I have a laptop which uses nVIdia Optimus that switches video cards based on filters. I have filtered it to use my dedicated GPU, but Shadow Magic still uses my intel card instead. Has anyone found a way around this?

There's a config tool in the game start menu folder. Can't you choose which one you want to use there ?

No, I can't.

On the Config tool, are both cards listed under 'Adapter' and you can't select the dedicated one, or the dedicated one isn't listed ?

It has two entries for my intel card. I have tried both and it still doesn't use my dedicated GPU.

And do you know which entry, if any, corresponds to the dedicated gpu you mentioned ? I was hoping the config tool would be an easy way to solve the issue but i guess not.

Isn't there a way to just override what ever it is optimus does and have the pc use just the dedicated card ? I don't mean via filters for specific apps, i mean really override it. That way you could just hand over control back to optimus after you're done with the game.
