Pre loading chunks

whats the best way to preload chunks? i dont want to have to explore an area to see it, is there a way i can see it from when i spawn?, ive seen people say to use the Distant generation, but either i dont know how it works or it isnt working

As long as you are not on a server you can just wait and dh will generate lods to your specified lod distance if you are on a server you have to explore chunks for dh to generate lods for them

Only option is to explore the chunks sorry and you also have to stay in the chunks for enough time to let dh generate a lod for it

I didn't suggest that as I do not know much about it and would be of little use trying to explain it last I checked it still had quite a few bugs

Don't send zip files please, J If you don't want to use the serverside support branch, you can also copy the world to singleplayer, generate the LODs there, then move the LODs to the multiplayer folder /lodstored

You can copy the server world to single player, generate LODs there, adn copy them back to multiplayer

so just sit afk in singleplayer ? does the lods that are generated just changed with the lod distance?

I don’t think I understand the question LODs are saved and generated only with the highest quality, and only later while they are loaded if they are far away the lower quality LODs are genarated on the run

no, it generates all detail levels at once

Puhpine
Puhpine3mo ago
yes, turn up cpu load in dh's settings and wait
