redEngine can't run without adhesive.dll in your FiveM files. Reinstall FiveM.

Nothing happens when you open the launcher

  • The launcher can't be opened from a folder that is in OneDrive or has symbols in its path. Move it to C:.
  • Right-click the launcher and run the Windows compatibility troubleshooter. If it says "No issues found", choose Try recommended settings.

The game crashes after pressing Fix Blinking

  1. Restart FiveM and redEngine, and press Fix Blinking before and after injecting the menu.
  2. If that doesn't work, remove modified resolutions, ReShade and modified citizen files.
  3. Try again, and don't spam the Fix Blinking button.

"Error connecting to the server!"

The details say: "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond."

Your internet provider or an application on your PC is blocking the connection. Using a VPN may solve it.

Injected, but nothing shows when pressing F11 or Insert

  1. In your GTA V folder, open imgui.ini, delete everything inside it and save the file.
  2. Open redEngine and FiveM again.
  3. Make sure the Steam overlay is enabled.
