TOPO Night FiveM minimap (TOPO NIGHT) — postal codes. Hypsometric elevation colouring with directional hillshade, after dark. A hand-rendered custom minimap for FiveM that drops straight into any ESX, ESX Legacy, QBCore, Qbox or standalone GTA V roleplay server. Instant delivery, lifetime updates and Discord support.

How the topo night palette reads in game

Unlike the ten single-hue palettes, TOPO NIGHT colours the land by height: the basin, the flats, the hills and the peaks each get their own band, with a large-scale warm/cool hillshade and contour lines on the land. Players can read the terrain, not just the roads — you can see where the ground rises before you drive into it.

The postal codes base map, explained

The postal grid is rendered directly into the minimap texture. Every postal number and street name is part of the image at the resolution the game samples it at, so there is nothing to draw and nothing to keep in sync. It costs zero client frames and zero server resources, it cannot desync from a script, and it works for a player who has just joined before any resources have streamed. Every player reads the same postal number off the minimap that they call in on the radio.

The trade-off: The numbers are fixed. If you renumber your postals or run a custom postal set you need a re-render rather than a config change — which we do for free, but it is not instant.

What you get

• One drop-in FiveM resource folder: pityus_minimap_mixed_dark
• 78 stream files (DXT5 .ytd texture dictionaries and .ydd geometry) plus fxmanifest.lua and client.lua
• Game resolution 6144 × 9216, rendered at 2× supersampling from a 12288 × 18432 master
• Roughly 113 MB of VRAM in game — identical to the stock GTA V map, so there is no performance cost to switching
• Coloured LOD map so the pause-menu map matches the minimap
• Lifetime updates and Discord support

How this FiveM minimap is rendered

Nothing here is a filter dropped over the stock GTA V map. The source map is taken apart into semantic layers first — ocean, bathymetric depth, coastline, terrain relief, hillshade, three road classes, labels and label halos — and each layer is recoloured independently. That separation is what lets the topo night freeways stay bright while the residential grid stays quiet, instead of every pixel shifting hue together. Water depth is a real bathymetric gradient with contour lines, the coastline carries a glow that hugs the shore, and the road network is separated into three tiers so freeways stay continuous while the city fabric never turns to mush.

The exact TOPO NIGHT palette

Every band below is a separate layer in the renderer, which is why the twelve palettes look like twelve different maps rather than twelve tints of one. These are the values used to build this map.

Installation — two minutes, any framework

1. Drop the pityus_minimap_mixed_dark folder into your server's resources directory.
2. Add ensure pityus_minimap_mixed_dark to your server.cfg.
3. Restart the server and rejoin. Tell players to clear their FiveM cache if they still see the old map.

No framework dependency, no database, no configuration. Works with ESX, ESX Legacy, QBCore, Qbox, vRP and standalone servers, and sits happily alongside any HUD, radar or postal script you already run.

Which servers run this one

Off-road, hunting, rally, search-and-rescue and military servers, and any community where the terrain itself matters to gameplay.

Worth knowing before you buy: It is the busiest map in the set. On a HUD with many overlapping overlays the extra terrain detail can become visual noise.

Also available

The same TOPO NIGHT palette is also built on the No Postals and Google Style base maps, so you can change base map without changing the look of your server. All 12 colour themes — Black, White, Gray, Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, Orange, Purple, Pink, TOPO Night and TOPO Day — are available across all three base maps in this category.
