How to setup a FiveM server on your VPS (Linux)
FiveM is a modification for Grand Theft Auto V enabling you to play multiplayer on customized dedicated servers, powered by Cfx.re. In this article, we will teach you how to setup your own FiveM server on a Linux VPS.
Downloading FiveM Server Artifact
- Head over to the Linux FiveM server artifacts page. You can either click on the latest recommended button OR select the latest version. However, if you would like to have the latest version of TXAdmin for your server, please select the
6230
artifact version. In this case, we will download the latest version.
- Right click the artifact download link and click "Copy Link". Now head over to your linux VPS and type in the following command:
wget <link>
. In our case, the command we will use iswget
https://runtime.fivem.net/artifacts/fivem/build_proot_linux/master/6352-493a89d898190a3015769ed6a07068d5752bd548/fx.tar.xz
.
- Now type the following command
mkdir fivem
. This will create thefivem
directory. Now move the file we just downloaded into the folder by using themv
command. In this case, the command we will use ismv fx.tar.xz fivem
. Then, head into the directory usingcd fivem/
- Now extract the file by using the
tar command
. In this case, the command istar -xvf fx.tar.xz
.
- We will need to set the ./run.sh script as an executable. To do this, run the command
chmod +x ./run.sh
- Lastly, simply run the
./run.sh
script in the terminal.
Accessing TXAdmin
- Head over to the TXAdmin dashboard by entering the IP of your VPS followed by the port
40120
. This is the default port for TXAdmin. For example1.2.3.4:40120
.
- Enter the PIN that shows up in the console of the VPS, like so.
- Follow the steps on TXAdmin, and your done!
