This will help with stuttering as well

press CTRL + ALT + DELETE to bring up the Task Manager, go to processes, select the game’s respective exe file and set priority above normal or higher. You must do this everytime you play the game.

I have tried this, but it keeps saying "access denied". I can set every other program i am running to high priority except for swtor.

The rest of the settings should be left as Default. Make sure you have max-prerendered frames on "1" and Triple buffering = ON as this is what I suspect is making the game run smooth.

Wow. I can't believe this freakin worked! I tip my hat to you Demetriscy. You get 893 gold stars! If this had not worked, I'd have canceled my cartel expansion pre-order in addition to canceling my sub. It was literally THAT bad for me, and I was at my wits end.

Nothing worse than wanting to play a game that the developers don't give a rats tail about optimizing. It's ironic really. Bioware/EA are more concerned about revenue than they are about providing a quality product. Apparently, someone over there missed the class in college where they talk about the link between customer satisfaction and the bottom line. Smart Business 101. And yet the game is still suffering from graphical and immersion breaking bugs that have gone unresolved since launch. It breaks my heart.

Anyway, enough of my little soapbox. Again Deme, thank you for creating this thread and helping people like me.

Run Process Explorer as Admin when you want to raise the priority manually, there are also several tools out there that you can use to automate this process every time you start the program.
