Maintaining the System Core

Artifacts (frequently referred to as the server binaries or core files) represent the fundamental executable engine that powers your FiveM instance. Regularly updating your artifacts is a critical maintenance task required for compatibility with newer GTA V game builds, ensuring OneSync synchronization stability, and accessing the latest technical features within txAdmin. This guide ensure your server remains on the cutting edge of the CitizenFX ecosystem.

The One-Click Update Workflow

FREAKHOSTING has simplified the technical process of artifact management into a centralized, single-click interface within your management dashboard.
1

Access the Artifacts Tab

Log in to the Game Panel and select the specific server you wish to update. Locate the Artifacts tab in the sidebar menu.
2

Select Your Build

Browse the list of verified builds provided directly from the official Cfx.re repository:
  • Recommended: The most technically stable and community-vetted build.
  • Latest: Includes the most recent security patches and experimental features.
3

Execute Installation

Click the Install button next to your selected version. The system will automatically retrieve the binary assets and replace your existing core files.
4

Initialize the New Core

Once the panel confirms completion, navigate to the Console and click Restart to boot the server using the new engine version.

​
Technical Verification

After the server initializes, examine the initial lines of the console output. The engine will explicitly broadcast its build number (e.g., FXServer-master v1.0.0.XXXX). Alternatively, you can view the “Host” metadata in the txAdmin dashboard sidebar to verify your current version.
If a specific community resource becomes unstable or triggers crashes after an update, you can use the same Artifacts tab to select and install a previous “Recommended” version, reverting your engine state instantaneously.

​
Prerequisite: Backup Verification

While artifact updates are strictly binary-level and do not modify your /resources/ directory or server.cfg, we strongly recommend generating a Full Backup before performing a version jump. This ensures a safe recovery point if your specific mod configuration is incompatible with the new engine logic.
