Re: Resolution Problem (Apex Legends)

C:\Users\<YOUR USERNAME>\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local

videoconfig > open with note pad.

Find these command lines and input your resolution, fullscreen "0" and "no window border" "1"

Example > 

"setting.defaultres" "1920" < Width>
"setting.defaultresheight" "1080" <Height>
"setting.fullscreen" "0"
"setting.nowindowborder" "1"

save file > reopen to check changes stuck

Apex must be closed during these changes otherwise it will overwrite upon closing. 

Works for me.

    Upon further testing, it seems setting fullscreen "0" and "nowindowborder" "1" will revert to your desktops native resolution upon exiting the game

    I don't claim to have any knowledge about this but I :

    Origin, properties, compatibility, change high DPI settings, High DPI scaling override, check the box, set to application, apply.

    After this it allowed me to change the resolution in game, worked for me.

    Hey,

    So I know this was from  like a year ago but do you know if there is another way to fix this, I tried this method andit does work. But when i go ingame I want to be able to change my resolution to 4:3 and it's stuck in 1280x720 when i go into fullscreen mode.
