WorldFarView

Inspired by FarPlane2, this mod enhances render distance using Quad trees.

Installation & Usage

1. Install the mod on both client and server.
2. Join a world – the mod activates automatically.

• Note: High resolutions may require longer loading times.

1. Currently supports only noise-based chunk generators (vanilla-compatible).

• The mod will notify you if any compatibility issues arise.

⚠️ Development Notice: This mod is still in active development and may have stability issues.

⚙️ Configuration

Client Settings (Editable in-game via Mods menu)

| Setting | Description | Recommended Value |
|———|————-|————————–|
| Quad Tree Radius | Horizontal radius covered by the quad tree | 65536 blocks, big values may lead to high memory usage |
| Quad tree max depth | Maximum adaptive quad tree depth | Depends on tree radius and resolution |
| Fade distance | Distance used to fade in terrain beyond the vanilla render distance | Your render distance |

⚠️ If the server rejects client settings (e.g., unsupported resolution), the mod will auto-disable.

Server Settings (Can be found in world/server files)

| Setting | Description |
|———|————-|
| clientSide | If true, sends seed/generator data to clients (unsupported in current version). If false, forces server-side generation. |
| maxRadius | Reject quad tree requests above this radius |
| maxDepth | Reject quad tree requests above this depth |

Last update removed quad tree generation on server for memory optimizations. Instead, server sends only heights in desired points.

🛠️ For Developers: Adding Compatibility

To integrate your custom world generator:

1. Implement FarChunkGenerator and register it in FarChunkGenerators.
2. For client-side support, create:

• ClientFarChunkGenerator
• SerializableFarChunkGenerator<YourClientFarChunkGenerator>
