When trying to connect to Orc's World, you may encounter a variety of issues that can prevent you from logging in or accessing the server. Here are some of the most common Minecraft client errors, along with detailed solutions to help you fix them and get back into the game.
1. Not Authenticated with Minecraft.net
What it means:
This error usually occurs when your Minecraft client is not able to authenticate your account with the official Minecraft servers. This is a common issue for players who use cracked or offline clients.
Possible Causes:
- Using a cracked or offline client (such as TLauncher).
- Not owning an official copy of Minecraft or a Minecraft account.
How to fix it:
- Restart your client: The simplest and quickest solution is to restart your Minecraft client. This can help refresh the connection to the Minecraft authentication servers.
- Ensure you own a legitimate copy: If you're using a cracked or offline client, this error will appear because cracked clients cannot authenticate with Minecraft's official servers. To resolve this, you need to purchase an official copy of the game from the Minecraft website or Minecraft.net.
- Using a legitimate account: If you are using an official copy of Minecraft, but the error persists after restarting, you may want to try logging out and logging back into your Minecraft account. If this does not resolve the issue, it may be worth contacting Minecraft support for further assistance.

If none of the above solutions work and you're still facing this issue with a legitimate account, you can contact Minecraft's support team by visiting their support page.
2. Invalid Session (Try Restarting Your Game)
What it means:
The "Invalid Session" error indicates that your Minecraft client is unable to properly authenticate your session with the Minecraft servers, often due to a problem with your login token or session data.
Possible Causes:
- The session token has expired or become corrupted.
- Issues with the Minecraft authentication servers.
- Server maintenance or downtime.
How to fix it:
- Restart the game: A quick and easy way to resolve the Invalid Session error is by restarting your Minecraft client. This will generate a new session token and re-authenticate your account with the servers, allowing you to reconnect to multiplayer services.
- Log out and log back in: If restarting the client doesn’t work, try logging out of your Minecraft account from the main menu and logging back in. This can refresh your session and correct any authentication problems.
- Check for server maintenance: Sometimes, the Invalid Session error may appear if Minecraft's authentication servers are down for maintenance. If this is the case, you will likely see an additional error message saying, "Authentication servers are under maintenance." In such instances, all you can do is wait until the maintenance is completed.
3. Out of Memory / Not Enough Memory
What it means:
This error occurs when your device doesn't have enough available memory (RAM) to run Minecraft properly. Minecraft is a resource-intensive game, and it can require a lot of memory, especially when using large mods or playing on high-performance settings.
Possible Causes:
- Running low on RAM or system resources.
- Too many applications running in the background while playing Minecraft.
- Insufficient RAM allocated to Minecraft.
How to fix it:
- Close unnecessary applications: If you have multiple programs running in the background while playing Minecraft, these can take up valuable memory. Close any unused programs to free up memory for Minecraft to run more smoothly.
- Allocate more RAM to Minecraft: If you’re using the Minecraft Launcher, you can adjust the amount of RAM allocated to Minecraft. In the Minecraft Launcher, go to “Settings” and find the “More Options” section. Here, you can change the maximum amount of RAM that Minecraft can use. Allocating more RAM can help the game run more efficiently.
- Upgrade your system’s RAM: If you find that your device often runs out of memory while playing Minecraft, it might be time to upgrade your computer’s physical RAM. This requires purchasing additional RAM sticks compatible with your system and installing them into your PC. This is a more permanent solution to ensure that your device has enough resources to run Minecraft and other programs smoothly.
4. Authenticate with Microsoft Services
What it means:
This error occurs when your Minecraft client is not able to authenticate with Microsoft’s services. As of recent updates, Minecraft requires authentication via Microsoft accounts, and if your game is not up to date, you may encounter issues when trying to log in.
Possible Causes:
- You’re using an outdated version of Minecraft.
- Your Minecraft game has not been properly updated.
- Issues with the Microsoft account or authentication system.
How to fix it:
- Update Minecraft to the latest version: The most common reason for this error is that you are not running the latest version of Minecraft. Make sure that your game is up to date to ensure compatibility with Microsoft’s authentication servers. You can check for updates through the Minecraft Launcher or the Microsoft Store (if you’re using the Windows 10 version).
- Check your Microsoft account: If your game is updated and you're still encountering this error, ensure that you are logged into your Microsoft account correctly. Verify that your account credentials are correct and that there are no issues with your Microsoft account.
- Reauthenticate with Microsoft services: Try signing out of your Microsoft account in the Minecraft Launcher and signing back in. This can help resolve any issues related to authentication with Microsoft’s servers.
5. Other Common Errors
- Connection Timed Out: This error can happen when there’s a problem with the network connection between your Minecraft client and the server. Ensure you have a stable internet connection and try restarting your router or reconnecting to a different network if needed.
- Crash or Black Screen: If your game crashes or the screen turns black, this may be due to a corrupt installation or conflicting software. Try reinstalling Minecraft or updating your graphics drivers to resolve any conflicts.
- Mods Causing Issues: If you’re using mods and encounter errors, try removing them to see if the game runs without issues. Some mods can be incompatible with certain versions of Minecraft or with each other.
By following the steps above, you should be able to resolve most common Minecraft client issues and get back to enjoying your time on Orc’s World. If the problems persist despite following these solutions, it’s always a good idea to consult Minecraft’s official support or the community forums for additional assistance.
