How to Install Server Resources
Extract Resource Folder
Download your desired RedM script or mod. Unzip the file and verify that the root folder contains an fxmanifest.lua file.
Place in resources Directory
Move the resource folder into your server's resources/ directory (e.g. server-data/resources/[scripts]/resource_name).
Ensure in server.cfg
Open your server.cfg file and add ensure resource_name to start the script automatically when the server boots.
