# System Requirements

#### To run Minecraft Earth Tiles, it is essential the minimum requirements are met. Most likely, you will be able to run the program with the Minimum Requirements, but if you want to make larger maps, the requirements increase. 

{% hint style="danger" %}
Computer OS: **64-bit Microsoft Windows 10/11**
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**CPU** is suggested to be newer than 2012, per minimum, with the best performance being newer than 2018.
{% endhint %}

| Minimum                               | Recommended                           | \*Suggested                           |
| ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| 8GB RAM DRR3/DDR4                     | 16GB+ DDR4 RAM                        | 24GB+ DRR4 RAM                        |
| 300GB Hard Disk\*                     | 512GB SSD/M.2                         | 1TB SSD/M.2                           |
| Active Internet Connection (5-10Mbps) | Active Internet Connection (5-10Mbps) | Active Internet Connection (5-10Mbps) |
| 2 Core CPU                            | 6 Core CPU                            | 8+ Core CPU                           |

{% hint style="success" %}
It is **highly suggested** to disable ***Sleep Mode and Updates*** on your computer!
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
***\*Hard Disk:** It is suggested to use an **SSD** (Solid State Drive) or **M.2** when creating the map, as the program is heavily disk dependent and your generation times will be drastically decreased. Although, these are usually a lot more expensive. Having around **\~500GB of Disk Space** should be enough to generate a 1:500 scale for example.* **You will need at minimum twice the storage of the final map output.** *These results were calculated with keep temporary files de-selected.* 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
***\*Suggested:*** When testing was done on large-scale maps, Earth Tiles was found to use more than 60GB of RAM during some map generation. Newer results saw a decrease and a max of 25GB used. However, your experience may vary.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://evanthebearge.gitbook.io/minecraft-earth-map/minecraft-earth-tiles/system-requirements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
