I use versioning format as in DayZ.exe attributes.

I use the format as displayed in the main menu, but your way is valid as well. My point though was that you wrote "<b>144</b>" while it is "<b>114</b>". But it doesn't matter at all in the context. ;-)

Seems working. I tied not deleting the X, and wrote the new username.
Then deleted X. Strange.

Do you mean, you change it in the main menu by writing your name (behind the "X") and then deleting the "X"?
Or did you set your username as launch parameter?

Thanks Johnny, I'll check it.

Oops, there's a slight mistake, mate. ;-)

It's
0.33.<b>114</b>926
not
0.33.<b>144</b>.926
as you wrote.

Btw, have you probably set the launch parameters "-name=..." for DayZ in Steam?
Because if so and you have spaces in your name, this will only display the name until the first space and consider the rest as a new launch parameter (which of course cannot be handled).

But still, this would only apply if your name starts with "X ". Otherwise this is very unlikely the cause.

Improved summary and title as Johnny suggested

Tbh, it took me some time to realize that by "926", you mean the latest update (0.33.114926)

Better make that clear in the summary.

Regards,
Johnny
