Steady spreads, small deaths: esx_scoreboard and esx_weather keep climbing
A handful of long-running scripts continued steady week-to-week adoption while a few small but visible resources vanished and six new packages reached 100+ servers in their first week.
Adoption remained slow but legible this week: a small group of utilities — led by esx_scoreboard and esx_weather — recorded growth on nearly every day, which is the signal developers should care about. Overall distinct resources rose to 574,368, and the most important moves were steady, multi-day spreads rather than one-off jumps. At the same time two previously used scripts stopped appearing completely and six new resources reached triple-digit server counts in their debut week.
The week in scripts
This week’s headline is continuity: adoption moved, but it moved slowly and in small, repeatable increments. We saw 574,368 distinct scripts across servers (up from 564,181), and the most meaningful signals are the resources that added servers on five or six of the seven daily samples. Those multi-day gains are the rare cases where the weekly number reflects true spread rather than a one-off bundle or restart. The sustained-adoption list is dominated by familiar names — esx_scoreboard (+189), esx_lib (+167) and esx_weather (+182) — plus a cluster of QBX packages (qbx_core, qbx_vehicles, qbx_management, qbx_smallresources) that continue slow, steady penetration among QBX servers. A smaller, high-percentage winner was cfx-nteam-carpoint, which rose from 258 to 400 servers the previous week and added another +142 this week.
There are two visible exits: hg_observe and kq_crashtrace stopped appearing altogether, which is unusual for any script that had measurable deployment across multiple servers. Outside the multi-day growers, several otherwise high-ranked packages showed only minor fluctuation; that is normal and not news. Finally, six new resources reached 100+ servers in their first week — an uncommon level of early exposure and worth watching, but not proof of long-term adoption. In short: slow, steady spreads are the story, a couple of small deaths warrant investigation, and a handful of new packages arrived with enough footprint to deserve follow-up next week.
Sustained adoption
Sustained adoption is the clearest signal we carry forward, and this week that list is compact and readable. esx_scoreboard grew on 6/6 days to 1,468 servers (prev week 1,278), adding +189. Its day-by-day counts (1389→1420→1438→1446→1480→1529→1572) show uninterrupted, incremental additions — the textbook shape of organic spread rather than a single-server bundle. For developers building scoreboards or ESX integrations, that consistency is meaningful: esx_scoreboard’s growth is repeatable across the week and not concentrated in one jump.
esx_weather is the other clear ESX mover: it also grew on 6/6 days and added +182 to reach 1,149 (daily: 1077→1100→1123→1134→1164→1209→1239). The curve is similarly smooth, with steady daily increases and a larger increment late in the week; that pattern is consistent with multiple independent installs deciding to add the resource over several days.
esx_lib added +167 to 3,988 and grew on 6/6 days (daily: 3905→3910→3955→3958→3975→4081→4135). The rises are smaller per day but persistent; libraries often climb this way as dependent packages propagate or as maintainers adopt the canonical lib on an ongoing basis.
QBX-related packages — qbx_core (+159 to 6,092), qbx_vehicles (+140 to 5,886), qbx_management (+138 to 5,094) and qbx_smallresources (+128 to 5,669) — all grew on five of six days with gentle, multi-day increases. Their daily traces include small dips on one sample day (for example qbx_core 6007→5952→6039→6096→6124→6190→6235), which is typical noise from server restarts; the repeated upticks across the rest of the week point to slow, networked adoption within the QBX ecosystem rather than a single bundle.
All scripts gaining servers
| Resource | Servers | Change | Grew | Trajectory |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| prevent_malware | 1,631from 1,436 | +195+13.6% | 4/6 | |
| esx_scoreboard | 1,468from 1,278 | +189+14.8% | 6/6 |
Losing ground
There were few large declines, but the slides we did see are instructive because of their shapes. The resource core lost -100 servers (from 1,173 to 1,073) and did not grow on any sample day (daily: 1145→1109→1095→1064→1050→1038→1010). That is a steady, one-directional fall rather than noise; when a script with measurable adoption falls every day across the week it often reflects coordinated removal, breakage, or a replacement being rolled out. Developers relying on core should at least check changelogs or compatibility notes.
esx_menu_list showed a small net decline (-92 to 9,831) and its daily sequence is jittery (9843→9806→9845→9827→9787→9850→9859), growing on 3/6 days. That pattern reads as sampling noise around a large installed base rather than meaningful uninstallation — the week’s net is small relative to its footprint. Other widely used scripts remained effectively flat; the top-usage table is unchanged in rank order and therefore provides no new signals this week.
Finally, disappearances are more binary and therefore more actionable: hg_observe (last seen 2026-09-19, previously ~19 servers) and kq_crashtrace (last seen 2026-09-18, previously ~12 servers) stopped appearing in our scans. When a resource used across multiple servers vanishes completely in a short window, the likely causes are deprecation, a breaking change, or a rapid migration to an alternative; those are hypotheses to be checked against release notes or maintainers’ announcements.

New arrivals
A small group of brand-new resources reached notable footprints in their first week. Six packages cleared the 100-server mark on first sighting: prompt_pillbox_hospital (first seen 2026-09-26, reached 124 servers), allgamers-scooters_props (first seen 2026-09-21, 123 servers), tgiann-esc-map-assets (first seen 2026-09-21, 109 servers), tgiann-esc-map (first seen 2026-09-22, 105 servers), cfx_gn_bc_panoramadrive_hwpat_script (first seen 2026-09-21, 102 servers), and allgamers-scooters (first seen 2026-09-21, 100 servers). Those are uncommon levels of early exposure; many newly observed resource names are private or single-server, so a six-way group at 100+ is worth attention.
Below the 100 mark there are a few smaller debuts (f15s-sa96 reached 81, tstudio_eveh_animated_1 reached 70, drx_G63 65, drx_Lexus 61) that are normal early-week noise and may never spread beyond their initial hosts. For the six 100+ newcomers, next week will show whether those installations are isolated to a handful of servers or beginning a broader, multi-day spread. Developers evaluating new map assets, vehicle packs or themed prompts should pull these names into a short watchlist.
What to watch
What to watch next week: sustained, multi-day gains remain the most reliable signal of spreading adoption. esx_scoreboard and esx_weather both produced clean 6/6 day growth; if they repeat that pattern they are entering a phase of steady uptake and deserve testing and compatibility checks from integrators. The QBX cluster’s slow, five-day growth pattern suggests platform-wide churn rather than a single push; if qbx_core or qbx_vehicles continues adding servers daily, those are safe targets for complementary tooling.
cfx-nteam-carpoint’s steep percentage rise makes it a special case: it is still small in absolute terms (400 servers) but the week’s continuous gains mean it could be a trending asset among servers that focus on vehicle positioning or route markers — watch its next weekly delta before drawing firm conclusions. Prevent_malware’s +195 (to 1,631) is another item to monitor: its jump has the shape of a security tool gaining attention across multiple installs, but the week’s 4/6 growth days leave room for a bundle-driven interpretation.
For owners: when a dependency like core shows a steady daily decline, investigate immediately — falling every sample day is a stronger signal than one-off dips. For developers releasing new resources, reaching 100+ servers in week one is significant but not definitive; follow-through in week two is what separates a fad from sustained adoption. Finally, keep an eye on the two disappeared resources (hg_observe, kq_crashtrace) — if they were part of larger stacks you depend on, look for replacements or forks that may explain their disappearance.
