By default, Minecraft gives its clients 1GB of memory to work with. Pixelmon requires a bit more to work smoothly; 1500MB at minimum, with 3GB often being considered ideal. If you're experiencing a lot of lag or the game is not starting, try using this quick guide to change the allocation.
Minecraft launcher
Step | Example |
---|---|
Start the Minecraft launcher. | |
Click on "Launch options". | |
Click on "Advanced settings". | |
Click on your Pixelmon Forge profile. | |
Click on "JVM Arguments". | |
Replace "-Xmx1G" with a higher amount,
such as "-Xmx3G" (or "-Xmx3000M") |
|
Click "SAVE" to save your settings. |
Your allocation is now set, and the game is now ready! If you get stuck on any of these steps or you are having trouble finding the right amount to allocate, feel free to ask in the official Pixelmon Discord.
