3D Widget low frequency

Hello. I’m using a widget in blueprint on my scene and making some interactions with it. But I see a very low frequency. All of my animations shown with slowdown(in 5-10 fps). Can I raise it?

There are some things you can try to make it look smoother. I do not really know the proper solution as your post has very limited information:

  • Complex animations: If your animations are complex and involve many moving parts, they may be taxing on the system and causing the low frame rate. You may try simplifying the animations or optimizing them to improve performance.
  • Overuse of widgets: Overuse of widgets can lead to performance issues as widgets are rendered in the scene and can take up a lot of memory. Try to minimize the use of widgets or consider using a different approach such as using C++.
  • High resolution textures: If your textures are high resolution, they may be causing performance issues. Try reducing the resolution of your textures or using compressed textures to improve performance.
  • Large number of actors: If your scene has a large number of actors, it can cause performance issues. Try reducing the number of actors in your scene or using level streaming to improve performance.
  • Hardware: Make sure that your computer meets the minimum system requirements for Unreal Engine and that you don’t have other programs running in the background that could be using up resources.

You can also try using the Unreal Engine’s scalability settings to optimize your game for performance. Keep in mind that the solution will depend on the specific details of your project, so you may need to experiment with different options to find the best solution.

  • in the animation timeline, what is the Sequence Display Rate set to?
  • what is the Redraw Time of the widget component?
  • are you Redrawing Manually?
  • are you using a Retainer Widget?
  • how is the rest of the scene performing - is it only the widget that misbehaves?
  • how many widgets are there in total & how complex are they?
  • any material on the widgets?
