Anti-aliasing (AA)

This method is very performance demanding and may decrease your general performance.
Enhance in-game MSAA with SGSSAA (Nvidia only)[citation needed]
  1. Set ingame antialiasing to 4xMSAA or 8xMSAA, exit game.
  2. Open Titanfall driver profile via Nvidia Profile Inspector.
  3. Change Antialiasing - Transparency Supersampling to 4x Sparse Grid Supersampling or 8x Sparse Grid Supersampling depending on ingame MSAA setting (they must match)
  4. No need to change anything else. Apply changes, exit Nvidia Inspector and run the game.

Issues unresolved

Connection Errors/Infinite Loop

EA suggests that slower connections may be causing these issues, and suggest resetting your modem/router.[8]

Crashing when accepting an Invite

Accepting an invite to a game that is currently in progress while you are in the middle of a match will crash the game. For now you must exit a match before accepting an invite to prevent crashing.[8]

Sound Crackling

Whenever people are playing in a match on the game, Crackling seems to be a natural occurrence when you are piloting a titan. Hopefully this issue will be fixed, or have a solution found, soon.

Mouse Sensitivity is Tied to Frame rate

Though your game's settings will stay the same, your ability to move your crosshair is currently tied to your frame rate. This is specific to Titanfall, since in most other games, a dip in your frame rate just means that you don't get to see as many frames of your crosshair moving from point A to B, but it will move the same distance at the same speed, regardless of your FPS. However, in Titanfall, if you're running at a steady 60 FPS, and run into a graphically intense scenario dropping your frame rate to 30 temporarily, your crosshair will become sluggish and difficult to move. In bad cases, the motion to move your crosshair from point A to B may only move it about half the distance.

Issues fixed

"Failed to CreateGameWindow. Resolution unsupported?" crash on launch

Titanfall uses 1280x720 by default which some monitors may not be able to switch to.[9]
Set resolution in videoconfig.txt[9]
  1. Go to %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Respawn\Titanfall\
  2. Open videoconfig.txt.
  3. Set a supported resolution and save the file.
  4. The game should now run normally.

"audio.exe was not installed successfully" Error

Titanfall requires a 64-bit OS and will present this error if you attempt to install it on a 32-bit system.[10]

Installation fails at 20%

Reinstall DirectX 9.0 end-user runtimes (available in <path-to-game>\_Installer\directx\redist\DXSETUP.exe)[2]

Installation fails at 31%

Repair Titanfall[2]
  1. Open the My Games tab in the Origin client, right-click on Titanfall, and select Repair.

Installation failures on a FAT32 drive

Convert your game volume to NTFS[2]

Game runs poorly/fails to run on Intel Graphics

Users using integrated Intel graphics should install the latest beta drivers here.[citation needed]

"Failed to get token from Origin" error message

Use an alternative DNS server[2]
  1. Open the Network and Sharing Center.
  2. Click on the Internet connection and select Properties
  3. Select Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
  4. Click the radio button for Use the following DNS server addresses:
  5. Enter Google's DNS servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
  6. Alternatively, enter these servers from OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
  • This can be applied on the router itself rather than on the PC if you'd prefer to use these DNS servers on all devices within your network.
  • This fix may not require any of the other fixes below to function properly.
Repair the game in Origin[2]
  1. Click the My Games tab in Origin
  2. Right-click Titanfall and select Repair
Run the game as an Administrator[2]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>.
  2. Right-click Titanfall.exe and select Run as Administrator.
Clear Origin data cache[2]
  1. Delete %PROGRAMDATA%\Origin\
  2. Delete %LOCALAPPDATA%\Origin\
  3. Delete %APPDATA%\Origin\
Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP[2]
  1. Open the Network and Sharing Center.
  2. Click Manage Network Connections
  3. Right-click Local Area Connection (or similar) and select Properties
  4. Select Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
  5. Click the Advanced button under the General tab, then click the WINS tab
  6. Click Enable NetBIOS Over TCP/IP

Connection issues with Belkin routers

Set static DNS server[2]
  1. Open the Network and Sharing Center.
  2. Click Manage Network Connections
  3. Right-click Local Area Connection (or similar) and select Properties
  4. Select Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4)
  5. Click the radio button for Use the following DNS server addresses:
  6. Enter the DNS servers for your ISP or the public DNS servers 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1

Weak and unsteady performance on "Insane" despite good hardware

Set your texture resolution to "Very High"[2]
  1. The "Insane" texture quality option only works with graphics cards containing 3 GB of VRAM or more. Otherwise your computer will be stuck in an infinite loading loop trying to get back texture assets that were thrown out due to memory shortage. This causes the game to constantly stutter.

Main menu cutscene plays slowly and game crashes soon after

Disable programs using DirectX hooks[2]
  1. Disable any programs such as RivaTuner Statistics Server that attempt to hook into DirectX in games
  2. (Anecdotal: recording programs such as FRAPS or DxTory use DX hooks as well, but seem less likely to pose a problem)

Microstutter or frequent frame rate drops

If running Razer Synapse[2]
  1. Newest Razer Synapse driver package (as of 11/15/14) included 3 different processes that interfere with Origin in-game, before these processes would stop Origin in game and then Origin in game would not start again. However, the newest driver causes Origin in-game to restart constantly every 30–40 seconds, causing micro-stutter.
  2. Disable Razer Synapse on startup OR Open task manager and disable the following processes :
  • RazerInGameEngine
  • Rz.Stats.Manager
  • GameScannerService(razr icon)
Disable Origin overlay also seems to work[2]

Uncap frame rate

Nvidia Users[11][12]
  1. Open Nvidia Control Panel.
  2. Go to Manage 3D Settings > Program Settings and search for "Titanfall.exe" in the dropdown menu. If not listed, click "Add" to manually search for the executable.
  3. Change the Vertical sync option to "Off" and click "Apply".
  4. In Titanfall, go to Options > Video Settings > V-sync and select "Double Buffered".
AMD Users[citation needed]
  1. Open AMD Catalyst Control Center.
  2. Go to Monitor Attributes and uncheck “Use Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) or driver defaults”.
  3. Use the Maximum refresh rate dropdown menu to select your desired refresh rate, then click “Apply”. The screen should go black and issue an “invalid input” notification, but this should be considered normal.
  4. In Titanfall, go to Options > Video Settings > V-sync and select “Disabled”.
