What is a GTA RP server?
If you’re new to all this, it can prove to be quite daunting. You need to download the required mods to make it work, find and apply to join servers, and then figure out how to properly play the thing itself. On top of all that, you’ll also come across a bunch of slang terms you may be unfamiliar with. To try and alleviate some of that stress, we’ve put together a handy starters guide to help anyone wanting to join in.
A Grand Theft Auto Roleplay server takes the regular crime inspired personality of the GTA franchise and turns it into a clean slate. Thanks to the installation of a mod, you can spawn into a map populated with dozens of others and play as a cop, shop clerk, or even a criminal.
Most servers host a wide array of options and don’t abide by a specific theme, per se. Typically, each site has their own website where they set out which specific mods to download to join, alongside various forums where you can chat to people who have taken up a similar profession to you.
Some servers are more hardcore than others regarding the amount of immersion they expect you to provide, but most ask you not to break character or engage in senseless violence. In fact, if you do, it’s a good way to earn the ire of those roleplaying as cops.
How to download GTA RP server mods
The installation of a mod is key, but different GTA RP servers will ask you to download different ones. The most popular from what we’ve seen is FiveM. To download it head to their website and follow the steps they have laid out:
- Disable any antivirus before you download FiveM. Some antivirus vendors like Avast, AVG, and others are known to block FiveM procedures, so make sure your antivirus is fully turned off
- Once FiveM is installed, add FiveM to the whitelist/exclusions of your antivirus
- Make sure you have installed and updated GTA V
- Download FiveM off the website
- Run FiveM.exe. If you run the installer in an empty folder, FiveM will install there. Otherwise, it will install in %localappdata%\FiveM
- Start FiveM from your Windows start menu
It should also be noted that while they do ask you to switch off your antivirus, that they are working on a solution. Another option if you don’t want to go through with that download is the RageMP client, which is used by the popular Eclipse Roleplay server.
How to join a GTA RP server
Joining and maintaining your status on a GTA RP server takes some work. Most servers will ask you to fill out an application and read a set of rules – if you’d like an example, TwitchRP’s ruleset is just a click away. Once your application has been accepted you’ll join a queue where you can ascend the priority based on well you follow the rules.
You’ll have to jump through some hoops, but it seems to be a necessary step to stop each server from crashing, or from letting anyone in who would ruin the fun.
