Game running a bit choppy?
Even if your PC isn’t top of the range, there is still a way to make the game run smoother.
Try this little hack and see if that helps.

  1. Navigate to the game folder, right click on the game application and click 'Create shortcut’

 

2. Right click on the shortcut you created in step 1 and click Properties

3. In the Shortcut tab, paste the following into the Target path depending on where your game folder is located:

  • If the game folder is located in Downloads:

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start "" /High /Affinity 1 "C:\Users\XX\Downloads\Pokemon Empire\Game-z.exe"

Where XX is your windows username

  • If the game folder is located in Documents:

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start "" /High /Affinity 1 "C:\Users\XX\Documents\Pokemon Empire\Game-z.exe"
Where XX is your windows username

  • If the game folder is located on the Desktop:

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c start "" /High /Affinity 1 "C:\Users\XX\Desktop\Pokemon Empire\Game-z.exe"
Where XX is your windows username

4. Click Apply then OK. If done correctly, the shortcut should look like this:

5. Run the shortcut application you just made

 

NOTE: You will have to repeat these steps after every release/patch.

Alternatively, you can simply copy and paste the shortcut into the new game folder and modify the target path
