Keeping your assets up-to-date via FiveM Keymaster ensures that you have the latest features, improvements, and bug fixes. Follow these steps to smoothly update your asset:
Before updating, it's crucial to back up your current version in case you need to revert to it later.
Server Files: Copy your current asset folder to a safe location on your server.
Database (if applicable): Export your current database or relevant tables.
Go to the website.
Log in with the credentials you used to purchase or manage your assets.
Navigate to the "Granted Assets" section.
Find the asset you want to update and click on it.
Download the latest version of the asset to an easily accessible location on your computer.
Check the Changelog file included with the update or available on the Keymaster page.
Note any changes that might require you to update your configuration or other scripts.
Delete or replace the old asset files on your server with the new ones you downloaded from Keymaster.
Important: Do not overwrite your config.lua or cfg.lua files unless the update specifically requires it.
If the asset includes a config.lua or similar file, compare it with your old version to merge any new settings.
If the update requires database changes, follow the instructions provided in the update notes.
Run any provided SQL scripts to update your database structure.
After replacing the files and updating the database (if needed), restart your server to apply the update.
Check the server console for any errors during startup.
Once the server is running, thoroughly test the updated asset to ensure everything works as expected.
Verify that new features or fixes are functioning correctly.
If you encounter any issues after updating:
Review the installation and update instructions again.
Check for any missing dependencies or configuration errors.
