How to Use RedEngine Lua Executor in FiveM (2025 Guide)

If you’ve been around the FiveM modding scene for even a little while, chances are you’ve heard the name RedEngine floating around. Whether you’re looking to run custom scripts, unlock client-side control, or just want to understand how the top-tier Lua executors work — RedEngine is one of the most talked-about tools out there.

In this guide, I’ll walk you through how to use the RedEngine Lua Executor in FiveM, from start to finish. No fluff, no complicated jargon — just a step-by-step breakdown based on first-hand experience.

Step 1: Registering on the RedEngine Platform

First things first — you’ll need an account. Head over to the official RedEngine website and register. The process is super straightforward: email, username, password — that’s it. Once registered, you’ll gain access to your personal dashboard, where you can manage your subscription, download the injector, and get key updates.

Pro tip: Make sure the email you use is valid — your license key and activation link will be sent there.

Step 2: Purchase and Download

Once you’ve created your account, browse the subscription packages. RedEngine offers various options depending on your budget — from short-term access to longer, more cost-effective plans. Choose the one that suits your needs and complete your payment.

They accept a variety of methods including PayPal, credit cards, and crypto, which makes things pretty flexible.

Once your payment is confirmed, you’ll receive an email with:

• Your license key
• A download link for the RedEngine loader
• Step-by-step instructions (but we’re going to break it down even further here)

Step 3: Disable Antivirus (Temporarily)

Now here’s the part many people skip and regret later.

Disable your antivirus before running the loader. Not because it’s harmful — RedEngine is safe — but because most Lua executors get flagged as false positives due to how they interact with game files. It’s a normal part of the game-modding world.

Don’t worry, once everything’s set up and running, you can enable your antivirus again.

Step 4: Running the RedEngine Loader

With your antivirus temporarily off, go ahead and run the loader as administrator. This step is important. Right-click the executable and hit “Run as Administrator” — this gives it the access it needs to inject into FiveM properly.

You’ll be prompted to enter your license key. Copy it from your email, paste it in, and you’re good to go.

The loader will then open and check for updates. Once everything’s up to date, it’ll sit in the background — ready for you to launch FiveM.

Step 5: Launching FiveM and Injecting the Executor

Now, launch FiveM like you normally would. Wait until you’re at the main menu (don’t rush into a server just yet).

Once you’re on the menu screen, go back to the loader and press the inject button. If everything’s done correctly, you’ll get a success message — and boom — RedEngine is live inside FiveM.

You’ll now have access to a custom Lua execution window. From here, you can:

• Run custom Lua scripts
• Bypass certain server-side restrictions
• Enable client-side enhancements
• Automate in-game tasks
• And more…

If you’re a developer or just want to spice up your gameplay, this is where the fun begins.

Step 6: Script Execution & Using the Console

With RedEngine injected, open the in-game console (usually via a hotkey like Insert or F8 depending on your config) and start loading scripts.

Scripts are usually written in Lua, and there are thousands available online in trusted modding communities and Discord servers.

Some useful scripts include:

• Money drops (for private servers)
• Custom vehicle spawning
• God mode for PvE
• Trolling options (use with caution!)

Final Thoughts

Using RedEngine Lua Executor in FiveM isn’t just about cheating — it’s about unlocking the sandbox potential of the game. Whether you’re automating admin tasks on your own server, scripting events, or exploring client-side tweaks, RedEngine puts a whole new level of control in your hands.

That said, always use tools like this responsibly. Respect server rules, avoid harming other players’ experiences, and stick to servers where modding is allowed.

If you’re tired of the limitations in vanilla FiveM and ready to take your control to the next level, RedEngine is one of the best choices available in 2025.
