Please install latest graphic drivers. Usage of driver cleaner before installing new drivers will make sure you have no corrupted drivers left on computer.

Can you try install latest Direct X please?

Do you have similar issues with other DirectX 11 games?

Thank you.

Hi again.
Well, i did all of that yesterday (thanks, i needed to rearrange my desktop icons because of that qq ) but sadly that did not help.
So far i don´t have any other game running into trouble. Right now i am downloading Tomb Raider, will give feedback if there are any problems or not in dx11 mode.

This is your problem:
C:\Spiele\Steam\steamapps\common\Arma 3\@ANZINS\dta\bin.pbo - unknown

You are loading an old bin.pbo with newer exe.
Fix: Remove @ANZINS

BI job: Handle dta files to exe mismatch better/with clear error message.

Yeah, absolutely right. Removing anzins from the starting parameters worked perfectly.
Now running without any problems again. Thanks!

Would indeed have helped me a lot if i at least knew where to search for the error.

Mass closing ancient tickets with no activity this year; assume fixed or too trivial etc.

If this issue is still relevant in current dev build, please create a new ticket referencing this one and request for it to be re-opened.
