I have been searching around the internet and I can't find anything that fits my issue. I have tried just using magic launcher so I can adjust the allocated ram there, but Mojang didn't publish just the Jar files for 1.6. So I tried doing it the more "robusk" way and do it with the Java Control Panel ->Java Tab->View and changing the runtime params to "-Xincgc -Xmx4096", and also creating a batch and cmd file with "javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m -jar "C:\Users\dv4\Desktop\Minecraft.exe" " in it's contents with no luck. Is it possible to do this with the new launcher. Thanks for the help!

Ok, here's a "For Dummies" version that I figured out today.
FOR WINDOWS OPERATING SYSTEMS ONLY!
You see, my computer only has 2 GB of RAM, which means when I open the .exe file at all, my Computer goes nuts. I have figured out I way to use the old method, but it's a bit different.
1. Download the Minecraft."Jar". (Under "Other Operating Systems" It will work on windows.)
2. Put it on your desktop.
3. Open Notepad
4. Paste the following:
5. Change the 512 to however much RAM you want allocated to the launcher, (In Megabytes) 350 is the BARE MINIMUM!
6. Open Save as, and change type to all Files.
7. Save the folder to the desktop as "Minecraft.bat"
8. Open it up, and enjoy! DO NOT: Close the command prompt that opens.
As you can see, Mojang has simply changed the name of the main class file and it's location a bit. "Launcher.LauncherFrame" is now "bootstrap.Bootstrap"
It's a very simple change, but it required me to go into the jar file itself to find it.
It WILL NOT work with the Minecraft.exe because of the different setup they made for windows OS.
Second. Click Edit profile.
Third. Go down to JVM Arguments.
There

Just as a reference, this is what you used to have to paste into notepad:
java -Xmx512M -cp Minecraft.exe net.minecraft.Launcher.LauncherFrame
pause
