alt:V - Open Roleplay

---

Open Roleplay is the base framework for my server: alt:V Life.

This project now serves as a reference for RP servers in the future; all additional updates are put on hold and privatized for alt:Life. The code base up to this point is considered free but the Terms and Conditions as well as licensing still stands.

Reach out if you wish to monetize this gamemode.

Docker (Optional)

Installation using Docker

If you do not know what docker is. Please do not proceed any further.

OpenRP includes support for building and running the alt:V and PostgreSQL server using Docker. Included is a docker-compose.yml which contains many variables that you will need to edit. Any changes you make will require you to rebuild the altv-openrp container.

To build new containers, first edit the docker-compose.yml file and fill in all the details for the altv server and discord information, and then build with docker-compose. Note: You must agree with OpenRP terms of service by passing TOS_AGREE=true as a build argument.

docker-compose build --build-arg TOS_AGREE=true

To run the containers:

docker-compose up

Please see Docker and Docker-Compose documentation for more options.
