Have you ever wanted to change your name when connecting to FiveM? Maybe you’re tired of your old name, or maybe you just want to try something new. Whatever the reason, changing your name in FiveM is a quick and easy process. In this article, we’ll show you how to do it in just a few simple steps.
First, you’ll need to open the FiveM console. You can do this by pressing the tilde key (~) on your keyboard. Once the console is open, type the following command:
set sv_lanname "Your new name"
Replace "Your new name" with the name you want to use. For example, if you want to change your name to "John Smith", you would type the following command:
set sv_lanname "John Smith"
Once you have entered the command, press enter to save your changes. You should now see your new name displayed in the top left corner of the screen.
If you ever want to change your name back to your old name, simply follow the same steps and enter your old name in the command.
Deleting and Re-creating Your Character
If you’re unhappy with your current character’s name or appearance, you can delete them and create a new one. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Log into your FiveM account and click on your profile name in the top-right corner.
2. Select “My Characters” from the drop-down menu.
3. Find the character you want to delete and click on the “Delete” button.
4. Confirm that you want to delete the character.
Once you’ve deleted your character, you can create a new one by clicking on the “Create Character” button.
