#

#

no you have enough

#

ohhh okay

#

ok so as i suspected- you have an integrated graphics card which can't run this game BUT you ALSO have a nvidia dedicated card which can 100% run this game

#

so what i think your PC is doing is attempting to use the integrated graphics card instead of the dedicated one

#

there's steps somewhere in this discord for how to change that

ok, tysm!

How To Force a Program to Use GPU

Many programs are designed to use your computer's CPU when they start. However, some programs run better if you force them to use your computer's GPU instead. If you have a program that's lagging or not performing

#

but also this should tell you how to do it

#

and then you shouldn't get that popup anymore

If you do then it's something else but you'll want it running off the nvidia card anyways

I did everything but I’m stuck on step 5… I can’t seem to find where the context menu is, or the option “run with graphics processor”

#

WAIT A SEC im dumb i missed something LMAO

#

okay nvm it’s still giving me trouble :((( even tho I’ve done all the steps i still can’t find “run with graphics processor” in the context menu

#

ummmmm lemme see if i one of my PC smart friends is alive (awake) and we'll get it working

#

@patent blade i thought there was something within discord that has help for forcing it to run off dedicated but for the life of me cannot find it anywhere. Can you help here?
