Distant Horizons SeedGen

A faster, more performant alternative to Distant Horizons native Distant Generator

This is an Addon for DH, so it requires it and doesnt replace it

Showcase Video

Statistics

These were optained from various tests under the same conditions on the same hardware

• For DH versions before 3.3 (Pre N sized Worldgen) Seedgen provides various speedups, from 10.7x in the Overworld to 2.3x in the Nether

• For DH versions past 3.3 (N sized Worldgen) Seedgen can provide full detail at huge render distances while still being 5.6x faster than DH Hyperspeed (speedup increases further with render distance)

NOTE: SeedGen is NOT outdated when using the new DH Hyperspeed Generator! It provides faster speed, features such as trees directly, and better mod compat!

Capabilites

• SeedGen calcualtes terrain directly from the seed instead of fully generating it, realistically faking assets such as trees, and placing structures at the correct coords differently.
• Works slower in multiplayer, due to native DH and network restrictions
• Once an area is explored, Distant Horizons will save the terrain as normal
• SeedGen is now officially COMPATIBLE with EVERY SINGLE* NOISE BASED TERRAIN GENERATION MOD
• SeedGen 0.7.0+ is compatible with custom structure mods
• SeedGen 0.8.0+ has lightning fast server generation
  • For this, DH and SeedGen must installed on both client and server, and mods and datapacks the server uses to edit generation need to be installed client side.
  • If any conditions are not met, SeedGen informs the user of which and stands down.
  • Install server-side mods to your client, put server-side datapacks in your native "seedgen-datapacks" folder
