How to Enforce a Specific Game Build in FiveM | EUGameHost

Use a specific GTA V game build on your FiveM server to unlock newer DLC content such as vehicles, clothing, maps, and props.

This is required for many modern scripts, custom vehicles, MLOs, and clothing packs.

Difficulty: Beginner
Time Required: 4 Minutes


Why Change the Game Build?

By default, FiveM may use an older GTA V build for maximum compatibility.

Some newer resources require newer DLC assets from official GTA V updates.

Changing the game build allows access to content from DLCs such as:

  • Cayo Perico
  • Los Santos Tuners
  • The Contract
  • The Chop Shop

This is commonly required for:

  • Custom cars
  • Clothing packs
  • MLOs and maps
  • Modern scripts
  • New weapon assets
  • DLC props and interiors

Below are the most commonly used game builds.

Build Number DLC Name Recommended Use
1604 Arena War Older legacy servers
2189 Cayo Perico Island assets and gear
2372 Los Santos Tuners Vehicle mods and race content
2699 The Contract Agency assets and newer vehicles
3095 The Chop Shop Recommended for most servers

For most modern servers, we strongly recommend:

3095

Method 1: Change Build from the EUGameHost Panel

Log in to your EUGameHost Game Panel.

Go to:

Startup

Find the setting called:

Game Build

Enter your desired build number.

Example:

3095

Save the changes.


Method 2: Change Build in server.cfg

You can also enforce the build manually inside your server.cfg.

Add this line:

sv_enforceGameBuild 3095

Replace 3095 with the build required by your scripts.


Restart Your Server

After saving the build setting, restart your server from the EUGameHost control panel.

Once restarted, players will automatically download the required GTA V DLC files when joining.

This may show an additional loading bar during connection.


Common Issues

Scripts or Vehicles Not Working

This usually means the resource requires a newer build.

Check the script documentation and match the required build number.


Crashes After Changing Build

Some older scripts or frameworks may not support newer builds.

Make sure your framework is fully updated.

Examples:

  • QB-Core
  • ESX Framework

Older versions may cause:

  • menu issues
  • missing assets
  • client crashes
  • script errors

Best Practice Recommendation

For almost all modern FiveM servers, use:

sv_enforceGameBuild 3095

Only use older builds if a specific script requires it.

Running outdated builds can limit newer DLC content and reduce compatibility with premium resources.
