Outerra uses Intel HD 4000 instead of Radeon 8500m
« on: July 08, 2015, 06:16:54 am »
Hello everyone.
Recently i got a laptop and it runs great, but since i installed outerra here, i cannot make it use the much better dedicated graphics card. I have the latest drivers for the intel gpu and amd gpu, as well as amd catalyst control center, which is set to max performance in all applications, including outerra. I dont know what to do.

Some screenshots:

Some older laptops with ATI chips won't switch to OpenGL on ATI no matter what. On those chipsets, the setting above only applies to DirectX games, but not the ones based on OpenGL.

The only thing that can help are newer graphics and chipset drivers. Make sure you are using the latest drivers from AMD.
