How to build infinite terrain on a sphere in Unreal Engine 5 — no polar distortion, no seams, no loading screens.

I break down the cube-face parameterization technique that makes it possible: unwrap the planet into 6 faces, generate terrain on each like flat ground, then project it all back onto a sphere with 3 lines of math.

✓ Cube-face parameterization — why it beats latitude/longitude
✓ Sphere projection math (normalize + scale, that's it)
✓ Procedural noise on a sphere — same generator as flat terrain
✓ Vertex color biome blending — grass, rock, snow, water
✓ Actor pool streaming — 500+ chunks, zero spawn overhead
✓ Async mesh generation — parallel builds, no frame stalls
