• Day/Night cycle | UE5

In this tutorial we will make a day night cycle that uses the Sun Position Calculator plugin to simulate realistic sun positions. We also add a moon into our scene, and fix the weird bug where the night is too bright. We also use real world locations to determine the sun rise and sunset positions.
