How to enable 2D graphics acceleration?
-
The graphics for tpt aren't necessarily very complicated; most of the processing is spent on the simulation itself.
-
how to process it on gpu? run app on gpu?
or do you know ways to increase fps?

Some people have made mods that use parallel processing, but they're extremely buggy. If you're really concerned about speed, jacob1's mod runs a few FPS faster than the official, and my mod has faster Lua (but a few fps lower for simulation)
Also, if fps is an issue for you, you should close your other programs before using TPT.

To add to this maybe also try setting TPT to high priority via task manager.

Yes, im closing all programs but fps goes down with too many parcticles.

I have a Core i7 4790k running at 4.5 GHz, and even that lags with a massive particle count. Try to maybe not use so many particles?

I have same cpu :]
but i think, gpu can work even faster than cpu with millions of particles

that's probably faster than most people get with an almost full screen of fire. Fire is very laggy, especially in fire display mode. Nothing display mode (pressing '8') is faster than fire ('4').
As long as you are above about 30fps it should still be reasonable to play at that speed. Maybe eventually certain parts like graphics will be moved onto another core, but no idea how to use the gpu.
