Game gets to the point where it states "Checking for fake coin" then crashes. Not all the time, though, just about 70% right now. Why is it crashing, what directory is are the install files at, what directory are the logs files at?
Checking for fake coin (crashing)
@kavren said in Checking for fake coin (crashing):
Still having this issue of crashing to desktop in the "checking for fake coin" loading segment. I can get in about 20% to #30% of the time, though. It's super frustrating. I don't know if this is my end, or a server side problem. Is there some type of support i can get for this problem?
Also, i have uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Still having the same issue.
@kavren Having the same issue here on PC. Game played fine all of yesterday and this morning and all of a sudden won't load past this point. Either freezes at opening Journal, which seems to stay frozen for an eternity, or later freezes at checking for fake coin and then the program turns off. It doesn't even come up with a crash screen from windows. Very weird. Not found any fix yet.
@conorisawake i'm hoping (fingers crossed) that it isn't a client side problem. I'm hoping that the server end is having problems keeping up with all the internet client demands, and so is slow to respond to client side requests, and then the client crashes out cause it's not getting the server response time that it needs.
If this is a client side bug, though, and it isn't addressed in the next 2 business weeks, i'm going to be super frustrated.
Same problem here. I found this in my Windows application log:

Faulting package-relative application ID: AthenaClientShipping@majorwhiplash I doubt it's related but I was able to play several times yesterday and never encountered this issue. Late last night, I saw that Nvidia had released a new Sea of Thieves "Game Ready" driver (391.24) so I updated to that. Now, each time I try to start the game, I get to "Checking for fake coins..." and then, boom....crash. As I said, I wouldn't imagine this is related to the new Nvidia driver but I wouldn't necessarily rule it out. Has anyone else just started experiencing this after upgrading to the latest Nvidia driver?
Yeah same, I updated Nvidia Drivers last night and I was still able to play fine right after.
I started having problems after trying to play the game on PC and Xbox at the same time. Apparently you can only use 1 "copy" of the game even if it's on different consoles and different accounts (trying to cross play with my sister).
Now I can't play on PC. Game closes after being stuck on "checking for fake coin".
Okay update, everything's good now haha.
Don't know if it's cause of this, but I followed these steps from a separate forum:@rommelrox How is your ping? Mine's suddenly hitting the 200s again, and it's definitely not my connection. Trying to figure out if this is related to the previous crashing, might indicate it's again a server problem.
Similar issue here now. I'm having it crash on start up at the "checking fake coin" screen. Even when I'm in game my ping is about 90 on average, but gets up in the 200's frequently and it won't let me use two weapon slots anymore. My missions are being given when I buy them from vendors and more than once all my money has disappeared. Definitely some serious bugs that need worked out.
@rommelrox a dit dans Checking for fake coin (crashing) :
Okay update, everything's good now haha.
Don't know if it's cause of this, but I followed these steps from a separate forum:Thx ! had this bug, and one of theses solutions hepled me, :)
@losstaroths which one helped? i did these steps and i still get the same problem. Mind you, the problem isn't that the client always crashes, just that it crashes almost always, and at the checking fake coin screen.
@kavren
for me, this one
"Fix #3Go to the below link and save / run the tool. Follow the on screen instructions to troubleshoot / fix your issue.
"But in my case, the game seemed to always crashes
Ok, so i think this is server side. As of this moment, sea of thieves servers are having a new problem (per https://www.seaofthieves.com/status). And with that, I can now get past "checking fake coin" and to the "loading supplies" portion of the loading. Also, the client doesn't crash (as of this moment).
My assumption is: since there is new server side stuff happening (new issues) and i can now consistently get past the "checking fake coin", i think this is server side related.
"this" meaning: my client crashes 70% to 80% of the time at the "checking fake coin" loading portion of the screen, and loads in and is playable 20% to 30% of the time.
Ok, now i only get the "loading supplies" then "The Sea of Thieves Services are temporarily unavailable. Please try again. (Daffodilbeard)." error. I press the enter key and get sent back to the "Press and key to continue" menu.
https://www.seaofthieves.com/status says "All services are running normally".
My client is no longer crashing, and getting past "checking fake coin", but i am still not getting into the game.
@kavren mine resolved last night could play fine.
Still haven't had chance though to see if my son can play with me (xbox/pc) the same as we did in Beta, will be a bit disappointed if that can't happen..
