What can I do to get DH to NOT take twenty minutes to load chunks?

I'm on an i7-12700H, so it shouldn't be taking twenty minutes. I do have C2ME installed but I've applied the workaround mentioned in #faq-mod-support (changing config options ISN'T compatibility in my eyes, it's just a workaround)

Increase CPU Load snd try Noisium

Nosium is installed, CPU load is at "I paid for the whole CPU"

maybe try lowering your fps cap or activating v-sync also how much ram have you allocated
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
Neither of those help 8GB

try checking your CPU usage while generating chunks ofcourse

100%

not sure what else then DH depends on minecrafts slow world generation so its normal that it may take a while

There's not too much you can do to speed up generation but once it's generated it loads pretty fast

Just a random guess from a clueless guy but would increasing the render CPU thread option in the regular Sodium/Minecraft options menu (I think under the tab "advanced") help? It would allocate more threads to regular chunk rendering, and if I understand correctly, DH would leverage that. Personally I set the render thread thing to 8 I think

DH creates and uses its own threads and thus it would only slow down Also rendering isn't the slow part, generation is

I need to correct myself, the option I was referring to is: Chunk Update Threads: used for chunk building, nothing to do with rendering. I set that to 8 on my setup. And for the DH thing, I was just referring to what I remember reading in one of the FAQs or on a distribution site or somewhere else, saying that the LOD generation somehow is directly influenced by regular chunk loading. Other than that, I'd have no clue what the problem might be.

Chunk generation is slow, and it's not our fault. Sure pure chunky would generate that area faster but DH has to process it a bit 1) CPU of yours ia a laptop one, make sure its not overheating, as laptops ofter will not allow you to use 100% CPU lont term without thermal throttling. 2) Your CPU had about 2-2.5 the multithread power as my e5-1650 v4, which without use of other mods gets me 64 render distance in 10 minutes exactly, meaning 128 RD will take about 20 for you DH already multithreads chunk generation, the workaroud for C2ME is so that multithreading is not done twice

Ahh, that makes sense then

also naming. "Compatible" feels like the weakest for of relation that is not "incompatible" A bit like KSP CKAN "supports"

Double the multithreading performance. /s

So you're basically saying I'm screwed until I can afford to get a desktop lol

It's not your fault, blame mojang
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
It's entirely their fault yeah lmao I feel like Minecraft is long overdue a complete rewrite
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
and this mod use case was from very start to use on single world, where you spend hours just mining and walking around generating a world to make a screenshot was never targetted use case you got bedrock... and it's bad
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
Honestly even just playing the game I get times where my framerate hovers around 15FPS lmao
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
For WHATEVER reason it's caused by dense forests

Probably another mod being weird because it literally never happens anywhere BUT my modpack
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
a lot of small shadows? idk make sure your cpu temps are reasonable otherwise you might get drop in performance everywhere
cortex
cortex3mo ago
no thats not how it works how far is your normal rd
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
16 chunks
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
try it with 8
cortex
cortex3mo ago
cause forrests are very laggy
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
23FPS
cortex
cortex3mo ago
try 2
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
OH RIGHT... every leaf block checks if it should drop
cortex
cortex3mo ago
so that no leaves are in render distance
Kasey

Yeah but it's NEVER THIS bad
cortex
cortex3mo ago
cause those look like its fancy leaves
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
My average framerate is around 150FPS
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
disable DH rendering for a moment in DH options
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
Two chunks gets it to be fairly playable

ok its not the leaves then thats what i was just testing
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
So it might be something with the fancy leaves, but I've literally never seen it THIS bad
cortex

yea
Kasey

Ack, keep forgetting about the cursing rule

it's fine, the bot is agreesive, but we do not track the score
Savage Vector

sounds like a suggestion lol
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
there is no point, and it should not be penalized
Savage Vector

It was just a joke. So long as the bot catches it, there's literally no harm done

Wee NVIDIA is being weird again ...relaunching Minecraft fixed it lmao Weird Installing Cull Less Leaves seems to have helped? At the very least I'm getting double the performance
cola98765
cola987653mo ago
seems like the vanilla forrests were the problem, not DH
Kasey
Kasey3mo ago
Still probably another mod that's causing it, since it's never so bad the game becomes unplayable

You can try and set your cpu load preset to extreme or high but be warned it is not the best to play on and your game might crash
Puhpine
Puhpine3mo ago
Your game shouldn't crash, if it does, something might be wrong with your pc
That Guy
That Guy3mo ago
well it won't crash as such as dh can stop rendering lods and distant chunks the reason being your cpu can't handle it
Puhpine
Puhpine3mo ago
Never heard of that problem before
That Guy
That Guy3mo ago
in the iris help me a couple of people have necountered it
Puhpine
Puhpine3mo ago
Well, I can relate to them
