Special thanks to @iamry4ndee , @g-uncleray and @criss1818 for reporting this issue and helping us improve the framework.

You can fix this issue right now by following the steps shown in the video, or simply wait for the upcoming v0.6 update, where the fix has already been implemented.

I recently purchased the Modern Survival Horror Framework, and I was wondering if female character animations compatible with the Motion Matching system are available.

If they aren’t included in the framework, is there any possibility of obtaining them separately or having them made available in a future update?

Thank you for your time and support!

Hi everyone!

This topic will be used to share progress updates for the upcoming V0.6 update of the Modern Survival Horror Framework.

V0.6 is going to be a major update! Our goal is to keep expanding and improving the framework by adding more features, better systems, and useful tools, giving you even more possibilities and flexibility when creating your own survival horror games.

As development continues, we'll be posting previews, new features, improvements, bug fixes, and other progress updates here so you can follow along and see what's coming before the release.

Please keep in mind that everything shown here is still a work in progress, so some features, visuals, or implementation details may change before the final release.

Thank you for all your feedback and support! It continues to help us improve and shape the framework. 😊

I've seen posts about GASP for the Modern framework but I'm interested in adding GASP to the Classic framework are there any tutorials or necessary steps I could follow to achieve GASP in the Classic framework?

By applying the changes shown in this video to MSHF, items that are very close to each other can now be picked up properly without issues. A demo video is included showing step-by-step usage. 

If you are currently using MSHF 0.5.0 or an earlier version and want to apply this fix before the next update, you can follow the steps shown in the video.

This fix is now officially included in MSHF 0.5.1, along with several other improvements.

Right now I don’t have enough time to describe every problematic area, but there is one critically important issue that will affect anyone trying to build a full game with this asset.

The asset does not properly account for game localization. A large amount of functionality is tied to the Name variable in the item structure, while that variable is of type Text. The problem is that Text is localizable. Once the game is localized, this can break gameplay logic: items may be used, combined, checked, or processed incorrectly because the displayed/localized name is no longer a reliable identifier.

This kind of logic should be based on an ItemID field instead. The ItemID should use the FName/Name type, because this value is not localized, never changes between languages, and provides a stable identifier for gameplay code.

The solution itself is relatively simple, but it is an important and potentially time-consuming change because it needs to be implemented carefully everywhere the Name field from the structure is currently used for gameplay logic.

First, an ItemID variable of type FName should be added to the S Item structure. Then, for every item, the original internal item name should be duplicated into the new ItemID field.

After that, the project should be searched for every Set Members in S Item node. The new ItemID pin should be connected to the existing ItemID value wherever necessary. If the pin is hidden, the structure node needs to be selected and the ItemID field enabled in the Details panel. The same should be done for Set Members nodes that currently appear empty but actually contain many hidden structure fields.

Next, the entire project should be searched for every Break S Item node. Every place where the Name output is being used as part of gameplay logic should be changed to use ItemID instead.

I have not completed this migration myself yet, so I want to ask in advance: are there any other places I may miss? Are there systems or node types I should inspect in addition to searching for Set Members in S Item and Break S Item?

I strongly recommend fixing this in the base asset itself. Most developers localize their games fairly late in production. By that point, the project may already be large, with these structures used across many systems, puzzles, inventory interactions, and other gameplay logic. Changing a widely used structure at that stage becomes extremely expensive.

Unreal Engine also tends to behave poorly when heavily used structures are modified. In some places, simply refreshing nodes is not enough, and I have already had to recreate S Item-related variables and nodes from scratch because they became corrupted or stopped compiling correctly after structure changes.

Discovering this issue near the final stages of development would be extremely unpleasant. Fortunately, because I already have several completed games behind me, I tend to test systems like this in advance for stability in different situations, including localization and larger-scale project usage.

P.S. Is there a way to create separate branches within a thread, so that each issue can be kept separate and people don’t have to search through the entire discussion to find new topics? 

We’re currently looking for talented 3D Artists and Animators to work with us on the upcoming Modern Survival Horror Framework v1.0 update.

This is a freelance, project-based opportunity focused on expanding the visual content and quality of the framework.

Interested in working with us? You can find the full details and submit your application through our Jobs page.

We look forward to hearing from talented creators interested in working on MSHF v1.0.
