[FIVEM] HOW TO CHANGE SERVER HUD AND LOADING SCREEN - CREATING A FIVEM SERVER
To begin, you'll need the scripts. Okay, in this case, the links we need are for the HUD clips and loading screen scripts. If you already have these scripts, you can skip ahead a bit. If not, let's teach you how to get them for free. There are various sites offering free clips, but the most reliable one is the FiveM forum. You can find the link in the description. Here, you'll find a plethora of free scripts, both paid and unpaid.
Let's start by downloading a HUD script. Click on the search bar and look for "HUD." Wait for it to load and you'll find several options. Choose one that suits your server. For example, if your server is RP, you might want to use a HUD suitable for RP servers. Select and download the HUD script.
Next, let's find a loading screen. Search for "loading screen" in the search bar again. Scroll down to find various options. Pick one that you like and download it. Once downloaded, drag both the HUD and loading screen scripts to your desktop.
Now, let's rename them. Remove any unnecessary characters from the file names. Then, let's configure the loading screen. Open the HTML file of the loading screen using a text editor like Visual Studio Code. Here, you can customize the text, such as server name, description, and Discord link. You can also add background music by placing an MP3 file in the specified folder.
Next, let's change the server logo. Locate the logo file and edit it using an image editor like Photoshop. Replace it with your desired logo and save the changes.
Now, let's configure the HUD. Open the configuration file and make any necessary adjustments, such as selecting the appropriate version for your server.
Once everything is set up, drag the HUD and loading screen folders into your server's directory, replacing any existing files if prompted.
Now, let's test our modifications. Start your server and connect to it. You should see the changes reflected in the HUD and loading screen.
If you want to further customize the loading screen, you can edit the CSS file to change colors, fonts, etc.
That's it! You've successfully changed your server's HUD and loading screen. Feel free to explore more customization options and experiment with different scripts to enhance your server's experience.
