Pregen misunderstanding

Hello I have a quick question
I have pregenerated 400 chunk radius from my base, with DH installed in my server, with the INTERNAL_SERVER generation mode
Now I logged into the server but I don't see the 400 chunks generated, either the LOD or the normal ones
There's probably something I didn't understood about the pregeneration method, what can I do ? My goal is to have the highest LOD range possible without needing to explore them by myself

the chunks also need to be send to the client, which can take some time

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:01 PM

does f3 say "server has full DH support"?

PPuhpine the chunks also need to be send to the client, which can take some time

ok good to know, i guess i have to go AFK in my server then ? btw its been some hours and i still don't feel my LOD viewing range is increasing
here's what i have in the F3 menu

World generation in general is quite slow, if you want to speed it up:
Install Noisium, Lithium and C2ME(DH 2.3.0+). These mods can improve generation speed by a bit, but it will still not be fast.
Increase

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)

try the wireframe thingy

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:04 PM

thatll tell you what chunks the client is currently requesting from the server

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:05 PM

if you dont see wireframes in the distance, then it is probably not working

PPuhpine try the wireframe thingy

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:05 PM

can you be more explcite I don't understand

PPuhpine if you dont see wireframes in the distance, then it is probably not working

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:05 PM

in which case, make sure distant generation is on on both the server and client

RRobone can you be more explcite I don't understand

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:05 PM

Go to DH settings > Advanced Options > Debug > Wireframe, set Enable Debug Wireframe Rendering and Show World Gen Queue to 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)

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:12 PM

this is what i can see in the distance, i'm not sure but it doesn't look normal

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:13 PM

since it would be more logical to request nearby LOD instead of the far away ones

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:14 PM

my LOD render distance setting is at 1024 btw

hmmm

Puhpine•4/3/25, 7:20 PM

what if you rejoin?

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:22 PM

trying that now

Jckf•4/3/25, 7:26 PM

Reduce GUI size and send F3 screen again. There's a counter in there that shows number of successful LOD requests, but it's cut off in your earlier screenshot

Jckf•4/3/25, 7:26 PM

And maybe send client /logs

YAGPDB.xyz•4/3/25, 7:26 PM

You should send your

latest.log

latest.log

file to provide additional useful information.

Logs are usually located in the

.minecraft/logs

.minecraft/logs

directory.
On Windows:

%appdata%\.minecraft\logs

%appdata%\.minecraft\logs

On Linux:

~/.minecraft/logs

On Mac:

~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/logs

Please upload the file to mclo.gs instead of sending the raw file. This makes reading the contents of the file a lot easier and improves the chances of you getting the help needed.

i'll see for the logs

PPuhpine what if you rejoin?

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 7:31 PM

nothing now (i've checked, the wireframe option is still enabled)

JJckf And maybe send client /logs

Looks like it's in the middle of login sync in that screenshot

Jckf•4/3/25, 8:42 PM

Stay online for at least a few minutes, then send another screenshot

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 9:02 PM

during that time i tried to tweak some settings from the config file, server side, like the maxDataTransferSpeed from 500 to 0

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 9:02 PM

and now I can see LODs starting to load

Looks like it's working. Around 9000 requests completed successfully

0 failures

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 9:05 PM

good then, idk which one of the settings that i've tweaked made this to work, but at least it's working
thanks for your help

Jckf•4/3/25, 9:08 PM

It should do this right out of the box, but depending on your CPU, plus CPU preset and quality setting in the DH config, processing and rendering the received LODs might take some time. You can toggle back and forth between vanilla and DH by disabling "distant generation" in Dh's settings. You should be able to tell if you can see further or not

RoboneOP•4/3/25, 9:14 PM

I'm a barbarian i've put every settings to the max
