Controls and commands
Everything you need under your fingers. Almost every key can be rebound in Settings > Key Bindings > FiveM, and every command is typed in the chat (T).
On foot#
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| Up arrow | Pull out your phone; pick up when it rings |
| I | Open your inventory |
| TAB (hold) | Weapon wheel: mouse left for slot 1, right for slot 2, down for bare hands |
| TAB (tap) | Open the inventory, where you change the weapons you carry |
| 1 / 2 | Weapon in slot 1 / 2; press again to holster it |
| Mouse wheel | Cycle slot 1, slot 2 and bare hands (on foot, not aiming) |
| F3 (hold) | Emote wheel; tap: the catalog |
| X | Stop the current emote |
| Y | Accept a two-person emote (Backspace to refuse) |
| X (hold) | Surrender to the cops when you're wanted; X again to get up |
| E | Interact: buy, talk, search, open a car trunk, revive a friend |
| Z | Reputation bar |
| F5 | Sheet of the current tutorial step |
| H | Swear revenge, on the death screen (vendetta) |

In a vehicle#
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| F | Get in: the wheel if it's free, otherwise the nearest free seat |
| G | Get in as a passenger, through the nearest free door |
| K | Switch to a free seat (stop before you let go of the wheel) |
| U | Lock or unlock your car |
| H (hold, stopped) | Flash your headlights: challenge the driver next to you to a race |
| G (stopped, at the spot) | The races board |
You can also get in through the rear doors, and once you're a passenger you stay one: no more automatic slide to the wheel. A locked player car only opens with a hacking box (E at the door).
Henchmen#
| Key | What it does |
|---|---|
| B (hold) | Orders wheel (orders) |
| Y | Equip the henchman in front of you |
| J | Driver: stop / go again |
In the action#
Keys that only matter at the right moment show up in the top left. The most common:
- E does the main action (pick a lock, drill, pick up, plant a charge); G the loud action or the second option (kick a door in, cut a burglary alarm, collect your prison locker).
- Backspace cancels or gives up midway.
- H reports a tag, or switches to ring view at the fight club.
Keys you pick yourself#
These actions have no default key. Give them one in Settings > Key Bindings > FiveM:
- call or send away your dog;
- open the street Stable, the network board, the tags blackbook;
- 6 emote shortcuts, filled from the catalog.
