Simple Camera — Cinematic Toolkit for GTA V
A free-camera and photo-mode plugin for Grand Theft Auto V. Detach the camera from your character and fly anywhere to frame screenshots and cinematic shots, or switch to Camera Sequence mode to author keyframed camera moves and render them out for video.
Key Features
• Free Camera mode — a 6-DOF flycam that can switch into a fully physics-based drone mode with tunable drag, acceleration, gravity, and auto-banking.
• Walk Mode: terrain-following at a fixed eye height for ground-level tracking shots
• Acrobatic rotation engine: quaternion-based — no gimbal lock when rolling through zenith
• Follow Target: lock onto any ped, vehicle, or object with optional rigid-mount
• Procedural shake: 4 named presets (Subtle, Handheld, Vehicle, Earthquake) plus a fully custom mode, with speed-coupled amplitude and frequency
• Lens controls: custom FOV, roll, zoom speed, look sensitivity
• Camera Sequence mode — author smooth keyframed camera animations
• Cubic Hermite splines with time-aware tangents — buttery-smooth motion through every keyframe
• 5 ease curves: Linear, EaseInOut, EaseIn, EaseOut, Hold
• Seamless loop closure — playback wraps with no snap and no velocity jerk
• Entity lock — anchor keyframes to a moving vehicle or ped; the whole camera arc rides along with full position + rotation rigidity. Lag-free via native camera attachment during locked playback — perfect tracking shots from cars, bikes, helicopters, or walking peds
• Effect events — schedule procedural camera shake effects.
• F6 / F7 / F8 / F9 hotkeys — capture, play, stop, jump to next keyframe
• In-world markers + path preview — see your camera trajectory live in the world; locked keyframes ride along with the entity in real-time
• Vehicle ghost clips recording — record vehicles that creates their own timeline to easily create vehicle active shots.
• Render to Images — export a sequence as a numbered PNG (lossless) or JPEG frame set, ready to assemble into video
• Multi-sample motion blur with shutter angle, blur strength, and highlight-boost controls
• Full time & weather control
• Minute-accurate time of day with pause and time-lapse modes
• 14 weather types with smooth blending (e.g. "rain just starting", "fog dissipating")
• Freeze Entire World — pause peds, vehicles, particles, and physics for clean composition
• IGCS Connector support — direct integration with ReShade's IGCS Connector addon for professional multi-frame depth-of-field photography
• Multi-frame bokeh DoF for cinematic out-of-focus rendering
• Built-in DoF fallback (works without ReShade)
• Automatic session handoff — no manual workflow juggling
Installation
1. Install ScriptHookV and an ASI Loader.
2. Place SimpleCamera.asi into your main Grand Theft Auto V directory.
3. (Optional) For IGCS support: install ReShade with full Add-on support, place IgcsConnector.addon64 in the game folder, and install IgcsDof.fx in your reshade-shaders/shaders folder.
4. (Optional) Edit SimpleCamera.ini next to the ASI to remap the menu key (default: F5).
FiveM: copy SimpleCamera.asi into your FiveM\FiveM.app\plugins folder. Same optional IGCS steps apply.
Controls
Keyboard / Mouse
• F5 — open / close menu
• W / A / S / D — fly forward / left / back / right
• Space / Ctrl — ascend / descend
• Q / E — roll left / right
• Mouse — look around · Mouse scroll — adjust flying speed
• Shift — speed boost · Alt — precision / slow
• + / - — zoom in / out
• F6 / F7 / F8 / F9 — sequence capture / play / stop / next keyframe
Controller
• LB + RB — open / close menu · LB + B — exit flycam (camera off)
• Left Stick — move · Right Stick — look
• RT / LT — up / down · RB / LB — roll right / left
• D-Pad Up / Down — zoom
Compatibility
Works with GTA V Legacy, GTA V Enhanced, and FiveM. Some FiveM servers restrict time/weather mutations — those features are easy to disable in the menu when needed.

3.2.1 - FiveM fixes,
3.3 - FiveM wheel rotation fixes & QOL updates.

@Nemsei works for both legacy and enhanced. No diffs
Event effects are tied to the timeline, if you want them to be visible, scroll time back to 0:00
@Safari4831
I was using an outdated version of ScriptHook. After updating it, all of my problems were resolved.
I also have a feature request: it would be great to be able to move camera keyframes directly on the timeline.
At the moment, you can only view and edit camera keyframes, but you can't reposition them.
@Nemsei you can reposition each keyframe. go to pose keyframes > pick the one you need and edit X Y Z coordinates, pitch or yaw, fov etc... Or use recapture from live - keyframe will be changed to your current free cam position and fov
What mod on graphic you use in screenshots?
@ProGammer1111 corefx, our own creation
version 3.0 got a bug where you can't open weapon and radio wheel :(
@Kiochima you need to close the menu & disable free camera to use these
nvm latest version fixed it <3
Hey, the mod crashes FiveM on startup ("Couldn't load SimpleCamera.asi").
My setup: SimpleCamera.asi and .ini are in the FiveM plugins folder. ScriptHookV.dll is in the main GTA V folder.
Am I missing something?
its finally perfect
is it possible to add a Modifier key? Thanks
"Addon missing" no matter what I try. I see IGCS Connector checked in my Reshade menu. In Depth of Field control, it says "The camera is currently disabled..." I have IgcsDOF.fx checked on in my Home menu for reshade. IgcsConnector.addon64 is in my game directory. Not sure how to fix. Thank you for any info.
Hi - still running into Addon missing. What more details can I provide? I really want the sexy motion blur, no luck still. Thank you for making this/any info
Hi - video here of what I'm seeing. Still can't get past addon missing. I don't mean to pester or be a squeaky wheel, but not having any luck. Than you so much for any info. https://youtu.be/zhbK1vUDVtQ
would be nice to change the Keybind
@ahainen you are running a wrong IGCS Connector addon. We ship version 2.5.3.0 and you are using some new updated version without our code changes into the addon that allows it hook into simple camera
@safari4831 Thank you so much for the reply!!! I will change my setup and report back, thank you so much!!!
@safari4831 Switched to 2.5.3.0 and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much!!!
Holy heck nice
