Many people do not have this issue which would suggest its something on my system, I get this on two different computers. Issue is not resolved by reinstalling arma3 and deleting all bohemia user etc settings directories found on on C: and launching arma3 without any addons or even existing profiles directory (steam -> arma3 -> play game -> a3 launcher -> PLAY).

Hello.

Does this happen only on modded maps?

My demo video is from custom terrain, but the Map-Icons-Duplicated-Bug.png is from altis and as I thoroughly explained that I launched arma3 without addons or even profiles directory and the same duping happens.

I noticed if you create a server using SteamCMD the duplication not happens, but i still have crash o when zooning on the map. I'm using BRPVP mission (www.brpvp.com.br).

This is hard to pinpoint since we can't recreate this issue on our machines.

@asilvero If the game crashes for you then please upload your ArmaReport here. Here is how to do that.
