How to Install & Configure vMenu in FiveM | EUGameHost

Install vMenu on your FiveM server to manage administration tools, player permissions, vehicles, weather, teleportation, and more.

vMenu is one of the most widely used server-side admin menus for FiveM.

Difficulty: Intermediate
Time Required: 8 Minutes


Step 1: Download vMenu

Download the latest version from the official vMenu GitHub release page.

Extract the downloaded files.


Step 2: Upload vMenu to Resources

Log in to your EUGameHost Game Panel.

Open File Manager and go to:

/resources

Upload the extracted vMenu folder.

Your structure should look like this:

resources
└── vMenu

Step 3: Move permissions.cfg

Inside the vMenu download, locate:

permissions.cfg

Move this file to your server root directory, where your server.cfg file is located.

Example structure:

server.cfg
permissions.cfg
resources
└── vMenu

This is the recommended setup for easier updates.


Step 4: Edit server.cfg

Open your server.cfg.

Add these lines in this exact order:

exec permissions.cfg
ensure vMenu

The order is important.

permissions.cfg must load before vMenu starts.


Step 5: Add Yourself as Admin

Open:

permissions.cfg

Add your identifier under the principals section.

Example using Steam:

add_principal identifier.steam:11000010a2c3d4e group.admin

Then give the admin group full access:

add_ace group.admin "vMenu.Everything" allow

This gives your account full vMenu permissions.


Step 6: Restart Your Server

Restart your server from the EUGameHost Game Panel.

vMenu should now load and your admin permissions will apply.


Common Permissions

Full Admin Access

add_ace group.admin "vMenu.Everything" allow

Player Access

If you want regular players to use limited menu features, edit the built-in permissions inside:

permissions.cfg

Only enable the options you want players to access.


Common Issues

Check that:

  • ensure vMenu is in server.cfg
  • exec permissions.cfg loads first
  • your identifier is correct
  • permissions file is in the server root

No Admin Permissions

This is usually caused by using the wrong identifier.

Double-check your Steam or FiveM license identifier.
