How to Fix Minecraft Crashing

fix minecraft crashing

Do you experience frequent crashes while playing Minecraft? Here’s a quick fix.

The popular online game – Minecraft – has millions of players across the globe, most of whom enjoy the excitement the game offers, both in the single-player and multiplayer modes. However, one notable downside of this game is the numerous complaints about the issue of ‘game crashing’. In fact, it’s been reported, by some players, that the game crashes at startup.

If you are experiencing this, follow through this tutorial to fix the error.

How to Fix Minecraft Crashing

Fix 1: Reboot PC

If you encounter frequent game crashes on Minecraft, force-closing the game is not applicable. Hence, as a first line of defence, you can restart your computer to clear off temporary files and fix minor glitches or bugs.

To do this:

  • close Minecraft
  • restart computer or power it off and on.
  • relaunch game.

If the game still crashes, you can try the next fix.

Fix 2: Reset CPU Speed to Default

Adjusting CPU to run faster than the standard speed could have a ripple effect on the smooth running of some apps/processes on your system. And Minecraft could be a victim here.

Hence, if you have, at one point or another, reconfigured your CPU speed rating, simply set it back to default and see if it fixes the game crashing error.

Fix 3: Update Security Patches

All apps, especially those still under development, have bugs, and this is the idea behind the continuous release of updates and patches to fix identified bugs. So, if Minecraft crashes frequently on your PC, a bug(s) in the game could be the culprit.

To install the latest patches, go to Minecraft’s official website.

Fix 4: Reinstall Minecraft

If, after updating patches, Minecraft still crashes, you can reinstall the program and see if it fixes the error. Simply remove the game from your computer and go to the designated site to reinstall it.

Minecraft still crashes? try the next fix.

Fix 5: Update Graphics Drivers

If your PC’s graphics drivers are out-of-date or if a driver is missing, you are bound to encounter crashes such as this.

To update graphics drivers, navigate to the website of your graphics card manufacturer and install the latest drivers. For NVIDIA, go here.

This should fix the crashing error.

How to Jailbreak iOS 12 – 12.3

Currently, the most advanced iOS jailbreak is the one for iOS 12 – 12.1.2; none is currently available for iOS 12.2 to 12.3. Therefore, this tutorial will show you how to jailbreak iOS 12 – 12.1.2.

Although iOS 12 hosts an interesting set of features, it can’t execute functions like “installation of iFIle” and “customization of Messages among others”, which are only supported on jailbroken iOS devices.

To Jailbreak your iOS 12 – 12.3 device, follow the guides herein.

How to Jailbreak iOS 12 – 12.3

iOS 12.3, which was released two weeks back, on May 13, is the latest and most advanced version of Apple’s iOS. However, there is currently no jailbreak for this version, and there probably won’t be any, as iOS 13 Beta launches later this year (in June). Therefore, we’ll be showing you the next best thing – the jailbreak for iOS 12 – 12.1.2.

Two basic methods are commonly employed here. They include:

Method 1: Using Chinera

If your device is running on the A12 chipset (iPhone XR/XS/XS Max), Chinera is the ideal tool for you.

To jailbreak your iPhone using Chinera, follow the guidelines below:

  • Navigate to fun on your device.
  • Search for ‘Chinera’ and install it.
  • Navigate to Device Management under Settings.
  • Locate “Electra” (Chinera’s developer), tap on it and enable the “trust the certificate” option.
  • Launch Chinera.
  • Find the “Jailbreak” icon and tap on it.
  • Wait for the jailbreak to run (it might take some time).
  • Restart device once the process is complete.

Your iPhone/iPad should now be jailbroken; you can now enjoy the exclusive tweaks it offers.

Method 2: Using Unc0ver

This is best suited for jailbreaking iPhones and iPads running on A7 – A12. This basically covers all iOS devices from iPhone 5S to iPhone X.

To jailbreak your iOS device using Unc0ver, follow the steps below:

  • Go to fun; search for and install Unc0ver.
  • Go to Device Management and “trust the certificate” for Unc0ver’s developer.
  • Launch Unc0ver and tap on the “jailbreak” icon.
  • If you encounter any glitch, reboot device and restart the process.
  • Allow the jailbreak to finish.
  • Restart device.

Note: Before running a jailbreak, remove all iOS 12 OTA files from your device, and back up all essential files to iCloud or iTunes.

iOS 12 Jailbreak Update – Version 12., 12.3 Security Issues Fixed

A jailbreak that can function on iOS versions 12.2 and 12.3 has not been created yet. However, security researcher Dany Lisiansky says that these iOS versions still feature weaknesses that Apple still didn’t fix.

The security researcher has previously identified numerous vulnerabilities in the 12.2 version of iOS, but the tech giant behind the OS has since patched the glitch. However, Lisiansky is positive that a fully functioning iOS 12 jailbreaking tool will soon be created, according to Business Times.

Lisiansky’s confidence comes as a blunt opposition to prior statements of one of the most renown security researchers in the community, @Pwn20wnd. He stated that the actual iOS jailbreak would be the last development of this kind because Apple is elevating its security protocols with their every update of the operating system.

The upcoming iOS 13 is anticipated to level up its security system as Apple is making efforts in finding the vulnerabilities Lisiansky talked about. At the moment, there are two best jailbreak solutions to unlock an Apple device that comes with a pre-installed 12.2 version into its system: the iOS 12 jailbreak unc0ver app, and the Chimera 1.0.7.

@Pwn20wnd said that those users who want to jailbreak their device should not update their device’s OS to the 12.2 variant because even the best professionals within the hacking communities are having a hard time defeating its system. The researcher announced that it would take some time before a fully functioning iOS 12 jailbreak will roll out. Even though it looks he might be right; numerous developers are currently searching in private to discover the vulnerabilities and opened doors that Apple has not yet find in the iOS 12.

The reveal of the new iOS 13 will take place at the upcoming WWDC 2019 event, scheduled to take place in June. Of course, both developers and users are anxiously awaiting to see what this new update will feature. If there are any weak points, there is no question that developers like @Pwn20wnd and Dany Lisianksy will exploit it, even though the tech giant behind iOS 13 is working on such glitches and will quickly act upon it.

MX Player New Update is planning to Add Assist for Video Games

Recently people started speculating that video player and OTT platform MX Player may soon be able to play Android games. The MX Player is a video player developed by J2 Interactive, a South Korean company and the OTT platform is owned by Times Internet, India’s largest media conglomerate. The platform is available outside India only as an offline video player.

On LinkedIn Times Internet posted a job opportunity for a games engineer with experience in Cocos2d-x. Cocos2d-x is an open-source software framework with a platform dependent layer. It can be used to build games, apps and other cross interactive programs. Cocos2d-x is an easy-to-use open source 2D very popular game engine. The assumption is that MX player will test the water with Android first as the job description is requiring “experience in building Android apps” besides “familiarity with Android app development”. Another demand is the knowledge to “integrate and optimize games built using Cocos2d-x framework into the MX Player Android app” as well as the expertise to build “platform capabilities to support ease of game development and publication on the MX Player platform.”

All this is leading us to believe that MX Player is planning on developing a game store with options of publishing later on.

With a large install base of 350 million users in India and 600 million users internationally it seems that MX Player is looking forward to maintain its progress and continue its growth.

In recent times late gaming seems to become more popular for these types of platforms and MX Player’s approach is different compared to Hotstar and Voot that are already streaming e-sports events. Hotstar is even planning to expand and get Twitch-like features in the future.

We recommend video games’ fans to take a look at Transition, the Devices 360’s gaming podcast. You can listen to it via RSS or Apple Podcasts.
