Take a PCAP

Downloading applications For this article we will be using Wireshark for our capture software. Visit https://wireshark.org or use this conveniently placed hyperlink to go straight to the downloads page! Make sure you download the correct build for the system you are running the software on.

Capturing packets/data Once you have installed the software, open up Wireshark and you will be presented with a screen where you need to select your primary network adapter (or the adapter that the traffic will be sent/received through). In my case this is Ethernet 2, and is highlighted in red.

From the moment you click on your adapter, Wireshark will begin the packet capture, depending on what you have running on your adapter you will see lots (or maybe little) entries in the top sector.

If you are troubleshooting for FiveM, all you would need to do is load up the FiveM, then go into the server. Wait until you get the error than you can stop the PCAP.

So - Start PCAP > Open FiveM > Get JRP/FiveM Error > Stop PCAP

Saving and uploading Once you have completed the reproductive steps that cause your issue and have collected the required packets, you can stop the capture in the top left.

You will then need to go to File > Save As and save the .pcap file somewhere ready for you to upload to your pcap to the requestor. If the file is to large for Discord then upload it to Google Drive.

That's it you're done! Once you have recorded your pcap either open a ticket stating your issue attaching the .pcap file in your root directory, or reply to the ticket you opened already!
