TheYafe Posted July 29, 2018 Posted July 29, 2018 I'm playing with friend at server with 10 mods and all the time the server is very stuck and crashing. Its shows me at the control panel that i using 200mb 50% of my ram. I have a I7-7700k 16gb So how i can to add more ram to the server? 1
PulseBeat_02 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 I am assuming you play on Windows since you siad i7-7700k. The type of computer is not what matters, it is the RAM. Don't you have a bat file that makes you run the server? Don't always just click on jar file to start the server. If you don't have a bat file, make one. To do this go to your text editor and make a new file. Inside that new file, write "java -Xmx [Most RAM Wanted] -Xms [Least RAM Wanted] -jar [Name for the jar of your minecraft server] .jar nogui". Fill in the brackets and paste it into your text editor. (Make sure to delete quotations!) The most RAM wanted is the maximum RAM you want to allocate to your server. The Least RAM Wanted is the least amount of RAM you want to allocate to your server. In my opinion, I suggest you to use 4GB for the most RAM wanted and 1GB for the least RAM wanted. The command for this would be: java -Xmx4G -Xms1G -jar [Name for the jar of your minecraft server] .jar nogui If it keeps crashing, keep adding more RAM but don't add more then 8GB. Hope this helps!

PulseBeat_02 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) I forgot to mention that the text file can't be just named "Start.bat". You must go into the text editor, press save as, and there, you enter .bat as the file name. Windows may give you a warning, but just press ok. Once you made the bat file, the icon should look like two gears. To run your server, just click on it. It will open a command prompt, showing the server console. Keep in mind a modded server is the same as a vanilla server basically, but with mods. Search up a tutorial about making a server. The person should show you how to make the bat file.

Expand Where did you hear this, @PulseBeat_02? I think your issue there is Windows is set to hide known file extensions by default, so the file is actually Start.bat.txt but you only see the start.bat portion, in your file explorer window go to the view tab and check the file name extensions box. Once this has been done you can run the bat file in CMD by typing its name or by simply double clicking on it, also I highly recommend adding pause to a new line the end of your Start.bat, this will make sure the window doesn't auto-close after your server closes, making sure you don't miss any console output.

PulseBeat_02 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) @DaemonUmbra Sorry, I was a bit confusing. What I meant is that you must change the file extension to .bat, not the actual file name. Just as what DaemonUmbra said, the problem here is that the file is Start.bat.txt not actually Start.bat Edited July 30, 2018 by PulseBeat_02
