Back of the Box
Minecraft is a sandbox game which allows players to build constructions out of textured cubes in a 3D world. It is currently in development by Markus Persson, aka "Notch". The gameplay is inspired by Dwarf Fortress, RollerCoaster Tycoon, Dungeon Keeper, and especially Infiniminer. The game has two variants, Alpha and Classic, both with single- and multiplayer options. Classic includes only the building aspects of the game with unlimited blocks, while Alpha includes monsters and a much greater variety of crafting available, as well as requiring players to mine their own blocks. Alpha is currently the latest release of Minecraft, and plans to move into beta sometime in September 2010. Minecraft was developed for about a week before its public release on May 16, 2009 on the TIGSource forums, where it gained a considerable level of popularity. It has been continually updated since then.

Update your Java Or allocate 5gb of ram to your java and turn your settings to all low especially Render set that to tiny and you will get about 100-200 Fps

I have tried allocation of memory and it doesnt want to work, i think it is to do with windows 8
auntarie
10:00 May-21-2013

You need to have 64-bit java for the memory allocation to work. Otherwise you'll always only be using 1.5 gigs of RAM. You can get 64-bit Java here.

As i said my system in the info says 64-bit but it works like 32.
auntarie
10:09 May-21-2013

Not your OS, your Java. You can have 32-bit Java on a 64-bit OS and that's how most PCs are because the Java update that windows links you to is 32-bit.

No it wont let me run the 64-bit java on my "64-bit" system i will try again now that java has a newer update
Should i uninstall 32-bit java though?
emilsz
10:19 May-21-2013

of course.
auntarie
10:19 May-21-2013

In my case, I didn't have to. Just install the new one and restart your PC. The indication of a successful job will be that you will be able to select more than 1.5 GB for memory allocation from the launcher and then start the game. Otherwise a message will pop up telling you that you only have 32-bit Java. In that case, uninstall any Java from your machine and install the 64-bit.

Okay it doesnt want to work so i am just going to get a 1600mhz set of ram and see if that helps also later ill get a hybrid drive and see if that also helps as i noticed my drive usage was rather high also, i think it may have to do with the interesting origins of my mc as to why it wont work.

i dont think ram is the problem. 1333 and 1600 are no different pretty much. what is your resolution? iGPUs cannot cope with big resolutions

Yeah, RAM wouldn't make a difference if the game doesn't allow it to be used.

the fact that it doesnt use ram or full power of igpu means that you have a problem in the installation overall, or it is a problem with windows 8 : /

You can max it out with 60+ fps :D

22:02 May-20-2013

And that's if you enable Vsync. Otherwise you'll be getting well over 100 fps.

The pc i am currently on is:
win xp, 1280x1024, 2gb ram 667mhz, ati hd2400pro, intel pentium dual core @ 1,8 ghz
and i run it at normal render distance with smooth lightning off at 25 fps with some occasional lag spikes. its decent, but i installed optifine for 35 fps and less lag :)

You mean that minecraft normall does not use a gfx? or do you mean if i have tried with hd7870xt?
also, java normal priority. i hava java 6, but they say java 7 is better.
there are not exactly "low" or "high" graphics in minecraft, but there are a number of settings that affect graphics quality. i mean that, unlike other games, you wont see "set graphics to low or medium or high", but you have: graphics: fancy or fast, smooth lighting: on, min, full and render distance, which uses lots of system resources. you ll see it, tweak it, and find what is best for you :-)

I was looking at ways to make minecraft run faster and one of the most helpful tips was to go under minecraft properties (or something.. sorry for bad wording) and enable it to use your graphics card.. haha. But i think im going to be building a computer or buying one off of craigslist now.. Way better deals. thanks for you help though :D

online relies much on the server and your internet speed, but of course your hardware is first priority.
i think medium render distance with smooth lightning off is better.

For reference, my pc runs 50fps on far and max settings. With optifine installed, I get 30 fps on extreme render! :D

www.minecraft.net is the only place (legally) I believe.
And you do realize it costs about 27 bucks, right?
