How do I spawn in?
Legitimate question. Installed, joined a server for the first time but I couldn’t spawn in as a character, it was just the sky view. Do I have to create a character in GTA Online first? It was a public life server.
Also should I install a trainer, or do servers usually come with them?
By default, fivem has no character creator, nor does it have “the sky view”, your best bet is to ask the server owner/staff

This is a server specific thing you can’t help him 
@Lutefisk Try and join a server in green at the top of the server list to test this in a confirmed working server.
