YTD Studio - FiveM GTA V Texture Editor & Repack Tool

YTD Studio — The Local Texture Editor for FiveM & GTA V Modders

YTD Studio is a desktop web-app built for FiveM and GTA V modders who need fast, reliable control over their texture dictionaries. Open .ytd, .ydr, .yft, and .ydd files, inspect every texture inside, swap them out, and repack a working game-ready file — all without leaving your browser, and without ever uploading your files anywhere.

✅ Key Features

• Open any resource — texture dictionaries (.ytd), drawables (.ydr), fragments (.yft), and drawable dictionaries (.ydd)
• Recursive MLO folder scan — point at a folder and every resource inside loads automatically
• Extract embedded textures — even textures buried inside a prop's drawable, so you can swap a wall painting or sign without extra tools
• Bulk compress — resize + Lanczos filtering + power-of-2 snapping, with live size-savings preview before you commit
• One-click texture replace — drop a PNG onto any texture slot. It's auto-resized and re-encoded to the original GPU format (DXT1 / DXT5 / BC7 / etc.) via an auto-downloaded texconv.exe — no manual DDS conversion required
• Real export, validated — hit Export and your changes are baked back into an actual working .ytd / .ydr file, re-parsed automatically to confirm it's valid before you drop it into your stream/ folder
• Revert anytime — restore the original texture with one click if a replacement doesn't look right
• Full-screen viewer — before/after compare, arrow-key navigation, and a fast grid view with file-type colour badges

⚙️ How It Works

1. Double-click the included launcher — it checks your Python install, installs dependencies automatically on first run, and opens the app in your browser
2. Drag and drop your .ytd/.ydr files (or paste a folder path) to load everything in parallel
3. Browse, compress, or replace textures directly in the grid
4. Export — get back a real, game-ready file

🔒 100% Local — Your Files Never Leave Your PC

YTD Studio runs entirely on your own machine. There's no cloud processing, no file upload to a server, and no Java dependency — just Python running a local web server on your desktop.

💻 Requirements

• Windows PC
• Python 3.10+ (the launcher will guide you through installation if it's missing)

👥 Who It's For

Built for FiveM server owners, MLO designers, and GTA V modders who need to reskin walls, floors, props, and interiors quickly — without juggling CodeWalker, manual DDS conversion, and multiple separate tools.
