Ready-to-use button configurations for common FiveM/RedM scenarios. Copy the command strings directly into your button settings.

Note: Some commands depend on your server's framework and installed resources. Test commands in the in-game console (F8) first to confirm they work on your server.

Tips

  • Start simple - get a single command working before adding chains or delays
  • Test in console - always verify commands work in-game (F8) before configuring buttons
  • Use stages for toggles - 2 stages is the most common setup (on/off)
  • Use delays for RP - spaced-out /me messages read more naturally than instant ones
  • Label your buttons - set a custom title in Stream Deck so you remember what each button does
