The Instruction at 0x004a15d7 referenced memory at 0x724e6000
New, WishlistPublic

Description

After playing the experimental branch for a bit today i noticed recurring crashes because of memory errors.

The error reads "The Instruction at 0x004a15d7 referenced memory at 0x724e6000 The memory could not be written."

I have a total of 8GB Ram and Windows has allocated another 8GB of virtual memory.

So far no issues since I started using "-malloc=system -maxMem=2047".

I have the same

Bugs still appear for me after 1 minute of gameplay or even when i log in can't even play.

Me and my friend have exact same bug occuring over and over.

Yeah it's a pain. I did however not encounter any issues since i started using -malloc=system -maxMem=2047 as launch parameters.

Played with four other guys today and it happened to everybody.

Same error here, game has always worked fine until new 0.54.126645 update, now it crashes every 45min-1hr, what is most annoying is after re-joining server for the 2nd or 3rd time, I join as a new spawn and lose all my gear!!!

PLEASE FIX

I have the same error http://i.imgur.com/05xQt25.jpg
FIIIXXXXXX PLEASEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

pretty much same error here only a couple different numbers. only started happening since .54 "stable." keyword "stable"

Guys really, try these as starting parameters: -malloc=system -maxMem=2047

1.) Right click DayZ on steam
2.) Click on Properties
3.) Click Set launch options
4.) Enter: -malloc=system -maxMem=2047 so it looks like this

I had the same thing happen its a problem with memory management. It would appear that if you have a lot of memory this can occur. Not sure if it might be cpu also.

Here's how to fix it :-
And it will fix it!

Lets assume you have steam.

  1. Right click on DayZ in steam and select properties.
  2. Click on the general TAB along the top. (Might already be on that)
  3. At bottom of screen click on "Set Launch Options"
  4. A Box will open type in ---> -maxMem=2048

Do not include ---> its simply pointing to what you type.

This will cure the trouble your having. If it still occurs you might what to also try.

How many extra cores/threads your CPU has, see the list below:
Amd cpus:
-Dual Core: -cpuCount=2, -exThreads=1
-Quad Core: -cpuCount=4, -exThreads=3
-Six Cores: -cpuCount=4, -exThreads=5
-Eight Cores: -cpuCount=4, -exThreads=7
Intel cpus:
-Dual Core: -cpuCount=2, -exThreads=1
-Dual Core with 4 threads: -cpuCount=2, -exThreads=3
-Quad Core: -cpuCount=4, -exThreads=3
-Quad Core with 8 threads: -cpuCount=4, -exThreads=7

example my added line would be ---->
-maxMem=2048 -cpuCount=4 -exeThread=7

If your not using steam find your game exe file and add it.
