Help with the dayz Launcher

[BRINGit34]

So I am having an issue with the newly released dayz launcher. I am using the appimage on fedora 35 and I have been having an issue where the game will simply not start through the launcher. I believe it is because the launcher is starting the game normally instead of just through the client since when I start the game through steam and run "play dayz client" the game works fine. But I wanna use this launcher so it's not a pain to play modded servers

[muttleyxd]

Hi, please provide logs from launcher's run - it can give us useful information what's the issue. Please start it with --verbose parameter and copy terminal output

Dayz_Linux_Launcher-x86_64.AppImage --verbose

[BRINGit34]

In my own opinion I feel like it's starting "play dayz" on steam instead of "run steam client" because it failing to run is exactly like doing that

[BRINGit34]

If you need any more information just ask

[muttleyxd]

If you need any more information just ask

Sure, I don't have much time to work on this launcher, so sorry for my slow responses.

Can you post these logs again, but wrapped in backticks? I have checked your launch command and it looks okay, but backslahes are corrupted in the command, so I can't be sure if everything is right. By corrupted backslashes I mean this: without wrapping it in backticks: C:\SomeWindowsPath\WithDoubleBackslashes

wrapped in backticks:

C:\\SomeWindowsPath\\WithDoubleBackslashes

first copy all of the terminal logs (again run launcher with verbose option, same as before), then paste them and surround them with backticks

``` PASTE LOGS HERE ```

[BRINGit34]

I'm gonna be honest I really don't understand what you mean by adding backticks because I don't really see anything like the example you've given in the logs

@dzmods\1... - this probably would have been double backslashes, but I can't verify it without it being pasted properly.

okay so looking over it this looks exactly the same as the terminal logs. I see the backticks and stuff so I am not really sure what to do here

oh well not that I sent it, it has no backticks. So maybe it's a github thing. I am not sure. sorry. lol

okay so like this had the backticks and stuff but like it just won't show up on github and stuff when I paste it

[muttleyxd]

Another idea came to my mind - please write output to a file and upload it here - this way it won't break.

arma3-unix-launcher --verbose >log.txt 2>&1

This will create log.txt file which you can upload here

I will try that when I can get a chance. I have been busy so sorry about the slow responses

log.txt Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. But here is my log in a text file
