Powerful Rig low performance - tombombodil - 09-13-2013

I have a Razer Blade Pro (laptop) running Windows 8 x64
8GB RAM
Intel i7 4700HQ
GTX 765M

I can run Crysis and Deus Ex Human Revolution on high specs and get 35-45 fps. I put A Machine for Pigs on the lowest settings and it never goes above 20, dropping into single digits if I look around a lot.

I manually set the video card for the game to the GTX765M in Nvidia Control Panel and it says that's the card it's using in the startup launcher and it boots up fine, doesn't crash or anything. It just runs like crap.

I attatched my HPL file

Your game is running using the integrated Intel HD graphics card which is not supported due to various issues like bad Intel drivers. Check this guide on how to make the game work on the dedicated Nvidia graphics card:
