    I play BeamNG in my laptop for a while (a MSI Gs70 Stealth) and suddenly, when I open it through the Steam it uses the integrated graphics intead of using the GPU (it even shows in the MSI Afterburner that the GPU is at 0%, and becaus of that I need to open the game through the PC files and right clic on the BeamNG to use the GPU (even if I config it to be the standard to be used) and I need to to this every time I want to play.

    (Sorry for any problems with my english, I'm brazilian and not too used to write in english)

    Read carefully, you need to configure your Dedicated Graphics correctly.

    It's configurated correctly because all the other games use the Dedicated GPU, only Beamng don't.

    Some game requires you to specifically add the correct .exe to your Graphics Control Panel.

    To see if the game is actually using your Dedicated GPU or not:
    In-game, go to HELP > PERFORMANCE and press ALT+O.
    Copy here the link you get.
