To load IPLs and interiors on a FiveM server, install the free IPL loader bob74_ipl: download the latest release from GitHub, upload the bob74_ipl folder into resources, switch on Start at boot on the Resources page and restart. It loads the GTA V and GTA Online interiors that the game hides by default and fixes holes in the map.

​
What is an IPL in FiveM?

An IPL is a named group of map objects that the game can load or unload, such as the walls and furniture of an interior. GTA V keeps many of them unloaded, for example the High Life apartments, heist and business interiors, and some buildings in the story map. When an IPL isn’t loaded, players see:
  • empty or see-through buildings,
  • holes in the map,
  • falling through the floor when they enter an interior.
An IPL loader is a resource that requests these IPLs for every player when they join.

​
What does bob74_ipl load?

bob74_ipl is the most used IPL loader for FiveM. Its purpose, in its own words, is to fix the holes in the map by loading zones that aren’t loaded by default. Version 2.7.1 (October 2026) covers: You can also change how each interior looks (styles, colours, props) from your own scripts. The bob74_ipl wiki lists the functions for each interior.

​
Which game build do I need for DLC interiors?

An interior from a GTA Online DLC only exists in game builds that include that DLC. If a newer interior stays empty, raise Game build on Server config. See how to change the game build.

​
How do I load one IPL from my own script?

For a single interior, you can request it in a client script with the RequestIpl native, for example:
Use RemoveIpl to unload it again. If you also run bob74_ipl, change its interiors with the functions in its wiki instead, so two scripts don’t control the same interior.

​
How do I customise an interior?

Many bob74_ipl interiors have styles you can change: colours, furniture, decorations and props. For example, nightclubs, bunkers, offices and apartments. You change them from your own client script, not by editing bob74_ipl’s files, so your changes survive an update.
  1. Open the bob74_ipl wiki and read How to interact with an interior?.
  2. Open the wiki page of your interior, for example After Hours: Nightclubs. Each page ends with an example.
  3. Copy the example into a small client resource of your own, change the styles you want and start it after bob74_ipl.

​
How to update bob74_ipl

  1. Make a backup.
  2. Download the latest release and replace the files in resources/bob74_ipl.
  3. Restart the server.
Because your own changes live in your own resource, nothing is lost. If you edited bob74_ipl’s files directly, copy your changes first.

​
Frequently asked questions

​
Why do players fall through the floor in an interior?

The interior’s IPL isn’t loaded. Install bob74_ipl, make sure it starts, and check the game build for DLC interiors.

​
Is there a FiveM IPL list?

bob74_ipl’s files are grouped by DLC (for example dlc_casino and dlc_heists), and its wiki has a page per interior. The FiveM documentation also lists natives such as RequestIpl.

​
Does bob74_ipl add MLOs like a custom police station?

No. bob74_ipl loads interiors that are already in GTA V. Custom MLOs are separate map resources. See how to add custom maps.

​
Does bob74_ipl slow down my server?

bob74_ipl only has client scripts, so its work happens on each player’s PC, not on your server.

​
Do I need bob74_ipl with QBCore or ESX?

The QBCore, Qbox and ESX Legacy txAdmin recipes already install bob74_ipl in resources/[standalone]. Check Resources before you upload it a second time.
