps the original text, font, ink, and page number. Using that item opens a read-only single-page view — perfect for letters, evidence, quests, or RP handoffs.
• Custom Notebook Names: Players can rename their journal from the cover overlay. The name is stored in the database and shown with the notebook.
• Item-Linked Storage: Each physical notebook item is bound via metadata (notebookId) to a database row. First use creates the journal and links it; later uses open the same content. Notebooks can be traded or given away and the writing goes with the item.
• Shared Access: Opening is validated against the item the player is using, so shared or traded notebooks work without breaking ownership RP.
• Admin Helper: /givenb (admin group) instantly gives a notebook for testing or staff tools.
• Multi-Language Ready: English and Spanish locales included. All NUI text, notifications, and prompts are locale-driven through ox_lib.
• Configurable Everything: Item names, max pages, keybinds, on-screen key labels, and debug mode are controlled from a single config.lua. SQL for the notebooks table and VORP inventory items is included.

Requirements

• vorp_core

• vorp_inventory

• oxmysql

• ox_lib

Installation

1. Drop the ys_notebook folder into your resources directory.

2. Add ensure ys_notebook to your server.cfg after all dependencies.

3. Run sql/database.sql (or sql/items.sql for items only) — or let the resource auto-create the notebooks table on first start.

4. Insert the required inventory items (notebook, notebook_page) — included in the SQL files. Restart vorp_inventory so items load.

5. Configure config.lua to your preference (item names, max pages, keys, debug).
