{% step %}

### Install cDev\_bet and create a new subfolder or extract folder to server's root

### Install resource from [Portal](https://portal.cfx.re/assets/granted-assets)

**After installing, you should get a zip file with the name shown below.**

* <mark style="color:yellow;">cdev\_bet.pack.zip</mark>

{% hint style="info" %}
Create a new subfolder optional step, but is *highly recommended*.
{% endhint %}

**If you haven’t already, create a new subfolder named `[cdev]` in your server’s root resources directory. Unzip (*****extract*****) this script into the newly created `[cdev]` subfolder.**

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Add ACE permission

Open your `server.cfg` and add the following ACE permission:

```
add_ace group.admin cdev_bet.admin allow
```

**or**

```
add_ace identifier.license:xxxxxxxxxxxx cdev_bet.admin allow
```

{% hint style="danger" %} <mark style="color:$warning;">**Important:**</mark>**&#x20;If you are on the Qbox framework, the recommended place to paste the above permission is inside the `permissions.cfg` file instead of `server.cfg`.**
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Update server.cfg & perform a full restart

Once all other steps are completed, open your `server.cfg` & add `ensure cdev_bet` to the very **bottom** of your resource start list (after oxmysql, your framework, inventory, and target if used). Finally, perform a full server restart. Failure to perform a full restart after installation will cause errors.

**Note: Once completed, use the command `/betadmin` in-game to join in admin panel and create your matches**
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you run a **custom framework, notify**, read Configurations and Integrations to align `Bridge` settings and optional bridge files under `public/bridge/`.
