How it works

  1. Drop an image (PNG, JPG or WebP)
  2. Pick the zone: torso, head, left or right arm, left or right leg
  3. Position it by dragging on the ped in 3D, not on a flat rectangle
  4. Generate male and female variants as needed
  5. Export and drop the folder into resources/

The dragging is the part that matters. A GTA tattoo is a decal inside the UV rectangle of a single zone, placed with uvPos, scale and rotation. Most tools show you that flat rectangle and you find out where it actually landed after you install it. Here you drag on the body, and the conversion uses the same math that gets exported.


What’s in the pack

  • stream/PACKNAME_overlays.ytd - the texture dictionary the game streams
  • PACKNAME_overlays.xml - the collection: zone, position and scale per design
  • fxmanifest.lua - registers the collection with the game
  • tattoos.json - catalogue for illenium-appearance / fivem-appearance
  • example.lua - test commands to apply one by hand
  • README.md - install steps and troubleshooting

The catalogues are the point. Other tools hand you the texture and leave you with the rest.
Without the shop catalogue the tattoo exists in game but doesn’t appear in any menu, which from the server owner’s side is the same as it not working.

Works with illenium-appearance and fivem-appearance out of the box. For anything else, the XML is standard and example.lua shows you how to apply one directly.


On your files

The original image never leaves your machine. Cropping and compression run locally. Only the already-compressed texture goes to the server for one step, building the .ytd, which is a RAGE container no browser can write, and it’s deleted as soon as the pack is generated.

The exported resource is a normal FiveM resource. It lives on your server, with no DRM and no calls back to us at runtime.


Free to use
