Minecraft Forums

Recently, every time I launch the game, the RAM used starts at around 88-91%. Shortly after, the game usually crashes. I've downloaded the latest Java version (8) AND Java 7 update 60/ 79/ 80. Nothing worked. I've also tried to allocate 2 gigs into Minecraft. What's happening?

Don't have other programs open

Do play on fast, turn off clouds, and use advanced OpenGL

Don't use bigger texture packs

Do make sure you you have only one version of Java

Do use the appropriate Java bit version

Do defrag your hard drive

Do give more/less memory

Do update LWJGL

Do update Java

----------------------------------------------------

Possibly play offline

Possibly change the size of the screen

Possibly set priority to high

Possibly set windows to best performance

Possibly update graphics driver

Don't have other programs open- I do not have any programs open except Minecraft

Do play on fast, turn off clouds, and use advanced OpenGL- I use all of these

Don't use bigger texture packs- I use 64x/ 128x texture pack all the time. It's only been acting up recently

Do make sure you you have only one version of Java- Yes

Do use the appropriate Java bit version- I have Mac, so 64bit

Do defrag your hard drive- I'll do this

Do give more/less memory- I allocate 2 gigs.

Do update LWJGL- No idea how to do this.

Do update Java- done.

Thank you for replying.

And do update that horrendously outdated optifine.

Glad I could help!

That optifine fits with the shaders mod, or else it crashes.

Show me the crash report in a spoiler.
