Can't use 512x after switch to resource pack

trainman0927 · Post 13 Jul 2013, 04:01

For some reason since the switch to resource packs I can't use the 512x version of sphax and I can't find any solutions. 256x work just fine. I read in an earlier topic that the problem could be not enough RAM so I allocated 16gb and it still doesn't work. If anyone knows a fix I would be very thankful.

Are you sure Java is actually using the 16GB though?

I can load up vanilla Minecraft with the 512x textures by allocating just 4GB and it only uses about 2.5GB.

I am quite sure. When I checked in-game it says 16GB is allocated. Plus it doesn't need near that much, but I gave it a try. I usually only allocate 6GB.

8GB is enough for 512x... Be sure to use Optifine or MCPatcher also.
If that still doesn't work, try patching without CTM

I didn't get an error, but instead Minecraft by default reverted to the default texture pack when I tried switching to 512x.

I agree with Cocoa_Pod. the same thing happens to me I can use 128x128 texture pack but cant use 256x256. If i click it it takes me back to the default texture pack. I have 3gb's allocated to my minecraft. Is that enought?

3GB is enough for 128x but nit for 256x or 512x...

Minecraft is heavier than before... And not that well optimized. That's why Optifine and McPatcher are still useful
