Thank you I’ll give those a look, i believe I may have fixed it but it has been due to a mis communication between NVIDIA and Apex. If nvidia has gsync on but apex has v sync I noticed that’s when it crashes + if I tried using a colour game filter it wouldn’t work either
- @distortedvzn
Yes this would indeed cause conflicts, for better or for worse, turn them both off and start Apex normally.Yeah, idk anymore I had it working for a short while and now it’s not working anymore. Driving me nuts I’ve tried everything at this point I think it’s a miscommunication between NVIDIA and Apex but idk how I can fix it
- @distortedvzn Thats not good to hear, however if thats what you did then it may play a roll if it fixed it self for a short period of time.
If you updated your drivers to the most recent, have you tried rolling them back to the previous version before the most recent?
its always safe to say if you don't need to update drivers the second they drop, they're bound to have issues (atleast i don't personally)
Another thing you can try is if you open up GEFORCE EXPERIENCE and go to Apex Legends details, you can optimize the game this way. This would be worth a try.
Also, do you have anything in your launch options?
