What version of Distant Horizons do I use?

Im making a modpack with some mods (about 120 including performance mods), and I will open a server to play it with my frieds, and Idk what version of DH to use. The server will be dedicated, and the map is made with World Painter and Axion, so its not fully generated procedually, may you guys help me with that?

Just to sumarize, I need a DH version that works well playing multiplayer on a dedicated server, and the world is not generated procedually (world painter).

If you guys dont mind, please tell me the compatibilities of the version :)

and sorry my english is a bit rusty

DH is client side only, so when you join a server, distant generation won't work

Puhpine•10/4/24, 3:08 PM

/server

Distant Generation doesn't work in multiplayer, meaning DH won't be able to generate LODs for chunks outside the vanilla render distance.
Instead, as you travel around the world, LODs will be generated for areas you've visited.

In the next update, DH 2.3, you will be able to add DH to your server granted it's running a compatible mod/plugin loader (Fabric, (Neo)Forge, Bukkit and their derivatives). This will allow the server to generate LODs and send them to the client, making distant generation possible on multiplayer.
If you wish to try 2.3 early, read everything in this thread: help-meServer-side support
Keep in mind that this build is still experimental, we do not encourage using it on large servers until further testing.

Latest DH should work the best, but can be tricky if you also plan on adding shaders

Oh thats sad

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:14 PM

If I pre-gen the distant horizon in the map, and put it on .minecraft/Distant_Horizons_server_data/SERVER_NAME/ it works?

Puhpine•10/4/24, 4:15 PM

Yes, that will work

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:15 PM

Hmmm thats good

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:15 PM

I need a Nightly build for that?

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:16 PM

Yep, we will play on the server on december, maybe next year

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:16 PM

so I hope oculus or DH update until there

Bbean2xd I need a Nightly build for that?

Puhpine•10/4/24, 4:17 PM

Nope, regular dh will work fine for that

Bbean2xd so I hope oculus or DH update until there

Puhpine•10/4/24, 4:17 PM

Oculus will probably not receive anymore updates because iris is going multi loader

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:23 PM

Oh maybe thats even better

PPuhpine Nope, regular dh will work fine for that

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:23 PM

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:23 PM

I will test it

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:23 PM

txh bro

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 4:24 PM

If DH dont get enough updates until we start playing, thats the run for me i think

Puhpine•10/4/24, 4:25 PM

what update would you want then?

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 5:10 PM

Idk, maybe this nightly build finished, maybe working shaders too

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 5:10 PM

For It to generate chunks in multiplayer with shaders

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 5:10 PM

Maybe at the end of the year it happens dont?

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 5:11 PM

But if not im going to pre-render everything and send to the players to download it

Puhpine•10/4/24, 5:24 PM

The generating chunks in multiplayer is generally working already

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 6:25 PM

Oh, thats nice, but doesent work with oculus yet does it?

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 6:25 PM

So I need to wait for iris become multi loader

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 6:49 PM

Man just one more question I promise

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 6:50 PM

If I pre-render everything on the map and export it to the players data

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 6:50 PM

and something gets destroyed or burns down, if the player passes near it and it renders on the default minecraft rendering, it will update the DH data?

Bbean2xd So I need to wait for iris become multi loader

Miki_P98•10/4/24, 7:36 PM

It already is

Bbean2xd and something gets destroyed or burns down, if the player passes near it and it ...

Miki_P98•10/4/24, 7:36 PM

It should

Miki_P98•10/4/24, 7:37 PM

Depends on player’s CPU load

Miki_P98•10/4/24, 7:37 PM

And how long will they stay there

MMiki_P98 Depends on player’s CPU load

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 9:03 PM

Oh thats so good :)

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 9:03 PM

Man thank you so much

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 9:03 PM

Or Woman idk

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 9:03 PM

just thank you so much

bean2xdOP•10/4/24, 9:22 PM

Oh, do you know some mod that makes explosions danify blocks instead of breaking them? Maybe combined with multi mine to make a lot of explosions to break a wall
