Shader question/possible broken generation

okay so a goofy question, but using optifine, is there like, a list of shaders that actually work? i keep seeing videos on yt with shaders and this mod, but when i tried with complementary shaders and another shaderpack, it just used the regular client render distance another thing thats happening is that distant horizons only seems to work with chunks that i already explored, and does not load in any other chunks outisde my regular minecraft render distance. the only mods i have installed are optifine and DH 2.0

they quite surely already have iris, probably incompatible shader version

alright sorry you overestimate my reading comprehension

yeah you do need iris, not optifine. Optifine has no way to getting shaders to work on LODs, and iris has a dedicated system for it
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
cool, so if i do that will complentary shaders work?
sane
sane3mo ago
not yet

I believe they are testing support, but only available through patreon? you'll find more info on the complementary or iris discords

lmao ye shall not swear
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
all ye shant curse but what about the second half? is DH only supposed to load the chunks you've been in before?
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
on servers it will do that
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
or does optifine break that too
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
in singleplayer it should load everything
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
im on singleplayer wack

do you have distant generation enabled in the settings?
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
ill try without optifine ..is that on by default?
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
optifine does change up some chunk loading stuff
sane
sane3mo ago
try increasing the cpu load level and wait
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
should be
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
i have it on balanced, should i increase it past that?
sane
sane3mo ago
if you want to generate lod chunks faster, yeah
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
depends on your cpu really, some will struggle with higher
sane
sane3mo ago
just chill somewhere and let it generate for a while its not a fast proccess
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
does that affect if the games more or less laggy? its kinda laggy as it stands and i have a (bear with me) ryzen 3600, 32gb of ram, and a 6800
sane
sane3mo ago
same eh close enough i put it on the highest cpu level and let it generate over night
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
AWHEHA I keep forgetting
sane
sane3mo ago
after that i put it back to balanced xd
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
i mean, ill be using it on a server so it shouldnt matter too much whateva but for singleplayer i was hoping for nice screenshots within a reassonable timeframe
sane
sane3mo ago
do you have the seed for the server?
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
didn't even create it yet lol
sane
sane3mo ago
are you going to have the seed?
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
yeah
sane
sane3mo ago
then you can generate the lods in singleplayer and move them to the multiplayer save /lodstored

you could just enable cheats and use a tp in the singleplayer world

BROOOO yo im actually so hyped lol so nice i could but im lazy i might do that if thats the screenshots though
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
running 10k chunks is easier than lmao
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
actually insane to see it like that true lol might as well do it in singleplayer aw bruh is there an alternative to iris that runs on forge? @sane
sane
sane3mo ago
nope
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
NOOOO

only hope is to wait for oculus to be based on iris 1.7 but who knows when that will happen
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
oculus please clutch up again
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
is it impossible for you to use iris?
_2FA
_2FA3mo ago
well i kinda created a modlist based 100% on forge so yeah most of the mods dont have a fork or anything
capta1nseal
capta1nseal3mo ago
if the modlist isn't too big, it could actually be that all the mods have fabric releases, a large amount do these days

its like 40 long and i think like 20 of them dont highly unfortunate
