TWEAKING APEX LEGENDS SETTINGS FOR A GREAT FPS BOOST
First of all you need to have started your game, then put everything to low. Disable anything that can be disabled and put the rest to low, set target framerate as 60(if your FPS is terrible, if its OK but you just want higher, set the max to whatever u want. If you set it too high, your pc will run hot.)
Be sure to set the lowest resolution because it helps a lot.
CREATE AUTOEXEC.CFG IN /ORIGIN/APEX/CFG(UNDER YOUR ORIGIN INSTALL FOLDER)
(if it doesnt show file extension, go to start menu, type folder options and then unselect ”hide extensions for known filetypes” and press ok)
Enter this into autoexec.cfg and hit save:
fps_max 80
//(Set this to something between 60-144 if you are using a laptop so it doesnt overheat)
mat_compressedtextures 1
cl_ragdoll_collide 0
EDIT APEX LEGENDS VIDEOCONFIG.CFG
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local
Make a backup copy of your videoconfig.cfg, then edit videoconfig.cfg(not the copy).
You need to check “setting.stream_memory” in your old file file, put your original value of this setting in the new config file below.
To adjust: If you want to increase graphic quality(which will lower FPS), or increase FPS and lower quality even more, you can change the setting: “setting.r_lod_switch_scale” “0.5” (0.35 for the 720p one), this can be changed between 30 and 80(?).
Then replace everything in videoconfig.cfg with this:
