This guide will walk you through downloading, installing, and running your first Dietrich Development RedM script.
If you’ve already set up a RedM server environment, this should only take a few minutes.
Prerequisites:
  • A running RedM server (Windows or Linux)
  • Access to your server’s resources folder
  • Basic understanding of server restarts & config files
  • Your purchased script file(s) from the Tebex Store

​
Step-by-step setup

1

Download your script

After purchasing from our Tebex Store, you’ll receive:
  • A .zip file containing the script resource folder
  • License key (if applicable)
Save the .zip somewhere accessible.
2

Extract & place the resource

Unzip the file and place the folder into your RedM server’s resources directory.Example path: server-data/resources/[custom]/my_script_name
Group your custom scripts in a [custom] folder to keep your server organized.
3

Configure the script

Inside the resource folder, look for a config.lua (or similar).
Open it in your preferred code editor and adjust settings like:
  • Language & UI preferences
  • Permissions & access roles
  • Feature toggles
Save the file with UTF-8 encoding to avoid issues with special characters.
4

Add to server.cfg

In your server.cfg file, add: ensure my_script_name Replace my_script_name with the exact folder name.
5

Restart the server & test

Restart your RedM server.
Join and verify the script loads without errors in the console/logs.

​
First verification

Check server console

Look for Started resource my_script_name without any warnings.

In-game test

Trigger the main feature of the script (command, keybind, or menu) to confirm it’s working.
