The ace in Config.Creator.permission — command.pingpongcreator unless you changed it — is not granted to you. Add it to a group you are in and restart the server; aces are read when server.cfg runs.

add_principal identifier.license:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx group.admin

If you renamed the permission, the ace you grant must match Config.Creator.permission exactly.

Ping Pong needs OneSync, ox_lib, oxmysql and pingpong-objects running before it. Check that pingpong-objects is in your resources folder with exactly that name, that every dependency is ensured above qs-pingpong, and that OneSync is enabled on the server.

The database was not imported. Ping Pong does not create its tables: import database/sql.sql and restart. Tables placed before that were never saved and have to be placed again.

The framework started after Ping Pong, so it was not there to be detected — bets move no money and names come from FiveM. Move the framework's ensure above qs-pingpong, or force the mode with Config.Framework = 'esx' (or 'qb').

Your translation lacks some keys, or Config.Locale names a file that does not exist. Both are harmless — English fills the gaps — but check the code is one of the 41 in locales/ and copy any missing keys over from en.json.

That is the spectator zone, drawn because Config.Debug is on — it ships switched on. Set Config.Debug = false and restart.

One of three things:

• Config.UseTarget = true — the prompt is replaced by ox_target options.

• You are more than 2.5 m from the centre of the table (Config.InteractDistance). Stand at one end or along a side.

• You are already in a match.

Tables are only spawned within 30 m (Config.StreamDistance). If you are close and it is still missing, its model failed to load — the F8 console says Model load timeout. Check Config.Creator.model if you changed it.

The placing mode could not load Config.Creator.model within 3 seconds: the name is wrong, or the model is not part of the game or of a streamed resource. Put back `prop_table_tennis` to test.

The placing aim lands on the first surface it meets — a rug or another prop counts. Open the table in the creator, press Reposition, aim at bare floor and correct it with the mouse wheel, 5 cm per step.

They are saved with the table but not applied in this version: matches are free at every table and every mode in Config.Modes is offered. To remove a mode, delete its line from Config.Modes.

Tables on maps are not picked up in this version; Config.AutoDetect and Config.TableModel are not used. Place every table with /pingpongcreator — on top of a map's own table if you like.

The stake is more than the player's cash — bets use cash, not the bank, unless you changed the money functions (Integrations). Against the bot the same message appears when the stake is below Config.Betting.min — the slider starts at No Bet, so a small stake like $50 is refused with the default minimum of $100.

Nobody else is within 15 m of the table — measured from the table, not from you (Config.NearbyPlayerRadius).

The match settings were confirmed for a duel without an opponent picked first. This is what the Play vs Player ox_target option does in this version. Challenge from the [E] menu instead, which shows the player list first — with Config.UseTarget = false.

Each player can have one challenge out and one waiting at a time. Wait for the answer, or for the invitation to expire after 30 seconds.

A duel is being played at that table, or a challenge for it was accepted a moment ago. Wait for it to finish, or use another table.

It could not hit at that moment. The racket is faint — and cannot hit — for half a second at the start of each point and until you move it clear of the ball; after a hit it waits 350 ms (Config.Physics.hitCooldown); and it only hits a ball on its way to you. Pull the racket back and meet the ball again.

Speed and direction come from how the mouse is moving as the racket meets the ball. A still racket only blocks the ball back; flick forward through it for pace and sweep sideways to place it.

The player who accepted the challenge follows the challenger's ball, so a high ping shows as small corrections. Three values tune it:

Config.MpTickMs = 16        -- ms between updates; lower = more updates
Config.MpCorrection = 0.35  -- 0-1; higher follows the challenger's ball more tightly
Config.MpSnapDistance = 0.5 -- metres of drift before the ball jumps into place

Only duels that end with a winner after at least 15 seconds are rated (Config.Leaderboard.minMatchDuration). A duel somebody left, a bot match, or Config.Leaderboard.enabled = false are never rated.

Ping Pong is running standalone — the console says Server framework loaded: standalone. Start your framework before it, as above.
