distant horizons unloading LODs 1.20.4
I’ve set my distance radius to 256 but distance horizons seems to unload lods as soon as I go a little farther.It only has a specific area near the spawn point loaded at all times but it unloads all the other chunks.The lods would be loading perfectly in front but as soon as I turn around,all the lods behind me would just have disappeared.Only the chunks in my render distance are loaded.

Are you on singleplayer or multiplayer?
Singleplayer
Are you using shaders?
Yep,bliss shaders
Make sure you have the compatible version
I got the latest version
With dh support
Not sure then
Do you flu over chunks or walk slowely
DH might not have enought time to convert and save the lods
I’m playing in survival so I don’t fly over
I just sprint everywhere
I even wait for a few minutes some new chunks but they still disappear
what if you turn cpu load up?
im facing the same thing, ive been trying to get the LOD's to stay stable and stay put but they also degen
Still no luck
I’ve noticed that it only seems to load the lods if I look in a specific direction but the lods in that direction disappear if I go a little further and look away
Ya I’ve tried multiple things but none of them work
It’s so annoying
How long you waited for lods to generate?
:linus:
I’ve waited for around 5 minutes.The chunks seem to load only for a specific distance and then it stops loading the lods in front
:linus:
I’ve even travelled to each chunk multiple times
Good user (gender agnostic term I personally used), 256 takes at least 1 hour on average for things to load.
My render distance is set to 27 chunks and by the looks of with,including dh,its loading around 35 chunk
After that nothing
It only loads further if I go to the area in which the lods aren’t loaded but then,the lods in the previous area disappear
Depends on the CPU you have and the CPU Load settings, it can be faster or slower, but the difference is 5 to 10 minutes at best.
Recommendation, reduce vanilla distance to 10 or 12. 16 if you really want to push it. Anything beyond that hurts DH lod generation speed significantly.
My character has been standing in a single spot for the last 15 minutes approximately,but still not a single more lod loaded
Gotcha
Imma try that
The most weird thing is that dh has loaded the lods near the spawn point of the world
And it’s like a 1000 blocks away
But it’s refusing to load any lods near me
Spawn points are always loaded by the world. Of course DH takes priority on the currently loaded chunks, which if you continue to use that 27 chunk render distance, it forces DH to generate lods within those chunks.
Okay so reducing the render distance didn’t help.
I reduced the render distance to 8 but it’s still the absolute same
Still at 256 lod distance?
I’ll share a screenshot so you can see
I switched back to the default 128 just to make sure that it wasn’t an error due to 256
You can always screenshot and share the F3 menu just to be sure everything is working.
Gotcha
One moment
Sorry about the delay
I didn’t have discord updated on my pc
Here are the screenshots
Why are those so tall?
Screenshot says LODs are generating
:crong:
GUI scale Auto.
20/29832 are done
That's a lot of unfinished chunks to generate. Or is that lods?
It’s stuck on 20
It goes to 19 and then 20
chunks I think, but I don't think it makes a difference here
And keeps on repeating
Anyways, it appears you need to wait.
/slowgen
If it feels like LoD generation with
Distant Generator is too slow:
Try increasing CPU Load in Distant Horizons settings for faster generation, but you will experience more lag spikes and stuttering due to heavier workload on CPU.
To see if Distant Generator is really working or not:
1) Check CPU usage while in-game, using Aggressive settings of CPU Load. If CPU usage's hovering around 80-100%, the LoDs are generating in the background.
2) Go to DH settings > Advanced Options > Debug > Wireframe, set Enable Debug Wireframe Rendering and Show World Gen Queue to True.
Enabling both settings will show you the visualization of world gen tasks queued and working on the map (blue boxes for queued tasks, red boxes for working tasks)The 20 is the current chunk jobs by Distant Horizons. It's generating 20 chunks in that instance.
I generated the world with tectonic,reterraforged and with a 2032 height limit so they’re pretty high
Try the secound part
Gotcha
Thanks a lot for the help
:harold:
That's...
Well at least it's longer than 1 hour to generate all 256 radius chunks, that's for sure.
Looks like I should just put the pc on idle and go out for sometime
Quick question,will I need to wait for this every time I start the game?
No. Once generated, the next time you join it should load in faster.
Gotcha,thanks a lot
I'm working with @Panda to come up with the best set up https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1241971099768455219
horror
wrong panda :p
Thanks a lot,it’ll help a lot
haha
whoops
