#Mod that allows me to increase render distance past 64

No performance upgrades, or anything else. Just the ability to bypass the render distance.

you mean higher than 32 chunks?

C2me doesn't do that

#

designed to improve the performance of chunk generation, I/O, and loading. This is done by taking advantage of multiple CPU cores in parallel.

acoustic nymph
#

lemme check

dusty goblet
#

It's a serverside mod

#

c2me increases the max render distance to 35

dusty goblet
#

Read what he's asking

#

"No performance upgrades, or anything else. [...]"

#

Meanwhile other mods you mentioned are intended for rendering chunks farther, c2me's purpose is not for rendering chunks farther

#

That was my point

#

to be fair, if you want to have a >32 render distance, you'll definitely need all the performance mods available. Worldgen in modern minecraft is really rough on the cpu

dusty goblet
#

Yeah, that's true

simple nova
#

I'd almost even recommend a setting up a dedicated local server running paper for best results if your goal is smooth gameplay at really high render distances, since paper's worldgen is probably the fastest option

#

But as they're requesting no performance mods... Our "job" is to fulfill what they request, yet we can still recommend what's optimal

simple nova
#

eh, I don't really see it that way. Sometimes what a normal user says they want won't let them get what they actually want, usually for technical reasons, so imo a mod developer's POV/opinion helps with requests. In this case, some of the mods aimed at increasing render distance help with performance as well, which isn't a bad thing so no reason to rule out those options

dusty goblet
#

Yeah, but recommending c2me is not good, and we all know why

#

Is a "use at your own risk" mod

simple nova
#

but anyways, +1 for bobby + sodium setup (you really will need sodium to be playable). It's my personal favorite, and probably closest to fulfilling the request

dusty goblet
#

Yes

bobby does more than what I'm looking for. I'm really looking for a mod that changes one constant in the code -- just the max render distance number. bobby stores chunks instead of just increasing the render distance. I'll obviously use performance mods where needed but I am only looking to change that one restriction

#

I've used bobby and c2me btw. c2me doesn't work with experimental features like increased world height. don't worry about frying my computer lol, if that happens that's on me -- I know why it's a restriction but I am really looking for just that restriction lift
