Vehicle or ped model not found
A vehicle or character does not exist on your server, so nothing can spawn it.
Do this first
Check its script is running, and that its name matches everywhere it is written.
What it means
The model hash is not in the game's index, so nothing can spawn it. The native returns false or the spawn returns 0, usually with no error at all — the vehicle simply never appears.
What causes it
Ordered by how often it is the answer.
- 1
The name in vehicles.meta and the .yft filename disagree
The three names that must match are the file, the
modelNamein vehicles.meta, and thetxdNamepointing at the texture dictionary. Any mismatch and the model does not resolve. - 2
The resource is not started
An addon vehicle in a resource that is not ensured.
- 3
The stream folder is not where the manifest says
It must be declared, and on Linux
Stream/is notstream/. - 4
The DLC build is not enforced
A vehicle from a newer DLC on a server pinned to an older gamebuild does not exist. See the gamebuild entry.
- 5
Spawning before the model loaded
The model exists but
RequestModelhad not finished. Different problem, same symptom.
How to tell which one is yours
print(IsModelInCdimage(hash), IsModelValid(hash))
false, false means the model genuinely is not on this server — a naming, streaming or gamebuild problem. true, true means it exists and the spawn is a timing problem instead.
Where to look
vehicles.meta, the filenames in stream/, and the fxmanifest's data-file declarations.
How to fix it
-- fxmanifest.lua
files { 'data/vehicles.meta', 'data/carvariations.meta' }
data_file 'VEHICLE_METADATA_FILE' 'data/vehicles.meta'
data_file 'VEHICLE_VARIATION_FILE' 'data/carvariations.meta'Then confirm modelName in vehicles.meta matches the .yft filename exactly, lowercase, and that the .ytd is beside it in stream/.
Still stuck on your own code?
This page is what this error usually means. Paste your console into Server Fixer and it will rank everything in it and tell you what to do first, and if you would rather not touch it, ORBIE can repair the script and hand the resource back ready to drop in.
