I have been replaying the game with GOTR and the Made 2 Measure mods, and other than the typical occasional crashes, I wasn't really having any issues with the game lagging even with the settings enabled that are known to cause that issue. I took a few days away from playing, and when I loaded back up to play again, the game was suddenly stuttering/lagging during gameplay, and I hadn't changed any settings in the game or with my computer or graphics card. I know the PC port is buggy as hell, but I just find it odd that the game was running fine for me before and now it's suddenly having a problem, so I was just wondering if anyone has any idea what could be wrong and how to possibly fix it.
Game is Suddenly Stuttering

It's probably a bad Windows or graphics card driver update, or somehow the game switched to using the internal Intel graphics instead of your dedicated graphics card.
If you haven't installed Juiced patch already, It's recommended that you follow this guide, although you may lose save progress doing so: https://www.saintsrowmods.com/forum...g-juiced-v7-1-0-or-later-for-beginners.24030/
You may also want to want to install DXVK (download first one, put x32 > d3d9.dll in same folder as sr2.exe I believe) to improve general performance.

Do i put the x32 folder itself in with the sr2.exe or just the d3d9.dll? Cause putting just the .dll file in there made it crash instantly after launching.

Yeah just the .dll .
Maybe you need to use a previous version? Some older graphics cards lost compatibility in 2.6 or something due to not having updated Vulkan instructions.
There is a text log file generated in the same folder which may give you precisely what you need to search what the problem exactly is (forgot what it's called though).
This what the log file says:
info: Found device: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730 ( 0.0.0)
info: Skipping: Device does not support Vulkan 1.3
warn: DXVK: No adapters found. Please check your device filter settings
warn: and Vulkan drivers. A Vulkan 1.3 capable setup is required.
So I'm assuming there's no way I can use it with my current graphics card.
Probably yes, but I would suggest trying each major version in a backwards order (2.6, 2.5, 2.4 ...) and/or reading the release notes to see if they support a lower Vulkan version. You may also want to update the driver if it's not on the latest version incase there's extra Vulkan support
