ps if you need something else, feel free to ask :slight_smile:

There’s not much in the logs here besides the fact that it switches builds, but I’d recommend a full FiveM reinstall as a first step

From reviewing your logs, I don’t see any immediate fatal errors, but there are a few things we can try based on common FiveM issues:

Let me know if any of these work

Possible Causes & Fixes

1. Corrupted Cache Files

  • Navigate to: C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Local\FiveM\FiveM Application Data\
  • Delete everything inside the cache folder except for game.

2. Disable Antivirus (McAfee)

  • McAfee may block FiveM from properly loading assets.
  • Temporarily disable it and see if FiveM loads faster.
  • If this helps, add FiveM and GTA V as exceptions.

3. Run FiveM as Administrator

Right-click FiveM.exeRun as Administrator.

4. Check RAM Usage & Pagefile

  • Open Task Manager ( Ctrl + Shift + Esc ) and check if your RAM is maxing out.
  • If high, try increasing your pagefile (virtual memory):
  • Open System Properties (sysdm.cpl).
  • Go to Advanced > Performance Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory.
  • Set a custom size (e.g., 16GB min / 32GB max).

5. Reinstall FiveM (Full Clean)

  • Uninstall FiveM.
  • Delete: C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Local\FiveM
  • Reinstall from https://fivem.net/.

6. Try Another Server

  • Some servers have broken assets causing long load times.
  • Try joining a different lightweight server.

7. Check for Rockstar Launcher Issues

  • Ensure GTA V runs fine in single-player mode.
  • Log out & back in to Rockstar Launcher.
