Re: Weird movement lag

@puzzlezaddictThanks for all the suggestions, I already tried all the in-game possibilities before writing the post, so I skipped that one.

Was there something wrong or strange in the dxdiag file? I don't have knowledge in that area really hahah

So I removed again all the mods, and turned off the game bar and mode, and went into game, looked fine. Then I tested it by turning one thing at a time again, and going back in, and...it was also fine. I have no idea what happened and why was it doing that. I started adding back mods one by one to see if it was maybe that (even though I updated them all and removed them before writing the post), and it was once again fine - the only thing is that some mods do increase the loading time and I have few more lags than without mods, which is kinda to be expected (BBB, MCCC, TOOL, UI, small mods like gardening fix).

I then went to test DDLV for the sake of it to see if the lag there is better, and it was. I will still keep an eye on it, as I have no idea what caused this, as I regularly keep my laptop free of junk files and monitor everything so that it is "healthy".

Thank you for the help up to now 🙂

    @EeveeTinn  I didn't see anything odd in the dxdiag, certainly nothing that would explain the micro stutters.  I should have said so, but I just moved on to other troubleshooting steps.

    As for why this is resolved... who knows.  Sometimes it's possible to at least guess, for example if some app or driver had updated and you hadn't restarted your computer since then, it would be logical to suspect that the restart fixed the issue.  Sometimes even after a restart, something goes slightly wrong, for example I remember one time being unable to open Nvidia Freestyle for no reason at all, which cleared up after a restart.  But sometimes there isn't even a plausible theory.

    At any rate, the important thing is that your game is running properly now.  Let me know if you have any more trouble.
