EUP or add-on clothing invisible? Fix it

Clothing that shows as an invisible body part, a floating head or a crash is rarely the clothing itself. It is usually a missing texture, a collection that never loaded, or the per-gender limit on clothing collections.

How FiveM add-on clothing loads

A clothing pack adds a collection to the freemode peds: drawables (.ydd), textures (.ytd) and a .ymt per gender that tells the game which items exist in which slot. The file names follow a strict pattern of collection name, slot and index, and the game finds textures by name.

The usual causes

  1. Files outside stream/. Only the stream folder is streamed.
  2. Names that do not follow the pattern. One renamed file breaks the link between a drawable and its textures, and the item shows as invisible or see-through.
  3. Missing textures. Every drawable needs its textures; packs trimmed by hand often lose some.
  4. The YMT limit. Each pack is a collection, and GTA loads a limited number of collections per gender. Past the limit, peds of that gender crash while loading.
  5. Oversized textures. Very large clothing textures may load late or not at all, especially with many players on screen.

How to check

  • Start the server with only the clothing pack and your framework. If it works, another pack is clashing or pushing you over the limit.
  • If every ped of one gender crashes, count your clothing collections before blaming the pack.
  • Open the pack and check that every drawable has textures with the same base name.

Merge instead of add

Fewer, larger collections avoid the limit. Merging many small packs into one collection, or replacing unused vanilla items, keeps room for what matters. For your own designs on freemode clothing, paint them on the 3D ped and export them as one resource.

Frequently asked

Why are only some EUP items invisible?

Each drawable has its own textures. If some textures are missing or named wrong, those items show the body through the clothing or nothing at all.

Adding a clothing pack crashes every female ped. Why?

GTA only loads a limited number of clothing collections (.ymt) per gender, and the female side usually runs out first. The crash follows the gender, not the item.

Can I convert single-player EUP to FiveM?

Yes, but the files must be repacked as a FiveM clothing resource with the right collection names and a manifest that streams them. Copying the RPF content into stream rarely works on its own.
