Q: Forge or Fabric? A: Both in the same jar. Q: Shaders? A: Yes, but only for Optifine, and only for certain shaders. Iris needs to add DH support for DH to function with it. Q: Multiplayer? A: Yes, but client-side only, so you have to explore to load LODs. Q: What Minecraft versions? A: 1.16.5, 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.4, 1.20.1, 1.20.2 Q: Does this work with world gen and custom dimension mods? A: Yes
From what I have seen, I can set the LOD distance to less than 32? I remember only wanting to have a 8 render distance, but the minimum was 32, so I can have it lower now? What's the new minimum if so?
Listen man - this stuff is supposed to be what we do for fun. It should never become a burden. The minute hobbies become tiresome they turn into a burden & are no longer hobbies. You go take care of what you need to take care of. Thanks for what you’ve done so far!
Sometimes that burden is a temporary process as you have a major barrier and such, don't immediately stop just because you get that feeling, brute force through it until you absolutely reach your limit, and then make your decision then :) Saying this from experience, I have ADHD and that sensation of tiresome comes too quickly that I've taught myself to stick it through for a little longer. Also for this guy's case, he's just too busy to work on this full time, so he's scaling down his contribution, not stopping entirely.
@hyperixPutting minecraft mods behind paywalls is illegal though. That would be getting money off of someone else's intellectual property and could get you sent to the court.
It's crazy because LOD is such a basic feature for a lot of games. It's just that Mojang are pretty incompetent and never bothered to include it in Minecraft, despite it having no real negative downsides and increasing performance while making the game look amazing.
Totally agree. After fiddling around with the settings for a day or so, I'm now used to the render distance available. The moment I turn off DH however, I'm struck with how short my regular render distance is. It's odd that LOD isn't in minecraft by default.
As a modder, this is truly mind blowing. Mojang's fiddling around with random additions, these guys are just single handedly redefining the game. Fantastic work!
Absolutely! They need to do more background stuff like in 1.15. Or maybe even halt new features and focus an entire update on these which sounds boring but it’s the future of the game
@@ev3i11 you know those expansions are made by outside team's that don't actually have anything to do with minecrafts development or mojang at all (aside from the paycheck of course)
If you can get a phone, tablet or switch to run this system im sure mojang would pay you for it. Besides, bedrock can already get similar render distances on a good computer.
Exactly. It makes me really excited, since with a render distance of 1000 chunks, you can get a view distance of 16km or 10 miles, which is about the same distance you can see in real life. Idk, that’s just super cool to me
@@sgrey9181 ikr, i love looking over a huge a expanse of water and actually seeing the other side. Or see mountains looming over a plains biome, makes the world feel more real.
Theres a Building mod that is basically Extremely Convenient World Edit. I forgot the name but search up "World Edit Killer" or something like that Edit: Its called the Axiom Mod and ive tried it, It is literally the best mod ive played and makes Creative mode extremely easy
Downloading this mod for the first time and seeing the entirety of my village, from my mansion to the docks, seeing my arena, my Cathedrals and church's, my cliffs and the next village over was such a beautiful feeling.

The bug montage was incredible, and really puts into perspective how much time you must’ve put into this project. Thank you so much for all the work you’ve done to make this amazing mod available for the community!
I think I speak for most people when I say this: Take as much time as you need. Real life work, and more importantly, mental health come first. What you have done already is more than amazing. Good luck on future endeavors and hope to hear from you again at any point
Honestly, this kind of thing is exactly what Minecraft has *severely* needed for years (and should *really* exist in the base game), so it just existing is already an incredible accomplishment. Great job, chief. Rest easy.
Hearin that this whole mod started as a resume thing was low key inspiring. Congratulations and thank you for making one of the most important mods of all time.
woke up and ate breakfast and then saw this masterpiece in my recommended, today is my lucky day. I've been waiting for the new distant horizon for so long, this man never disappoints and always comes back with the best upgrades ever.
