How to Change the Script Locale

All senor scripts use ox_lib for localization. The active locale is controlled by a single server convar — no file editing required.

How it works

ox_lib loads locale files from the locales/ folder inside each resource. The file to load is determined by the ox:locale convar set on the server.

Available locale files are named by their language code, e.g. en.json, fr.json, de.json.

Setting the locale

In your server.cfg, add the following convar before your ensure statements:

setr ox:locale en

Replace en with the language code matching a file in the locales/ folder of the script.

Verify the locale loaded

Start the server
Check the console — ox_lib will print a warning if the locale file was not found
In-game text (notifications, labels, commands help) should now appear in the selected language

Adding a custom locale

If your language is not included, you can add it yourself:

Copy locales/en.json from the script folder
Rename it to your language code, e.g. locales/pt.json
Translate all the values (keep the keys exactly as-is)
Set setr ox:locale pt in server.cfg

Example locale file structure

{
  "command_help": "Open the redzone admin panel",
  "blip_name": "Red Zone"
}

Each key maps directly to a locale('key') call in the Lua scripts.
