Installing 30+ Female Poses

Requirements

	Required
RedM server	Yes	Any build supporting fx_version 'cerulean' and lua54 'yes'
Asset packs	Yes	The manifest declares dependency '/assetpacks'
Framework	No	VORP, RSG, RedEM:RP or none
Database	No	No server scripts and no SQL
An emote system	No	The pack ships its own menu

Asset packs is a real requirement here

Unlike most RedMorrow resources, this one streams files — twenty-nine .ycd dictionaries. dependency '/assetpacks' is an entitlement check against your server's licence key, and without it the resource refuses to start.

If it fails on that check, enable asset packs for your key in the Cfx.re portal. Nothing in the resource can work around it.

No npm, no build tools, no SQL imports, no extra resources.

Install

1. Unzip so the folder is named exactly rm_30-custom-female-pose, anywhere your server loads resources from:

   resources/[animations]/rm_30-custom-female-pose
   resources/[standalone]/rm_30-custom-female-pose

2. Add one line to server.cfg:

   ensure rm_30-custom-female-pose

   No particular order is needed — there are no server scripts and no database. The one exception is if you drive the poses from an emote menu, in which case start this before or alongside it so the dictionaries exist when the menu opens.

3. Restart, or from the server console:

   refresh
   ensure rm_30-custom-female-pose

Do not rename the folder

Exports are namespaced by folder name, so exports['rm_30-custom-female-pose']:Play(...) breaks the moment you rename it. Strip any version suffix like rm_30-custom-female-pose-1.0.0 too.

A correct tree:

rm_30-custom-female-pose/
  fxmanifest.lua
  config.lua
  clips.lua
  client.lua
  html/
  stream/
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    ... 29 in total
  docs/

Verify it streamed

The quickest check is in game: press F7. If the menu opens and a pose plays, everything worked.

To check the streaming specifically, run this in the F8 client console:

DoesAnimDictExist('redmorrow_com@pose5')

true means the dictionary reached your client. false means the resource is not started, or the asset-pack check failed.

For a scripted test that reports why it failed rather than hanging:

CreateThread(function()
    local dict, clip = 'redmorrow_com@pose5', 'pose5'
    RequestAnimDict(dict)
    local timeout = GetGameTimer() + 5000
    while not HasAnimDictLoaded(dict) do
        if GetGameTimer() > timeout then
            print('FAILED: dictionary did not load — is rm_30-custom-female-pose started?')
            return
        end
        Wait(0)
    end
    TaskPlayAnim(PlayerPedId(), dict, clip, 4.0, -4.0, -1, 1, 0.0, false, 0, false, 0, false)
    print('SUCCESS: pose5 is playing')
end)

Verification checklist

Step	How	Expected
Resource started	Server console after ensure	No red errors
Asset packs	Server console on start	No asset-pack entitlement error
Dictionary streamed	DoesAnimDictExist('redmorrow_com@pose5')	true
Menu opens	Press F7 in game	The pose menu appears
A pose plays	Pick one in the menu	The character holds the pose
Stop works	Press X	The character returns to idle

Common install mistakes

Mistake	Symptom	Fix
Missing asset entitlement	Resource fails to start	Enable asset packs on your Cfx.re key
Folder renamed	Exports break; other scripts cannot find it	Rename back to rm_30-custom-female-pose
Forgot ensure	DoesAnimDictExist returns false	Add the line to server.cfg
Not refreshed	Dictionaries missing after copying it in	refresh then ensure
Renamed a .ycd file	One dictionary missing, the rest fine	Restore the original name — see below
Expecting FiveM	Nothing exists	These are RDR2 .ycd files. RedM only

Never rename a .ycd file

An RDR2 dictionary stores its own name inside the file. Renaming the file does not rename the dictionary — it just makes the two disagree, and the dictionary becomes unreachable.

Where it stores things

Player favourites are kept in the client's own KVP store under favorites, not in a database. They are per-player and per-machine, and nothing is written server-side.
