Just in time! Nice, that i didnt see update yesterday 
Windows Update and VS just dropped - and scream for full recompile source as always. So easy moving on the newest release.
Upgraded from 5.7.4 to 5.82, 5.83:

hey so I don’t know if the this has been mentioned or not, as far as I’m aware the problem still is present in linux versions of the engine, but I solved the graphical crashes happening on linux, I modified the area responsible for the crashes to the best of my ability preserving the intent of the engineers, I had assistance but in respects to Version: 5.8.0-55116800+++UE5+Release-5.8.

Hey Epic,
I first reported this issue back when 5.6 released, but I think I saw it going back to UE 5.5 and I’m unfortunately still encountering issues in 5.8.2. I don’t think external plugin folders have been tested much since it was implemented as this break both my ability to run a Development build from Visual Studio and more importantly, I cannot build a remote build of my project on iOS. I’d really appreciate it if this could be addressed for the next hotfix. Ideally, I would like to avoid changing my folder structure as a workaround to avoid this.
I’m on 5.8.2 so I’ll test 5.8.3 in hopes this improves but I haven’t seen anything mentioning remote builds on iOS and external plugin folders. My plugin folder is outside the project directory 2 levels up and UE appears to still rely on the folder being relative to the project or engine folder when trying to run a build from Visual Studio or the remote iOS build. This totally works on Windows, and it probably works if I moved everything to my mac mini but there seems to be a mapping issue. One thing I’d love to see is an ability to change the name of the RemappedPlugins folder possibly from the Plugins window.
I’ll cross my fingers there is a hope this might be able to be addressed and, in the meantime, I’ll try the latest 5.8.3 in case, and I’ll see if I can take a quick look at it over the weekend.
I found a related fix, but it looks like it is targeted at 6.0. I’ll see if I can find the commit for this in ue6-main.
