Ascent Combat Framework v3.8.2 (5.5)

Easily create your own high end Action RPG with little to no coding, Multiplayer supported.

Ascent Combat Framework (ACF) a multi-module C++ plugin that provides a robust, extensible, and easy-to-use framework to build your own Action RPG in record time. It features everything you'd need to design and create a state-of-the-art fluid Ranged and/or Melee Combat System and supports multiplayer.

Unleash your Creativity

Crafted by engineers with AAA game-industry experience, ACF Ultimate combines the power of a professional, production-ready C++ tool with the simplicity of a Blueprint template. With a fully-featured Blueprint sample project that showcases all its capabilities, everything is setup to work out of the box, so you can jump straight into crafting your idea.

Modular by Design. Flexible by Nature.

Blueprint templates look easy, until you need to change them. ACF is built on a industry-standard layered architecture, a modular C++ core designed to scale with your ambition. ACF is a C++ plugin designed to be extended, not hacked. You build on top of it, not inside it. That means cleaner architecture, no conflicts, and updates that don’t wipe your work. Use what you need, extend what you want, and leave behind the limitations of traditional templates.

Need C++ to use ACF? Nope

All core systems are exposed to Blueprints, meaning you can build your game without writing a single line of code. Unless you want to, of course!
