Having issues with the game's graphics?
Is your game very slow?
Tried lowering all the settings to increase performance but doesn't seem to get any better?
Then you've come to the right place. Here is how you can boost your games performace.

ATTENTION : I am not responsible if your computer breaks or is damaged as a result. !!!PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!! :
NOTE : This will also affect other games installed in your computer unless you follow the other procedure titled "Hawken only" :

Okay, so I believe that you've lowered all of your settings in the game. Though the thing some of you don't know is that you can boost you're game performance by changing a few settings in your Graphics Control panel. OKAY SO LET'S BEGIN. Also note, this method only works if you've updated your graphics drivers and the graphics card is NVIDIA.

Requirements:
- A NVIDIA graphics card
- NVIDIA drivers are updated

ALL GAMES :

STEP 1: Right click your desktop and scroll down to NVIDIA control panel.
STEP 2 : Click on Manage 3D Settings in the left navigation menu.
STEP 3 : Under Preferred Graphics Processor, click the scroll down menu. Click on High performace processor and your game should increase performance.
STEP 4 (OPTIONAL) : If your game still isn't running as well, it might be that you have to do just one more step. Click on adust image settings with preview.
STEP 5 (OPTIONAL) : Click Click on Use my preference emphasizing and scroll the bar all the way to performace or at least somewhere close to there.

HAWKEN ONLY :

STEP 1: Right click your desktop and scroll down to NVIDIA control panel.
STEP 2 : Click on Manage 3D Settings in the left navigation menu.
STEP 3 : Click on the tab titled Program Settings.
STEP 4 : Under Select a Program to Customize, click the scroll down menu. Click on Hawken Launcher. (If it isn't there you might have to add it)
STEP 5 : Under Select the Prefered Graphics Processor for this Program, click the scroll down menu. Click on High Performance NVIDIA Processor. From there the game's performance should improve.

From there Hawken should increase in performace. Though if you're experiencing internet lag or very high ping, this post probably won't help you.

Any questions? Just post.
