FiveM is the place to be if you can’t wait to get your hands on some new Grand Theft Auto V stuff. But these modifications aren’t conventional files; instead, you download them via a browser extension, such as Chrome or Firefox. The good news is that downloading FiveM mods is not hard. Simply adhere to these steps:
The Process of Downloading FiveM Modifications is Simple
Contrary to popular belief, obtaining mods for FiveM is not as easy as just downloading the file from the internet and selecting “yes” when prompted to install it. Installing the mod into your game directory requires that you first download it. You can proceed after completing that, though.
The basic steps are as follows:
- Save the mod to a location on your hard drive after downloading it from FiveM Mods or another source.
- Locate the downloaded file by opening File Explorer on your computer (Windows Explorer for Windows users) and navigating to its location, which is probably in your downloads folder. When you do a right-click on that file, choose “Extract All.” There should now be two folders titled “fivem-mods-master” next to each other in whatever place holds all of your downloads from our site. You should extract all of the necessary files into their own subfolder within the original folder where you saved them.
- Open Computer > C: > Program Files (x86) now, and if Grand Theft Auto V doesn’t already have an icon there with a shortcut icon next to it, open it first (if not, continue to step 5). Move both folders into Program Files by dragging them onto one another; do not drag them at any time beyond their specific icons! This is what the outcome ought to look like:
- Add “start resource” to server.cfg after installing it on your server (place it in the resources folder).
You Must First Download The Desired Mod
There are many premium and free mods available. While the most widely used mods are typically paid for, there are also some excellent free ones available. The FiveM subreddit is the most incredible resource for moderators. A mod has more features (and flaws) the more you pay for it! If you’re new to modding, we advise starting small with straightforward mods. These will help you become comfortable with the system before you dive into anything more complex, such as the RAGE system in GTA:V Online or DarkRP.
Depending on the kind of mod you are downloading, there may be additional steps that you need to follow
Run the game normally if you are only downloading the single-player mods. It is not necessary to start FiveM using FiveM itself.
But before putting it via FiveM, there are a few more steps to take to download multiplayer mods. First, confirm that FiveM is already correctly installed and operating on your machine. After completing that, select View > Debug Window > Debug Console (XBOX) or press ~ (tilde) on your keyboard to launch the GTA V console. Enter “fivemsvr” here without the quotations, then press the enter, return, or send message buttons according to the kind of controller or mouse/keyboard combo you have connected to your home computer!
Single-Player and Multiplayer Mods are Essentially the Same In Terms of Installation
The sole distinction is that installing and uninstalling them calls for FiveM rather than the built-in editor in Grand Theft Auto V.
Right-click the file you downloaded, choose “open with,” and then choose FiveM to install a multiplayer mod. FiveM will ask you if you want to open the file in the app directly or copy it into your Downloads folder when you open it. Once copied or opened, take the subsequent actions:
- When you’re in the game, click “Mods” in the lower left corner of the screen.
- Look under “User Created Mods” for your mod.
- Select one of those mods by clicking on it; “Installed” or something similar should appear underneath.
A Single-Player Mod Is Simple to Install
The good news is that it’s simple to install a mod for single players. Your only task is to:
- Navigate to the GTA 5 installation folder. You can find this in your “My Documents” folder on a PC or in the system directory on an Xbox One or PlayStation 4. Check out our instructions on where to find this folder if you’re unsure where it is!
- Locate the mod’s installation folder (which should include some files with names like “gta5_script.rpf,” etc.).
- Locate the file you downloaded by opening that folder; it should have an extension like “.RAR,” “.ZIP,” “.7Z,” or something similar (if Windows doesn’t detect it immediately, you can use WinRAR). When you double-click this file, Windows will begin to extract its contents into a distinct directory on the hard disk of your computer. This process may take a little longer than usual. After finishing, select “Program Files” → Rockstar Games → Grand Theft Auto V [GTAV] to return to the main GTA V directory. Before installing the FiveM mods again using the above instructions, ensure there are no leftovers from previous versions. This will ensure that the mods function flawlessly and without any problems at all! Here, we want to select every file from each respective directory, with the exception of Scripts and ScriptHookV!
FiveM Mod Installation
- Get a FiveM script.
- Open a new directory and unpack the data (on your desktop)
- Bring in the.SQL file (if required).
- Establish a connection with the host of your server, upload all script files, and add “start scriptname” to the server.cfg file.
- After you’ve copied all of the files, you may restart (or start) your server and you’re done.
