Getting Your First Job

You can head to the Job Centre to pick from “Open Jobs” but for “Whitelist Jobs” such as State Trooper or Paramedic it requires a separate whitelist you can apply for.

Whitelist Jobs

Many jobs require you to submit an in-character application via the Department Of Justice.

We have a vast judicial system in which you can get the role of a small time paralegal to a lawyer, there are many layers and jobs available in this field such as a Judge that oversees cases in court and granting applicant requests such as the Realtor role.

Hobbies

Not only can you have a main job which will be your main income if you desire, you can also pick-up a side hustle such as Fishing, Mining or Hunting for when you want to have a relaxing time collecting minerals for crafting or catching your next meal.

There’s also a wide-variety of races all over the island which can be viewed on the mini-map.

TIP: You can find most tools required at Supply Stores

Housing

We have an in-depth fleshed out housing system on the server, over 31+ categories with 500+ furniture pieces to customize your property.

There’s many different housing interiors to purchase at varying price points from your starting apartment to full scale warehouses to operate your legal or perhaps illegal activities.

Once in a property where you own the keys you will have access to the Furniture menu via the F9 menu – from here you can purchase, place, rotate and create a space entirely personalized for yourself.

f you are struggling to find your starter apartment after leaving then hit G > Character > Housing then deselect all except Apartment. Then check your mini-map and look for this icon.

TIP: To delete furniture hit DEL once to chose then hit DEL again.

 

 

 

 

Skills

Overtime you can accrued more skills by doing specific activities to gain XP in order to level up and unlock more abilities within the corresponding skills.

Illegal Activities

There’s many ways to make money illegal but equally as many opportunities to make money at the expense of others. You can produce your own marijuana to traffic throughout the island to many more than willing clients to buy. Put your wits to the test and hack using a Datapad or use old fashioned crowbars to break open safes to make a quick buck – play it smart and make millions, if you get sloppy the Los Santos Sheriff’s Department will be one step behind you.

Get a heist crew together and take on some of the biggest banks in America or do something quieter and create a scheme that’s so brilliant no trace leads back to you.

We won’t ruin too much for you, get on the server and connect with the right people and dive straight into the criminal life in Los Santos.

Organizations

You can setup an organization when creating your business with many customization abilities like setting ranks and managing your assets. Once you feel like you’ve reached the next step you can purchase a warehouse facility to house, grow and store your valuables as a group which includes a communal garage that your group will have access to.
