doesnt work in general but i can see some signs of it

Hi, I have found out about Distant Horizons trough tiktok, and wanted to give it a try trough fabric and also install some other mods (i just took fabric api, sodium, indium, controlled, distant horizons, iris mod and framework) but as i loaded in the game and went trough every single setting of the DH it did not want to load the chunks. I have watched countless tutorials and it doesnt even let me use the /chunky command. i am playing in 1.20.1 singeplayer. Even with DH not working, i still have some stuff i want to ask you guys. How do i make the iris shader MOD to work? i havent seen any settings for it and i have tried putting it in my shader list, didint work.
i am also pretty new to the whole sodium indium and fabric api stuff too, so i struggled to download everything

Chunky is known to cause LODs to turn into swiss cheese and bloat up world size, as can be seen in the attached screenshot.

We recommend you enable "Distant Generation" in Distant Horizons' settings and wait.

If you actually want to pre-generate vanilla chunks along with LOD data, disable Distant Horizons, wait for chunky to finish, then re-enable Distant Horizons.

i mentioned in my title that ,,i can see some signs of it''

You won't be able to use the /chunky command if you didn't install the chunky mod

You can access iris's settings via the video settings and clicking on shaders, or using the keybinds i, o, and p.

Because DH renders everything at a lower quality. The lowest quality DH can render is a 1x1 meter cube, so flowers appear as that.

It looks from your screenshots like DH is working, but it just takes a long time for all the chunks to generate

If it feels like LoD generation with

Distant Generator

Distant Generator

is too slow:
Try increasing

CPU Load

CPU Load

in Distant Horizons settings for faster generation, but you will experience more lag spikes and stuttering due to heavier workload on CPU.

To see if

Distant Generator

Distant Generator

is really working or not:
1) Check CPU usage while in-game, using

Aggressive

Aggressive

settings of

CPU Load

CPU Load

. If CPU usage's hovering around 80-100%, the LoDs are generating in the background.
2) Go to

DH settings > Advanced Options > Debug > Wireframe

DH settings > Advanced Options > Debug > Wireframe

, set

Enable Debug Wireframe Rendering

Enable Debug Wireframe Rendering

and

Show World Gen Queue

Show World Gen Queue

True

True

.
Enabling both settings will show you the visualization of world gen tasks queued and working on the map (blue boxes for queued tasks, red boxes for working tasks)

That might help
