Changing Language and Location Settings (Flags) in FiveM

Setting your server’s language makes it easier for players to navigate and enjoy the game in their preferred language. This guide covers two simple ways to update it—through the Nodecraft Control Panel or by adjusting the settings manually. Let's get started!

Using your Control Panel

Note: Be sure that your FiveM server is fully stopped before making any configuration changes or setting updates!

  1. Navigate to the Game Settings tab within your FiveM server’s control panel.

  2. Click on the Server Listing tab to access server configuration options.

Manual Configuration

  1. Navigate to the Server Files tab on the left side of your control panel.

Conclusion
