Please make sure to install the JDK (Java Development Kit) and not the JRE (Java Runtime Environment). On all environments, the recommended Java Virtual Machine under which GAMA has been tested is the one distributed by Oracle ( ). Please note that GAMA is not considered as compatible with Java 1.9 and Java 1.10 as it has not been tested under these environments. The version without JDK requires that Java 1.8 Oracle JDK is installed on your machine. The version with JDK does not require the installation of any other software and in particular the Java JDK. 120MB in its version without Java JDK) and a minimum of 4GB of RAM (to increase the portion of memory usable by GAMA, please refer to these instructions).

It is not recommended to use it, as many issues have been fixed and many improvements have been introduced in the release. You first need to determine which version to use (it depends on your computer, which may, or not, support 64 bits instructions, but also on the version of Java already installed, as the number of bits of the two versions must match). Note that the previous versions (GAMA 1.8RC2 and 1.7) came with 32 bits version for Windows and Linux (but without any version with an included Java JDK). The advantage of this version is that the file download is lighter and that the user can update the Java JDK to prevent new security vulnerabilities. the version without JDK requires Java 1.8 Oracle JDK to be installed on your computer (at least the update 161).This JDK should thus not be used with any other applications. But the provided JDK is not automatically updated to fix security issues.
