[HELP] Tips & Tricks and best step-by-step method to (pre)generate DH chunks and LODs?
Hello everyone, I know this question (more or less) has been asked many times before, which is why I would appreciate some clarification on the matter, as I'm still a bit unclear due to the scattered information. So, I need a step-by-step "guide"/explanation on how to generate a large number of LODs within the world without having to manually explore it. But in any case, having them pre-generated with Chunky or similar is also necessary for me to reduce the chunk load, as I'm playing with a modpack that includes other mods. So..
I know that Chunky does NOT pre-generate LODs, and I'm also aware of the 'swiss cheese' issue. However, I would like to know how to proceed.
Some question are:
How does the generation of LODs work? Once I enter the world, what settings do I need to configure? Should I first pre-generate the chunks with Chunky (as many as I want), then disable it, re-enable DH, but with which settings? And then, should I be able to see the LODs in the distance? + if I explore other dimensions like the end or nether (in which I don't care about generating LODs, when I return to the overworld it won't overwrite my LODs] in theory?
So, I would need to understand step by step (even in a summarized way) what the procedures are. It would clear up a lot of doubts. Many thanks!
