Convert GTA V files to CodeWalker XML and back
Game files keep their data packed, and names as hashes: to read or edit a .ymap, .ytyp, .ymt or a model you need it as XML. XML Converter does what CodeWalker's RPF Explorer does with "Export XML" and "Import XML", on the tools server, so it works on any computer.
Drop game files to get their XML, a model's textures as .dds in a folder beside it, the way CodeWalker and Sollumz lay them out. Drop the XML back (named x.ymap.xml, x.ydr.xml) to get the game files; each one is read back before you download it.
How XML Converter works
- Drop game files to see them as XML, or CodeWalker / Sollumz XML.
- Read or copy the XML; a model's textures come as .dds beside it.
- Download the XML, or the game files made from yours.
You get: CodeWalker XML (with each model's textures as .dds), or game files checked by reading them back.
Every tool is free to try: 5 exports a day, files up to 25 MB. The paid plans raise the limits. See the plans.
Questions
- How do I convert a .ymap to XML?
- Drop the .ymap: its XML shows at once and downloads as x.ymap.xml. Converting to XML is free.
- Does it work with Sollumz?
- Yes. Sollumz reads and writes the same CodeWalker XML: drop x.ydr.xml (or .yft, .ydd, .ybn) with its folder of .dds textures to get the game file, without CodeWalker.
- Why does the XML say hash_ instead of a name?
- A game file stores only the hash of each name. Drop the resource's models and .ytyp with it and their names come back; a hash_ name converts back as it is.
- Do I need to convert .meta files?
- No. vehicles.meta, handling.meta, carcols.meta and the other .meta files are XML already, and FiveM loads them as they are. To check which data_file lines they need, see the Vehicle Pack Check.
- Can I convert files inside an .rpf?
- Take them out first with the RPF Reader, then drop them here.
In GTA Explorer

- GTA V props and map models: the game's props, by name and hash
