Hello gradyop.
The crash points towards the following: format = 0x00007ff7a7e54c18 "Out of memory (requested %d KB).\n footprint %u KB.\n"

This means that you ran out of memory. Please check your OS has enough allocated memory and none of your RAMs are faulty.

I have the same issue and have followed the same steps as OP. No mods are installed. I'm trying to open a fresh reinstallation of DayZ.

Specifically, my DayZ error is saying "Out of memory (requested -871983 KB). footprint 231045787 KB."
Why is there a negative number in the requested memory?

If this is the only game that has this issue and my system recognizes all 32gb of my ram, would this still be the case?

I can launch experimental and it runs great...... Is there a work around to get regular to launch?

Also confirming experimental works on my end. Weird. Any solution yet @gradyop?

I FOUND A FIX. Finally one from Reddit worked. Try this...

OK..... first of Turn OFF Cloud Sync
Second Delete everything in your Documents\Dayz folder
Third Copy everything from your Documents\Dayz Experimental folder
Finally Paste this into your Documents\Dayz folder
Try again!
if it works turn Cloud Sync back on!
If NOT then try the "bulldozer" option under parameters on the official launcher - Turn it on open game, quit game turn it back off.
Good Luck!
