[FIX] Stabilize CTD ( Random Crash to Desktop )

Okay guys i've been testing this for over 60 games and i had 3 crashes so its not a fix but more of a stabilization.

First we create a autoexec.cfg ( has to be a .cfg file not autoexec.txt.cfg !! ) at C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\cfg folder and write these down and save it :

then we go to this folder C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local and find videoconfig.txt and paste these down and save. MAKE SURE IT IS READ-ONLY AFTER YOU SAVE IT. Just right click the videoconfig.txt , go to settings and check the READ-ONLY button.

Then we go to Origin and right click Apex Legends on My Game Library. Go Game Proporties>Advanced Launch Options and put these down

As i said, this just made my game crash A LOT less than how it was. A friend of mine sent this so i don't know if i should give credits to someone. Hope it works for you guys

Note: These settings are for 1080p-144hz. Adjust the settings by going through them if you use any other hertz-resolution.
