Have you tried joining another server and rejoining?
Start with that
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
should i try joining the 2nd sv rsm ?
cuz i play at sv 1
equal-aqua•2y ago
Yeah try that
If it doesn't solve it then theres another idea
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
ok lemme try it
equal-aqua•2y ago
But if that works then we won't have to go through the 2nd idea 
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
thats what i would prefer too
equal-aqua•2y ago
Me too 
did it work?
did it work?metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
nope still the same
it downloaded some files and after that it showed again this
plan B now xD
equal-aqua•2y ago
Hard to explain but try doing restart sessionmanager
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
where can i do it ?
equal-aqua•2y ago
Wait stratch that
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
alright
equal-aqua•2y ago
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)
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
the problem is that im trynna save those datas ..
equal-aqua•2y ago
I see
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
let me see
equal-aqua•2y ago
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
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
should i reinstall it ? and save that file with cars, character etc
equal-aqua•2y 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.
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
where is that file located ?
equal-aqua•2y ago
Only downside for that is stuff will take a while to load for a few times
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
ik its smth small
np
equal-aqua•2y ago
wherever you installed FiveM
in that directory
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
ye but how is the file called
foreign-sapphire•2y ago
Probably 
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
xd ik in fivem but i did the same thing when i changed my pc
equal-aqua•2y ago
You want to know what the cache folder is called?metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
it was a folder with 2 things in it and when i reinstalled fivem i just changed it and files started downloading
equal-aqua•2y ago
equal-aqua•2y ago
everything is data is to do with the cache files
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
should i save all ?
equal-aqua•2y ago
Yes
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
i dont remember doing this but i will try
equal-aqua•2y ago
Well no, the ones with cache in them
They're the ones you need to save.
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
kk
lemme try
equal-aqua•2y ago
Okay
I hope it works for you!
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
this is the old one
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
maybe i need to save this folder and replace it after i reinstall it
equal-aqua•2y 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.
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y 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
equal-aqua•2y ago
Everytime i've done it, its worked fine
Not saying you should just go off what works for me though
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
dont see citizenfx folder now that i reinstalled it ...equal-aqua•2y ago
Just put the old CitizenFX file in the same location, that being FiveM Application Data
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
it didnt work ...
i putted it i opend the game and nothing is saved 
equal-aqua•2y ago
idea as to why.
Did it atleast let you in to the server?metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
it
equal-aqua•2y ago
Least something worked out for you
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
ah better not worked ...
equal-aqua•2y ago
you can't join now?
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
no im saying i woud rather not join than lose my stuff xD

That's because the saves were in another folder... 
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.metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y 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
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
My bad %AppData%\CitizenFX
%AppData%\CitizenFXmetropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
i already have it
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
Open the folder; inside u should find a series of files, two can be opened using a common text editor.
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
conscious-sapphire•2y 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?
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
yeah
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
In your previous game sesssions, had u saved more than 5 cars?
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
a lot
prob like 80 or more
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
Then this file just contains recent saves u made since the last FiveM re-install
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
this is the file that i saved from the fivem i uninstalled
where i had me stuff
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
Isn't there any other similar looking file?
(Might appear as LDB files, but they can be opened via notepad)
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
this second one
i can open with notepad
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
Here it is, u should have your in-game saves... Weird
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
this is the second one btw
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
this is the manifest the last one
conscious-sapphire•2y 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...
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
LOCK or LOST
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
Have u already re-tried pasting your kvs file from this screenshot inside the folder I mentioned before?
LOST
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y 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
conscious-sapphire•2y ago
As a file? That's not the same thing and it should be 0 kb
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
it has nothing inside
ye it is 0
conscious-sapphire•2y 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
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y 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
equal-aqua•2y ago
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
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
I will give it a try
i opened windows defender but where can i see if fivem is beeing blocked
it will be in your protection history
metropolitan-bronzeOP•2y ago
its ok
it doesnt show fivem getting blocked
Did you guys talk about this in the fivem sv ?
conscious-sapphire•2y 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
