Does it work with shaders off?
That fog seems suspiciously close. What shader pack is it, and does it have Distant Horizons support?
I turned off the shaders and it broke the water. Water disappeared.
Photon is the shader pack. I have my DH rendering disabled because I was testing whether it would render in the server or not.
Also the fog is close because the server render distance is 10 chunks.
Pretty sure when there's Distant Horizons support in the pack, the fog doesn't stop at vanilla render distance, rather, stops at LOD distance.
Try disabling shaders as what majo24 said, see if you can see further LODs.
Render only works if my own client DH has rendering enabled. This is only when client rendering is enabled.
This with client rendering and shaders off.
So in this image, do you have rendering enabled or not?
I should've clarified earlier that I thought rendering should work on a server without the need to download it on a client.
At least thats what I understood frpm the DH feature complete video. Unless I understood wrong lol.
Solution
Rendering is practically impossible to do on a server
DH on a server only generates and sends the LODs to the client
The client still has to render the LODs
Also, if rendering is disabled on the client, generation also stops, at least from what I heard. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Wait, was it distance generation on the client instead of rendering? I forgot.
I asked about Distant Generation at first
There were a few instances where id be super close to a border and the server just refused to generate and render it.
Unless I was within vanilla render distance.
My bad. For some reason I thought the server could do the generating and rendering without the client needing to have DH.
So that it would work for everyone.
No, thats sadly not possible
Thats unfortunate.
Btw while this is open. Would could be done to reduce server usage? DH makes the RAM and CPU ran at 100%
Reduce CPU Preset on the server.
Use
/dh config command for that, I forgot which one that coresponds to the CPU preset.Speaking of server it just randomly crashed on me lol
Good to know. I'll play around in the console with it.
Is it ThreadPreset?
Yes, maybe. I don't do servers.
It was, my server console doesnt suggest commands so I used the in-game console to find the right command.
This can be marked as closed or solved. Sorry about the whole distant generation thing. 😄
You'd have to mark it yourself as solved (https://discord.com/channels/881614130614767666/1358108042943533056/1358108048534802502)
