DAYZ WON'T LAUNCH

[wazard87 1]

Hello!

So, I'm new on DayZ, about 50h, and when I finally figured how to play, the game stop working.

My PC specs are:

Intel i7 9700k

Rog Strix Z390-F Gaming

16GB RAM

GTX 1070

The issue: On the Launcher when I press play I only see a black screen with a blue round pointer (loading) and after some time (less then a minute) the game either crash and close steam, or my pc crash with blue screen 😲

Already try a clean install, update drivers, dx, Disable Steam cloud synchronization...

Also, I would like for you all to look into this video, only have 30 seconds and it's related with my issue, you will see a consume of RAM that I don't think it's normal.

Thank you!

Hi, lets try to cover the basics first.

• Did you already verify your game files via Steam?
• Do you have any launch parameters active in the launcher? If yes, try to remove them first, and try again.
• Did you play on any modded servers before?

---

If this does not help you can try to:

• Navigate in to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\*SteamID*\
  • Then there should be multiple folders, the ones relevant to DayZ are
    • 221100 for stable
    • 1024020 for experimental
  • delete both of them

Let me know how it goes 🙂

• Do you have any launch parameters active in the launcher? If yes, try to remove them first, and try again. I'm not sure, I only choose server and play.
• Did you play on any modded servers before? Yes, but now I can't either play official or modded.

  • Then there should be multiple folders, the ones relevant to DayZ are
    • 221100 for stable Ok
    • 1024020 for experimental I don't have that folder, maybe because I never played Dayz Experimental
  • delete both of them

Let me know how it goes 🙂

After all that the issue continues...

About that RAM consume is that normal? Because the game on launch is using all my RAM

Try the official launcher and see if you can play.

I try everything, not even the game support could help me...I think the only solution left is re-install win10 😔

This game isn't worth reinstalling Windows 10.

I tried out what you said and I got the game to finally load, only problem is that I got an error saying that the game wasn't the correct version. which files specifically did you transfer from dayz exp to dayz sa.
