Can someone tell me what the procedure would be for permanently increasing the Java Heap Space in Windows or just increasing it for Forge just using Windows? I'm getting the impression that the trick I'm using for Forge isn't the way I'm supposed to do it.

I believe that Fnoed was right when he stated in message Re: Next beta, 2011 third release that a shortcut would not do the trick.

Have you explored the link in his message? It looks like the jsmooth-0.9.9-7 application can fairly easily and quickly build a launcher for windows which will increase the heap space used by java while loading the forge JAR.

I just use a batch file with the following command

"\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -jar run-forge.jar

You'll need to change it based on where java is installed, but otherwise it should be good.

I have created an updated launcher, available here. It is identical to the current one, except it has a 1G heap size.

With this launcher, does it matter where I have Forge located?

No, but the Forge jar must be named "forge.jar" and be in the same folder as the launcher.

OK, thanks
