I'm having a problem with my Feed the Beast SSP.
When I start to play it my game freezes then I am redirected to a screen that says Minecraft needs more memory but I don't know how to add more memory.
Could anyone help me?

I'm not certain if this will work but 1. Open notepad 2. Copy and paste this exactly

java -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -jar FTB_Launcher.jar nogui.

3. Save it onto your desktop as Start.bat
4. Run it
Hope this helps.

Wait, is this suppose to stop the redirections because when I started to play again it did the same thing

Well the launcher has memory options in the 'Options' tab.

I suppose the biggests question noone asked is, how much memory do you have? and if it's over 2gig are you using 64 bit java?

And to add on, do you have 64-bit Windows?

I kinda thought that would be a given, unless it's a pre-built. Some douche bag shops will try to pull that kind of thing if you don't know any better. Anyone who built thier own PC we should assume they know what the hell they are doing, right? :S

I don't have 64 bit java
And how do I check my memory, hence my name, I'm new at this

Or....
You could just put the -Xms512m -Xmx1024m in to the JAVA settings option in the FTB launcher..

'This' isn't very descriptive... I shall assume you mean everything then Right click on My Computer and go to properties, from there check your Installed memory (RAM): and System type:

Okay purplefantum, I think we can assume that he did not build his computer.

You can check your memory (assuming you have Windows 7/8) by clicking on Computer in the start menu, then in the info panel and the bottom it should say Memory: xxxGB

Edit: Ninja'd

My installed memory is 4.00 Gb and I installed 64 bit but Minecraft still runs out of memory

 

[purplefantum]

Did you go to options on the FTB launcher and set the RAM Maximum up? I recommend 2 GB

 

[I'm New to This]

I can't get 2 GB on my options I've tried

 

[purplefantum]

It's a slider, so does it just not go that high? or does it keep resetting? Sounds like that's your problem, but we kinda need more info, screenshot maybe of the ftb option screen. It is so much easier to help with these things in person tbh ALso you said 64 bit, is that your windows or java?

If you need the Java try this link: http://download.cnet.com/Java-Runtime-Environment-JRE-64-Bit/3000-2378_4-75317067.html
