New extension: GPU preference (deprecated) #2051
Description
Description
This extension is deprecated, as the engine now has a built-in solution for this.
Set the active GPU to integrated or dedicated, if these are both available, ensuring the highest FPS for you application, using an action.
Here's an example of what you can achieve in terms of performance for your exported projects:

How to use the extension
If you want to ensure that a high-power GPU is used, and you have something like an effect-heavy 3D game, you can give players the ability to choose between which of their video cards is used.
For example, the preference "2" can either unlock the full power of a user's integrated graphics card, or use the dedicated one if available.
If you are sure your app runs on high FPS on integrated graphics, use preference "1".
