FiveMRides Weapon Studio BETA

A browser tool for FiveM server owners and players to repaint vanilla GTA V weapons and download a ready FiveM resource. You paint directly on the 3D model or on the texture sheet, with layers, patterns, finishes, text and stickers, then watch a GTA ped hold your painted weapon with real game animations. The export is a resource ZIP with the stream folder, metas and fxmanifest. No Blender, CodeWalker or OpenIV needed. Designs you share appear in a public Community gallery where other members can remix them.

Open the Weapon Studio, pick a weapon, paint it, and choose an export mode. Replace mode swaps the vanilla look for everyone on the server. Skins mode gives an add-on weapon with several skins as weapon components, so players choose. Copy the resource folder into your server resources, add ensure with its name to server.cfg, then restart the server and reconnect.

Replace mode rebuilds the weapon's texture so the vanilla weapon looks different for every player on the server. Skins mode adds a new weapon next to the vanilla one, with each painted skin as a weapon component (a collection), so players or your scripts choose which skin to apply. Skins mode does not change the vanilla weapon.

The library has 200+ vanilla weapons (pistols, SMGs, rifles, machine guns, shotguns, snipers, heavy weapons, throwables, melee and props). It also has 463 attachments, all paintable, and painted attachments are included in the export.

Layers with blend modes, patterns, finishes such as chrome, gold and gloss, text in 9 fonts, 43 stickers made by FiveMRides, and a wear effect. 30 ready-made looks are a starting point and stay editable layer by layer. You can paint on the 3D model or on the flat texture sheet.

Yes. The In hand view puts a GTA ped, male or female, in the scene holding your live-painted weapon, with real game animations: idle, aim, fire with muzzle flash and reload. Scenes are Studio, Sunset with GTA palms and Night with bloom. You can save 2048 px renders and a 6 second clip to share.

Yes. Paint a layer, tick Glows in the dark, and the painted areas light up at night in game, in the painted colour. We checked it in game on our test server: at night the painted stripe glows while an unpainted control skin stays dark, and by day it looks like the normal paint.

Describe a style and the AI paints the weapon, and you can keep editing the result layer by layer. AI textures are included only with Studio subscriptions: Max 12 and Unlimited 17 generations a week. They are not for free accounts. Skins painted by the AI were seen in game on our test server.

Describe a material, for example red dragon scales with gold edges, and get a seamless tileable texture: a square 1024 px tile that repeats without a visible seam, because the server fixes the seams. It is saved in your own texture library and you can use it as a pattern on any weapon. AI is included only with Studio subscriptions: Max 12 and Unlimited 17 generations a week, one generation per texture. It is not for free accounts.

A public gallery of weapon skins and seamless AI textures that FiveMRides members made in the Studio, at /weapon-studio/community/, with one public page per design. Sort by Trending, New or Top, filter by category and weapon, search a title or a tag, and use the AI made filter. Like what you see, or remix it.

By default, yes. The box to share to the Community gallery is ticked when you export, and you see it before you pay. Only a picture, the title, the tags and the weapon are public, and other members can remix the layers. A design that contains an image you uploaded is never shared. An admin reviews each design before it shows.

Studio subscribers (Pro, Max or Unlimited) can untick the share box at export. Everyone else sees the box ticked and locked, with a note, before paying. A design with an image you uploaded is never shared, whatever your plan.

Studio subscribers can unpublish their own designs. Without a plan you send a removal request and an admin decides; you see the answer in your shared designs. Removing a design takes it out of the gallery, and the resource you exported stays yours.

Remix opens a copy of any Community design in your editor with every layer editable, so you can change colours, text, stickers or stripes and export it as your own FiveM weapon skin. The remix shows where it started from, and it is shared under the same rules as any design.

Yes to open, edit and save: it costs nothing and uses no AI quota, even if the original was made with AI. Exporting costs the normal 1 credit per export, and Studio Unlimited members export for free.

Yes. Community textures go straight into your patterns, free, and you can use them on any weapon like one of our own patterns.

Nobody by default: your design is shown as by a FiveMRides member. You can add an optional nickname when you export. Nicknames, titles and tags are checked with the design.

An admin reviews each design before it shows, and a rejected design is never shown. Real brands or logos, real people, hate symbols, sexual content, someone else's art and insulting text are rejected. Members can report a design, and enough reports hide it until an admin looks at it.

Painting, the 3D view and the in-hand preview are free with a FiveMRides account. Exporting costs 1 credit per export, which is one resource with any number of sheets. Re-exporting the identical design is free for 7 days, and Studio Unlimited members export for free. Opening and editing a Remix of a Community design is free and uses no AI quota; exporting it costs the normal price.

Skins mode uses standard weapon components, so any script that can give a weapon and apply a component can use it, and the resource README includes plain native calls. We have not tested specific inventory or gun shop scripts, so try a pack on a test server first. Gun shop tint changes no longer recolour an exported weapon, because the painted texture replaces the tint palette.

Yes, on our own FiveM test server: replace mode, and skins mode with several skins and attachments on one weapon. Aiming, reloading and firing on the add-on weapon have not been fully reviewed yet, and Enhanced (gen9) builds have not been tested.
