I'm new to using this, playing with a friend right now but how do I get the mod to start loading chunks earlier and farther away, I have it set to 400lod and I can restart it but it loads chunks slowly and only when I approach them, my normal render distance is set to 8
On servers you need to move into the chunks to load them for DH. https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1154490009735417989

If it feels like LoD generation with
Distant Generator is too slow:
Install Noisium and Faster Random, these mods optimise world generation code.
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)gotcha thanks
No problem
I just went into creative to test it, the chunks are dissapearing when im getting further away but I'm still not that far, Im on 256 LOD also
Could I show on screenshare in one of the vc?
would the chunky mod help? basically i keep walking around and nothing is rendered before i get to it, would chunky help that or should I up my default render distance
You can send a screen shot or a video here
/chunky
Chunky is known to cause LODs to turn into swiss cheese and bloat up world size, as can be seen in the attached screenshot.
We recommend you enable "Distant Generation" in Distant Horizons' settings and wait.
If you actually want to pre-generate vanilla chunks along with LOD data, disable Distant Horizons, wait for chunky to finish, then re-enable Distant Horizons.
You can speed up the generation a bit using mods:
- Noisium
- Faster Random
- Lithium
Wher in the settings in the distajt genrstiobs
Do you see any boxes from the second part of the bot's message
Distant generations * omg
I need to check give me a minute
I’m not at my pc right now but it is mainly just that I’m seeing underground a lot like the map is perfectly cut in half
Then it loads eventually but when I go back to where I was it’s like it forgot about those chunks and reloads them again
Advanced > World Generation
gotcha
You can try disabling cave culling
will do
All of this helped and it’s all working good now, besides this
I couldn’t screenshot 😭
But anytime there is a body of water their is always holes like that under it
Does it happen without shaders?
ill try
If so you might want to turn cave culling back on, but to avid the previous issues you might want to try switching to nightly
Nightly improved the culling
