Carcassonne - 'Out of Memory' - Module 3.0.0 / 3.0.0.1

Hi All

I’m having an issue trying to get Carcassonne working on my system.

I have a circa 2013 Macbook Pro with 16gb Ram.

I’m running Catalina Version 10.15.3
Vassal Ver 3.2.17
Module Version: Tried 3.0.1 / 3.0.0

When I go to open the module with Vassal I get an error message saying ‘out of memory’.

I followed some older guides on the web and increased the JVM initial & max heap to 1024/4096

but keep getting the error, any help welcome? :slight_smile:

Please see error log https://pastebin.com/GLX5apcr

java =

java version "1.8.0_152"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_152-b16)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.152-b16, mixed mode)

I can see from the errorLog that you’re not running with 4096MB max heap:

2020-03-30 13:43:26,587 [0-SwingWorker-pool-1149439226-thread-2] INFO VASSAL.tools.io.ProcessLauncher - launching /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home/bin/java -Xms256M -Xmx512M -DVASSAL.id=3 -DVASSAL.port=62262 -Duser.home=/Users/james -Duser.dir=/Applications/VASSAL.app -cp Contents/Resources/Java/Vengine.jar -Xdock:name=Carcassonne + fan exps -Xdock:icon=/Applications/VASSAL.app/Contents/Resources/VASSAL.icns -Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=false VASSAL.launch.Player --load – /Users/james/Downloads/Carcassonne-3.0.0.vmod

The “-Xmx512M” is what sets the max heap to 512MB. Are you certain that
you’ve adjusted the max heap for the module? (The heap adjustments in
the Module Manager preferences are for the module importer, not for
particular modules.)
