FiveM LAN with friends

I want to host a server for me and a few friends with Radmin VPN but I don’t seem to make it work. I tried adding the IP, changing the sv_lan to true and different combinations but they don’t seem to be able to connect. Does the FiveM server not work on lan or did I miss an extra step? I searched for this issue but I couldn’t find much info about it.

Just make a server and follow this steps:https://docs.fivem.net/docs/server-manual/setting-up-a-server/

Than just re-rowrk a server.cfg and place an ip: 127.0.0.1
And you a key from keymaster fivem.

Than go to FiveM App and run Fivem after that go to dirrect connect and type in 127.0.0.1 and you are able to see a server!

Yes, I can see my server, but my friends who are on Radmin cannot see or connect by direct IP

If you are on windows please open up command prompt. (Windows button + R à typ: cmd à hit enter)
You should see a black window appear. Typ in that windows “ipconfig”. You should get something like this:

Give your friend the IPv4 ip, or if you use IPv6 use that. Your friends should connect to your server.
If not please disabled your firewall. Good luck!

Edit: This only works for local use.

Hello Friend!

I don’t know if your issue ever got solved but here is a quick guide on how to use RADMIN VPN when playing with friends!

Making a RADMIN Session

  1. You make a session in RADMIN
  • For easy access I called mine BetaServerFiveM with the password of 2021Test
  1. It will now look something like this (I have more servers)

    That is all YOU have to do on your end!

Friends Joining?

  1. Your friend has to add YOUR just craeted network.
  • Go to Network and join existing network.
  • In Private network they fill the name/password that you created!
  1. Boot FiveM And search the server IP for me that would be 26.6.176.220 As that is what my RADMIN shows as IPV4.

Additional Notes

A server IP may not always show up at the direct connect. What I have found to work is use the CFX links if available they look like cfx.re/join/X0XXX0 Or something similair. You can also copy paste and remove the last digit and add it back manually (may take a few tries) Or Restart FiveM in a whole.

I hope you and your friends have a great time!
