Before players can join your RedM server, you'll need to go through a quick setup process. Fortunately, txAdmin makes this easy with its built-in web interface that guides you through everything step-by-step.
Note:
This guide will help you to set up your RedM server. If you wish to set up a FiveM server, please follow this guide instead.
# Accessing txAdmin
- Start your server and check the console output for a line showing the txAdmin registration pin.
Can’t find it? Just restart the server to generate a new one.
- Open txAdmin.
- Enter the pin to connect your server to your browser session.
- Log in or register your Cfx.re account and give txAdmin permission to access your profile.
- Create a server-specific admin account to manage the RedM server.
Note:
This password is for txAdmin only and is separate from your Cfx.re account password.
