Quick Install Guide:

1. Download dp-evidencebag from the GitHub link above.
2. Put the dp-evidencebag folder into your server’s resources directory.
3. Add this item to your ox_inventory/data/items.lua:
   lua ['paperbag'] = { -- You can change 'paperbag' if you want label = 'Evidence Bag', weight = 100, stack = true, -- Can players carry multiple empty bags? close = true, description = 'Used to collect and preserve evidence.', -- Make sure you have a paperbag.png in your inventory images folder! image = 'paperbag.png', useable = true, client = { export = 'dp-evidencebag.openEvidenceBag' } },
4. Make sure you have an image named paperbag.png (or whatever you use) in your ox_inventory/web/images folder.
5. Add ensure dp-evidencebag to your server.cfg.
6. Restart your FiveM server.

Easy Configuration (config.lua):

Config = {}

-- Make sure this matches the item name in ox_inventory
Config.EvidenceBagItem = 'paperbag' 

-- How much can each bag hold?
Config.EvidenceBagStorage = {
    slots = 30,     -- Number of different item slots
    weight = 34000  -- Max weight in grams (like ox_inventory uses)
}

-- Set your language ('en' or 'cs', or add your own)
Config.Language = 'en' 

-- Set to true if you need to debug issues
Config.DebugMode = false 

How LEOs Use It in RP:

1. Get the paperbag item (or whatever you named it) – maybe from the police station armoury.
2. Use the item from your inventory (‘F5’ or your inventory key).
3. The evidence bag inventory opens up.
4. Drag items found at the crime scene from your personal inventory into the evidence bag’s inventory window.
5. Note the unique serial number on the bag for your reports!
