Have you tried joining another server and rejoining?
Start with that
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
should i try joining the 2nd sv rsm ?
cuz i play at sv 1
xenial-black•3y ago
Yeah try that
If it doesn't solve it then theres another idea
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
ok lemme try it
xenial-black•3y ago
But if that works then we won't have to go through the 2nd idea 

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
thats what i would prefer too
xenial-black•3y ago
Me too
did it work?

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
nope still the same
it downloaded some files and after that it showed again this
plan B now xD
xenial-black•3y ago
Hard to explain but try doing restart sessionmanager
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
where can i do it ?
xenial-black•3y ago
Wait stratch that
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
alright
xenial-black•3y ago
So you could delete your server cache, but that means it would get rid of your FiveM data, such as characters, cars, outfits etc.
2nd idea is you might have a antivirus software that might be interfering with joining the server
(Reason being it might be corrupted)
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
the problem is that im trynna save those datas ..
xenial-black•3y ago
I see
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
let me see
xenial-black•3y ago
Third is that you might not have enough storage on the drive you installed FiveM on.
Only ideas i can think of as of now
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
should i reinstall it ? and save that file with cars, character etc
xenial-black•3y ago
You could try taking out the cache files and reinstalling FiveM, then replace the new cache with the old ones, if that makes sense.
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
where is that file located ?
xenial-black•3y ago
Only downside for that is stuff will take a while to load for a few times
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
ik its smth small
np
xenial-black•3y ago
wherever you installed FiveM
in that directory
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
ye but how is the file called
national-gold•3y ago
Probably 

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
xd ik in fivem but i did the same thing when i changed my pc
xenial-black•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
it was a folder with 2 things in it and when i reinstalled fivem i just changed it and files started downloading
xenial-black•3y ago

xenial-black•3y ago
everything is data is to do with the cache files
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
should i save all ?
xenial-black•3y ago
Yes
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
i dont remember doing this but i will try
xenial-black•3y ago
Well no, the ones with cache in them
They're the ones you need to save.
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
kk
lemme try
xenial-black•3y ago
Okay
I hope it works for you!
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
this is the old one
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
maybe i need to save this folder and replace it after i reinstall it
xenial-black•3y ago
Can also do this
Saves some extra stuff you might've added to the game
Just do the exact same thing as you would do with the cache files too.
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
ye cuz if i copy all the cache data that was a lot of GB and it didnt work the last time i tried
xenial-black•3y ago
Everytime i've done it, its worked fine
Not saying you should just go off what works for me though 

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

xenial-black•3y ago
Just put the old CitizenFX file in the same location, that being FiveM Application Data
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
it didnt work ...
i putted it i opend the game and nothing is saved 

xenial-black•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
it 

xenial-black•3y ago
Least something worked out for you 

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
ah better not worked ...
xenial-black•3y ago
you can't join now?
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

xenial-black•3y ago

other-emerald•3y ago
That's because the saves were in another folder...
was the correct file/folder, not the cache.
A little context: "\kvs" is the vMenu folder that saves all your important in-game saved assets (cars, player customizations, settings, weapons, etc.).
Now, try putting the folder/files you previously backed up inside that folder, opening it via Win + R and typing %AppData%\CitizenFX. Just paste it there if u had it saved, and u should have all your contents back. FiveM Application Data is in %localappdata%, it's not the same.
@prela.

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
Ohh okkk let me try it
i have the kvs folder
but when i press Win R and type %AppData&\CitizenFX it was windows can not find
other-emerald•3y ago
My bad
%AppData%\CitizenFX

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
i already have it
other-emerald•3y ago
Open the folder; inside u should find a series of files, two can be opened using a common text editor.
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

other-emerald•3y ago
Open the text document (DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING INSIDE OR YOU'LL CORRUPT STUFF). Does it contain any kind of info related to saved assets?
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
yeah
other-emerald•3y ago
In your previous game sesssions, had u saved more than 5 cars?
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
a lot
prob like 80 or more
other-emerald•3y ago
Then this file just contains recent saves u made since the last FiveM re-install
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
this is the file that i saved from the fivem i uninstalled
where i had me stuff
other-emerald•3y ago
Isn't there any other similar looking file?
(Might appear as LDB files, but they can be opened via notepad)
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
this second one
i can open with notepad
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

other-emerald•3y ago
Here it is, u should have your in-game saves... Weird
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
this is the second one btw
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago

foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
this is the manifest the last one
other-emerald•3y ago
It actually happened to other users that they weren't allowed to view their saves but those were within a folder in \kvs named "LOST". And it was solved by just copying the LOST files back into the original folder.
Never occurred that saved files won't appear on the vMenu even tho they still are inside the kvs folder...
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
LOCK or LOST
other-emerald•3y ago
Have u already re-tried pasting your kvs file from this screenshot inside the folder I mentioned before?
LOST
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
look what i did
i installed fivem i open the file location at app data
and i paste the citizenfx folder in there
i only did this and i opened the game and it werent saved
i only have LOCK as a folder
other-emerald•3y ago
As a file? That's not the same thing and it should be 0 kb
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
it has nothing inside
ye it is 0
other-emerald•3y ago
Asking about the issue on the FiveM discord dedicated channel. I'll let u know if they know a solution, since it's weird that you do have the files saved but you won't be able of using the saved assets. And this, shouldn't be happening
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
yeah thats what is suprising me cuz the last time i did it , it worked and now its not
everything is saved but this file is not "running" in game
Please don’t suggest that again
xenial-black•3y ago
My fault, sorry. Wont happen.
OP should instead be asking there themselves to be honest
It’s their issue, so delegating someone to be the messenger here will only delay the solution being found
Try opening windows defender and check if any FiveM related processes are being blocked under ransomware protection
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
I will give it a try
i opened windows defender but where can i see if fivem is beeing blocked
it will be in your protection history
foreign-sapphireOP•3y ago
its ok
it doesnt show fivem getting blocked
Did you guys talk about this in the fivem sv ?
other-emerald•3y ago
It's a pretty busy support channel, the CFX.re Project Hub one, try posting it too, also within the v-menu section, but it's not granted that someone will know how to solve it
