FiveM YTD Optimizer is a free online tool from FiveMRides that shrinks a vehicle resource by 40-70%: it compresses YTD textures (BC7, BC5, DXT1/5) under the 16 MB streaming limit that causes texture loss and tanker spawns, and can decimate the YFT model in Blender. Upload a car or a whole pack ZIP, pick a preset, download the optimized resource. Works for ESX, QBCore and standalone servers; a free account and credits are required to download.
Guides: texture loss fix, car not spawning, optimization explained. Prefer a done-for-you car? Every vehicle in the store is already optimized.
Resource Optimizer BETA
Optimize textures, compress YTD files & boost your FiveM server performance
Upload Resource
Drag & drop your resource file here, or click to browse
Upload a FiveM resource ZIP, car pack, or individual YTD texture file
Limits: 5 GB per upload, car packs up to 50 vehicles. Bigger collection? Split it into several ZIPs and run them one after another.
Upload
Drop in your car file: a single vehicle, a whole car pack, or just one YTD texture. That is all we need.
Configure (optional)
Pick a preset: Optimized (top quality, smaller) or Maximum (smallest files). Optimize textures, 3D models, or both. Or just use the default and go.
Download
Get your optimized car back as a ready ZIP. Replace the old folder on your server, restart, and enjoy a lighter, faster server.
⚡ What optimizing does for you
Heavy cars slow down your whole server. Optimizing fixes that automatically, with only minimal quality loss:
- Stops texture loss the bug where cars turn white or invisible for everyone when too many big textures load at once.
- Reduces server lag and FPS drops oversized car textures are the number one cause of FiveM lag.
- Shrinks file size 40 to 70% smaller downloads for your players and less disk on your server.
- Keeps you under the 16MB limit single textures over 16MB simply fail to load in FiveM. We keep every file under it.

Optimization Settings
If a texture file is still over FiveM's 16 MiB streaming limit after optimization, keep downscaling it until it fits. This guarantees it can stream in-game, at the cost of some texture detail. Off by default.

Model Optimization
Why is one model still high-poly? It's intentional.
Every FiveM vehicle ships with two 3D models, and we optimize them differently on purpose:
vehicle.yft— the in-game model. This is what the game renders 99% of the time (driving, traffic, any normal distance), so it is what drives your FPS. We cut its polygons hard and add 4 LOD levels so distant cars get even cheaper to render. This is where the performance gain comes from.vehicle_hi.yft— the close-up model. The game only swaps this one in when the camera is right up against the car (your own vehicle up close, photo mode). We keep it at full quality on purpose, so your car stays pixel-perfect in close-ups.
So one model heavily reduced and the other kept high-poly is exactly right: a smooth server in traffic AND a gorgeous car up close. Optimizers that crush everything leave vehicles looking faceted up close — we don't.
How to install:
- Extract the ZIP file
- Replace the original resource folder on your server
- Restart your server and enjoy better FPS!
