Question by sandhillceltic · Mar 12, 2015 at 01:52 PM · buildplayerunity5framerate

Why would I being getting low fps in a build but not in the editor?

I'm having a bit of a performance problem. While testing and editing my game in the editor, everything is smooth, but as soon as I build the game, the FPS goes down the drain, to around 20. My questions would be

1) Has anyone else come across this? 2) Could it be a new bug of some sort? 3) Are there any fixes that you know of?

I've messed around with the quality settings, camera effects, and other stuff, but there hasn't been a change. I'm tearing my hair out over what this could be.

It's a relatively simple scene with few shadows and some pathfinding, so complexity isn't really a problem.

Computer specs, so you don't have to ask- Quad core i7 GTX 860m 16gb ram (it's a laptop)

Ask and I'll include more specs, the screenshots of the scene if you need them

if you are using the new canvas renderer instead of old GUI try disabling the canvas. I had the same problem when building on a mobile. Had to re-write some HUD stuff back on on old GUI.
