How do I install my loading screen on my FiveM server?
How do I make the loading screen appear when joining my gmod server? This question will be answered right here. We made it fairly easy by making a custom video guide, which you can find by clicking on your loading screen on the dashboard and then choosing "Install". Just follow the installation steps and you are done!
How to create a loading screen?
Making a loading screen is fairly easy. Start by logging in with your fivem-lsm account. After that, you will be brought to the Dashboard offering up to four loading screen slots. Now, to create the loading screen, just press one of the pluses and wait for the loading screen to generate. Done! Your Loading Screen has been created and activated with some example server information, rules etc. To edit text and images, simply click on them and type into them like input boxes. Other customization options like background images, colors etc. can be changed by clicking the option buttons on the bottom.
How do I remove the watermark?
You can remove the watermark from any of your loading screens by upgrading to 'Pro' for just $1.99 USD / month. To upgrade, click here.
How to look at my loading screen in the browser?
To look at your loading screen, navigate to the Dashboard first. Now, find the desired loading screen. Right click on the loading screen and choose 'Fullscreen Preview'. The loading screen will now open in your browser.
Why are my loading screens hosted on your server?
Every technology advances as time goes on. Smartphones, TVs and video games get better every year. This is no different for loading screens. Our loading screens evolve as time goes on, meaning new innovations and features will always be added.
If you downloaded your loading screen as a file right now, you would have to redownload and reinstall your loading screen every time a new feature comes out or you want to change a picture, text or staff member.
This results in unnecessary work and server restarts, resulting in a worse experience for your players.
Since your loading screens are hosted on our servers, this means that you install your loading screen just once and every new feature or change will automatically apply to your installed loading screen. This means you have the most modern and up-to-date loading screen on your server at any given time, without having to do any work.
Now you may think that having to fetch a loading screen from a server takes longer than having it locally on the server, and it does. But don't worry, our loading screens are highly optimized and have a incredibly low response time, which means the difference between a server-hosted loading screen and a loading screen on the FiveM server itself is under a second.
