Question 1

What is BlackGuard?

Accepted Answer

BlackGuard is an AI-powered anti-cheat for FiveM. It runs as a standard server-side resource with real-time detection across 6 categories — covering aimbot and aim assist, speed hacks, resource injection, teleport, impossible movement, and economy exploits. Detection happens server-side with no client-side modifications or kernel-level access. A behavioral AI layer and a vision AI layer surface additional suspicious activity for your team to review — never auto-banned.

Question 2

How does BlackGuard detect cheats?

Accepted Answer

BlackGuard uses three layers: a rule-based engine catches physically-impossible behavior in real time and auto-bans on clear violations; a behavioral AI layer learns what normal play looks like and flags players who don't fit; and a vision AI layer examines what a player is actually seeing to spot visual cheats like ESP overlays. Behavioral and vision AI results are flagged for your team to review — a human always confirms before any action is taken on uncertain cases.

Question 3

Will BlackGuard cause lag or FPS drops?

Accepted Answer

No. All detections run server-side only — there is no client-side component, so player FPS is entirely unaffected. The resource is designed to be lightweight so your server's performance stays flat.

Question 4

How long does setup take?

Accepted Answer

Setup is minimal: drop the resource folder into your server, add three lines to server.cfg, ensure ox_lib and oxmysql are running, then restart. Most server owners are up and running in under five minutes. Default thresholds work for the majority of servers out of the box — fine-tune from the cloud panel later if needed.

Question 5

Is there a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every plan includes a 7-day free trial. Your card is required to start (to prevent abuse), but you are charged $0 today. Your first billing charge runs on day 7 unless you cancel before then. You can cancel anytime from the panel before the trial ends. There is no 'no credit card required' option — the trial captures the card at signup.

Question 6

Can I use BlackGuard on multiple servers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Starter is sized for a single server, Pro and Elite for larger single-server communities, and Network covers multiple servers under one subscription. Each license is bound to your cfx.re endpoint. You can transfer a license to a new server anytime from the panel.

Question 7

Does it work with ESX, QBCore, and other frameworks?

Accepted Answer

Yes — ESX, QBCore, QBox, vRP, and standalone setups are all officially supported. Framework-specific allowances ship enabled by default. Teleport functions used by your admin scripts won't trigger detections when ACE permissions are configured.

Question 8

What happens if my subscription expires?

Accepted Answer

If your subscription expires, your server will lose active protection but all your settings, ban lists, and configuration will be preserved. Simply renew your subscription to restore full protection instantly.

Question 9

Do you offer refunds?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on all plans. If you're not satisfied with BlackGuard for any reason, contact our support team within 14 days of purchase for a full refund — no questions asked.
