Need help. game ran at 60 fps a couple weeks ago and now whenever i try to open it and run it it giving me three fps all of a sudden all i did in the past week on my pc was buy a external hard drive. no i did not move any game files from teardown or anything at all to the external i just downloaded games on the drive whenever i got it not sure if the drive is causing the problem or what i have not added any new mods either

I have some steps here to get ahold of the logs, but they probably wont say much about what's causing the lower fps, but maybe there will be a clue or something.

  1. Press Windows+R, which should open a small window in the bottom left corner
  2. Type in "%localappdata%\Teardown" and press Enter
  3. Look for log.txt, and send it as an attachment via DMs

Also, try lowering the resolution/running the game in windowed mode. See if that helps, then it's likely to be a rendering bottleneck.

If that doesn't help, still try turning off all mods since you could've gotten really unlucky and someone happened to update a mod just as you made the hard drive installation.

Alright let mee try that

#

log.txt is not showing up

yeah so not sure what is going on with this crap but I'm genuinely aggravated i uninstalled the game completely as well as every mod i ever had AND unplugged my external drive after that the game starts up gets past the click to start screen then my screen turns red with a lot of lines and turns my entire computer off.

#

game is uninstalled complely

#

files etc

#

going to try to install the game ONE last time on my external drive this time and MAYBE that will fix it.

#

if all fails then im not sure what the deal is

Yeah there shouldn't be any problems to run the game, I'm leaning towards some sort of driver/hardware failure. Try updating the drivers to start with.
