Minecraft very low FPS

[r1Ns3]

Hey all, I know this is annoying and hard to fix but I just wanted to play some minecraft with shaders.

 

I launched the game and it loaded as usual with optifine and shaders 1.8.9  and I hopped into a new singleplayer world.

 

I had my render distance at 16 and shaders off to begin with and was getting like 0-1 fps and ridiculous choppiness to the point I couldn't even move my mouse.

 

My system is more than adequate to run this, (pretty sure) (specs in spoiler)

Any help would be appreciated. And yes, I updated Java and Geforce drivers.

How much RAM are you allocating?

[r1Ns3]

How much RAM are you allocating?

Is there a way to change it? I never touched the ram allocation.

 

I can afford like 8-10 GB for it if that is enough

[Demiqas]

What is your GPU usage and CPU usage at? Did you try any other versions?

 

Press F3 and in the upper right corner you can see the amount of ram allocated, if you need to see whether that's the problem

100% sure this is it. Look up how to allocate more, for your use, you'll need AT LEAST 4 GB allocated. reply or tag me if you need more help.

CPU and GPU both pinned at 60° with 30-40% usage.

 

I ran minecraft on 1.8.9 VANILLA and it ran perfectly smooth!

 

this means something is up with the mod. Will check ram allocation now.

What about anti virus?

Max 3.5

Do you have Optifine downloaded? It truly helps a lot, also turn Fancy graphics off.

[DarkBlade2117]

At least? More like a max of 4 allocated, for vanilla and shaders I'll go check my usage right now

[r1Ns3]

Max 3.5

Why should I turn anything down? have you seen my PC specs?

 

Anyway I am allocating 7 Gb's of RAM now testing this.

Thanks mate, I allocated 7Gigs now running at a smooth 300 FPS

 

lmao

 

thanks alot guys

No please don't allocate 7. It has been proven that it will actually decrease performance.

For Vanilla minecraft a MAX I mean MAX of 3GBs of needed. I usually sit at around half a gig of usage though sometimes go up to 1. 3 is just in case. Also minecraft runs of ONE core, downloading optifine will split it between TWO cores. Another reason to turn down settings is Java is absolutely  shit.  Fast graphics will improve performance a fair bit, also render distance should not go above 16.

 

As I justt seen your post, you are allocated about 3-4 useless GBs of RAM to MC. It is un-needed and your RAM usage will never exceed 1.5GBs in vanilla, this is with a 512x TexturePAck and Seus ULTRA Shaders

Ok, I will try allocating different amounts of ram and finding out which one works

 

At least now I can play the game hahaha

 

and also, does minecraft REALLY only run off 2 cpu cores?

 

That is so stupid! I expected this game to be super CPU bound. Lol, shit programming much

[TomvanWijnen]

For normal minecraft without amy mods, I could sometimes get up to like 3.5GB usage. With world edit, this number coukd more than double.

lmao

 

thanks alot guys

I have only 3gb of ram allocated. I can run MC at 60 fps with max settings, ultra SEUS shaders (Most demanding shaders out there), and 512x512 textures.

I'm not sure where you got all this crap from, but let's argue

My minecraft usually sits at like 2.X GB used. Sometimes it even goes up to 3.5 GB or so, tmand that is without any mods. You're compuser uses less, because it doesn't have as mich horses as ours.

Also, minecraft uses 2 cores, not one.

Just wondering, how much RAM does irt actually use?

And I forgot that some areas do take uo much less RAM than others, and that it greatly depends on your render disrance.

That's true though, Minecraft is very poorly coded.

(sorry for the multiple posts, postjng on your phone, at night, with a super low brightness doesn't help )

Where did I get this info from? Oh I don't playing minecraft since Beta 1.8. I have a 512x Resource Pack, SEUS Ultra shaders and from the different mob farms such as iron golem, squid, guardian farms, blowing up mountains. Let's see... I have never seen my MC go above 2GBs.

That might make sense, because both your CPU and GPU are much less prowerful than mine and the OPs, so I suppose you're also running at much lower settings (render distance? Mine is/should be at 16 )

[TomvanWijnen]

check this out

Yup, that can definitely happen I've actually had World edit take up 13.5+ GB... Even though I only allocated 12 GB... (it didn't end up working, but that's a different story lol)

Like I have stated, the only setting that I have low is graphics. I have them on Fast because I simply find them to look better. Other then that, render distance is 16, I can use a 512x resource pack though I use a 32x32 John Smith and SEUS Ultra Shaders. I've got 4 GBs dedicated. Ill get a picture here in a second

 

There, with the exact setting I just stated with around 150 entities, a bunch of flowing water and fire near me also.

Odd. Will post my usage when I get home.
