Built for the way you work
From MP Freemode to your own addon ped.
Preview materials and movement, repair supported heel and hair rigs, then check the clothing in game.
Wind and drape, simulated
Add the YLD cloth physics file and watch the clothing move in the wind.
Custom addon peds
Create clothing for custom addon peds and other game peds, with their own model, skeleton and clothes, then build FiveM or Singleplayer resources. Needs an Advanced or Ultimate license.
New in V4
Your own peds, your own artwork, your own editor.
Custom addon peds
Not only MP Freemode.
Create clothing for your own addon peds and other game peds, each with its own model, skeleton and clothes, then build a FiveM or Singleplayer resource.
- Set up a Custom Addon Ped from its files, or pick a Game Ped and let DCT find its model.
- The 3D preview, thumbnails, findings and builds follow the ped you chose.
- Needs an Advanced or Ultimate license.
Texture Studio
Patches and lettering, right on the ped.
Add pictures, text, patches and insignia to a cloth texture and watch the ped update in 3D while you edit.
- Give layers an embroidery, woven, enamel, bullion, leather or metal finish with real relief and shine.
- Click the ped to place a layer, size it in centimetres and mirror it to the other side.
- Layers stay editable in your project. Editing is free; finishes, saving and exporting need Ultimate, and the 3D view needs GTA V set up in DCT.
Creator Link
Paint in your editor. See it on the ped.
Plugins for Photoshop, Photopea, GIMP, Krita, Substance 3D Painter and Blender show your work on the ped in the 3D preview while you paint or model.
- Install the plugin for your editor in one click from DCT, or get it from the plugins page.
- Save straight back to the cloth, or as a new texture variation.
- Installing and connecting are free; live preview and saving need Ultimate.
- Works on Windows with your editor on the same PC; the live preview needs GTA V set up in DCT.
The problems it removes
Four things that used to surface after a deploy.
“It looked fine in the preview.”
Clothing materials
Inspect hair, fur, transparent fabric and supported skin tones more clearly. Use the preview to prepare, then check the final result in game.
New in V4
“The skirt clips through the leg in game.”
Simulate the wind first.
Add the YLD cloth physics file and judge drape, stretch and pinning without launching GTA V.
New in V4
“400 warnings. Where do I start?”
Press Fix.
Texture, UV, model, map, material and tattoo findings each carry a direct fix in the Error List.
New in V4
“This pack eats my streaming budget.”
Reclaim the wasted pixels.
Crop each texture to the area your clothing actually uses while the model stays lined up with it, and undo the run if you change your mind.

Reviews
What the GTA V clothing community says.
Hands down the best, easiest tool to use while working with clothing. The 3D Preview, Texture Optimization, and Addon Converting features are incredible.
Trippy
Server Owner
The most amazing piece of software I have used for FiveM. 100’s of hours I’ve wasted sorting clothes manually. I wish I knew about this tool sooner.
N31RD
Clothing Modder
I’m completely in love with the Cloth Tool. The way it makes custom routes easier and the compatibility that the build function provides is unique.
Ari
Cloth Designer
Must have for me personally. DCT made my life 1000 times easier. After two months, I’m still euphoric about how much this tool simplifies my work.
Luxoe
Clothing Conversion Expert
Amazing tool. If you’re not using Durty Cloth or Forge Database, you’re missing out.
Taylor Renee
Server Developer
The Durty Cloth Tool and Pleb Masters site have become invaluable to me as a baby dev and first-time server owner.

First-time Server Owner
I have been using this tool for about two years. It’s absolutely amazing for adding clothing to FiveM. I can do so much with clothing including optimizing.

Just bought this tool and honestly, it’s the best purchase I have made for my server. It’s hella simple to use and the support team is fantastic.

FAQ
Before you download.
Everything you need before the first build.
Download the portable ZIP, unpack it anywhere and start Durty Cloth Tool from that folder. Nothing is installed. The Experimental builds are under Other builds. You can set up and test a project without a license; building a resource needs Advanced or Ultimate. The quickstart guide walks through your first project.
Yes. Besides the MP Freemode peds, DCT creates clothing projects for custom addon peds and other game peds, each with its own model, skeleton and clothes. Choose Game Ped to look up a game model automatically, or Custom Addon Ped to set one up from its files, then build a FiveM or Singleplayer resource. Custom ped projects need an active Advanced or Ultimate license. The custom ped guide walks through the setup.
Only for features that read game files: the 3D preview (including Edit in 3D, tattoo body thumbnails, Texture Studio’s 3D view and the Creator Link live preview), Edit texture in image editor, Menyoo outfit import, Rig to freemode body, the automatic hair cut and game peds. Without an installation they explain why they are unavailable, and Options lists them. Everything else, including recolouring, automatic heel heights and Quick Look, works without the game.
No. Every build is Authenticode signed and timestamped by Schmid Software Solutions. SmartScreen scores each new file separately from that signature, so a fresh build can still show “Windows protected your PC” until enough people have run it. Open More info, check the publisher reads Schmid Software Solutions, then choose Run anyway.
Experimental publishes changes before they reach Release. Features may change or disappear, and a build may not work correctly with every project. Switching channels does not move or delete projects, but projects saved in a newer format may not open in Release.
Yes. The app notifies you when a newer version is available on your selected channel, and the app bar shows the running version, update state, and unread changes.
Yes. Compatible clothing and textures from replace mods can be imported into a project. DCT builds addon resources, or replacement resources that take the place of a known DLC, base-game clothing, game tattoos or facial overlays once installed. It never changes the files of your GTA V installation.
A license covers one device at a time. After a Windows reinstall, a mainboard swap or a move to a new PC it restores itself while you are signed in, with nothing to click. Activating it on another device ends its use on the previous one. If it still will not activate, open a ticket on the Pleb Masters Discord.
The core workflow can be tested free within the published project-size limits before purchase. You may cancel at any time; once a license has been activated or used, we cannot provide a refund.
Start with the documentation, then join the Pleb Masters Discord for community help and the support included with your plan.
Since 2020
Behind the clothing on thousands of servers.
Clothing packs made with Durty Cloth Tool run on thousands of GTA V servers. Every day, thousands of server owners and content creators use DCT to preview and optimize clothing, then build their packs.
- Preview on a real Ped before you pack, not after a server restart
- Addon clothing and tattoos generated from one project instead of assembled by hand
- Every finding names its own fix, so a 400-warning pack stops being a guessing game
- Formats, limits and edge cases mapped release by release
