Hey all! This is my first resource release on the forums - it’s a fairly simple but useful script that allows you to record your in-game footage with Rockstar Editor through a clean UI (courtesy of MenuV). I noticed a lot of people in the community asking for something like this, so I decided to make it myself. It also has a logging feature which logs to a file and/or server console (configurable) whenever someone starts/deletes/saves a recording. I hope you all enjoy and find this useful!
Config.command = "rockstar" -- Change this to whatever you want the command to be
-- [[ Logs ]] --
Config.enableLogs = true -- Change this to false if you want to disable logs
Config.logToFile = true -- Change this to false if you do not want to log to a file // NOTE: Must have a 'log.txt' file in the resource folder.
Config.printToConsole = true -- Change this to false if you do not want every event to print to server console
-- [[ Logs ]] --
-- [[ Locale ]] --
-- Menu Slider Buttons
Config.buttonRecord = "Start Recording"
Config.buttonSaveClip = "Save Recording"
Config.buttonDelClip = "Discard Recording"
Config.buttonEditor = "Open Editor"
-- Notifications
Config.record = "Started recording"
Config.saveclip = "Saved recording"
Config.delclip = "Discarded recording"
Config.editor = "Opening Rockstar Editor"
-- Logs
Config.logRecord = " began recording"
Config.logSaveClip = " saved a recording"
Config.logDelClip = " discarded a recording"
Config.logEditor = " opened Rockstar Editor"

If you have any questions or would like to report a bug, please feel free to reply to this forum post or create an Issue on GitHub. Thank you!
Yes, I do believe you can open the R* Editor from the pause menu. However, this script adds the recording and saving functionality using FiveM natives. Thank you for your comment!
Unfortunately, it does not - that’s a FiveM issue that has been occurring in more recent server builds. I’m surprised that the issue has still not been addressed by them. Sadly, the only solution for that is to roll back to an older server build. I hope this helps, and thank you for your comment.
I actually appreciate the answer on this. Thought ive tried everything… but never thought about trying to roll the server back - even if its just to capture a video then bring it back.
Do you have any suggestions on what version to roll back to?
Thank you for the free resource as well, using menuV looks great!
Yeah, no problem - I think people have made it work by going all the way back to build 1604 (and maybe turning off OneSync?). Glad you like the resource!
Eh, it can still be useful if you need to capture in-game footage (like, if you’re trying to make a server trailer). You can swap to an older server build and use it fine to get some clips.
This seems like a great alternative to hopping through vMenu sections to start recording; i feel like i could set up a keybind for this in my radialmenu and i might be able to start recording faster. Thank you!
Hm, that’s strange. F3 is not a keybind in this script. Type /rockstar (by default) and start recording. Then, when you want to stop recording, press “save recording”.
