Hello everyone, I want to make a map of my city, but I cant understand how to create new project but without los santos, just simple blank project
Well if you cant start a new project how do you expect to create a new map? Do you understand what goes into making a map?
Sorry if that sounds mean but it is years worth of learning to get to a workable map similar to the gta map
Anyway, your choice, good luck, lots of learning to be done, do a search on google, there are plenty of mods freely available to remove the map so you just have water

Thank you for your opinion, dont worry, I’m not going to make the map like gta size, smthg small, like town, also dont worry about my mapping skill, I did a lot maps in CS:Source,GO, I believe that it’ll help me
ok, no worries, its a big job and new people dont realise how complex it is
Good luck and have fun

I kinda disagree. I think for the annoyingly persistent like myself, you learn. Everything you’ve never done before will be hard. But that’s why we stick with it! It makes us good at those things!
Anyways @mihgun - Here’s a link that’ll help you:
When adding a map resource, you can add a script in __resource.lua (aka fxmanifest.lua) to replace the map level with whatever you’re trying to add, so in effect, if you wanted a completely blank map to start, you can maybe make something invisible with no collision and add that as a map resource.
OTHERWISE, you can simply start making / importing your map and once you add the “Replace” data in the manifest file, it should clear out the vanilla los santos map!
Now, I’m sure there are OTHER ways to do this (and I’m not sure if this also affects things like traffic, timecycles, interiors, etc), but this is a good start!
Another thing you can look up is: FiveM “hipster” or fivem “skater” to see if there are any additional tips on google.
Good luck, and share your progress if you make any! (It helps everyone else learn too!) 
P.S. A bit unrelated but this may give you some tips on at least manipulating the existing map a little bit:
I agree, with a lot of time and education, you can do alot.
I was thinking along the lines of the world cols, navmesh, traffic paths, lods, etc etc
Trying to get a whole new world is a huge job and to think of all the ppl involved with a diverse skill set and its taken 6 years to get gta 6 somewhere near a release.
I find people come in with an expectation to do amazing things to change it (as I did intially) and want to do it now when they cant even put a new tree in a map…lol.
Anyway, would be fantastic if a new island popped up for all to enjoy

Agreed!
But this guy may just be referring to yoshi’s island, or spongebob’s island.
But I totally agree with you. The hhiiigh quality stuff isn’t as easy as throwing it in a map-creator-converter all in one that someone made…then we’d see a saturation of maps!
Unfortunately, that’s not the case!
