DayZ UNPLAYABLE
Need More Info, NormalPublic

Description

since 0.63 hit stable branch i have been unable to play, the text fields in menu (settings, main menu, server list etc) are all missing the text characters and remain blank, and when i go through and click on servers, they do populate the list (server names show but blank boxes all over the official, lan etc and right side) i click one to join and it fails to join, with the msg 'kicked: you have modified files: anims.pbo - when i delete this, varifying cache doesnt pick it up as missing, and when retrying connection on game it'l point out another pbo, offline is as unplayable as i cant tab in, there are no text in any boxes, pause doesnt function & the game ultimately crashes,
i have varified cache, tried experimental, stress test and legacy, i have reinstalled too many times, moved dayz to my c drive, re-installed drivers, tried different hardware, tried different OS, confirmed versions are correct - i really dont know what to do

Hello PokeyBumWank and thank you for the report.
If you remove the appmanifest_221100.acf file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps, uninstall the game and change your download region, does the issue still appear even upon re-installing and launching the game? Also, are you using any startup parameters?
Regards,
Geez
