Entity distant culling

[fringe meadow]

Is it possible to disable entity distant culling property from an entity (to enable entity render at higher distances other than 4 chunks) just like the Ender Dragon and many entities from the 15th Year Anniversary map (hot air balloons as an example), or is this feature hardcoded?

[reef yarrow]

you can use the ender dragon's runtime to your mob

-# since idk about other ways to do it

I think the hot air balloon is block.

[fringe meadow]

the balloons are animated and can be killed with /kill command

so they have some magic :D

i also need to know this , can you please let me know if you find a solution?

I decrypted this shit and the madmen took an entity to ALWAYS follow you. This entity possesses several models that render across the map's layout at corresponding coordinates. So, if a hot air balloon was at 70 80 70 in the world and its map, then in the animation file, there would be a hot air balloon at the corresponding position in the model.

The mind blowing part is that it takes your coordinates as the player and constantly offsets the massive, decorative model's position so it appears like there is just a bunch of custom models rendering from afar without any distance restraint.

TL;DR these devs are insane

And I am still working on decoding the mystery behind that dragon

There HAS to be a way

Btw here is the file of the entity in that map

holy sh**

If you can find another marketplace addon/map that has entities that render outside of render distance, lmk

I can decrypt them

Ngl I also wanna try it out for my entity but I am desperate to find out how they do it

[unreal folio]

all of this complexity just for entities to render from far away

mojang bedrock dev team please

[real holly]

Even the Java has larger simulation distance up to 400+ blocks I think

[serene raven]

Yeah I figured it'd be smth like that

[rigid cosmos]

did someone find a way to do that?

[rigid cosmos]

even if you use it dont render your entity like ender dragon

[rigid cosmos]

did someone find how the ender dragon works to do that?

[reef yarrow]

ye

which is sad

[tired mulch]

guys can we do it by making a ticking area and put the entity in it ?

nvm it doesn't work

[rigid cosmos]

i am still searchig to find a way to do it

[solemn sphinx]

ts is too advance for me to understand

explain

[solemn sphinx]

how does this not work

what about persistent property

[rigid cosmos]

doesnt work is like the entity is invisible but he can move even if he is not rendered.

[tired mulch]

cant we copy the ender dragon's render_controller ?

[tired mulch]

of just make a big af model

[viscid arch]

in this 15th Year Anniversary map, there is a tiny entity keep floating above your head, and it render all entity models in the map
