New chunks won't save their LoDs.
I have encountered that all new chunks i enter won't stay loaded. Only chunks i had already had loaded before appear. but all new chunks won't save. Any idea on why this could be? i am on a server running 1.19.2 with 130 mods. havn't seen anything about it from the console or error messages in chat either, and have tried setting CPU load to it's highest. here are some pics for an example and also the mods.

Can you try setting cpu load to the highest, your vanilla render distance to 2-4, then seeing if new chunks you explore get saved?
Alright.
I'll try doing that
Any other thing i should do like breaking blocks or something?
No. Didn't work sadly.
Here's a pic for reference.
Doesn't seem to work sadly.
/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: 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.
Only chunks you have explored will be saved as LODs
It is normal
If you mean that chunks you have explored stopped saving as LODs then there is a problem
Try placing and/or breaking couple blocks in chunks that don’t want to save
Having max CPU load while doing so
No that's the problem
new chunks i explore don't get saved.
And i don't know why.
Yeah this
.
It's new chunks i go to and then have explored. do not get saved.
Atleast from what i can tell.
wdym by new chunks?
When do the chunks transition from new to old and get saved?
At some point all the chunks had to be new...
.
Hmmm. by that i mean i had some already loaded before the problem occured, i hadn't loaded any in some days. then i went to go scout a bit. found some unloaded chunks, i go in and out of the chunk but no new loaded chunk stays loaded in the LoD. and i don't know why.
the chunks won't save i think. only render with vanilla render distance.
Also i'll try again to make them update with this
Doesn't work.
could you try with only DH?
Like only havin that render?
Well now only LoDs render.
Here's what that looks like. don't think it's correct.
no i mean with only DH installed
I can't do it on this world as it's on a server.
and isn't mine.
but i can test it on a different modpack with only it installed.
Well seems to work in a singleplayer world on the modpack. i'll now try it out on a diffrent modpack with only Distant horizons.
Ok went to a modpack and only had distant horizons installed. is this what you meant?
kinda
it looks like its working fine there at least
Yes. it does seem.
and did you test with the same modpack but in singleplayer?
Yes
i dont know then, sorry
It worked there to.
Wait
Could it be because i inserted the save file in?
what do you mean?
Like i inserted a file of the LoD data i had as i switched pc.
shouldnt matter
Hmmm
but you can try making a backup of it and then deleting it
seeing if it works then
True
I'll give that a shot. I also still have the old save file i transported over.
Ok. Well deleting the fil and joining seems to make it work.
Now i'll try to re insert it and load back in and see if that has made it somehow work.
Well....
The save still has the same problem.
But it atleast seems to not be a problem with the mod but the save.
I'll try and load an older save.
odd, very odd
I can try and send the save itself.
Something must've happend to it.
i dont have the time atm to test it
Alright.
Hopefully the older one works.
Shouldn't lose much thankfully.
if it does.
Well. Good news. The older save works. it load the chunks in LoD
Also where would i put the broken save file if someone were to want to have a look at it and try to see why it won't make any new LoDs?
with save file you mean a save file of a minecraft world right?
No i mean the DH folder
Server folder.
Yeah the Distant_Horizons_server_data
folder.
yea you can send that here if you dont zip it or smth
Or preferably only the folder of that one server and not whole
Distant_Horizons_server_dataWell it only has the data for that one server so all good.
Just one problem. it's 4.47GB big.
Just one problem. it's 4.47GB big.
So any suggestions on how i can share it?
you could upload the sqlite to google drive and send the link
I could.
I'll see if i can figure out how.
also the sqlite is the server_data for the server right?
yes
Ok.
Ok. i think i got a link to it, here. do tell if it works. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IlwwX-azdOSEe5bvC_nLi5zLRCWD-J43?usp=drive_link

gonna test it now
can you edit the permissions so anyone can download it?
i'll try.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IlwwX-azdOSEe5bvC_nLi5zLRCWD-J43?usp=sharing ok maybe this one will work?
Hopefully it will.
it works fine for me
new chunks update fine like they should
wth-
with the word file?
Well. idk. maybe it was an error with the world that made it break on that world specifically?
Well. one thing i have started doing now is making backups of the file so i can go back to one that works if one breaks.
hmm yea
might be best
because i am out of ideas unfortunately
Dang.
