How To Install qbCore on a FiveM Server <\/p>\n

When you\u2019re ready to bring your FiveM roleplay server to life, choosing the right framework is essential. qbCore has become a favorite in the community because it simplifies setup, is continuously updated, and offers a rich library of free scripts to boost immersion. In this guide you\u2019ll find a clear, step\u2011by\u2011step path for a smooth qbcore installation. <\/p>\n

Overview of qbCore <\/h3>\n

qbCore is a streamlined, open\u2011source framework built specifically for FiveM. It extends the basic server capabilities with easy\u2011to\u2011deploy RP scripts, a modular architecture, and robust admin tools. Whether you\u2019re brand\u2011new or a seasoned operator, qbCore cuts down on configuration headaches and lets you focus on fun gameplay. <\/p>\n

qbcore installation: Step\u2011by\u2011Step Guide <\/h3>\n

1. Prerequisites <\/h4>\n

Before you begin, make sure you have:
\n– A functional FiveM server<\/strong> \u2013 use our Quick Start tutorial if you\u2019re missing one.
\n– Basic server administration knowledge<\/strong> \u2013 ability to edit config files and restart services.
\n– Access to your server\u2019s `resources\/` folder<\/strong> \u2013 usually located in the main server directory.
\n– A plain\u2011text editor<\/strong> such as Notepad++ for editing Lua files. <\/p>\n

These are the only conditions you need; qbCore itself does not require any special software. <\/p>\n

2. Download qbCore <\/h4>\n

Head over to the official repository on GitHub: `https:\/\/github.com\/qbcore-framework`.
\nClick Code \u2192 Download ZIP<\/strong> to grab the latest release.
\nOnce the download finishes, unzip the folder to a temporary location on your computer.
\nNo GitHub account is needed, but signing in can help you stay updated on new releases. <\/p>\n

3. Transfer qbCore into Resources <\/h4>\n

Open your FiveM resources folder.
\nDrag the extracted `qb-core` folder into this directory and leave it untouched \u2013 you\u2019ll never open the compressed ZIP again. <\/p>\n

4. Configure qbCore <\/h4>\n

Navigate to `qb-core\/qb-core\/config.lua`.
\nRight\u2011click and open it with your favorite editor.
\nHere you\u2019ll:
\n– Set the database<\/strong>: paste your connection string under `Config.Database`.
\n– Adjust server identity<\/strong>: change the `Config.ServerName` and `Config.Webhook` values to match your branding.
\n– Choose modules<\/strong>: toggle sections to enable or disable features like job systems or vehicle shops.
\nTake note of the comments in the file for guidance.
\nAfter finishing, save and close the file. <\/p>\n

5. Enable qbCore in Server Config <\/h4>\n

Open `server.cfg` located next to `resources\/`.
\nAppend the following line at the bottom:
\n“`
\nensure qb-core
\n“`
\nThis tells FiveM to load the qb-core resource during startup.
\nSave and close the file. <\/p>\n

6. Restart the Server <\/h4>\n

Gracefully restart your FiveM service \u2013 either from your hosting control panel or by running `exit` in the command prompt.
\nA clean restart closes open connections, clears memory, and ensures the newly added qb-core resource is fully initialized. <\/p>\n

7. Verify the Installation <\/h4>\n

Connect to your server<\/a> with the FiveM client.
\nOpen the console (F8) and type `qb_` commands; the command list that appears proves qbCore is active.
\nYou should also see a \u201cqbCore boot\u201d message in the server log. <\/p>\n

If everything loads without errors, you\u2019ve successfully completed the qbcore installation. <\/p>\n

Adding More Scripts <\/h3>\n

qbCore\u2019s modular nature means you can drop additional script folders into `resources\/` and simply `ensure` them in `server.cfg`.
\nPopular choices include: <\/p>\n

– jobs<\/strong> \u2013 pre\u2011built job scripts for police, EMS, or criminal careers.
\n– shops<\/strong> \u2013 inside\u2011city stores for weapons, cars, and cosmetics.
\n– vehicles<\/strong> \u2013 custom vehicle lists and garage systems.
\nAll scripts are freely available from the qbCore<\/a> GitHub or community forums. <\/p>\n

Example: Adding a Simple Job <\/h4>\n

Download a job script zip, unzip it, move the folder to `resources\/`.
\nAdd `ensure myjob` to `server.cfg`.
\nRestart, then use `setplayerjob myjob` to test. <\/p>\n
