Customizing the Loading Screen

Once you have installed the FiveM Loading Screen, you can customize it to make it unique to your server. Here are some steps to help you get started:

Modify the Server Name

To modify the server name that appears on the loading screen, you will need to make changes in the CSS file. Open the file located in the “style” folder and use the search function (Ctrl+F) to find the line containing “NC”. Replace “NC” with your server name in a short format, such as “GTA 6”. Save the file to apply the changes.

Selecting a Logo Image

Choosing a logo image is an important part of customizing the loading screen. It’s recommended to use an image without a background for a cleaner look. Consider selecting an image that represents your server or the theme of your server.

Replacing the Default Logo

To replace the default logo with your own image, navigate to the “media” folder and locate the logo file. Replace the file with your chosen logo, making sure to rename it to match the existing logo name. This will ensure that the new logo is displayed correctly on the loading screen.

Customizing the Icon Section

The icon section of the loading screen can be customized to your liking. For example, you can replace the default Instagram icon with a YouTube icon. To do this, simply replace the image file in the “icon” section of the assets folder. Remember to rename the new image with the same name as the original icon file.

By following these steps, you can customize the loading screen to make it visually appealing and unique to your server. Remember to save your changes and restart your server to see the customized loading screen in action. Enjoy the process of creating an engaging atmosphere for your players!

As you continue to customize your FiveM loading screen, it’s important to update your social media links and staff members to provide the most up-to-date information for your players. Here’s how you can do it:

Adding or Updating Social Media Links

To add or update social media links, open the config file located in the “scripts” folder. In the file, you’ll find a section where you can add your social media links. Simply replace the existing links with your own by copying and pasting the URL. It’s important to maintain the proper formatting in the config file to ensure that the links display correctly on the loading screen.

Adding or Renaming Staff Members

If you have new staff members or need to rename existing ones, you can also do so in the config file. To add a new staff member, copy the line above and paste it on the next line. Make sure to add a comma at the end of the previous line to maintain proper formatting. To rename a staff member, simply replace the existing name with the new name. It’s important to keep the config file organized and properly formatted to ensure that the staff members’ information is displayed correctly on the loading screen.

Adding Images for Staff Members

If you want to add images for your staff members, you can do so by uploading the images to your Discord channel and copying the image link. In the config file, locate the section for staff members and paste the image link next to the staff member’s name. This will ensure that the image is displayed correctly next to the staff member’s information on the loading screen. Remember to use the proper image link and maintain the formatting in the config file.

Maintaining Proper Formatting in the Config File

It’s crucial to maintain proper formatting in the config file to ensure that all the information on the loading screen is displayed correctly. Make sure to use commas, quotation marks, and line breaks as needed. Double-check your changes in the config file to avoid any errors or formatting issues that may affect the loading screen’s appearance.

By updating your social media links and staff members, you can provide your players with the most accurate and relevant information on your FiveM loading screen. Remember to maintain proper formatting in the config file to ensure that all the changes are displayed correctly. Enjoy adding your personal touch to the loading screen and creating an engaging experience for your players!

Selecting a Copyright-Free Video

When selecting a video, consider using copyright-free content. This ensures that you don’t run into any legal issues and allows you to freely use the video as part of your loading screen. Websites like YouTube and Vimeo have sections dedicated to copyright-free videos that you can explore.

Copying and Pasting the YouTube Video Link

Once you have chosen the video you want to use, click on the share button below the video player. From the options that appear, select “Embed”. This will provide you with the embed code for the video.

Copy the link provided in the embed code. It should start with “https://www.youtube.com/embed/”. Make sure to copy the entire link as we will need it to integrate the customization.

Integrating the Customization into the QB Core Base

Open the index file of the customized loading screen folder in a text editor like VS Code. Look for the section that contains the YouTube video link. It should be clearly marked with instructions.
