I have tried increasing RAM for Maven, exiting and shutting down processes to decrease RAM usage and I have tried deleting all files in the repository before starting the process, my server cannot update as this is a critical issue any help would be greatly appreciated!

You need to use:
export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1G

Comment by Devin Skowron [ 25/Dec/14 ]

Xor Boole, I ran this in Command Prompt: set MAVEN_OPTS -Xmx1G and incase it needed quotations I also did set MAVEN_OPTS "-Xmx1G" but in IRC people told me that it does not work they said try closing programs and most of the RAM should automatically allocate to the Maven process but that doesn't work either.

"Did you try turning it on and off?"
How did you attempt to increase memory for maven? Adding -Xmx to BuildTools' invocation won't help, you have to set that in the $MAVEN_OPTS variable.
