Once you have done this, install the resource in the same way as any other FiveM resource. If you are not familiar with this process, here's a quick step by step tutorial:

• When you unzipped the zip file you should have found a number of files inside
• Once you have configured mdt_config.lua as described above, you can continue
• On your FiveM server, locate your server-data folder
• In the server-data folder, go into the resources folder
• Copy the contents of the cadvanced_mdt directory from the zip file onto your FiveM server, into a resources/cadvanced_mdt folder
• Your resource is now installed
• If you want to start the resource immediately, type start cadvanced_mdt in the FiveM console
• If you want the resource to start when the FiveM server starts, edit the server.cfg file inside server-data folder
  • You will see a number of lines starting with start, add a new line at the bottom of this list saying start cadvanced_mdt
• You're done!
