DayZ
Dayz crashes on game exit
Title.
I dont know why it does it, but it happens to my friend too.
Every time I exit the game, it hangs for like a min on black screen then throws up an error.

Verifying, reinstalling, other drives, mods, no mods.
It always acts the same.

If anyone has had this issue and resolved it, I'd greatly appreciate a fix lol

(next exit I'll paste the crash dump)

Best I can figure, from my various crash logs, is that it has something to do with the timing of the process of closing the game, and something in the code is making the process hang, which then throws the error of being unable to write/read to/from a memory address.

I get the same thing about 80% of the time when closing the game... hangs for a second then error comes up.... meh... not really a problem (yes its annoying). What your going to want to do is empty that log dump folder every now and then. Its size can grow very very fast.

Guess its just a waiting game atm. I'm assuming it'll be patched once the new DLC is released. Hopefully.

Same here. Crashes when I exit the game client every time, but only on 1 PC I have. The PC it crashes on is an Intel Core i7-4770 with an Nvidia 1080. Another PC I have never has this issue with an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T and an AMD Radeon RX 590. Both PCs are running Win 10, have 16 GB of RAM, and are running off of SSDs.

This seems to confirm my suspicion that these random crashes are somehow related to Nvidia (drivers/gpu/other software) but I have still not been able to pinpoint any specific cause. (I run a Ryzen5 + RTX3060)

Hello everyone,

I have the same problem when closing Dayz, as soon as the game closes I get two error/crash messages.

Has anyone already found a solution to the problem?
Updating the Nvidia drivers has not been successful either.

Thank you all in advance :beanz:

I've had that a few times now since the update.

No complete solution as of yet, but I've concluded that it has to do with various random combinations of Mods .. Some of those mods on their own do not trigger the crash on Close, but when others are added, a crash is guaranteed every close.
Example, you have 5 mods and get a crash, but any combination of only 3 of those 5 and no crash, but add any remaining mod (for total 4 mods) and crash is likely, but not 100%.
Not just Nvidia I used to play on a 3080ti and it never crashed on exit now I have the 9070xt and it crashes every time almost. Both builds use Ryzen CPUs

Interesting, next time I install it I'll run without mods to see if it still does it.

Same experience here. I usually play on low mod or vanilla servers without any mods. Those server who have more than like community tools and admin tools mods get the crash upon exit but those who only use the community tools and admin tools as well as those who are completely vanilla without any mods don´t get these crashes.
