Minecraft Forums

I have been running my max memory from 40-100 percent with my memory usage staying below the max memory allocated. This has granted a lag-free experience that has enabled me to average 80 FPS on a normal world with max settings and an average of 40-50 on big servers like Mineplex and the Hive. I was building a ship for a server using the server texture pack in a flatland world using worldedit in the liteloader modloader for 1.7.2. To also have the texture pack, I used mcpatcher on the liteloader profile. Ever since then, my minecraft has been stuck at 63% percent allocated memory, and the memory usage has been floating around 20%. This has cause EXTREME lag even at minimum settings of 2 render distance, fast graphics and no smooth lighting. Did the combination of mcpatcher and liteloader cause this? are the two unrelated? I really need help here...

Texture packs (now known as resource packs) increase the amount of memory used by Minecraft, especially if the resource pack's resolution is bigger than 32 x 32.

What is your resource pack's resolution?

it is 64X64. I have used the texture pack in the past with only minor lag effects.

It is highly doubtful that Liteloader is the source of the problem, what features did you enable when you used MC Patcher?

All of them. I think I actually found the problem; I got skype recently and I noticed that when I completely closed it the minecraft was able to allocate the memory it needed. problem solved I guess; I'm back to my previous status of 40-70 fps. I guess I should close skype more often. Thanks for the help!
