without methods to reproduce the crash, this does not narrow down the cause enough to rule out the problem being hardware side as opposed to software. I myself have never had this happen, although i have had the odd crash to desktop but this is going back a few builds now, have not had a serious crash for a while

Hello,

Please let us know in the note section if you are still able to reproduce this issue on the latest Development build.

If so, please send us a dxdiag report and files from this folder: "C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\DayZ\"

If the *.rar is smaller than 5.000KB, you can attach it here.
In case it's larger than that, please try uploading it to a file sharing website and link it here.

For future reports please refer to the "How to guide" http://feedback.dayzgame.com/how-to-user.html

Thank you.

thank you I think this is a video sittings issue (not sure!) because it happens randomly (currently everything is fine :)

Here is Dxdig and Dayz folder in "C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\DayZ\"

So are you able to play the game now? Have you encountered any more crashing since this was reported?

Thanks

I am able to play normally now didn't encounter any crash after the report (till now) it looks like when I changed my video sittings this happened I don't know which ( texture , shadow etc...) one exactly everything seems to be fine now I hope it doesn't happen again. Thank you
