Out of memory fix Tutorial

This tutorial will show you how you can fix the Minecraft Out of memory error.

If you received the following message then you are at the right place to fix it.

Out of memory!

Minecraft has run out of memory.

This could be caused by a bug in the game or by the Java Virtual Machine not being allocated enough memory. if you are playing in a web browser, try downloading the game and playing it offline.

To Prevent level corruption, the current games has quit.

Please restart the game.

The simplest solution is to go to Control Panel > Java > Java Tab > View > in Runtime Parameters add -Xmx800m {you can also do -Xmx300m (300MB) and -Xmx1g (1GB) etc.} > OK > OK > close control panel and run Minecraft.

If you don't wish to change the memory allocation for all Java programs follow the steps below:


Download Minecraft.jar file and place it anywhere you wish.
http://www.minecraft.net/download/minecraft.jar?v=1313864384895
or download it from http://www.minecraft.net it is under the Linux / Other section


Create a new windows shortcut to run minecraft or just copy and paste this "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame with the quotations in run to execute Minecraft and you can skip the following steps.


Set "Target" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame

Set "Start in" to be where the .jar file is. Example "C:\Minecraft"

Optional to set "Run" to Minimized

Optianal to "Change Icon" then browse and select minecraft.exe icon.
Optianal to increase memory usage for Minecraft change the first -Xms parameter to something higher.

You can also run minecraft in 64-bit with the above shortcut trick read about it here

Server Updated to 1.1

Its that time again, almost two weeks after the official release of Minecraft 1.1, we are finally (?) up to date.
I guess the biggest problem with this have been that many of our members have not been able to reach our server, not the few changes they made to the game.

We are using the latest recommended build (1818) from the Bukkit team and it looks good so far.
Let us know about any problems you notice, things not working and such.

Thanks. (with the next update I expect the void fog to be an option in the server properties file, disabling it in creative-mode only has to be the second most retarded decision made, right after introducing it in the first place. )

Minecraft Downgrade Link Issue

The Minecraft Downgrade link for 1.0.1 is fixed now, we just found out it was wrong link, sorry for the inconvenience, you can now download the correct minecraft.jar version 1.0.1 here in order to play on our downgraded server, or download from our minecraft downgrade tutorial page.

We will be updating to Minecraft version 1.1 soon work is in progress.

Minecart Mania Control Blocks

Minecart Mania Control Blocks

Note: This only works if the Minecart Mania plug-in is installed on the server of course. most of the control blocks are changed as required and are no longer the default control blocks.

Some basic things and the control blocks:

Booster block (Powered Rails)

to increase the speed of passing Minecarts.

Brake block (Unpowered Powered Rails)

to decrease the speed of passing Minecarts.

Reverse block (White Wool)

to reverse the direction of any Minecart that passes over it.

Ejector block (Iron Block)

to automatically eject the player/mob from the Minecart.

Platform block (Light Green Wool)

to grab nearby players and put them inside of any empty, passing minecart.

Catcher block (Unpowered Obsidian)

to stop a moving Minecart instantly.

Launcher block (Powered Obsidian)

to launch a stationary Minecart.

Spawn block (Brick Block)

to create a new Minecart on the trail above it when activated. it spawns only standard Minecarts, use Minecart Spawner Sign to change what types of Minecarts will be spawned.

Kill block (Soul Sand)

to remove a Minecart from the rail that passes over it.

Station block (Netherrack)

are a special case of Control Blocks. In general, they alone don't do anything, and instead work with Intersection Stations.

Elevator block (Red Wool)

to teleport a minecart that arrives at one end of the elevator block to the next elevator block on the same Y axis level.
