Installing Module

Installing the Module on the Client

NOTE: Client modules are only loaded when you are on the dev branch and have debug mode enabled.

1. Download the latest js-module-v2-windows-client.zip file from the Releases page.

2. Copy the modules folder into your alt:V client directory (the folder where altv.exe is located).

3. Once you start alt:V, a popup will appear, asking whether you want to run unofficial modules. Click "Yes"

Installing the Module on Your Server

NOTE: Your server must be on the latest dev branch for the module to load correctly.

1. Download the latest js-module-v2-windows-server.zip or js-module-v2-linux.zip file from the Releases page.

2. Copy the modules/js-module-v2.* files (for Windows) or libjs-module-v2.so file (for Linux) into your server's modules folder.

3. Copy the libnodev2.dll file (for Windows) or libnodev2.so file (for Linux) into the root folder of your server, where your altv-server.exe (for Windows) or altv-server (for Linux) executable is located.

4. Load the module by adding 'js-module-v2' to the array of modules in your server.toml file.

5. Create a resource with type = "jsv2" and client-type = "jsv2" in resource.toml file.

Alternatively, you can also download the server module from the official alt:V CDN server:

• Windows: https://cdn.alt-mp.com/js-module-v2/dev/x64_win32/update.json

• Linux: https://cdn.alt-mp.com/js-module-v2/dev/x64_linux/update.json
