Free Unreal Engine 5.2 Project Template: VHS First-Person Base with Inventory (BJ Games)
Original title: UE5 VHS FP Project Base
Overview
BJ Games offers this free UE5 project base for first-person VHS/camcorder-style games on itch.io. The downloadable project contains first-person movement with sprint, crouch, flashlight, night vision and zoom controls, an inventory system with item details and consumable effects (medkit and battery examples), a HUD with a dynamic reticle and an interaction feed, head bob, and VHS, pixelation, emboss and lens distortion post-process effects with auto DOF, along with an example level.
The creator notes that the project is made with version 5.2 and that opening it in other versions seems to break the Blueprints; most Blueprints have extensive commenting. The UE5_VHS_FP_Template.zip download (6.6 MB, uploaded December 2023) holds the PSXbaseTemplate project and is name-your-own-price with $0 accepted.
