This project is designed to provide developers with a foundational, fully customizable third-person control system for 3D games. It demonstrates how to build essential movement mechanics using only Unity's core components and C# scripting. Whether you're building an action-adventure game, an RPG, or any 3D project requiring character movement, this controller serves as a starting point for learning and development.\n\n## 🚀 Features\n\n- **Third-Person Movement**: Smooth character movement using standard input controls.\n- **Camera Control**: Cinemachine is used to control camera.\n\n## 📂 Project Structure\n\n- **SimplePlayerControllerExample/**: Contains all project resources such as scripts, prefabs, and scenes.\n- **SimplePlayerControllerExample/Scripts/**: Includes C# scripts for character and camera controls.\n- **SimplePlayerControllerExample/Scenes/**: Pre-configured demo scene showcasing the controller in action.\n\n## 🛠️ Getting Started\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- **Unity**: Version 2021.3.21f1 LTS or later. It is also compatible with Unity version 6000.0 or newer.\n- Make sure to import **Cinemachine** and **New Input System** from Unity Registry.\n- Familiarity with Unity and C# scripting is helpful but not mandatory.\n\n### Installation\n\n1. **Clone the repository**:\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/PradeepGameDev/SimpleThirdPersonController.git\n\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003eor\u003c/div\u003e\n\n1. Download Unity package [SimpleThirdPersonController](Assets/SimpleThirdPersonController.unitypackage) inside **Assets** folder.\n\n### Open the Project\n\n1. **Launch Unity Hub**.\n2. Click **Open** and select the folder where you cloned the repository.\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\"\u003eor\u003c/div\u003e\n\n2. Create new or Open any existing project and import downloaded package from **Assets-\u003eImport Package-\u003eCustom Package**.\n\n### Run the Demo\n\n1. Open the demo scene from the `Scenes` folder.\n2. Press the **Play** button to see the third-person controller in action.\n\n## 🎮 How to Use\n\n### Player Controls\n\n- Use the default **WASD/arrow keys** for movement.\n- Rotate the camera using the **mouse**.\n\n\u003e Note: Make sure the **ground layer** and **player's** layer is not same. Because it can cause **IsGrounded** to be true always.\n\n### Customize Controls\n\n- Modify Unity's **Input Manager** to remap controls as needed.\n\n### Extend the Controller\n\n- Add your own animations, abilities, or interactions to expand functionality.\n\n## 📸 Screenshots\n\n![Idle Player](Assets/Screenshots/idle.png)\n![Player Jumping](Assets/Screenshots/jump.png)\n![Player Sprinting](Assets/Screenshots/sprint.png)\n\n## 📜 License\n\nThis project is licensed under the **MIT License** - see the [LICENSE.md](LICENSE.md) file for details..
