Timeline
One timeline, everything follows
Each entity has its track, a master playhead drives the whole scene. Scrub, loop, cut: the world rebuilds exactly at the requested frame, because every engine is a pure function of time. No more “only works on playback”.
- Actor, vehicle, camera, prop, audio and text tracks
- Frame-by-frame scrub, loop and real-time playback
- Atomic project save, with .bak recovery
TimelineCameras
Real cameras, not a freecam
Place cameras like scene objects, set the focal length and depth of field, and cut your shots directly on the timeline. The view goes through the selected camera — what you frame is what you film.
- FOV and depth of field per camera
- Cuts and transitions placed on the timeline
- Export to the Rockstar Editor for the final render
CamerasActors
Direct peds like performers
Anims, moods, weapons, synced scenes, Menyoo-style task lists, waypoint routes that walk or drive depending on the ped's state. You even become the ped to record a performance by hand.
- Animation library and synced scenes
- Real weapons, moods, task AI and multi-step routes
- Performance recording: play the scene, it's captured
ActorsVehicles
Cars that really replay
No physics tricks: GTA's native vehicle recording is encoded to .yvr, then replayed. Add events on the clip — doors, wheels, explosion — and playback fires them while a scrub rebuilds the state without replaying the crash.
- Native .yvr recording and replay
- Clip events: doors, windows, tyres, explosion
- Seated occupants, auto driver, entity attachments

Monthly or Lifetime
No stripped-down version: the tool is the same in both plans. Monthly exists for a one-off shoot or a tight budget; Lifetime, for those who settle in — and it includes the Player.

Film Maker Pro Player
Reader · needs FMP Pro
Not an editor — a companion that plays back scenes already built in Film Maker Pro. Perfect for servers that want to turn their projects into cutscenes: RP missions, scripted intros, story moments (API included). It depends on Film Maker Pro to create the scenes; on its own it only reads them.
Best for: Servers running RP cutscenes
