How to create a custom SAMP launcher with server-side downloads? - S.S. - 2025-07-17

Hello! I’d like to ask how people create their own SAMP launchers that can download custom data from a server (such as skins, vehicles, etc.). I’ve searched a lot online but couldn’t find much information.
Does anyone know how this works or where I can read more about it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there :3

This feature already exists in SA:MP (via open.mp) you can use custom objects/models in your server without needing a custom launcher.
To set it up just make sure you are running an open.mp server (not legacy SA:MP) and do the following:

In your config.json set artwork to true

Code:
"artwork": {
"cdn": "",
"enable": true,
"models_path": "models",
"port": 7777,
"web_server_bind": ""
},

Place your models inside the models folder.

Configure them using a text file named artconfig. It should look something like this:
