At random times when hitting the "Play" button the game gives me a black screen and when I kill it with the task manager gives an error "UNABLE_TO_INIT_DXGI". It happens without mods and with mods. I've tried the usual steps from the wiki (verify game cache, reinstall, update graphics drivers) it worked sometimes temporarily, but the crash reoccures at random, sometimes only hours after playing without problem if I start Arma again it crashes. {F27802} {F27803} {F27804}

Intresting note: the launch parameters the specified under "Last game report" in the crash report are not the ones I set, both in the steam->properties->set launch parameters, nor the ones I selected in the Arma3 Launcher. For example in the crash log there are mods listed that I didn't load on that game start.
(See attached Screenshot, everything not marked was not put in the launch parameters by me and also doesn't show up when I check them)

Hello,
thank you for the response. However, we cannot determine what exactly caused your game to crash. It is necessary you try to run your Arma without any mods. If the crashes still happen then, please send another crashdumps.
If the crashes stop (on Arma without mods), please try to activate mods one by one until you find out which one causes the crashes.
Mods are not official content from Bohemia Interactive and it is very likely that the CTDs you are experiencing are caused by collisions between two or more mods.
Please let us know, thank you.
Hello,
So I tried launching unmodded and it worked, I then tried it with mods again and it crashed. I also started getting a the crash if I turned mods of again. Only after closing down the launcher and restarting did it work with vanilla again. So the cause of the crash is a mod (and I probably know which one), but apparently it also messes with the launcher which is what got me confused. I attached some crashdumps, with and without mods.
Cheers Schmelzer
