Exbyte Depot is a fast, native desktop client for Perforce Helix Core — real 3D asset previews, one-click exclusive locks, offline work, and live teammate activity. All the power of your Perforce server, none of the P4V pain.
Purpose-built for game studios on Perforce
Perforce is the industry standard for a reason. Exbyte Depot keeps every bit of its power and finally makes it feel good to use.
Rotate the actual mesh inside a .uasset right in the app — plus embedded thumbnails, image, audio and video previews. See what you're committing before you commit it.
Binary .uasset files can't be merged. Take an exclusive lock so only you edit a mesh or material at a time — and see everyone else's locks live. No more overwritten work.
On a plane or the VPN's down? Keep editing. Exbyte Depot scans your workspace and reconciles adds, edits and deletes into a changelist when you're back — just like P4V, but nicer.
Lives in your system tray and sends a native notification the moment a teammate submits — with their message. A banner tells you when you're behind, one click to Get Latest.
Draft a clear changelist message from your selected files, and get a plain-English summary of what any source file does — in your interface language.
Browse the Depot and your Workspace as a tree and see exactly how much every file and folder weighs — heaviest first. Find what's bloating your repo in seconds.
Fix a header or a config right before commit — no external IDE needed. Full syntax highlighting, line numbers, and a proper editor, not a grey textbox.
Labels, streams, integrate / merge / copy, jobs, file history with blame & diff, clean, .p4ignore, get-revision, shelve/unshelve — the depth is all there when you need it.
Ships as a signed installer with a built-in updater. New versions land in place — the whole team stays current without chasing downloads.
We're not replacing your Perforce server — we're replacing the client you look at it through. Exbyte Depot keeps every bit of Perforce power your studio depends on and rebuilds the experience around how artists and engineers really work: visual, fast, and forgiving.
.uasset are one click, and everyone's locks are visible.No Electron bloat. A tiny signed installer, instant startup, and a UI that stays out of your way.
