Feature · Video to YCD · FiveM
Turn any video into a FiveM-ready animation
Need to convert video to YCD for custom emotes on your FiveM server?
EasyFiveM Animation Generator uploads a short clip, runs AI motion capture, lets you trim and adjust in the browser,
and exports a drop-in resource — .ycd, fxmanifest.lua, and a one-line client trigger.
No Blender, no CodeWalker, no per-emote subscription.
Three steps. No rigging.
- Upload your video — phone footage, TikTok clip, or gameplay capture. One clearly visible person works best.
- AI captures the motion — we extract the performance, retarget to the GTA V skeleton, and bake a loopable clip.
- Drop it on your server — download a complete FiveM ZIP with stream YCD, manifest, and
client.lua. Addensure my_animand play.
Edit before you export
Unlike upload-only converters, Prop Maker-style editing applies here too:
- Trim — cut start/end on a timeline before export.
- Speed — slow down or speed up the clip (0.25×–3×).
- Pose fixes — nudge spine, arms, legs or head when a frame needs correction.
- Live preview — scrub frames in the browser before spending credits on export.

FAQ
What video formats work?
MP4, WEBM, and MOV. Keep clips under ~15 seconds with the full body visible for best results.
Do I need Blender or CodeWalker?
No. Upload in the browser, download a ready-to-use FiveM resource ZIP.
Does it work with rpemotes or dpemotes?
Yes. Output uses standard GTA V animation dictionary format — add the dict name from your export to your emote menu like any community pack.
Can I use this on a commercial RP server?
Yes. You own the generated .ycd and resource. Test on a dev server first, as with any custom asset.
