installation

Prerequisites

Before installing ControlPaneel V3, make sure you have:

• A running FiveM server (latest recommended artifacts)
• The BRABO-Sirens resource installed (contains the audio banks)
• The baseevents resource started (used for vehicle enter/leave detection)

1. 1

   Step 1 - Download & Extract

   1. Download the latest release of controlPanelV3 from the BRABO Customs store.
   2. Extract the resource folder into your server's resources directory.

   resources/[BRABO-Controlpaneel-V3]
   ├── BRABO-Sirens/
   ├── BRABO-ControlPaneel-V3/
   │   ├── client/
   │   ├── server/
   │   ├── shared/
   │   ├── html/
   │   └── fxmanifest.lua
   ├── BRABO-ControlPaneel-V3-DB/
   ├── BRABO-VisualSettings/
   

2. 2

   Step 2 - Install BRABO-Sirens

   The siren audio is handled by a separate resource called BRABO-Sirens. This resource contains the DLC audio banks that the control panel uses to play siren, horn, and dual siren sounds.

   1. Place the BRABO-Sirens folder in your resources directory.
   2. Make sure it starts before the control panel in your server.cfg.
3. 3

   Step 3 - Configure server.cfg

   Add the following lines to your server.cfg:

   ensure baseevents
   ensure [BRABO-Controlpaneel-V3]
   

   Start order matters. BRABO-Sirens must start before controlPanelV3 so the audio banks are loaded when the control panel initializes.

   If you start the resources as the provided resource group ([BRABO-Controlpaneel-V3]), this start order is handled automatically

4. 4

   Step 4 - Add Vehicle Configs

   Without vehicle configuration files, no vehicles will be recognized by the control panel. See Vehicle Configuration to create your first config.

   Vehicle configs are placed in the configs/ folder inside the resource, each named after the vehicle's spawn name:

   configs/
   ├── politie1.config.lua
   ├── ambulance1.config.lua
   ├── brandweer1.config.lua
   └── ...
   

5. 5

   Step 5 - Verify

   1. Start your server and join.
   2. Spawn an emergency vehicle (class 18) that has a configuration file.
   3. Enter the vehicle - the control panel should appear on screen.
   4. Press NUMPAD 7 to toggle blue lights.

   If the control panel appears and blue lights toggle, you're all set! Proceed to Quick Start Guide for a walkthrough of all features.
