Creating A Server

This Guide will show the quick and easy way to setup a FiveM server using txAdmin!

Starting Notes

  • make sure to register a free licence key at Cfx.re Keymaster

  • When asked for an IP use the Public IPv4 IP of the server :)

Step 1: Installing The Server

  • Head To the Artifact Download page
  • Click the download with the highest number - see here
  • Open the server.zip you just downloaded.
  • Extract it somewhere you want to store it. We'll pick C:\FXServer\server
  • Open the extracted folder, it should look like this

Step 2: Starting Your Server

  • In the Extacted folder, find FXserver.exe and double click it. -This site should open in your browser, if it does not, open your browser and goto localhost:40120.
  • Make sure the PIN is filled in and then press Link Account.
  • You will then be prompted to log into your Cfx.re account, click Yes, Allow once done.
  • You will then be promted to create a backup password, incase CFX.re auth does not work.

Step 3: Setting Up Your Server

  • Assuming you are now on a menu similar to this, click Next.
  • From Here Choose Popular Template.
  • This will give you a choice of multiple options.
    • CFX Default - A plain server with 0 community resources.
    • QBCore -> An alternative framework to ESX.
    • ESX Legacy -> The offical ESX-Framework Template.
    • ZAP Hosting ESX Pack -> A tweaked ESX Template, maintained by ZAP hosting - not recommended.

For QBCore, ESX Legacy and ZAP Hosting ESX Pack, you will require a database, see here for how to set this up.

  • For this Tutorial, we will be selecting ESX Legacy.
  • Once selected, Press Save and then Head to the Recipe Deployer!

Step 4: Deploying Your Server

  • The Recipe Deployer will take you to an overview of the Recipe selected.
  • By default, these should be correct, so scroll to the bottom and press Next.
  • It will then ask for your Cfx.re licence key.
  • Once Entered, Press Run Recipe.
  • This will start installing your server!
  • once it has finished, click Save & Run Server.
  • you will then be taken to the txAdmin dashboard, and can load into your server!
