Hi guys happy to report we made some significant progress! While me running it on my pc was the suggested fix that we found online here (https://feedback.bistudio.com/T142399) we did not get results with that specifically. I ended up having him let me sign in again and I overwrote his cloud data with my local files when prompted while launching. In our process, it was imperative that he not have any of his old steam cloud files on his PC. So I had him uninstall and remove dayz files from his computer while I was overwriting his old cloud files. Basically having a friend log in from another PC, replacing the cloud data, and making sure all his files were deleted was what worked for us. I'm not sure why or how, but I've narrowed it down to some corrupting file on his steam cloud data. Best of luck if anyone else has this issue. This was started in 1.04 and persisted into 1.05 please reach out if there are any further questions I'll be happy to help.

Hi! First off thanks for the continued interest. We personally didn't consider trying to run down the problem like you have suggested and we will be going forward with that in mind. We had more of a "WhAtS tHe SoLuTiOn" kind of thought in our head. For the GPU test we used GFXbench and didn't see any crazy differing results. Both RAM checks and drive checks came out ok. Also a super helpful piece of software (Hirens Boot CD) just in general. Thank you for sharing that. I've now been able to log into his account and was able to get into a public server just fine. He logged back into steam and crashed upon launch just like before. I'd like to add that when he crashes, his game appears to have a memory leak. He's able to talk to us through discord and eventually he claims that 20 or 30 seconds into the crash he stops hearing us. But a memory leak wouldnt make sense to me since we played Rainbow Six today just fine and the RAM tests came back fine. He's also playing on one monitor and can't manage to tab out to view any kind of task manager so I have not been able to take a peek under the hood in that regard.

Thanks for trying.. Just going to hope Bohemia responds to my friend. It's a private thread so if we get a solution I'll be sure to update here!

Thanks for the quick response, He was on a modded server when he initially crashed, and now we've been having him launch in vanilla. This was 1.04 when the crashes started and have persisted into 1.05 All drivers are up to date... We tried resetting antialiasing to 0. A few other solutions we've tried now is launching with parameters -windowed and -autoconfig. We just tried launching without sync to steam cloud and other parameters but he's still having issues.

Of course, totally understand the skepticism. These are his specs taken from the DxDiag he provided me Time of this report: 9/2/2019, 15:00:57 Machine name: LAPTOP-1JMRCEOL Machine Id: {59289C2A-321E-40B2-8D71-27BAABAAA7C4} Operating System: Windows 10 Home 64-bit (10.0, Build 17134) (17134.rs4_release.180410-1804) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: HP System Model: OMEN by HP Laptop 15-ce0xx BIOS: F.07 (type: UEFI) Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.8GHz Memory: 8192MB RAM Available OS Memory: 8078MB RAM Page File: 6536MB used, 12806MB available Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS DirectX Version: DirectX 12 DX Setup Parameters: Not found User DPI Setting: 120 DPI (125 percent) System DPI Setting: 120 DPI (125 percent) DWM DPI Scaling: UnKnown Miracast: Available, with HDCP Microsoft Graphics Hybrid: Supported DxDiag Version: 10.00.17134.0001 64bit Unicode He can't even get to the main character screen, long before he has a chance to join a server. He 'black screens' immediately and the game reportedly crashes on him. I'd also like to add that Dayz has always worked for him without issues until the day where he crashed. So I ruled out him running out of memory or something like that, but I could be mistaken. Edit: I've gone ahead and added the original crash logs to my OP.

Hi guys, a friend of mine has been having some issues over the last 9 or 10 days trying to play Dayz and I'm trying to get his game up and running. The story goes that he was playing with us and when we all crashed everyone but himself was able to jump right back onto the server. We couldn't find a simple fix and so I took a closer look at the crash logs and needless to say I am baffled. We found a solution online from one of the very VERY few people that had the same issue and they suggested having a friend log into the steam account of the affected player from another pc. We tried this and it ended up crashing on his friends PC who can normally play Dayz just fine. We have tried the following, regedit, uninstall, verifying cache, using the client, using the launcher, using the DayzSA launcher, skipping the splash/character screen with steam parameters, and so many more ideas. As of today he reinstalled everything on his pc with a full wipe and a reinstall of windows. He is still having crashes now after reinstalling both steam and Dayz. He has contacted Bohemia on their respective forums for support but has not had a response in 4 or 5 days now. Honestly, I'd be shocked to find a solution here that we have not tried yet but we are willing to do anything at this point. I hear Bohemia can kill characters remotely or offer additional support over there but like I said, we have not gotten a response. Here is a link to a zipped file with his crash logs and a DxDiag report. https://drive.google.com/file/d/18XkNZhZ1mb5kbh5IdbYYTXyB-Z0OPPfq/view He's logging into my account now, hopefully, we can narrow down his issue to being tied to his steam account. Which is the current theory. Like I said, willing to try anything short of microwaving his laptop hahaha! Edit: He was able to log into my account through steam however when trying to launch, he crashed before he could get to the main menu (the same issue he was having before) Edit: Here is one of the crash logs he received after launching. There are several of them but they all provide the same information.
