The client configuration

After you downloaded and installed the alt:V Multiplayer client, you can find the altv.toml file in the installation folder. This file contains the settings of the client. Per default this file only contains the branch and the path to your GTA:V installation. After the first launch of alt:V there are more settings available in the altv.toml. However, there are more settings that you can apply. Most of these settings can also be applied in the main menu under Settings but some of them need to be set up directly in this file.
