Vehicle Animation Maker

Build a GTA 5 vehicle animation (.ycd) from scratch by keyframing vehicle bones like the roof, doors, and hood on a timeline. Pose bones with a transform gizmo, preview the motion in 3D, and export a ready-to-use clip.

How it works

  1. 1Drop a vehicle .yft to load its skeleton and list the animatable bones.
  2. 2Select a bone (roof, doors, hood) and set keyframes on the timeline with the 3D gizmo.
  3. 3Scrub the timeline to preview the animation playing live on the model.
  4. 4Export the result as a .ycd, a zip, or an addon dlc.rpf for your vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

Is the vehicle animation maker free?
Keyframing and previewing a .ycd animation on gtax.dev are free; building and exporting the finished clip uses tokens. You sign in with Discord to use the tool, and there is nothing to install.
Does it run in my browser?
The skeleton decoding, keyframing, and .ycd export all run locally in your browser. Saving a session to history uploads your vehicle files; otherwise nothing is uploaded.
Does it work for FiveM?
Yes. The exported .ycd works for GTA 5 and FiveM, and you can package it into an addon dlc.rpf.
What can I animate?
You can keyframe vehicle bones such as the roof, doors, and hood, building a clip from scratch or starting from an imported .ycd.
