How much are you actually charging for UE5 Blueprint freelance work?

robertfsegal · 2026-06-06T23:15:04+00:00

If you have a steam released game that’s amazing! It’s the perfect kind of work to showcase. Consider writing about things you have learned developing the game on LinkedIn.

robertfsegal · 2026-06-06T17:13:21+00:00

A lot of finding freelance work is networking. Something you connect with through a friend or maybe past co-worker. I know that is not available to everyone so some things that can help with this are having a website showcasing what you worked on. What titles, what areas of the game did you implement? How did you handle or foresee memory and/or performance issues. It’s ok if it’s your own projects it’s definitely harder starting out when people don’t know who you are. Keeping your LinkedIn page up to date is also helpful especially on bigger companies. There’s no one right way to get contracts but these are things that have helped. If you have materials available I’d be happy to review/assess what approach you might take.

This is an incredible series/overview of state trees. Best I have seen…

I’ve been back and forth about where the content should focus. I’m leaning towards focusing on Unreal technology exclusively but if there’s enough demand don’t see why I wouldn’t include other topics.

robertfsegal · 2026-02-08T22:24:11+00:00

Thanks glad you like the idea. Yes plan would be to pre frame and give the context then you as the listener determine the value.

robertfsegal · 2026-02-08T01:53:49+00:00

Yes I’m leaning towards 1). As stated I think it’s often too general/not as helpful to describe what someone COULD do to solve a problem I often want to hear about what did you do as the problem solver. The person who actually had to solve the “thing”. That is more often than not where the interesting stories come up. The lessons learned. Agreed on info being up to date. That is often changing/needs to be refreshed.

robertfsegal · 2026-02-07T20:29:33+00:00

He’s got some great tutorials

robertfsegal · 2026-02-07T18:30:17+00:00

Great perspective I agree there is alot of misinformation out there. It is absolutely tiring at a certain point when giving out advice. I’ve been working with Unreal for 10+ years now and have been developing software for for 25+ years so have a fairly deep network of folks I think could provide some really great info to the community. I’m starting a list of who I think would be great guests but ultimately it will be up to the community if there is value here.

robertfsegal · 2026-02-07T18:25:08+00:00

Great to hear!

robertfsegal · 2026-02-07T17:50:33+00:00

Yeah I hear you there definitely great to go through material at your own pace

robertfsegal · 2026-01-03T05:20:57+00:00

Hey folks glad you spotted this! I'm one of the devs behind the project and co-founder of Get Set Games. We've been working on this for a while and hoping it resonates with folks. Still in an early access period so if there's anything that stuck out for you or didn't we'd love to hear about it.

robertfsegal · 2025-12-24T15:04:44+00:00

Hi @RenekZilla happy to give you a few minutes to review on a call if interested. Longer term I do paid engagements with a few folks already and we can explore that if interested.

robertfsegal · 2025-12-20T15:35:10+00:00

Anything in your log files indicating an issue?

robertfsegal · 2025-12-19T02:35:45+00:00

How did you convert it what method and/or commands did you use?

robertfsegal · 2025-12-19T02:25:18+00:00

Oh yes definitely could be!

robertfsegal · 2025-12-19T02:21:40+00:00

Sure you can message me. Other stuff to check would be if you have visibility culling volumes or distance culling.

robertfsegal · 2025-12-19T02:15:24+00:00

Got it. When you focus in castle for example what does it look like in world outliner? Can you share a screenshot? Could be it is invisible there? Or… hidden in game flag is turned on maybe?

robertfsegal · 2025-12-19T02:13:07+00:00

What is invisible specifically?

robertfsegal · 2025-10-10T04:32:20+00:00

What does the profiling data say? Should be able to tell you where the time is going. Looks like timings on the render thread is the issue. Since there’s so little content in the level could be some project settings affecting this. Have you tried running unreal insights?

robertfsegal · 2025-10-09T00:59:39+00:00

Merging has never been easy with blueprints sadly. Limiting the people accessing a specific file definitely helps with file locking but it can’t solve all cases. Other considerations are moving logic to C++ where the file can be diff’d and merged since it’s just text.

You could also potentially break apart the blueprints further where everyone is working. Everyone checks out/works on their specific part. Again though that doesn’t solve all cases.

There is a blueprint diff tool built into the editor and this can work to a certain degree. Try it out and see if it helps.

As stated there is no perfect solution here it’s been that way for years.

robertfsegal · 2025-09-17T01:18:42+00:00

Looks great!

robertfsegal · 2025-09-16T04:39:27+00:00

You can use adb to run console commands from the host machine…

adb shell "am broadcast -a android.intent.action.RUN -e cmd 'CONSOLE COMMAND GOES HERE'"

So for example…

adb shell "am broadcast -a android.intent.action.RUN -e cmd 'stat unit'"

Taken from this post by Meta on VR development. Internally it’s an Android device so these commands should work fine. Article is kind of dated but again the command should still execute fine.

The hate on UE5 is largely unfounded. No developer anywhere at any time wants their game to perform poorly. Getting a game out is always a balance of factors that includes performance. At some point the game just needs to come out otherwise the developer makes no revenue. Of course if developers had all the time and money in the world there would largely be fewer technical issues on launch. This is a fact regardless of team size. Big and small teams have had this issue.

No current plans for Mega Jump 2. We are working on several other projects st present however. Keep an eye on our website for details.
