PackBench

Bundle models, textures, and metas into a streaming-ready resource zip.

PackBench assembles a correctly-structured FiveM resource ZIP from raw asset files. Drop your YFT, YTD, and meta files onto the builder — it generates the folder layout, writes fxmanifest.lua, and zips everything ready to deploy.

Output structure

stream/
  your_vehicle.yft
  your_vehicle_hi.yft
  your_vehicle.ytd
  vehicles.meta
  handling.meta
  carvariations.meta
  carcols.meta
fxmanifest.lua

Use PackBench after Easy Meta — you can import the meta files directly from the Easy Meta export.

Frequently asked questions

What does PackBench build?

A correctly-structured, streaming-ready FiveM resource ZIP — it lays out the stream/ folder, writes fxmanifest.lua with the right data_file entries, and zips everything ready to deploy.

Does PackBench write fxmanifest.lua for me?

Yes. It generates fxmanifest.lua, including the data_file lines for your meta files and the files{} block for the streamed assets, so nothing is missed.

What files do I drop in?

Your raw assets — the .yft (and optional _hi.yft high-LOD), .ytd, and the vehicle .meta files. PackBench arranges them into the correct folder structure.

Can I use it with Easy Meta output?

Yes — run PackBench after Easy Meta and import the meta files directly from the Easy Meta export to bundle a complete resource.
