First,open up runescape so it's on the world select.You should see a Java Cup,right click that and go on open control panel.

In this new box there should be an empty space double click the empty space and put in -xmx*M *represents half of your ram eg -xmx400M

 

 

 

Happy Scaping

 

I will edit this and put in how to find your computer ram if i get that many complaints

Nice second post...

 

 

 

I wouldn't touch this. If RSHD lags, it might be several different things - hardware/software/internet etc...

 

Changing values in Java is just dumb, might need to change a setting or reinstall java... But changing values is not something i would ever recommend.

J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff movies

Je trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vie

Je ne me reconnais plus dans les gens

Je suis juste un cas désespérant

Et comme personne ne viendra me réclamer

Je terminerai comme un objet retrouvé

This is on RuneScape.com i saw it there along time ago. The problem is as joe said if you have crappy hardware or Internet or something else on your computer hogging your resources then it isn't going to do much. Not to say it doesn't take much to play RuneScape.

You're half right and half wrong.

 

 

 

To begin with, yes, it could very well be something totally unrelated to Java, including other software, hardware, broadband speed, etc., but it is perfectly safe (and sometimes necessary) to change the amount of memory you can allocate to Java. The only limit there is that you can't set it to more than half of your current available memory (e.g. no more than 512MB if you have 1GB of memory), and you wouldn't want to make your system potentially unstable if you reallocate, so I'd recommend no more than a fourth of your current memory (e.g. 256MB:1GB).

...Alright, the Elf City update lured me back to RS over a year ago.

Well, since i don't know a crap about Java and didn't know where this came from, it's the stance i take. My caution came from - i don't know anything about Java and it comes from someone who registred couple of days ago... Not something i'd trust. But as proven by you guys, is legit =)

Personally, I would recommend to a user that making 256 MB of RAM for a JRE would be an absolute maximum limit (If they have the room to even support that, anyone with less than 1GB of RAM should never allocate that much... Maybe 128-192 MB at max for them, if they have the room for that) in their settings, even if they have the room to support allocating more space to it... Any more than that should be a sign that the applet which a person is running inside of their browser is probably in need of serious cleanup. :|

 

 

 

watuphomi, I notice you are saying to use "-Xmx###M"... ("###", again, being a number.) ... TBH, I'd recommend "-Xmx######K" as it allows far finer control of RAM allocation and usage. Not to be overly nitpicky, but sometimes the equivalent of a needle-nose pair of pliers is better than the equivalent of a sledgehammer. :geek: ... Yes, I'll admit that sometimes simplicity is good, but there are times where being too simple can cause a bad situation. ;)
