Error "processing and compiling shaders"

I'm also having this issue.
I can't seem to find a way to make Apex cache the shaders after they are compiled.
It always starts the game by Processing and Compiling Shaders.

I tried the shader on/off fix:

• Updated to latest NVIDIA driver

• Turned Shader off in NVIDIA Control Panel

• deleted cache files in %localappdata%/NVIDIA/DXCache

• Restarted computer

• Turned shader back on with values 10/100/Default

• Started the game, waited for first "Processing and Compiling Shaders"

• Exited the game

• Started the game

  • Result: still processing and compiling 6.800 shaders

I tried the verify integrity fix:

• go to Steam

• Oen Apex Properties

• Go to Local Files

• Verify Integrity of Game Files for Apex

  • Result: still processing and compiling shaders but now I have more shaders to compile (previousle ~6.800 and now it's ~10.000)

I tried running Apex with DX12:

• Go to C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\Apex Legends\

• Open r5apex_dx12.exe

• (or add to the launch options: -eac_launcher_settings SettingsDX12.json)

  • Result: still processing and compiling 10.000 shaders

I can't seem to find a way to tell Apex to just cache the compiled shaders..!
