GTA V YFT Tools for 3ds Max
The GTA V YFT Tool is built for modders who create and edit GTA V fragments (.yft), vehicles, and props in Autodesk 3ds Max. It provides a simple workflow for importing, editing, and exporting YFT files while preserving the original fragment data for clean, game-ready results.
Powered by CodeWalker's .yft.xml format, the tool keeps important data such as physics, skeletons, glass, and cloth intact, updating only the geometry you modify.

@productiontr +2021, read description
@_tobi +2021 only, since it uses Python
I installed the script in 3DS Max 2023 but it got an error everytime I try to open the menu in the Utilities tab:
"-- Runtime error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 1
File "C:\Program Files\Autodesk 3DS Max\3ds Max 2023\Python\Lib\site-packages\shiboken2\files.dir\shibokensupport\__feature__.py", line 148, in '_import' function
File "<string>", line 8, in 'find' function
ImportError: bad magic number in 'gta5_max': b'\xa7\r\r\n'"
How do I solve this?
@EscobarV This is an impressive tool 🤩 I was always upset I had to use super confusing Blender to edit yft files, finally I can use my favorite software for them 😍🥳
Thank you so much 🎉
