I just got alice madness returns and i was wondering if there was a way to force it to use 4 cores because at the moment it only seems to use two. Im hoping to be able to run the phsyx on the cpu as at the moment with med physics i get 19fps in intense moments so if i could get it using all four cores it should get about 25-30.

I dont know for sure but at a guess id say its probably a poor port from the consoles fault more than the fact its only using 2 cores.

UE3 is built for multi-core support. When I moved up from a dual to a quad there was a massive difference in Unreal Tournament 3 (E6600 to Q6700) - smoother gameplay with no FPS spikes.
For Alice: Madness Returns I believe it all depends on how the game was coded.

i know you can set the affinity to reduce cores but im not sure if you can use it to add them, worth a try though.
Its due to the game using nvida physix and will make you have poor performance on anything other that a nvidia gpu for physix very underhanded by NV and it was aparant with mafia 2 and batman arkham asylum from what i remember reading about
