Add option to use discrete GPU

Open splice11 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Problem

When I run the game on my laptop with intel and nvdia graphics it uses the integrated gpu. (On linux)

Solution

On polyMC there is a check box in the instance settings to launch with discrete gpu. It would be neat to have it in Sol Client too.

You can always install Sol Client to ~~Poly~~ Prism Launcher for the time being (https://github.com/Sol-Client/Installer).

I found the code responsible. https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/blob/4596e78df0bc85cd1cffab01c973f6d4cb490319/launcher/minecraft/MinecraftInstance.cpp#L460

Sorry if this is a bit nooby, but how do I install the .jar to ~~polymc~~ (note from TheKodeToad: now unsupported; pls use Prism Launcher instead)? Also the installer seems to be a few versions behind the regular Client.

The installer is up to date, it's just labelled as dev since it's currently unfinished. Just run the JAR file like you would with other installers - e.g. for OptiFine.

This should be closed in my opinion, since the launcher is discontinued

Oops. Thanks!
