JVM crashes opening Minecraft
I've been consistently getting a crash in (I think) the rendering engine on MacOS. This has been present through multiple releases (1.15.x, and maybe as early as 1.14.x). It happens with either a second or a main display, and happens with both the "beta launcher" as well as the non-beta launcher.

Hi, are you seeing this immediately when you launch the game from the launcher? Do you see the game window appear?
I usually see this during the Mojang loading screen (now red, with the progress bar). The screen swiches to full-screen, and then crashes during the mojang splash/loading screen. Sometimes almost immediately, sometimes around halfway through the progress bar, rarely towards the end of the progress bar.
My suspicion is that it's related to MacOS switching from the integrated (Intel) gpu, and the on-board, discreet (AMD) gpu. I don't see this issue much, if at all, when using my 4K external monitor (which causes MacOS to already be using the AMD gpu.
Any updates on this? I'm having the same exact problem in MacOS Catalina. My gut feeling is the same as Aaron's, probably related to GPU switching.
I've found a workaround, of sorts, but it's a manual (pita) process:
This switches the laptop to always run on the discrete graphics, which seems to stop the problem from happening. But, if you don't turn it back off when doing with Minecraft, you're going to have terrible battery life when not playing.
I seem to have the same problem as well, and Aaron's workaround does help. I am also running Catalina on a laptop.
Still seeing this with 1.16.4. And I've confirmed that this is an integrated->discreet graphics (a GPU change) happening too late in the loading of the game (the game itself, not the launcher).
I can work around the issue by any of:
Possible fixes would be for the launcher itself to load the big GPU, or for the packaged JVM to trigger the switch to the big GPU.
Hi – I believe this is the same issue as described in
MCL-11621. If you're still experiencing this problem, please add a comment toMCL-11621so we can reopen the report.@markderickson - No, these are different issues, in different applications.
MCL-11621is a crash in the launcher, whereas this issue here is a crash in the jvm running Minecraft itself. (this is evident in the crash reports):This issue:
MCL-11621:OTOH, I haven't been seeing this with 1.17.x, and haven't had time with 1.18 when running without an external monitor (which uses the always uses the discrete GPU, so won't trigger this issue).
