Running two FiveM clients

Running Two FiveM Clients (Using Shortcuts)

Step 1: Locate the FiveM Executable

By default, FiveM is installed at:

C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\FiveM\FiveM.exe

Replace <YourUsername> with your actual Windows username. If you have installed FiveM in a different location, navigate to that directory instead. You can also right-click your existing FiveM shortcut and choose Open file location.

Step 2: Create Two Separate Shortcuts

1. Right-click FiveM.exe
2. Select Create shortcut
3. Rename the shortcuts:
   • FiveM - Client 1
   • FiveM - Client 2

---

Step 3: Add the -cl2 Launch Parameter

Only the second FiveM shortcut needs to be modified.

Client 2 (Second Instance)

1. Right-click FiveM - Client 2
2. Select Properties
3. In the Target field, append -cl2 after the closing quote

Example:

```text
"C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Local\FiveM\FiveM.exe" -cl2
```

Replace `<YourUsername>` with your actual Windows username.

4. Click OK

Step 4: Launch the Clients

1. Start FiveM - Client 1
2. Wait until it fully loads
3. Start FiveM - Client 2

You’re now ready to run two FiveM clients simultaneously.
