I have written a C++ setup guide for Rider and UE5. Including the errors you might run into during installation or first compiling your Unreal project.

A few personal preferences were included…depending on how minimalist you like your code editors.

[Charlie Bennett @CBennettDesign]

Path A - Learn Anim Tools to properly setup IK Rigs.
Path B - Think you're smart and spend the day cursing not going back to Path A but finally crawl your way to functional.

Made some base terrain chunks, painting broad strokes then zooming in to dial in the smaller Points of Interest.

[Charlie Bennett @CBennettDesign]

Been jamming on some Level Design , learning to make worlds feel a bit larger and more explorable.
Being systems/tech focused I often make levels too small/dense, which leads to seeing it all in 5 minutes, which is great for developer flows but ain't it for players.
