10 Fps when choosing start

While the game is "playable", I'm getting less then 10 fps on lowest settings while picking where I should land...

Processor: AMD A8-5500 APU with Radeon HD Graphics 3.20 ghz
Ram: 12.0 Gb
System: 64-bit, x64 based processor

If there is any other information I should give please tell me

DxDiag.txt will be helpful.

sorry if this sounds silly, but I have no idea what that is...

It's file with information about your system. Check my dignature for How-To.

Sorry for the late reply, it should be attached.

I have AMD A10-5800 3.8Ghz A10 integrated graphics radeon much higher end then A8 (386 vs 256 shader count) and I had to reserve 2GB ram in the bios for graphics memory just to get the game up to 20-30fps that is on medium settings though.

I checked your config and don't understand one thing (AMD and their model numbers are very strange). Can you confirm that you have discrete PCI-e card (Radeon HD8350 1GB)?

I asking because this discrete card is much slower than integrated card (HD 7560D) in your APU:

I'm don't 100% sure that this data is correct, but it's really hard to find information about HD 8350 because it's some renamed model.

So if you run game on integrated card you should get much better performance, than you might get on this super-slow discrete graphics.

Also can you please do that:

1. Enable view of hidden and system files:

2. Open thid directory:C:\Users\ YOUR_WINDOWS_USERNAME \AppData\Local\Uber Entertainment\Planetary Annihilation\log\
3. And upload .log file on forum as attachment.

Then I can check what GPU is used by the game.

Here are the logs. I also notice that the bigger I make the PA window, the lower fps I get.

Yes, you run game on HD8350.

Code:

[18:31:28.468] INFO GL_VENDOR: ATI Technologies Inc.
[18:31:28.468] INFO GL_RENDERER: ASUS HD8350 Series

Can you confirm that you have discrete GPU? If yes I'm recommend try run game on integrated GPU, it's probably will be 2-3 times faster.

It's normal, when you resize windows you change resolution.

Is there a specific way to confirm which GPU Im using, and how I would run it on a differnt one?

Hm.. if you have some video card in your PCI-e port on motherboard it's mean you have discrete graphics card.

If information I find is correct your discrete card is office-grade, it's super slow. I really have no idea why any manufacturer put this crap in desktop computer with APU.

To be fair I have no idea how dual graphics configurations working on desktop computers. Sometimes you can toggle integrated graphics in BIOS and sometimes you can configure it though Catalyst Control Center.
