In this video, we dive deep into FiveMTools v7.0 to show you how to efficiently use the Decrypt FXAP feature. If you are dealing with decompiled Lua scripts that are messy or have "FIVEMTOOLS" obfuscated variables, this guide is for you. What you will learn in this video: How to set up FiveMTools v7.0 for the first time. Step-by-step process to Decrypt FXAP. Cleaning up "No Visible Label" errors and fixing nested blocks. Refactoring obfuscated variables (FIVEMTOOLS1_2) into meaningful code. Replacing GOTO/Labels with clean While/Repeat-Until loops. https://discord.gg/fivemtools 00:00 - 00:45 | The Hook & Introduction (Visual: High-energy intro, showing the FiveMTools v7.0 interface and a "Before vs After" of a messy script) Script: "Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel. Today, we’re tackling one of the most requested topics in the FiveM dev community: How to use FiveMTools Version 7.0 to decrypt FXAP files. If you’ve ever opened a decompiled script and seen a total mess—filled with labels, gotos, and those annoying 'FIVEMTOOLS' variables—this video is for you. Version 7.0 is a game-changer for script optimization and readability. I’m going to show you how to turn that 'spaghetti code' into clean, professional Lua." 00:45 - 01:30 | Setup & Requirements (Visual: Screen recording showing the download folder and opening the FiveMTools.exe) Script: "Before we start, make sure you have the latest build installed. FiveMTools v7.0 requires a stable environment to handle the new decryption algorithms. First, let’s look at the UI. You’ll notice the new 'Decrypt FXAP' module on the sidebar. Unlike older versions, 7.0 features an improved 'Auto-Cleanup' engine that doesn't just decrypt the code, but actually attempts to restructure the logic flow. Make sure your source file is ready and that you’ve backed up your original resources. Never work on your only copy!" 01:30 - 02:15 | The Decryption Process (Visual: Dragging a .lua or .fxap file into the tool and clicking 'Decrypt') Script: "Now, let’s get to the core. To decrypt, simply drag your file into the workspace or use the 'Load File' dialog. Once the file is loaded, select the FXAP Decryptor option. Keep an eye on the console log here. The tool is currently stripping the encryption layers and identifying the original function headers. This version is significantly faster, handling complex files in seconds. Once the progress bar hits 100%, we aren’t done yet—we still need to run the cleanup pass to make the code human-readable." 02:15 - 02:50 | Variable Refactoring & Feature Overview (Visual: Zooming in on the code changing from 'FIVEMTOOLS_1' to 'PlayerData' or 'VehicleEntity') Script: "This is where the magic happens. By enabling the 'Refactor Variables' toggle, the tool identifies standard FiveM natives. It automatically renames those confusing decompiler placeholders into meaningful names like 'PlayerPedId' or 'VehicleHandle'. It also fixes the 'No Visible Label' errors by moving labels outside of nested blocks and converting 'gotos' into clean 'while' loops. By the time we hit the 3-minute mark, your script will be ready for actual editing. Let’s look at the settings you need to toggle for the best result..."
