[SOLVED] GC 1.11.12 unplayable with 1G of memory
- Thread starter mesagsar
- Start date
Please give much more detail:
Anything you can do yourself to fix this? For example:
If it's only in Asteroids, this may be the same issue as reported here.
- which Galacticraft build?
- single player or on a server?
- anything in logs?
- which dimension
- what is happening when the performance drops (eg. building, fighting, rocket launch, just walking around?)
- show us an F3 screenshot when the problem is happening
Anything you can do yourself to fix this? For example:
- change the view distance to something smaller
- launch Minecraft with more memory for the JVM
- add a performance mod, for example FoamFix
If it's only in Asteroids, this may be the same issue as reported here.
GalacticraftCore-1.11.2-4.0.0.107
Galacticraft-Planets-1.11.2-4.0.0.107
MicdoodleCore-1.11.2-4.0.0.107
Singleplayer
Nothing of note in logs
Earth, new world havent even started mining for ores yet
Mining any block, being near lava, moving too far from spawn
It does get better when I lower the draw distance, but a system like mine really shouldn't need that.

The F3 screen shows the problem here. You haven't given Minecraft enough memory for playing with mods, especially a large mod like Galacticraft. 1000MB is not enough on a 64-bit PC like yours!! You can see at top-right the Java is already at 99% of available memory even just standing still. That's not going to work. The lag is being caused by the Java "garbage collector" desperately running all the time, trying to free up slightly more memory.
To fix this, in the Minecraft launcher, change your JVM settings to give Minecraft more memory. -Xmx2G should be enough for Galacticraft. If you want to add more mods in future, you might want to push that up to a higher number. This is documented on our installation guide.
For an alternative solution you can also try downloading a mod named FoamFix, it works really well to reduce Minecraft's memory requirements.

Most Galacticraft items should give you some info in game, if you press SHIFT (or your other sneak key) while your mouse is over the item.
