Invalid Format when loading

Recommended Posts

I have searched Google and not found much help, so here goes.

 

I installed DayZ on my old PC and it ran perfectly fine, now after upgrading my PC it wont load up and all that happens is the screen goes black and then it says 'Invalid Format' over and over.

 

I know it must be the resolution but I have know idea how to change it to my native rez, can someone link me something or help me though this please.

 

thanks

Go to C:\Users\<YourProfile>\Documents\DayZ

There should be a CFG file in there where you can edit your resolution.

The CFG file should look like this or something similar depending on your specs:

language="English";
adapter=-1;
3D_Performance=93750;
Resolution_Bpp=32;
Resolution_W=1024;
Resolution_H=768;
winX=16;
winY=32;
winW=800;
winH=600;
winDefW=800;
winDefH=600;
refresh=75;
Render_W=1280;
Render_H=900;
FSAA=0;
postFX=0;
GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1000;
GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=2;
HDRPrecision=8;
lastDeviceId="";
localVRAM=530321408;