This should just be part of the game. Using world LoDs is industry standard, so it surprises me that the devs of the best-selling game of all time haven't incorporated this.
@@Qay If it would yield a huge profit on the game, they’d find a way to do it. Firstly, it would likely require a complete overhaul of the current codebase.

I tried out immersive portals along side distant horizons and it worked surprisingly well, just what looks to be a scaling issue when looking into the nether.
This is literally an essential mod for modern minecraft. It absolutely changes the way you play the game. Landmarks actually become a way to navigate your world.
Resume booster? I'd say. I really hope this mod gets you and your helpers some attention from some solid employers eventually, it's really good work. Also bug montages are some of my favorite things when devs do them. I'm glad you kept up the tradition.
@@GermanEzequiel_ What I've figured out is that with DH you can set your actual render distance to 2 chunks, simulation distance to 8 chunks, and DH render up to 32 with reasonable Level Of Detail and much better performance than even standard render at 8 chunks. The ONLY drawback is that travelling too quickly with my pc means that rendering takes awhile, so no using of Elytras. (I'm not a huge Elytra guy anyway tho lol) My Pc is 4 years old, spec'd out with an entire 4 gb Ram, and a 10'th Gen Intel Core I3 at 2.10 ghz, but it can run Version 1.20 pretty dang well with DH and a couple other minor performance mods.
@@Sterling_Silver04 Oh, thanks for explaining, I understood and I also started looking for other videos and everything became clearer to me, knowing all that, this mod is at least the top 3 best mods in the history of Minecraft quietly. On the other hand, your PC limits you quite a bit, okay, do you have optimization mods installed? There are very good optimization mods even in forge, they would help you a lot.
@@GermanEzequiel_ Glad I could help! And yes, I know my pc is pretty weak but I am running Distant Horizons, Clumps, Sodium, Phosphor, Indium, Lithium, and a couple others I don't presently remember. Any version newer than 1.16.5 is too laggy to be really playable in Vanilla for me, so I learned the way of optimisation modding and now I can enjoy newer versions and so far I am very happy with it. I sort of always grew up with tech that was way behind the curve, so I've gotten used to it lol
This is BY FAR the greatest Minecraft mod OF ALL TIME. I have been playing mc since it’s release, and typically play with 100+ mods, but I wouldn’t trade all the mods in the world for this one. It greatly surpasses anything that has ever been created and is almost as fantastic as the creation of Minecraft itself. I spent years thinking about a mod that would use LODs and was sh*t on in Reddit forums for even asking about it. Tons of reasons why it “wouldn’t work” or wouldn’t look good etc. reminds me of when everything though a four minute mile was impossible and circle jerked about how it could never be done and then bam. Amazing work my friend!!
Once Iris has DH Support, I might be able to use this mod then I might be able to get cool render distances! Sure I could just use opttfine & forge. But sodium doesn't support forge, so I'm just sticking to fabric for the time being. So glad to see this mod again!
Just use optifabric. For me, I'm just worried that if I use OptiFine, then I can't use my other mods like miniHUD but I can just switch Optifine for sodium and iris and other sodium related mods while keeping my other mods.
There are unofficial ports of Sodium and Iris to forge called Rubidium and Oculus. (There's also a Rubidium alternative called Embeddium which is better in some way (?) but I don't personally use it, so maybe check that out as well). I don't know if they work with DH, and I don't think Oculus will get Distance Horizons support, but it might.
the bug montage made me unreasonably happy :D on behalf of every mod user in the community, thank you for your hard work past present and future, it doesnt go unnoticed
Distant Horizons is the most groundbreaking and most influental mod for me when it comes to minecraft. Other mods add this and that form of content, but nothing comes close to the massive basic impact this has. Thanks for your continuous development! And do take some time off. This should remain a fun hobby after all, not an occupation. :)
Thank you for all your hard work ! This is such an amazing project and I can't believe you haven't been hired by mojang. They need this in vanilla. It makes exploring your world feel more like your choice rather than running around randomly.
