Main Menu Glitched
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I think maybe I got knocked at the worst time or something while logging out. Anyway, Since then, when I load DayZ from the official launcher, my Main Menu is Glitched like this and I can not chose or create a new character:

Has anyone seen something like this before and know a fix?
unsubscribing from and Removing all mods, or verifying game-files, or even Uninstalling the game and DayZ folder in Documents then reinstalling the game doesn't fix it.

Everytime I start DayZ, I see this glitched UI.
I can still play, though. Just choose a server in the glitched UI and join.
When I then exit the server, I see the normal DayZ UI and can choose characters and play normally from there.
I've taken all my characters to different servers and moved a bit then exited.
Still I get the glitched UI everytime I start DayZ.

Hey Nate_LapT,

it looks like a client launched with -world=none parameter, can you confirm that you don't have that parameter set? Also check parameters tab in the launcher -> all parameters and make sure you don't have the World: parameter checked with "empty" selected.

Thank you very much Dzizuzs. Yours was the correct answer and this annoying issue is fixed now.

What surprises me here, then, is that even a full uninstall of the game, together with deletion of the DayZ folder and files in Documents, hadn't reset that parameter.
