Thanks for letting us know that were able to resolve the problem. Your advice will certainly help others in the same situation.

Unfortunately with laptops that have switchable graphics you can encounter these problems when the Nvidia GPU is not automatically selected. For example. on some computers the high performance GPU will automatically be disabled if you run on battery power which will obviously cause performance issues.

One thing to be careful of is if you change the global setting to always use the high performance GPU, then you will notice poor battery life even when using software that doesn't really need the Nvidia GPU. It is normally better to setup a separate program profile in the Nvidia Control Panel for Cartoon Animator and leave the global setting at the default "Auto".

Hi there!  I'm a new user to CTA5, and hopefully I'm missing something obvious...

I'm getting very low framerates, but my system is good, with an i7 11th gen Intel processor and RTX3060 gpu.
When I check the NVIDIA GPU Activity, I see that Affinity designer is utilizing the GPU, but CTA is not.
Is there a setting I need to adjust to get GPU acceleration from Cartoon Animator 5?

Thanks so much!
