CINEMATIC SEQUENCE CREATION

Stunt Director can combine several synchronized animations into a complete scene.

Actors can be divided into independent groups, allowing multiple fights, background actions or cinematic interactions to play at the same time. Every group can use its own animations, placement and effect timeline.

Sequences can be previewed, saved, replayed and loaded back into the editor for additional changes.

PRECISE EFFECT TIMING

Weapon and blood effects use animation-based timelines.

You can visually scrub through the reference animation, place several triggers at precise moments, select the affected actor and preview the complete result before launching the final sequence.

Available Actions Include:

Weapon equip, fire, reload, holster and removal
Physical weapon throws toward another actor
Configurable damage, projectile speed and burst timing
Muzzle flash and muzzle lighting
Localized body blood and blood spray
Independent effect markers for different actors
Reusable synchronized effect profiles

ACTOR MANAGEMENT

The standalone Ped Control panel can be opened at any time with F6.

It allows you to clone actors, preserve their exact appearance and equipped weapons, add modified peds to the roster, switch between controlled actors with number keys and delete individual clones safely.

ROCKSTAR EDITOR

Stunt Director can automatically start Rockstar Editor recording before a sequence begins.

A three-second countdown provides time for preparation, the interface closes before playback and the resulting clip is saved when the sequence ends.

Automatic recording can be disabled in Settings.
