wooly-back-jack 294 Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) you have messed with gfx options so goto my documents/dayz and delete the profile/cfg that is using the settings, that's why reinstalling didn't help. Your profile is saved in my documents. Edited March 28, 2015 by wooly-back-jack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n1kko 326 Posted March 29, 2015 Does it crash on startup, when you join a server, or after a few minutes of gameplay? Also, You need to delete the entire DayZ folder thats in your documents folder, not just the files you edited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kronons 98 Posted March 29, 2015 I think it's your launch options. Go back to the tutorial and check the launch options section. Crashes usually occur when there is an issue with memory. Check to see if you designated too much ram for dayz. If you give dayz all your ram then your os and other programs don't have any. Thus causing you to crash.

n1kko 326 Posted March 31, 2015 Do what he said, reset your launch options to default and verify integrity of the game cache.Also, do the normal BS you would do with stuff that doesn't work as well, I.E. update drivers, blah blah blah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
