    Westrend, our Alice 1.7 world, has launched!

    Since we didn't tell anyone for the past month that this was coming, be sure to tell all your friends!

    To play on Alice 1.7, connect with the familiar addresses:
    • alice.sk89q.com
    • alice.skcraft.com
    Use the "Alice 1.7" profile in the launcher. As this is a whitelisted server, be sure to first apply if you aren't yet a member: http://apply.skcraft.com/apply

    Release notes:
    • If you are crashing on launch or join:
      • If the error log shows "ConcurrentModificationException" and you are using a recent version of Java 8, install an older version of Java 8 or a version of Java 7. In the launcher's options, set the Java path to this older version.
      • In the launcher's options, set PermGen to 256 from 128.
      • Increase max memory in launcher options if you have available RAM.
    • If you are having extremely low frame rate (FPS):
      • Make sure that you did NOT choose to install JourneyMap.
      • Disable VSync.
      • Disable the texture pack.
      • Lower "Render Distance" under Video settings.

    I've been busy.

    Also, most of this spawn was built by everyone else so it was done sort of in the background. I didn't have time to do much of spawn this time around.

    How far?

    Make sure you are not using an up to date version of Java 8.

    Use Java 7 or an older version of Java 8 (I think update 10 works).

    Can confirm. I am crashing on launch with 7u67.

    Edit: Replaced it with 7u65 and all runs well.

    Could you send a download link for java 8u10? I've tried both 7u67 and 8u20 and I get similar logs as dhdzeke.

    (Also tried force update and hard force update)

    Scrap that, I unistalled every single java I had (7u67 32 bit, 64 bit and 8u20 64 bit) and reinstalled 7u67 64 bit, now it seems to work.
