Install the Postal Code Map

To install the postal code map into your FiveM server, follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Open Your Server Resource Folder

Navigate to your server’s resource folder. If you installed FiveM on your C drive, it will likely be located there. Otherwise, check your D drive or any other drive where you have installed the server.

Step 2: No Need to Edit Any Files

Once inside the resource folder, locate the map folder. You don’t need to edit any files in this folder. It is ready to be used as is.

Step 3: Put the Downloaded Map into Your Resources Folder

Now, take the downloaded postal code map and place it directly into the resources folder of your server. You can also put it into the maps folder if you prefer.

Step 4: Drag and Drop

To move the map into the desired location, simply drag and drop the map folder into the resources or maps folder. This process is quick and easy.

Step 5: Alternative Location Option

If you want to keep your map folder separate from other resources, you can create a new folder specifically for the map and place it there.

Step 6: Close the Download

Once you have successfully moved the map folder, you can close the download page. You no longer need it for the installation process.

Configure the Server

To configure your server and add the postal code map, follow these steps:

Step 1: Open the server.cfg file

Locate and open the server.cfg file in your FiveM server’s resource folder. This file contains the server configuration settings.

Step 2: Add a New Section for the Map

Add a new section for the map in the server.cfg file. You can do this by using two hashtags to signify a non-code line. This ensures that the server knows it is not a line of code.

Step 3: Add the ‘map’ Line

Inside the new section, add the ‘map’ line followed by the correct name of the map. For example, if the name of the map is “map”, your line should look like this: map map.

Step 4: Delete Conflicting Map Mods

Before saving the server.cfg file, make sure to delete any conflicting map mods that may already be present in your server. This ensures that there are no conflicts or issues when running the postal code map.

Step 5: Save and Close the server.cfg File

After making the necessary changes, save the server.cfg file and close it. Your server is now configured with the postal code map.

Remember, the postal code map enhances the visual appeal of your server and allows you to easily communicate locations to other players using the postal codes. Enjoy exploring and customizing your FiveM server!
