turns out I originally installed to game to my HDD when I should have installed it to my SSD (not sure if this had anything to do with the path that the data was being saved to but did that first anyway) uninstalled the game and reinstalled it to my SSD. then i went and right clicked the shortcut that was created on my desktop and entered the following to the "Target" box: { --dataPath Z:\Vintagestory} (there is in fact a space just before the "--" (double hyphen)) now that is an example, not what you should put... theoretically you can put it anywhere as long as its somewhere in your SSD [correct me if I'm wrong] but what I believe it does is take the strain off your HDD and puts it on something that has more space if your CPU is lacking in the computing department. game works, crazy lol

im sorry flare but you must have misinterpreted what i was trying to say i can confirm i have fixed the issue my next post will contain a collage of examples of what i did to fix it to answer the solution to help others.

That's actually who I found to do this he has a step by step to doing it but I'm more of a picture guy so I'll probably end the thread later with a screen shot collage on what needs to be typed out.. literally took close to 12 hours of research for 14 keystrokes lol

Essentially the solution i found is that I changed the data path to the sdd so my hdd isn't bouncing the hell around I'll screenshot the "target" when I get home from work later tonight.

I believe I've found a solution but I'm going to play it one more night to confirm, Thorfinn may have been on the right track with this I'll post back later tonight when I run the game again.

Thank you.. and ik it maybe be tedious but can you give me a step by step to moving appdata?

Every time it happens... I start the game it's fine textures load beautifully, no lag. Then I walk ten blocks then the frame drops hit me. Spike every three seconds.. 70..0..70..0 I have done everything to the point that the game looks like a potato.. I can't play but I love this game. 32 ram Ryzen5 cpu 3060 nvida card Installed on ssd I open process and I see hdd going bonkers on the graph 100 to 0 but my ssd does nothing 0% idk if this has anything to do with it pls help I'll check this forum every day till I have an answer
