In this video, you will learn how to integrate the Multiplayer Health System (MHS) into Epic Games' GASP (Game Animation Sample Project). We will explain step-by-step how to combine GASP's advanced locomotion with the MHS survival logic using the CMC character. Thanks to the Component-Based Architecture (BPC), we will equip the sample character with a robust health and shield system, directional damage feedback, and replicated death mechanics in just a few minutes.

1. Project Preparation

</aside>

<aside>

Configuration: Create a new Collision Channel named Downed with Default Response set to Ignore.

</aside>

2. Migration and Initial Configuration

</aside>

Preparation of the necessary files in the target project.

<aside>

Both projects must be on the same version.

Migrate the **DMD** folder from the MHS project to the Content directory of your GASP project.

Do not overwrite files if prompted; ensure that references are maintained. </aside>

3. Character Configuration

</aside>

<aside>

Add health logic to the base character.

Open the CMC character Blueprint.

Add the component 🟦 BPC_Health_System.

In the component's details panel, you can adjust the variables and settings. </aside>

4. Animation System and Retargeting

</aside>

<aside>

Adapt the animations to the UEFN skeleton.

Select all necessary animations from the Health System.

Perform a Retarget to the UEFN skeleton.

Save the new animations in a dedicated folder and add the suffix **_UEFN** for organization. </aside>
