Ready to enter the city? Connecting to Equinox Roleplay only takes a few steps.

Before You Connect

Make sure you:
  • Are 17 years of age or older
  • Are a member of the Equinox Roleplay Discord
  • Have FiveM installed and ready to play
  • Meet the required FiveM Pure Mode settings
Equinox is not whitelist-only. You do not need to complete an application before creating a character and beginning to play.

Join the Server

Find Us on FiveM

Open FiveM, search for Equinox Roleplay, select the server, and connect.

Direct Connect

Visit the #connect channel in the Equinox Discord and use the provided Direct Connect link.
Using the Direct Connect link from Discord is usually the easiest way to make sure you’re joining the correct Equinox server.

Discord Is Required

Membership in the Equinox Roleplay Discord is required to connect and remain part of the community. Discord is used for:
  • Server announcements
  • Support tickets
  • Connection information
  • Applications
  • Community updates
  • Rule and documentation changes
  • Whitelisted opportunities
Leaving or losing access to the Equinox Discord may prevent you from connecting to the server.

Whitelisted Opportunities

General access to Equinox does not require an application, for now. Some roles and opportunities do require additional approval, including things such as:
  • Whitelisted business ownership
  • Official gangs or organizations
  • Law enforcement
  • Certain government or public-service positions
  • Other restricted roles
Whitelisting applies to specific roles and opportunities, not general access to Equinox Roleplay.

FiveM Pure Mode

Equinox uses FiveM Pure Mode to help prevent unauthorized or modified client files from being loaded while playing. When connecting, FiveM may automatically restart if it needs to switch to the Pure Mode level required by the server.
A FiveM restart while connecting does not necessarily mean something is wrong. FiveM may simply be changing to the Pure Mode configuration required by Equinox.
