Moving server data to DH
Hi, i know that getting Lod's from a server to your client requires moving yourself through the server and it saving as you go along, as said in FAQ, but i own the server i plan on playing on and have already used chunky to pre-generate it there, may i get some advice on how i could take that data and move it to my end?
tldr, pre-genned my own server want that data on my own client DH

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: https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1285883332768563284
Keep in mind that this build is still experimental, we do not encourage using it on large servers until further testing.
That is 1
And 2:
You can copy the server world to singleplayer, generate the LODs in single player, and then copy the LODs to multiplayer folder
/lodstored
Single Player:
- Overworld:
.minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- Nether: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIM-1/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- End: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIM1/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
- Custom Dimensions: .minecraft/saves/WORLD_NAME/DIMENSION_FOLDER/data/DistantHorizons.sqlite
Multiplayer:
- .minecraft/Distant_Horizons_server_data/SERVER_NAME/this one could probably be done, cant use the newer updates since it causes weird crashes so the first answer is out, thanks for your time ill try this
thats gonna be a big file tho lol
Any idea for Paper?
You the plugin version
But it is really outdated so you need to find compatible DH version to go alongside it
Yeah, the plugin version. I don't have a modded server.
So there isn't one currently. I'm trying to update the server, not downgrade. =\
So there's no plans for a Paper plugin. Got it.
There are plans on a paper plugin, it has even been made already with most of the features the mod version has. It just hadn't been updated to the latest changes in the mod version
