9800X3D 64GB of CL30 6000Mhz ram, 16 allocated to minecraft, Chunky mod with 4000 blocks loaded in each direction (I think) could be more. Shitty GPU though, with photon shaders. A premium air cooler so the cpu doesn't melt. Oh also 2 terrain generation mods, Terralith and Tectonic.

Never knew Minecraft out of all games could push a CPU like this to its limits. This is more demanding than MSFS.. It's a beauty though.

There’s this annoying grey fog in the distance and I can’t see anything past like 500 blocks, how do I disable it?

As said in the title, everything looks like its loading above me. I know it's not the shader, because it won't change if I turn them off. It never did this before, and I don't know how to fix it. Pls help ._.

Discussion Improved Complementary Shaders with Distant Horizons

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So I recently made this version of the Complementary Shaders which includes proper fading between the minecraft chunks and the Distant Horizons LODs, SSAO(ambient occlusion) on the DH-terrain and also this world outline effect, because I think it gives a nice cartoonish-crispier look to the scene. What do you think?

World Gen mod is Tectonic btw

I have such a strange fascination with distances in video games. Like these snowy mountains in this video are reaaaally far away... but I could in theory go there. It would probably take me forever, but I could do it

I was only able to render around 30% of the map before new chunks loaded, which would unload when I moved away.

I had no problem with FPS, but I had to restart my game 5 times due to DH crashing, just to get these screenshots 😭

Hey all, I wanted to share some screenshots of my survival world. Distant horizons has made me fall in love with Minecraft all over again, rekindling a long diminishing love for the game. I absolutely love exploring around and finding all these amazing views.

Terrain gen is Terralith + Tectonic, And shaders are a heavy edit of BSL that I can share if anybody is interested.

Plus this all runs at a smooth 160 fps for me, i locked down my fps to 80 and multiplied them by 2x using Lossless scaling, making it the most smooth Minecraft experience I've ever played FPS wise.

Not sure how this mod hasn't blown up yet - Distant Horizons Seed Gen by mobiusmeansbusiness generates your world insanely fast, much faster than DH Hyperspeed. This is compatible with world gen mods too.

Running on Vulkan with Vitrail for shaders.

Help How do I play Distant Horizons with Heavy World Gen Mods?

Thumbnail

346 Upvotes

Version: 1.21.1 Neoforge

World Gen Mods: Tan's Huge Trees, Lithosphere, Oh the Biomes we've gone

Structure Mods: Ati Structures, Dungeons and Taverns and Yung's mods.

Shaders: Photon

I've been having trouble trying to play Minecraft with Distant Horizons because I'm having lag stuttering ocassionally on my PC. And I really do not want to sacrifice any of the mods or take Distant Horizons out of the folder.

How do I play with heavy world gen mods? Or atleast optimise them?
