Extremly bad graphics, cant start up blackscreen
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Hello.

I bought your game during the steamsale today 21/6-14.

After downloading and installing it, i was exited to play.
It came on, and the loading screen started - i then entered the main menu.

The graphics was terrible. Like, REALLY bad. "Wierd" i think - lets try to find the settings.

Oh, but the graphis were so bad i couldnt even read what anything said.

Eventually i could, what looked like Russian grammar, read out what my graphics settings was.

"Very high" on everything. What the f..
So i went to check the resolution

I can go from 160x??? to 640x320. I cant even get better resolution.

What do i do to fix this? Reinstalled once already.

After the re-installation, i cant even load the game anymore.
It loads up, becomes black and stays there. I can see the cursor? but i am unable to do anything. If i try to alt+f4 nothing happens. I cant even get my taskmanager up via ctrl alt delete because the resolution is so small.
All to do is a reboot.

Win 7,
Intel i7 4810MQ 2.80 ghz
Nvidia geforce GTX 870M

Hi,

At the main menu, click Configure -> Video -> User Interface and use the Resolution drop down list to select your resolution.

Make sure the Aspect Ratio option matches the aspect ratio of your resolution.

Close the config settings completely and return to the main menu.

Then open Config again, click Video and then select your resolution from the Rendering Resolution drop down list.

This should return your game back to normal resolution.

Open dayz.cfg file and type "your real resolution" in there like ; for example your desktop resolution 1920X1080

change older one like that... delete 640 and 480 and type your resolution...
Resolution_W=1920;
Resolution_H=1080;

then open the game and change your resolution to 1920X1080 and change interface size to normal and change aspect ratio then you'll solve your problem...
