DayZ start button (icon) "play" -dont react

[Anubisx84x1 0]

Realy nice!

I played before 4 hours. So then I got freeze game. Then I tried alt+crtl+delete (program dont responding) = close. Then I try start the game and nothing happend..just 5 second "working circle at cursor" thats all...no error no message...via steam or via desktop icon. Then I try reinstall game and restart PC ...same problem nothing help.

 

So funny! I never cheat/hack any game and now its look like I got ban or what?

 

I demand moderator or staff reaction! Because I realy cant start game itself.

Thanks

You tried repairing your instalation?

yes I do. No changes

[Cliyde 3]

Delete your Dayz and Dayz Other Profiles folders located in your documents folder. After that try repairing your installation and run Dayz.

Then remove every trace of DayZ,

 

I am not telling you to do this, but you MAY try using a program such as CCleaner to clean your registry after uninstalling completely.

 

Then re-install.

Did you delete your DayZ profile settings folder usually located somewhere in my documents (if it is the same as the Arma 2 one)?

 

Re-installing the game won't be any good if it is one of those settings files that get left behind and are still there even after you re-install.

Go back to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\DayZ and paste the contents of DayZ.rpt in to some Quote or Code marks.

 

Quote & Code BBCode selectors are on the forum message editor options.

Go to your user profile and type "\AppData\Local\DayZ" manually (without quotation marks)

 

Or Press Alt, click Tools -> Folder Options -> View -> Show Hidden Files & Folders.

there is what the file have in:

 

Both of you try opting in to the experimental build (or opt out if you're already in) and launch then.

Have a loot at Task Manager -> Processes and see if "DayZ.exe" starts up at all after you click Launch or Start.

 

If DayZ.exe is already running in "Processes" then click the Process and "End"

I switch to experimental version...nothing help..I open my task manager and dont see any running process like dayz. It seems like task manager never pop dayz process up.

[purpple 9]

Ok, Colin. But, for me, i can see dayz.exe in task manager (both experimental and normal) and i cannot kill it.

Can you explain more specifically what you want us to do please ? Cause we can't kill the process, computer is totally freezed.

 

I mean, i can kill it if i launch the game and go back straight away on desktop and open task manager, then i can kill it, but if i try to click on play or open server browser, game freeze totally my computer and i have to ctrlaltdel to restart.

 

Thanks.

Both different issues, I have partially diagnosed Anubis' issue in private messaging.

 

You have two things to try

 

1) Restart your PC, update your drivers.

 

2) Click Start -> Right click Computer -> Manage -> Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Application.

 

Look for any Red Errors that happened Recently and check to see if "DayZ.exe" is listed in the General Tab description in the Event Viewer, post any errors you find in a ticket on the Bug Tracker.

 

I cannot offer too much assistance because I do not know what the forum policies are on this; I may receive a warning post or an infraction.

 

If the forum staff say it's okay, then I'll provide offering assistance.

[purpple 9]

Ok, thank colin. I'll help the team by posting error if there is one.

Thank you.

purpple, Uninstall Stem completely, use CCleaner to clean your Registry; click "Scan" under the Registry section, then Clear.

 

Re-install steam and re-download DayZ.

 

NOTE! Doing this will delete all of your steam downloaded games, may be worth while backing up your "SteamApps\Common" folder if you don't have a fast net speed.

 

--Update--

 

Verified fix: Uninstall Steam, Clean Registry with CCleaner and re-install steam thus re-installing DayZ
