Optimise sounds like Geforce Experience not the Nvidia Control Panel
I posted the client file below, Also found the nvidia control panel and had it detect for swtor before, but all I can do is optimize for it? Not sure if that's what you mean, however I have been running the game on ultra previously.

I am going by memory here, but i think in the below area is where there should be a setting to select performance card on a laptop
Yes, nice, I finally found the setting in the control panel in the mean time, but your posts are very thorough!!
It appears swtor is running great now!!
Great to Hear things are good now, happy to help and happy playing now 🙂
Need more tweaking let me know if gameplay isnt smooth
I just gotta say first you guys are incredible for how much you help us with these problems to make our lives easier and I'm so grateful.
On another note I am noticing something weird.
When i turn left or right there is some transparent line that starts at the center of my character and goes to the upper left of the screen diagonally.
Swtor def didn't do this before and it was happening on Hoth so I thought I'll go to my ship, but it does it there too!
Maybe it is screen tearing from vsynch ? just initial thought
First though go back into the swtor profile in the nvidia control panel and adjust pre-rendered frames to 1 and see if this makes any difference to what you are seeing or it may help gameply if no change just set it back to 3
other then that go back into the client_settings file and turn off vsynch and see
VerticalSyncState = false
Yes!
VerticalSyncState = false
was the answer!
Phew, this game is a bear after updates, but it finally seems like everything is back to normal and even better than before.
I'll report back if anything starts looking weird, but I think we're good for now!
