Why would I want to do this?:
Typically your computer will allocate 256mb memory (RAM) to a java application (the .jar file you execute to load the client). Some computers will bottleneck under a certain environment in-game, for example a place where a lot of objects are loaded (home areas or grand exchange on OSRS) e.g players ect. This will drop the frame rate of your client usually, and could potentially cause a client to freeze. Allocating more memory provides somewhat of a safety net against freezes & lag so long as you have sufficient space/memory to do so.
Windows Guide:
Step 1: Create a notepad file, right click your desktop or search notepad on the start menu.
Step 2: Copy & paste the following:
java -jar TheNameOfYourJarFile.jar -Xmx512m -Xss2m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:+UseAdaptiveGCBoundary -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=500 -XX:SurvivorRatio=16 -XX:+UseParallelGC
Step 3: Save this file as a 512mb or something which references this and make sure its a .txt file (normal text document format). This will save a code which allocates double the standard amount of ram to your application.
Step 4: Re-do the steps 1,2 & 3 but with the following code:
java -jar TheNameOfYourJarFile.jar -Xmx1024m -Xss2m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:+UseAdaptiveGCBoundary -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=500 -XX:SurvivorRatio=16 -XX:+UseParallelGC
Step 5: Once this is saved, place both in a folder where you can easily access them, it doesn't matter where, I recommend your desktop inside a folder called RSPS.
Step 6: Open 'File Explorer' and locate 'Desktop' on the left hand side. At the top will be your directory, it will be a rectangle bar with the following information inside; 'This PC > Desktop >' or something of similar sorts, next to desktop, click the white space inside of this bar, it will highlight the word 'Desktop', press the 'Delete' button on your keyboard & type 'cmd'. This will open your command prompt (terminal if on Mac OS) and will open it inside of the Desktop directory.
Step 7: Once you have cmd open, copy & paste either the 512mb or 1024mb codes from your files saved earlier OR copy them directly from this thread into the cmd. Press 'Enter' on your keyboard and the .jar file will run, make sure you are careful because the file name inside of the code we paste into cmd is CaSe SenSitIve, it will not be able to locate the file otherwise.
Mac OS Guide:
Step 1: Create a TextEdit file, this can be found in your dock or by holding '⌘ + Spacebar' to open spotlight search and type 'TextEdit' then hit enter.
Step 2: Copy & paste the following for a 512/1024mb version of the code:
#!/bin/sh
java -Xmx1024m -jar /Users/yourusername/Desktop/TheNameOfYourJarFile.jar
//To make a 512mb version of this code, just edit the '-Xmx1024m' to '-Xmx512m' instead.
Step 3: Open terminal by searching for it on the spotlight, how to access spotlight can be found above. Type 'Terminal' and press enter on your keyboard (return in some languages). Copy & paste the text above into your terminal.
Step 4: Press enter & this should execute the command to run the file, it is now being ran with more allocated memory & you may close the terminal widow. *You may recieve an 'access denied' error when trying to do this, to get around this you will need to type 'Sudo' into the terminal before C&P your code above and it will then prompt you for your users password before it loads the .jar file up.
Happy Scaping, I hope this helps some of you! ?
