# Introduction

### What is FPS Framework Pro?

It’s an extension asset that expands the core FPS Framework (FPSF) with more advanced features. FPSF Pro includes enhancements such as multiplayer support, achieved through dedicated external integrations built specifically for the base FPSF asset.

### How do I get started?

You’ll need at least a basic understanding of the base FPS Framework to fully grasp the Pro features. For example, multiplayer functionality in FPSF Pro builds upon existing systems by networking their core components similar to how Mirror’s **NetworkAnimator** synchronizes animations. In the same way, FPSF Pro introduces components like **NetworkFirearm**, which extends the base **Firearm** component to function seamlessly over the network.

### Upgrade path

If you already own the base FPS Framework (version 1.0 or 2.0), you can upgrade to the Pro version for a small fee. However, if you don’t own the base asset, purchasing FPS Framework Pro automatically includes it for free, since the base framework serves as the foundation of the Pro version.
