REDACTOR
ESCAPE
REDACTOR ESCAPE is a FiveM pause menu designed not to distract you from the game, but to enhance your roleplay experience within it.
When you press ESC, a clean interface opens up. No clutter—just the essentials you need right now.
01 / Your character, at a glance
How does this
FiveM pause menu work?
You’ve stopped in the middle of a Los Santos street.
Your car is idling at a traffic light... pedestrians are walking by.
And right in front of you—your profile.
Everything is visible at a glance:
- Character name,
- Health/armor (bars),
- Current funds,
- Your job and current duty status...
Nothing complicated. Just straightforward, honest data about your character.
02 / Server news, services & GPS
What else
can you do?
🔹 Check city news:
Did the mayor announce a new event? Is the police warning about a chase?
Quick to read—short headlines plus the publication date.
🔹 See who’s online:
Need help or need to coordinate on duty? See service counts at a glance, based on your server’s job and duty settings.
Example service counts
Police
3
EMS

🔹 Select a GPS location:
Want to go to the hospital? The car market? City Hall?
Pick a destination → a GPS waypoint is set automatically...
And a second later, you close the menu!
03 / Just the essentials
Unpretentious
design
The layout is simple yet pleasing to the eye:
The color scheme matches the server's style (e.g., red and black).
The REDACTOR logo sits in the top-left corner...
The background is semi-transparent—the city continues right behind the menu!
It doesn't get in the way of gameplay...
it makes it more convenient.
And all of this without unnecessary flair. No flashy light animations, explosions, or multimedia effects. It’s simply information, neatly organized into an interface that looks just like a real city control panel.
04 / Keep your server within reach
Server rules, community links
& weather
🔹 Server Rules
Open the section and instantly see all the key points:
— prohibited actions (e.g., cheating),
— roleplay rules (how to behave during an arrest),
— faction-specific details...
You can search by keyword right here. It’s convenient for newcomers and players returning after a long break.
🔹 Community links
There’s a dedicated tab for important resources:
- Link to the Discord chat,
- Official server website,
- YouTube/TikTok channels...
One click → open your community’s website or social page!
🔹 Time & weather
See the current time ("21:47") and the weather outside ("Rain," +15°C)...
