Problem
Resource downloads create painful bandwidth spikes.
When players connect, FiveM requests the resource files needed to join the server. Repeated downloads can push the same files through your origin again and again, especially after restarts or updates.
FiveMesh approach
Put a cache proxy in front of player connection downloads.
FiveMesh Cache sits in front of your FiveM resource downloads. Cache hits are served from FiveMesh, cache misses are fetched from your server once, then reused for future players until you purge or refresh them.
Use cases
Built around the work your server already does.
Faster resource downloads
Repeat downloads can be served from FiveMesh instead of asking your origin every time.
Reduced server bandwidth
Your FiveM server is only used when FiveMesh needs a fresh copy of a resource.
Global edge caching
Serve cached resource files through a Cloudflare-powered cache close to players.
One-click cache purge
Purge cached resources when you update files and need players to receive fresh versions.
Cache preload
Warm important resources before players connect after a restart or update.
Analytics and hit ratio
Track requests, bandwidth and how often players are served from cache.
Workflow
Simple enough to start, clear enough to operate.
Player connects
FiveM starts requesting the resource files needed to join your server.
Request goes to FiveMesh
Your server.cfg points resource downloads to the FiveMesh cache URL.
FiveMesh checks the cache
A HIT is served immediately. A MISS fetches from your origin once and stores the file.
Future players reuse cache
Later players receive the same resource from cache until you purge or refresh it.

Comparison
FiveMesh CDN vs FiveMesh Cache
Both improve delivery, but they solve different problems in your FiveM infrastructure.
FiveMesh CDN
- For uploaded media files
- Inventory images
- Phone photos and videos
- Public asset URLs
FiveMesh Cache
- For FiveM resource downloads
- Works as a proxy
- Caches resources automatically
- Optimizes player connection downloads
FAQ
Answers before you start.
01What is a FiveM cache proxy?
A FiveM cache proxy sits between your players and your FiveM server resource files. Players download through FiveMesh, and FiveMesh serves cached files when possible so your origin server is only used when needed.
02Is this different from FiveMesh CDN?
Yes. FiveMesh CDN is for uploaded media files like inventory images, phone photos, videos and public asset URLs. FiveMesh Cache is a proxy for FiveM resource downloads when players connect.
03Do I need to upload my resources manually?
No manual resource upload is required. FiveMesh Cache works as a proxy and fetches resources from your FiveM origin when there is a cache miss.
04What happens when I update a resource?
When resources change, you can purge the cache so players receive the latest files instead of an older cached copy.
05What is cache preload?
Cache preload prepares selected resources in the cache before players connect, which helps reduce the first-download load after updates.