Yes! Thanks for your hard work. This is a mod once you get used to it can't do without it. It turns minecraft into whole experience, only after using this mod I was able to see what minecraft was missing the true openworld feeling. Well done.
this is one of my favourite mods! if i grow up and this exists, i will donate! that 1.16.5 part is crazy! thank you! (i play 1.16.5 on my survival world)
I went back to watch all previous release videos, and the progress is insane! This mod has the power to change the modding scene vastly. Would love to see mojang implement/work with you in creating something truly beneficial to the game.
Thank you for everything you've done, man. It's great to hear that you'll still be involved in the project in the future, even if it won't be as deeply as before. But regardless, even if you walked away from it entirely now, you've already left a mark on this community that will most likely last a lifetime. Seriously, thank you. Rest assured that you made something incredible.
vid is really professionally put together, hyped for 2.0 and tysm for this. DH is borderline unimaginable and child me playing beta with a 30 block far fog would be so happy to see what u made.
Lemme give u a kiss bro my pc buit in 2013 and finally see past 12 chunks and can now render 150 chunks (low settings) like seriously, that’s a god send. Can’t wait to see how distant horizons improves over time, we will miss you but we are happy for you leaving for your own good!
Installed this mod. Jesus! I've been spending 2+ years trying to make minecraft look breathtaking, and this takes the cake. Well done, continue on your work!
Honestly, the most game changing mod I've ever come across, and what makes me keep coming back to MC from time to time. Literally can't play without it anymore. When you unlock the sheer magnitude of the splendid landscapes Minecraft can create you just can't go back. Thanks for your wonderful work and take care, hope you find yourself feeling better going forward!!
More shaders getting supported (while still looking good) is definitely the key to making this mod even more awesome then it already is :) Love all the work you and the team have done!❤
I was kind of surprised to get this in my recommended tab but I'm glad I did. The algorithm has blessed you. I hope even more people get to see this incredible mod you've created.
As a full time software engineer myself, I fully understand your decision to take a step back on your personal projects. If you were to ask me, I'd even say that keeping a healthy life, working fulltime and also keeping a side-project up-to-date is simply impossible. All the times I've tried, I've failed. So major props to you on this! I do feel however that this feature should just be implemented into the base game. With your POC, you've shown how seamlessly it can be integrated, even as a modder. It should be possible for developers who have access to the source code to implement this in the base game. It would certainly be a much better improvement than just adding more mod-like content into the base game IMHO.
I recently experienced Distant Horizons in a modpack. It was immersive AF. I didn't even need a map because I could see the whole world in the distance. Thanks for the cool mod.
Its hard to describe just how much this mod improved Minecraft. It was like a technological leap, from steam to combustion. Thank you for your project, and I hope you find your best mental balance.

I can see where this is going. This mod will become a supermod. The kind of mod that other mods branch off of. Such as optifine.
Yes! Thanks for your hard work. This is a mod once you get used to it can't do without it. It turns minecraft into whole experience, only after using this mod I was able to see what minecraft was missing the true openworld feeling. Well done.
RAIN WORLD MENTIONED⛈⛈⛈🐈🐈
God bless you man!, i wish you all the best.
ran worl
this is one of my favourite mods!
if i grow up and this exists, i will donate!
that 1.16.5 part is crazy! thank you! (i play 1.16.5 on my survival world)
5:18 TEAM COU
I went back to watch all previous release videos, and the progress is insane! This mod has the power to change the modding scene vastly. Would love to see mojang implement/work with you in creating something truly beneficial to the game.
thank you so much for your work. the fact that good people like you do this instead of billion dollar companies is disheartening.
That bug montage made my day, it was hilarious, I've never really thought of keeping a record of my craziest bugs, but maybe I should
loved the bug montage
Thanks for everything. It helps a lot. I really love this mod.
