CRASHING FIX

[soxrok2212]

I found out how to fix the crashing modpacks (updates failing). When you start up the launcher, go to the settings icon, then allocate 1-2 GB of ram and check PermGen Size. Restart your launcher and the problem should be fixed! Enjoy!

Edit- I have checked Windows 7 64-bit but I am not getting any launching or updating errors. As of now, this fix is only for Mac OS X. This fix was applied on 10.8.3 with Java 7 Update 17. Thanks!

Leave a comment if it worked for you!

Well my problem wasn't related to ram but it fixed it and hey, I'm just trying to help people out... no need to criticize. Plus I'm new to the forums so I didn't know that I had posted the fix as a bug report. Sorry.

sox, thank you so much. You are the only person on this forum (that I could find) that has helped me with this problem. If you dont mind, I will send your strategy (to fix the launcher) to other people that have the same problem.

OMG. I just spent 2-3 hours (just now) and a lot more time before now trying to figure it out. I cant believe it was that simple... THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Sigh

Is there a thread for common bug fixes and solutions? I would like to make one.
