FiveM: So beheben Sie Texturverlust

Texture loss in FiveM can ruin the immersive experience for players, making the game feel choppy and unpolished. This guide will walk you through actionable steps to identify and fix texture loss issues in FiveM, ensuring smooth gameplay.

Why Does Texture Loss Happen in FiveM?

Texture loss occurs when your system cannot load game textures properly. This can be due to various factors such as:

• Hardware Limitations: Low RAM, VRAM, or CPU bottlenecks.
• Serverkonfiguration: High resource usage on the server side.
• Mod Overload: Running multiple scripts or MLOs simultaneously.
• Client-Side Issues: Outdated drivers, settings, or corrupted files.

Before diving into solutions, pinpoint the possible cause to avoid unnecessary troubleshooting.

Step 1: Optimize FiveM Settings

The first step is to ensure that your FiveM settings are optimized for your system. Follow these steps:

Do it like this:

1. Lower Texture Quality:
   • Open FiveM.
   • Gehe zu Settings > Graphics.
   • Reduce Texture Quality Zu Normal oder Low.
2. Adjust Extended Texture Budget:
   • Increase the Erweitertes Texturbudget slider slightly to allocate more VRAM.
   • Avoid maxing it out; leave headroom for other assets.
3. Disable Unnecessary Features:
   • Turn off Extended Distance Scaling Und High Detail Streaming While Flying.
   • These settings consume significant VRAM and can cause texture pop-ins.

Step 2: Update Drivers

Outdated GPU drivers can contribute to texture loss. To update:

1. NVIDIA:
   • Offen GeForce Experience
   • Check for driver updates and install the latest version.
2. AMD:
   • Verwenden Sie die Radeon Software tool to update your drivers.
3. Integrated Graphics:
   • For laptops or systems with Intel integrated graphics, update through the Intel Driver Support Assistant.

Step 3: Clear FiveM Cache

Corrupted cache files can cause texture loss. Here’s how to clear them:

In short:

1. Navigieren Sie zum FiveM Data Folder:
   • Drücken Windows + R, type %localappdata%\FiveM\, and press Enter.
2. Öffnen Sie die Data Folder:
   • Delete the following folders:
     • cache
     • cache.xml
3. Restart FiveM:
   • Launch FiveM to let it rebuild the cache.

Pro Tip: Avoid deleting the game folder, as it contains critical files.

Step 4: Check Your Server Resources

If you’re a server owner or admin, ensure the server isn’t overloaded with resources:

1. Optimize MLOs and Scripts:
   • Use lightweight MLOs.
   • Remove unused scripts or resources.
2. Monitor Resource Usage:
   • Verwenden Sie die Resmon command in the server console to monitor resource usage.
   • Ensure no resource exceeds 5ms.
3. Reduce Streaming Intensity:
   • Compress textures and ensure assets are optimized for FiveM.

Step 5: Adjust System Settings

Fine-tuning your PC can also help reduce texture loss.

1. Increase Virtual Memory:
   • Drücken Windows + Pause/Break to open system properties.
   • Klicken Sie auf Advanced System Settings > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory.
   • Set a custom size (e.g., 1.5x your RAM).
2. Close Background Programs:
   • Offen Task Manager and end unnecessary programs hogging memory or CPU.
3. Optimize Power Settings:
   • Switch to High-Performance Mode in Windows Power Settings.

Step 6: Use Graphic Mods Wisely

Graphic mods like NVE or QuantV enhance visuals but can strain your system.

1. Install Only What’s Necessary:
   • Avoid installing every optional pack provided.
   • Stick to low or medium settings for realistic graphics mods.
2. Adjust Graphic Mod Settings:
   • Lower resolution textures if your system struggles to handle the default settings.

Step 7: Network Optimization

Texture loss can sometimes result from poor network performance. Optimize your connection:

1. Switch to a Wired Connection:
   • Use Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi for better stability.
2. Reduce Packet Loss:
   • Use a tool like PingPlotter to identify network issues.
   • Contact your ISP if you notice high packet loss.
3. Prioritize Network Bandwidth:
   • Ensure no other devices are consuming large amounts of bandwidth while playing.

So, just use LAN/Ethernet – avoid WiFi at all costs.

Step 8: Hardware Upgrades (If Necessary)

If none of the above steps work, consider upgrading your hardware:

1. RAM:
   • Upgrade to at least 16GB if you’re running multiple mods or MLOs.
2. Graphics Card (GPU):
   • Use a GPU with at least 6GB VRAM for smoother texture streaming.
3. SSD:
   • Install FiveM on an SSD to reduce loading times and improve texture streaming.
