[3] If the game does not progress after pressing the DOAXVV launcher’s “Start Game” button

After pressing the DOAXVV launcher’s “Start Game” button, the installation file is downloaded.

1. Go into Windows Explorer and right click on the HDD to be used, then select Properties
2. Select the Tools tab
3. Press the “Check” button to perform the error check
4. Click on the area where “Drive scan” is displayed

■ Regarding DOAXVV startup issues

[1] If the game shuts down while playing

1. If the game shuts down during a Gacha event, Gacha results will still be applied.
Even if the game shuts down for some reason from the time between the start of the Gacha event to its results being displayed, the Gacha results will already be applied on the server, which can be confirmed by relaunching DOAXVV.
* When this issue occurs, movies played during the Gacha event will not play again when relaunching the game.

2. If the game shuts down during a beach volleyball sequence, it will be handled as if “SKIP ALL” was selected.
If the game shuts down for some reason during a beach volleyball sequence, the situation will be handled as if “SKIP ALL” was selected, which skips through all the matches.

[2] If game doesn’t advance past the Loading Screen

* Loading Screen generally refers to the following:
・The screen shown after selecting a festival, just before a match starts
・The screen shown just before a girl finishes changing her private outfit
・The screen shown just before a memory plays
・The screen shown right before and right after a Gacha event plays
・A screen other than those above featuring a jumping animation of Honoka
・A screen other than those above featuring a rotating volleyball icon

1. An unforeseen error may have occurred during communication
Exit DOAXVV and restart the game from Steam.

2. The server may be under maintenance, or a malfunction may have occurred.
Please check the following resources and wait for recovery if applicable
・DOAXVV maintenance/malfunction information
・DOAXVV official Twitter
・Steam maintenance/malfunction information

3. Issues caused by high volumes of server traffic
We ask that you wait a moment and then relaunch the game.

4. If the methods above do not solve the issue, it is most likely an issue that occurred during installation, so first uninstall DOAXVV from Steam, then relaunch DOAXVV and check the results.
* Note that save data in progress will not be affected by uninstalling the game.
After reinstalling, you will be able to start from where you left off.

5. If none of these measures solve the problem, please get in touch through our “Contact Us” page.

[3] If an error occurs at the title screen and the game will not start

1. An unforeseen error may have occurred during communication.
