In this tutorial, we are going to look into how to quickly setup a simple third person camera using the gameplay camera system available in unreal engine 5.6. Here we will remove the traditional camera in the default third person character and add a gameplay camera. We will setup the gameplay camera similar to the built in third person character camera. Mainly we will be using a Camera director, a camera director evaluator class, and a camera rig for this. We will see how to connect each of these assets and how to integrate them into the third person character.
Later on, we may integrate the gameplay camera system into our reactive turn based combat project as well.

Why Your Procedural Planets Night Side Is Still Lit — UE5 Terrain, Foliage & Clouds

$PlanetGen — Procedural Spherical Terrain for UE5 - Free Playable Demo Project Files: https://www.patreon.com/posts/157863513 . Free Playable Demo: https://www.patreon.com/posts/157984927 PlanetGen is a runtime C++ plugin (with full Blueprint support) for Unreal Engine 5 that generates streaming procedural spherical terrain — a full planet you can fly around, land on, and explore. Async chunk streaming, layered 3D noise, biome blending, foliage, and a water sphere, all without blocking the game thread. Drop ACLMPlanet into your level, assign a material, and click Preview Planet. Hit Randomize for a new world. ────────────────────────────── CORE FEATURES ────────────────────────────── ▸ Spherical Streaming Terrain — Cube-face parameterization divides the sphere into 6 faces, each streamed as a grid of chunks. Actor pool recycles chunks at runtime — no spawn/destroy overhead. ▸ 3D Noise Sampling — All noise is sampled in 3D world space, ensuring perfectly uniform terrain on every face with zero equatorial stretching. No distortion at the poles or seams between faces. ▸ Async Mesh Generation — Geometry built entirely on a thread pool. Game thread is never blocked. ▸ Layered Noise Stack — Stack up to N noise layers. Layer 0 acts as a continental mask controlling where mountains appear vs flat plains. Built-in presets: HighDetail, Smooth, Mountains. ▸ FastNoise Lite Integration — Perlin, OpenSimplex2, Cellular, Ridged Multifractal, Domain Warp Progressive (MIT licensed, ships with source). ▸ Biome Blending — Vertex color blend weights for Grass / Rock / Snow / Underwater. Plug directly into any landscape material. Compatible with WorldGen flat terrain materials. ▸ Foliage System — BiomeFoliageAsset data assets drive HISM scatter on the thread pool. Per-mesh density, height, slope, scale, clustering, and collision. Same data assets as WorldGen flat terrain — configure once, use on both. ▸ Dense Grass System — WorldGenGrassAsset data assets drive ISM ground cover at high resolution. Slope-aware instance sinking, surface normal alignment, per-chunk random jitter. Same data assets as WorldGen flat terrain. ▸ Procedural Water Sphere — Smooth UV sphere at sea level. Configurable subdivisions (default 64) for silky-smooth appearance at any planet scale. ▸ Seed and Randomize — Every planet is seeded and deterministic. One click generates a completely new world. Seed is exposed so you can save and share specific planets. ▸ ACLMPlanetSunSky subclass — Optional subclass with full SunSky integration. Requires SunPositionCalculator plugin (bundled with UE5). Automatically configures the scenes SkyAtmosphere radius and VolumetricCloud layer height to match your planet size. ▸ Editor Preview — CallInEditor buttons (Preview Planet, Clear Planet, Randomize Planet) rebuild terrain without entering Play mode. ────────────────────────────── TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS ────────────────────────────── ▸ Full Blueprint Support — All properties are Blueprint-readable and writable. PreviewPlanet(), ClearPlanet(), and RandomizePlanet() are all Blueprint-callable at runtime. Trigger planet rebuilds, seed changes, or clear events from any Blueprint graph. ▸ ProceduralMeshComponent-based geometry ▸ Cube-face parameterization — equal-area distribution, no pole distortion ▸ 3D noise sampling — zero equatorial stretching on any planet size ▸ Fully exposed parameter categories with tooltips and clamped slider ranges ▸ Seeded RNG per chunk — deterministic foliage placement ▸ Compatible with WorldGen flat terrain foliage and grass data assets ────────────────────────────── INCLUDED ────────────────────────────── ▸ Full C++ source ▸ Pre-built planet material (M_Planet) with biome blending wired up ▸ Water sphere material ▸ Sample foliage data asset (trees, pine) ▸ Sample grass data asset (grass clump) ▸ Sample tree and pine meshes with materials ▸ Sample grass mesh with material ▸ BPCLMPlanet Blueprint subclass for easy editor configuration ▸ PlanetMap demo level — ready to Preview Planet out of the box ────────────────────────────── PERFECT FOR ────────────────────────────── Space games, planetary exploration, sci-fi survival, alien world prototypes, and any project needing a fully streaming spherical planet with real terrain — without writing cube-sphere math, noise systems, or chunk management code from scratch. ► 👇 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥 // 𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐀 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧! https://www.patreon.com/codelikeme ►Patrons will have access to project files of all the stuff I do in the channel and other extra benefits Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClb6Jh9EBV7a_Nm52Ipll_Q/join Like my facebook page for more content : https://www.facebook.com/gamedevelopersclub/ Follow me on twitter : https://twitter.com/CodeLikeMe2 Follow me on reddit : https://www.reddit.com/user/codelikeme #CodeLikeMe #unrealengine #ue5 #ue4 #indiegamedev$
