do i have to make a whole new file? or put it in the launcher.exe? i'm not very tech savvy when it comes to things like this.

@EA_David It works! thank you!

@Skeletishe You are completely correct, sorry for mistyping it initially, edited now. 

@Perkosaurus Hey, it should be as simple as creating the file using notepad within the C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\STAR WARS Battlefront folder. 

Please let us know how you get on. 

Spoiler

Right click on empty space in the Battlefront folder, hen choose New > Text Document. Name it "user.cfg" and drop in the text above.

If you have issues, you may need to unhide file extensions. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ie/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions#show-hide-file-name-extens...

@iamndonn Thanks for the confirmation!

Thank you so much to everyone that contributed to my original issue. Seems like we have a semi permanent fix and I'm still amazed that this community could come together and fix this issue. Special thanks to @EA_David and @mitchycola for their fixes. LETS PLAY BATTLEFRONT!

Appreciate the info, but trying the user.cfg suggestion has yielded no results
