Wait stratch that

So you could delete your server cache, but that means it would get rid of your FiveM data, such as characters, cars, outfits etc. 2nd idea is you might have a antivirus software that might be interfering with joining the server (Reason being it might be corrupted)
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
the problem is that im trynna save those datas ..
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
I see
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
let me see

Third is that you might not have enough storage on the drive you installed FiveM on. Only ideas i can think of as of now
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
should i reinstall it ? and save that file with cars, character etc
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
You could try taking out the cache files and reinstalling FiveM, then replace the new cache with the old ones, if that makes sense.
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
where is that file located ?
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
Only downside for that is stuff will take a while to load for a few times
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
ik its smth small np
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
wherever you installed FiveM in that directory
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
everything is data is to do with the cache files
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

Yes
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

Well no, the ones with cache in them They're the ones you need to save.
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago

rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
Can also do this Saves some extra stuff you might've added to the game Just do the exact same thing as you would do with the cache files too.
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
ye cuz if i copy all the cache data that was a lot of GB and it didnt work the last time i tried
rare-sapphire
rare-sapphire3y ago
Everytime i've done it, its worked fine Not saying you should just go off what works for me though KEKW

That's because the saves were in another folder... Bruh was the correct file/folder, not the cache. A little context: "\kvs" is the vMenu folder that saves all your important in-game saved assets (cars, player customizations, settings, weapons, etc.). Now, try putting the folder/files you previously backed up inside that folder, opening it via Win + R and typing %AppData%\CitizenFX. Just paste it there if u had it saved, and u should have all your contents back. FiveM Application Data is in %localappdata%, it's not the same. @prela.
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
Ohh okkk let me try it i have the kvs folder but when i press Win R and type %AppData&\CitizenFX it was windows can not find
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
My bad Bruh %AppData%\CitizenFX
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
i already have it
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Open the folder; inside u should find a series of files, two can be opened using a common text editor.
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Open the text document (DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING INSIDE OR YOU'LL CORRUPT STUFF). Does it contain any kind of info related to saved assets?
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
yeah
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
In your previous game sesssions, had u saved more than 5 cars?
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
a lot prob like 80 or more
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Then this file just contains recent saves u made since the last FiveM re-install
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
this is the file that i saved from the fivem i uninstalled where i had me stuff
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Isn't there any other similar looking file? (Might appear as LDB files, but they can be opened via notepad)
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
this second one i can open with notepad
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Here it is, u should have your in-game saves... Weird
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
this is the second one btw
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
this is the manifest the last one
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
It actually happened to other users that they weren't allowed to view their saves but those were within a folder in \kvs named "LOST". And it was solved by just copying the LOST files back into the original folder. Never occurred that saved files won't appear on the vMenu even tho they still are inside the kvs folder...
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
LOCK or LOST
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Have u already re-tried pasting your kvs file from this screenshot inside the folder I mentioned before? LOST
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
look what i did i installed fivem i open the file location at app data and i paste the citizenfx folder in there i only did this and i opened the game and it werent saved i only have LOCK as a folder
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
As a file? That's not the same thing and it should be 0 kb
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
it has nothing inside ye it is 0
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
Asking about the issue on the FiveM discord dedicated channel. I'll let u know if they know a solution, since it's weird that you do have the files saved but you won't be able of using the saved assets. And this, shouldn't be happening
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
yeah thats what is suprising me cuz the last time i did it , it worked and now its not everything is saved but this file is not "running" in game

Please don’t suggest that again

My fault, sorry. Wont happen.

OP should instead be asking there themselves to be honest It’s their issue, so delegating someone to be the messenger here will only delay the solution being found Try opening windows defender and check if any FiveM related processes are being blocked under ransomware protection
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
I will give it a try i opened windows defender but where can i see if fivem is beeing blocked
nex
nex3y ago
it will be in your protection history
equal-aqua
equal-aquaOP3y ago
its ok it doesnt show fivem getting blocked Did you guys talk about this in the fivem sv ?
equal-aqua
equal-aqua3y ago
It's a pretty busy support channel, the CFX.re Project Hub one, try posting it too, also within the v-menu section, but it's not granted that someone will know how to solve it
