In any given game, I've found that almost everyone with a mic is in a party with their friends. Those who are left are generally the ones who like to play loud music in the background, shout obscenities, or sing. Thus why everyone else is in a party.

You could try a site where you can set up a gaming session like trueachievements.com. I use it, pretty easy to find folks to play with. You can create a session for whenever you want and request that everyone have a mic, or join someone else's. Not much else I can suggest for the general public I'm afraid.

How exactly do you organze a match on there? do you just post in one of the forums or something? i've taken a quick look at the site and i can't seem to locate a section devoted to setting up MP matches.

Once you register and are logged in, go to the game you want to play and there should be a pane on the right side of the screen that says "Gaming Sessions". You can select one of those that fits your needs or at the bottom of that same pane there will be a link for making your own session. If you do, you can set it up to boost achievements or just for fun. Hope that helps!

Thanks! From what it looks like, it's mostly for getting achievements/boosting, but I'm gonna try to make my own non-boosting sessions.

I love playing BF3 on the 360. However, whenever I'm online, nobody seems to use their mics. I've tried just going into random lobbies and being like"yo does anyone have a mic? If so speak up" but nobody ever responds. All my friends are playing other games right now e.g. Skyrim. What I'm wondering is are there any services that could help match me up with people with mics in BF3? Im not looking for anything serious here e.g gamebattles, just somone who is online when I'm online and actually enjoys communicating with a nonsuckish teammate (I usually come in 1st or 2nd place in any given match).

Also my gamertag is halo2dmax.(Yes im aware of the irony...). Feel free to friend request me if you actually want to have some fun playing BF3!!!

I messed up, didn't notice.

javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m -jar "C:\Users\Caleb\Desktop\minecraft.exe"

It needed the complete path, location and file name for the application. It had an error because it had nothing to run.

Ok I tried doing what you said but I couldn't get it to do what I wanted. Furthermore now whenever I click on Minecraft it doesn't start up and says this error

"
A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (20.1-b02 mixed mode windows-x86 )

Any ideas?

Ok - right click anywhere on the desktop, new, text document, name it Minecraft.txt - open Minecraft.txt and paste this into it javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m -jar "C:\Users\Caleb\Desktop" - save it and rename Minecraft.txt into Minecraft.bat Now you need to always start Minecraft with Minecraft.bat instead of the Minecraft.exe (remember, if you ever move Minecraft.exe, you'll need to change "C:\Users\Caleb\Desktop" to the new location, otherwise it wouldn't work.DanielDust

I see where you're getting at. I did everything that you said and eventually I ended up with a file on my desktop that was a .bat (It has a picture of two blue gears on a white backgound). but when I open it, it has a "Java Virtual Machine Launcher error. Could not access jarfile" Any ideas?

Well so far its:

javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m -jar

""

Yes that's where Minecraft installs itself, but is the minecraft.exe (what you downloaded from minecraft.net and use to launch the game) also there? (I know some put the exe in that folder, but not everyone does)

DanielDust

Well I clicked on the icon on my desktop where I launch it from and I clicked on properties and all it said about location was "Location: C:UsersCalebDesktop". Also I typed that javaw xmx... thingy in my start menu search bar and it came up so I clicked on it, but it said "Error Could not create virtual machine. Hope this helps. Sorry for my noviceness:(

How much RAM do you have? (if you don't know, right click on computer or my computer and click properties, should be there) and where do you have Minecraft installed? in what folder on what drive/HDD.DanielDust

I have 2 GB of RAM. To answer your second question I'm not entirely sure, I just remember going to %appdata% and thats where the .minecraft folder is.

No, you need a 64 bit OS for 64 bit software. Do this: Create a "Minecraft.txt" (call it whatever you like), open, and paste this into it javaw -Xmx4096m -Xms3072m -jar "C:\Program Files\Minecraft\minecraft.exe" then rename the Minecraft.txt to Minecraft.bat, always run the game with it. That's mine tho, you can put what you like, if you have 2 gigs of RAM write something like javaw -Xmx2048m -Xms1024m etc, remember to change the path and don't forget to also include the " ".DanielDust

I have no clue how to do that...I'm a bit of a novice

I have a 32 bit opersting system and Vista (unlike the guy in the tutorial). Wil I still be able to do it?

When I'm playing Minecraft, I always experience really low FPS. Recently playing the latest version of MC I noticed that the game recommend that I have a "64 bit installation" but that I currently only had 32 bit. I have no clue what the difference is or how to get 64 bit. From what I've gathered I know I'll have to go to java.com to download something and thats all I know. Any guidance will be GREATLY appreciated!!!
