Me and my friend are trying to play and he has downloaded sky factory 4.0 and can open launcher. It just gives him this error message.

 

Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx4096M

That error occurs under the circumstances of attempting to allocate 4gb of ram using a Java JRE 32bit version. Java 32bit cannot create the JVM. Download and install Java JRE 8 64bit to be able to play. I also recommend giving the launcher a little more ram, roughly 5-6gb should be fine, depending on how much ram you actually have.

 

Here is a Java JRE 8 64bit download: HERE

If you use Windows, make sure to get this one -> Windows Offline (64-bit)

 

Edit- Be sure to uninstall the 32bit Java version to avoid conflictions
