  • I think this is a bug.. I had to change this in the videoconfig.txt located:
    \Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local
    "setting.r_lod_switch_scale" "1.000000" should be set to a lower value.. I wouldnt go below 0.5 because the ragdolls look like an alien

    What happens when the bug occurs? I cannot change my model detail setting, it is stuck on high. I have tried repairing the game through origin, deleting/installing the game, flushing my dns, clearing the cache, system restore to before it started.I have tried to edit the videosettings file and make it read only however the game settings show to be on low but the model detail is still on high. I have also tried using nvidia geforce experience to change the settings, I even removed/reinstalled it but to no avail, the same with my graphics drivers.
    What should be happening instead? I should be able to change any of the settings and have them be set to what I selected as well as be saved
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I'm not sure, it seems to be pulling settings from somewhere else but I could be wrong ‌

    @EA_Blueberry I have tried some more tests, I have set the line "setting.r_lod_switch_scale" to 0 in the videoconfig file, that seems to load correctly with very little textures, however if I set it to any number more then that, it loads as if it is set to high. I have tried leaving the line blank, it loads as if I input 0, after I close and reload the game, the textures will be on high and will overwrite the videoconfig file to and set it to 1. Even if I set the file to read only, it will load with high model detail settings.
