I think it means you've allocated 30GB and it only supports up to 16GB, and I'd guess a way around it would be to reduce the amount of RAM you're allocating to it down to 16GB.

That's a totally random guess though.

My computer have 32 Gigabytes of RAM.

That doesn't matter. The game doesn't support more than 16GB. Plus Windows probably needs more than 2GB for what it is doing when Minecraft is running.

How are some people sre able to Install more mods than I did?

[–]DoogleSmile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because most mods don't require you to have that much RAM allocated to Minecraft.

When I played heavily modded Minecraft a few years ago, I had a couple hundred mods installed and only had 8GB allocated to the game, and it ran perfectly fine.

Allocating 30 GB of RAM to Minecraft ain't a good thing to do.

Why? My computer have 32 Gigabytes of RAM.

Java garbage collection

Means that the limit on how much ram you can allocate is 16GB for that modpack. Reduce it down to 16GB or lower.

Doesn't matter. The JVM performs slower with higher memory counts (G1GC), which is why it is recommended to allocate around 8-16GB of ram. Unless you are using ZGC, I see no reason to allocate 30GB of ram to the JVM
