# Enabling DLC Gamebuilds in FiveM

Unlock new content by enabling DLC gamebuilds on your FiveM server for access to fun features. 

Want to add more content to your FiveM server? Enabling downloadable content (DLC) gamebuilds unlocks new features and expands what your server can do. This guide walks you through two ways to set it up - using the Nodecraft control panel or configuring it manually. Follow the steps below to get started.

## Using your Control Panel

**Note: Be sure that your FiveM server is fully stopped before making any configuration changes or setting updates! **

1. Navigate to the **Game Settings** tab on the left-hand side of your control panel.
2. Within the **Basic** tab, locate the **Enforce Game Build** setting.  
  ![A dropdown menu labeled "Enforce Game Build" allows users to select a specific GTA build for their FiveM server. The selected build is "The Contract." Below the dropdown are two buttons: "Submit" and "Reset." A link labeled "Info on Builds" is positioned in the top right corner for additional details.](https://cms-a.nodecraft.com/f/133932/665x287/ecf7b4ec9b/screenshot-2025-02-17-171637.png/m/)
3. Click on the dropdown menu and choose the DLC build you want to enable for your server.  
  ![Dropdown Menu for Enforce Game Build: A dropdown menu labeled "Enforce Game Build" is open, displaying a list of available GTA builds for a FiveM server. The selected option is "The Contract," and the user is hovering over "San Andreas Mercenaries" with a checkmark indicating selection. A link labeled "Info on Builds" is positioned in the top right corner.](https://cms-a.nodecraft.com/f/133932/666x597/06a89f5e07/screenshot-2025-02-17-171805.png/m/)
4. **Submit** the change to ensure it is saved.  
  ![The dropdown menu now displays "San Andreas Mercenaries" as the selected game build. Below the selection field, two buttons labeled "Submit" and "Reset" are visible, with a link labeled "Info on Builds" in the top right corner.](https://cms-a.nodecraft.com/f/133932/680x278/2eda091bb5/screenshot-2025-02-17-171829.png/m/)
5. **Start **your server to apply the new settings.

## Manual Configuration

1. Navigate to the control panel for your Nodecraft FiveM server.
2. Click on **Server Files** on the left-side toolbar.
3. Locate the `nodecraft_config.cfg` file.
4. Click the file and then click the **Edit** button located in the upper left.
5. Locate the line containing `sv_enforceGameBuild` and input the **build ID number** for the DLC you wish to enable.  
    
  ![The sv_enforceGameBuild setting highlighted in a server.cfg file for a FiveM server](https://cms-a.nodecraft.com/f/133932/1896x522/c984eae8f2/sv_enforcegamebuild.png/m/1000x0/smart)**Note: For a comprehensive list of build IDs, consult ****[FiveM’s Server Commands Documentation](https://docs.fivem.net/docs/server-manual/server-commands/#sv_enforcegamebuild-build)****.**
6. Click the **Save Changes** button after entering the build ID number.
