FiveM Object List

How objects work in FiveM

A FiveM object, called a prop, is any non-vehicle non-ped model the game streams into the world: a bench, a barrier, a street lamp, an ATM. Each one is identified by a model name like prop_bench_01a or prop_atm_01. To spawn it you convert that name to a hash with joaat("prop_atm_01") (or the CfxLua backtick literal `prop_atm_01`), load the model with RequestModel, wait for HasModelLoaded, then call CreateObject. The same names work on ESX, QBCore and standalone, because props come from the game files, not the framework.

The CreateObject signature is CreateObject(modelHash, x, y, z, isNetwork, netMissionEntity, doorFlag). Set isNetwork to true when other players should see the prop, false for a client-only placement. After spawning, PlaceObjectOnGroundProperly drops the prop onto the surface below and FreezeEntityPosition stops players from pushing it around. Props created by a resource are not always removed when it stops, so dynamic props should be tracked and deleted with DeleteObject, which the config snippet lower down handles.

Lua snippets: spawn and clean up props

The minimal pattern: hash the model, request it, wait, then CreateObject. The snippet below spawns one barrier, headings it, and drops it onto the ground.

-- client.lua | spawn a single prop at a fixed position
CreateThread(function()
    local model = joaat("prop_barrier_work05") -- model name from the tables above

    RequestModel(model)
    while not HasModelLoaded(model) do Wait(0) end

    local obj = CreateObject(model, 150.0, -1040.0, 29.0,
        true,   -- isNetwork: sync the prop to other players
        false,  -- netMissionEntity
        false)  -- doorFlag (only true for door archetypes)

    SetEntityHeading(obj, 90.0)
    PlaceObjectOnGroundProperly(obj)
    FreezeEntityPosition(obj, true)   -- stop it being nudged by players
    SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(model)
end)

Production resources read props from a config table so server owners can move them without touching code, and they delete every spawned prop when the resource stops. This is the pattern mapping and job scripts use.

-- config.lua + client.lua | place props from a config table, clean up on stop
Config.Props = {
    { model = "prop_roadcone02a",    coords = vec3(200.0, -1000.0, 29.0), heading = 0.0 },
    { model = "prop_barrier_work05", coords = vec3(203.0, -1000.0, 29.0), heading = 90.0 },
}

local spawned = {}

CreateThread(function()
    for _, p in ipairs(Config.Props) do
        local model = joaat(p.model)
        RequestModel(model)
        while not HasModelLoaded(model) do Wait(0) end

        local obj = CreateObject(model, p.coords.x, p.coords.y, p.coords.z, false, false, false)
        SetEntityHeading(obj, p.heading)
        PlaceObjectOnGroundProperly(obj)
        FreezeEntityPosition(obj, true)
        SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(model)
        spawned[#spawned + 1] = obj
    end
end)

-- delete the props when the resource stops so nothing is left in the world
AddEventHandler("onResourceStop", function(res)
    if res ~= GetCurrentResourceName() then return end
    for _, obj in ipairs(spawned) do
        if DoesEntityExist(obj) then DeleteObject(obj) end
    end
end)

If a model name might not exist on your build, validate it before requesting. IsModelValid and IsModelInCdimage both return false for a name the game does not know, so you can skip the RequestModel loop instead of hanging on a model that will never load.

-- validate a model name before you request it
local function IsPropValid(name)
    local model = joaat(name)
    return IsModelValid(model) and IsModelInCdimage(model)
end

print(IsPropValid("prop_atm_01"))       -- true
print(IsPropValid("prop_not_a_real_1")) -- false, skip the RequestModel

Finding more props beyond this list

This page curates 98 of the props scripts reuse most, but GTA V ships over 21,000 streamable models. When you need a specific one, four references cover the rest. Pleb Masters: Forge is the best browser, searchable with a 3D preview of every prop. The DurtyFree gta-v-data-dumps ObjectList.ini is every model name in one text file, ideal for grepping, and it is the source these names were verified against. Vespura's objects list is a fast search tool. In-game, an object spooner menu or CodeWalker shows the model name of any prop you point at, which is the quickest way to identify something you can already see in the world.

Scripts that place and interact with objects

If you would rather place and interact with props from a menu than code CreateObject by hand, these Var FiveM scripts do it for you. The FiveM supermarket builder script has an in-game 3D store builder with a gizmo, grid snap and 143 buyable props across 24 editor categories, up to 500 props per store, no coordinates typed by hand. The FiveM prop interaction script registers hold-to-confirm prompts on every prop of a model hash, with a ready-made mapping onto 80+ vanilla props like ATMs, vending machines, safes and gas pumps. The placeable ATM script ships a free-placement mode with a ghost preview and raycast positioning to drop an ATM prop anywhere, and Var-PosterJob places persistent poster props at street spots, custom images rendered live via DUI. Var-Property adds interactive in-house props with animations across its interiors. Var-Property is ESX only, Var-Interact is standalone, and the placeable ATM and Var-PosterJob run on ESX, QBCore and standalone.