Thank you for your service, King
👑 Sad to hear it, tho
Thank you for everything you've done, man. It's great to hear that you'll still be involved in the project in the future, even if it won't be as deeply as before. But regardless, even if you walked away from it entirely now, you've already left a mark on this community that will most likely last a lifetime. Seriously, thank you. Rest assured that you made something incredible.
the bug compilation?.... one of the funniest things ive seen so far in this year, great video man!
vid is really professionally put together, hyped for 2.0 and tysm for this. DH is borderline unimaginable and child me playing beta with a 30 block far fog would be so happy to see what u made.
Lemme give u a kiss bro my pc buit in 2013 and finally see past 12 chunks and can now render 150 chunks (low settings) like seriously, that’s a god send. Can’t wait to see how distant horizons improves over time, we will miss you but we are happy for you leaving for your own good!
tbh i think this is the single most complex and ambitious minecraft mod ever even attempted and its beautiful. its perfect. wonderful work.
0:10 I left my office job 6 months ago, you gave me PTSD
This is actually the first I'm hearing of this project, it looks awesome! I'll definitely be checking it out!
This mod single-handedly made me interested in minecraft again, thanks for everything and good luck on your endeavours.
the rain world soundtrack.... just so.... good... hypnotic...

take a break!
don´t burnout!!!
the mod is amazing, yes it can always be better, but take a rest, it will be good for you!
The rain world music im in love
3:29 I like how clouds are rendering in front of the mountains lol
That montage was the stuff of dreams and nightmares. It's beautiful. I have so much respect for you.
Awesome mod, and I love the progress being done, but as a side note, thanks for the exposing me to Rain World, the music is oh so good lol.
Installed this mod. Jesus! I've been spending 2+ years trying to make minecraft look breathtaking, and this takes the cake. Well done, continue on your work!
Really appreciate your work!
Honestly, the most game changing mod I've ever come across, and what makes me keep coming back to MC from time to time. Literally can't play without it anymore. When you unlock the sheer magnitude of the splendid landscapes Minecraft can create you just can't go back. Thanks for your wonderful work and take care, hope you find yourself feeling better going forward!!
More shaders getting supported (while still looking good) is definitely the key to making this mod even more awesome then it already is :)
Love all the work you and the team have done!❤
I was kind of surprised to get this in my recommended tab but I'm glad I did. The algorithm has blessed you. I hope even more people get to see this incredible mod you've created.
Mate thank you so much for making this mod! By far one of the best mods for minecraft of all time. It really should be in the base game.
As a full time software engineer myself, I fully understand your decision to take a step back on your personal projects. If you were to ask me, I'd even say that keeping a healthy life, working fulltime and also keeping a side-project up-to-date is simply impossible. All the times I've tried, I've failed. So major props to you on this!
I do feel however that this feature should just be implemented into the base game. With your POC, you've shown how seamlessly it can be integrated, even as a modder. It should be possible for developers who have access to the source code to implement this in the base game. It would certainly be a much better improvement than just adding more mod-like content into the base game IMHO.
You frigging gave me a work related jumpscare with that teams call tune
This is an incredible project, thank you for all the work you have put in and for this video. I hope you take care of yourself.
Thanks for not leaving us in the dark too many mods or channels do that kinda go used to it
I recently experienced Distant Horizons in a modpack. It was immersive AF. I didn't even need a map because I could see the whole world in the distance. Thanks for the cool mod.
Dude this is awesome, I'm just about to start a modded playthrough tonight so the timing is impeccable
Its hard to describe just how much this mod improved Minecraft. It was like a technological leap, from steam to combustion. Thank you for your project, and I hope you find your best mental balance.
i was so confused why this was in my recommended, and then i noticed the rainworld ost playing in the background. good taste!
I love this project and this makes me so happy to have this amazing mod in 1.10
I love the behind-the-scenes bug stuff. You never see that from ANY projects, only the polished final product
Incredible. This is amazing!
