Game insist on running on the wrong graphics card

[Nightruler]

I’ve two graphics cards in my rig.

1: AMD Radeon RX 7800XT with one 2560x1440 144Hz monitor attached, mainly used for gaming.

2: nVidia GeForce GTX 960 with 4 side HD-monitors attached, used for VM, YouTube etc.

Both graphics cards have latest drivers installed. Game files Validates correct. Running SFC & DISM terminates without any errors. DXDiag shows no errors.

Trying to force the game to run on the 7800XT card in Windows System->Display->Graphics is just ignored. Launching the game from AMD Adrenalin does not change the behavior.

Any ideas how I make Enshouded run on my main graphics card instead of the old nVidea card?

In the Nvidia control panel, you should be able to select your primary graphics card.

Thank you for your suggestion, but I’m unable to find any settings to select which graphic card that should be used as the primary card in the nVidia control panel. nVidia has no settings nor information regarding my AMD GPU, at least none that I can find.

At some point it must have worked, because I have about 5 hours playtime in the game. I guess that one of the updates ruined my pc’s ability to play the game. 9-12 FPS makes me nausea and dizzy within 5 minutes, so I’m pretty sure I haven’t played for that amount of time with such a low FPS.

It's funny though, on my old i7 based pc with a GTX 1080 graphics card, now running Linux (LMDE), Enshrouded actually runs under Proton with some command line commands found in the ProtonDB.

However, the full screen option is f…ed up. I have two monitors on that system. A primary 30” 2560x1600 pixel monitor attached to the 1080 card and a 1440x900 pixel monitor attached to the i7’s build in GPU. The game runs on my primary monitor with around 50 FPS, but even if I set the game to the monitors native resolution it refuses to fill out the whole area of the monitor.

Also, there is an error message on the character selection screen claiming my graphics driver is obsolete. The nVidea driver IS fully updated! I don’t now if the i7 video driver is up to date. I need to check that later.

All this surely indicate that the game has major problems handling multi-GPU/monitor systems. I’ll just let it be for now, not wasting more time messing around with this half-done EA-game.

Btw: No other games in my Steam library have any problems running on my systems.
