Hello everyone,
as mentioned above, my game keeps crashing during different moments in the game that, unfortunately, cannot be reproduced. The most consistent I was able to pinpoint it is a crash closely after starting the game (<=10 minutes), but this is not reliable information, since it does not always happen that way. The crash report I attached was such an instance.
More information that I can give about what my computer does when DayZ crashes:
The fans do not seem to be running at all times, but as soon as the game crrashes, the fan starts running almost max speed. I have been checking the temperatures and percentages of my CPU and GPU both in terms of load and temperature.
The highest temperature of the CPU (i7-6700K, 4x4Ghz) while playing DayZ is around 76, with a 90-95% load (never 100!), the GPU runs the game between 70-76*C at around 90% load (Nvidia Geforce GTX 980). It does not seem correlated to the crashes, as the load and temperatures are sometimes low when it crashes.
Now to the crashes themselves:
Right before the crashes, the game freezes for a splitsecond. Very quickly after (<2 seconds) the music and sound of the game stops and the freezeframe persists, until my Computer lets me know that DayZ has stopped working and is not responding anymore. I shut it down and restart the game.
This has happened during random moments in the game that I cannot pinpoint. Sometimes it runs smoothly for 4 hours before it crashes, sometimes (but very rarely) it never crashes at all. This is mostly when I am running through the world. I have no experienced crashes that might have reproducability, for example after I picked up an item, opened the inventory, things like these. On the last crash, I was running on the outskirts towards Elektro (north of it) towards the west along some train tracks. In the past, the game also crashed after running through thick woods, after sitting completely still for a little bit.
I have read online about the issue. There was something about the drive being overloaded or that farming on the server might have an impact on the crash ( apparently a persistent bug that keeps happening).
The crash persists beyond the last patch, the crashes were there before the last major update and they kept happening now.
I'm very much at a loss and would love nothing more than to play without crashes, so any help at all is appreciated. I know that this is not much to go off of, but I'm hoping someone can help anyway.
Thank you!
