When i try to open a ROM, the launcher is stuck on the loading screen for some reasons.

Here's the launcher-log :

Are you on Windows? Open a command prompt and do this: echo %_JAVA_OPTIONS%

And let me know what (if anything) shows up

-Xmx512M shows up

Yeah, you'll need to do the following then:

  1. Hit the start button, then type "Edit the system environment variables" and select the option that looks like this: image
  2. In the window that pops up, click on the "Environment Variables" button: image
  3. In either the user or system variables, you should find _JAVA_OPTIONS. You'll need to find and delete it. Just click on it and press "Delete".

What's happening here is that your system is overriding the requested amount of memory for the Java process. Once you delete the _JAVA_OPTIONS variable, the randomizer will be able to use up to 4 GB of memory, and randomization should succeed. I'll update the wiki to have this information as well.
