Apex Legends Engine Error: How to Fix the Problem
By Nathan Fusco
Apex Legends Engine Error seems to only effect PC players of Apex Legends, and it completely crashes the client. Usually, an Engine Error (DXGI, CreateTexture2D, or CreateShaderResourceView) message appears on the screen while the game crashes.
Here's how to fix the problem.
Revenant was once the greatest hitman the Syndicate ever had. But when his programming failed, he saw what Hammond Robotics had turned him into. Hammond Robotics' return to the Outlands has renewed his thirst for vengeance, and he won’t stop until they’re all dead. pic.twitter.com/bYnudFf5C4

Apex Legends Engine Error: How to Fix the Problem
Sadly, for most players, outside of reinstalling the game, there weren't many fixes. A few people have stated, "disabling overlays, other applications and by lowering the Nvidia Graphics driver to 417.71," they found a fix. Players also found some solutions by lowering the graphic settings in the game or turning the display mode to Window or Window Borderless. None of these are guaranteed to work and you be stuck.
If they don't fix the problem, head to steam, and uninstall the game. These error messages usually only appear if there were issues during the initial install.
