Steps To Reproduce

Launch game, joining any server or just pressing the play button starts the game. Only black screen nothing else is shown. PC will crash if the game isn't shut down from task manager before ram usage hits 100%.

Additional Information

Happens on my custom made pc and my 2023 zephurys laptop. Seems to be somewhat common of an issue but haven't seen any fixes that would've worked on either of my pcs so far.

Hello SakeTheFinn.
Please try the following:

Verify the game data through Steam and delete the configuration files when prompted to do so (make sure Steam cloud sync is disabled for DayZ before doing this) - you can also delete the config files manually by clearing the C:\Users\*username*\Documents\DayZ folder

Open the DayZ launcher
Select PARAMETERS menu
Select ALL PARAMETERS tab
scroll down and check "Bulldozer" parameter
Launch the game
Once launched, close the game
Uncheck bulldozer
Launch the game again without any parameters

Regards,
Geez
