DH blend start too close
It's an issue I never had before until the nightly build for 1.21.4. Server and singleplayer start the LOD around 6-7 chunks distance while the server I'm playing on is around 10-12 RD and in singleplayer I'm at 16 chunks render distance so DH is displaying the LOD over the actual chunks but way too soon, so I'm seeing the LOD instead of the chunks. I couldn't find a setting to correct it

I don’t remember where is the overdraw prevention setting located, but I know it exists
/overdraw
Hole at the edge of vanilla Render Distance, especially during movement:
This is caused by either vanilla terrain not loading in fast enough, or shader's incorrect overdraw prevention implementation or configuration (if you use one)
Some world gen speed improvement can be found when adding these two mods, but the affect will be minor:
- Noisium
- Faster Random
There is another mod that may help:
C2ME. However, it can decrease DH generation speed by up to 35%.
The easiest fix is to move slower and/or ignore it. This hole is most visible while moving over not generated (by vanilla) terrain. Moving over that terrain every subsequent time may not create the hole. And moving slower will give MC more time to load the chunks as you go.
If none of that helped, you can also tune the overdraw prevention, look at the third section to know how.
Low quality full blocks behind and around non-full block, e.g. fences or ladders:
This is intended behavior, to prevent holes in the world while you move, DH will overlap with some part of the vanilla terrain.
How much of the terrain is covered is determined by the overdraw prevention:
- 1.0 will mean DH LODs start where vanilla chunks end.
- 0.0 will mean that DH render everywhere starting from your position.
To fix this, you can either:
- Increase your vanilla RD, which will move the DH LODs further from you.
- Tune the Overdraw Prevention setting, see the next section to know how.
Where to edit the overdraw prevention setting?
Overdraw prevention setting can be edited inside the DH config under:
Advanced > Graphics > Advanced Graphics
But if you use shaders, they will override and take control of the overdraw prevention.
In that case, check the shader's settings, if overdraw prevention is not there, contact the shader devs or change the shader you use.Sections 2 and 3
Thanks, but I do not see the overdraw settings, from the DH config > Advanced Options > Graphics (1st screenshot) > Quality (2nd screenshot)
I tried the LOD bias /default 0) but didn't change
I have no idea where this setting was reallocated to in the new config 😕
Ok, I tried to look around again but beside the graphics, all other options are irrelevant but in the graphics tab I can't find anything close to that.
It is simply missing in the nightly build ?
nvm, finally manage to found it after a 2nd look, it's in the Culling tab now
