Distance Horizon is a performance-optimized Fabric modpack for Minecraft 1.21.5 that enables extremely long render distances through Distant Horizons, and enhances your gameplay with smart CPU/RAM optimizations, terrain beautification, and visual polish — all without breaking your framerate.

🚀 Key Features

• 🧠 Distant Horizons – See up to 256+ chunks away using LOD terrain generation
• 🌄 Rethinking Voxels (Renderer) – Modern renderer compatible with Distant Horizons and improved visuals
• ⚙️ Iris + Sodium + Lithium + FerriteCore + C2ME + Noisium – Best-in-class performance mods
• 🪄 Continuity – Seamless connected textures & emissives
• 🔊 Sound Physics Remastered – Realistic audio bounce, reverb & occlusion
• 🧱 Tectonic – Gorgeous terrain generation made for massive draw distances

🧪 System Requirements

Based on real-world testing and data from the Distant Horizons 2.3 update and top packs

• Keep vanilla render distance under 16 for best results
• Crank “CPU Load” to I Paid For The Whole CPU in DH config when pre-generating LODs
• Use AFK chunk generation mode to pre-load far terrain, then drop to low-impact mode for normal play

🌍 Terrain Mods You’ll Love

Preselected for stunning large-scale visuals with Distant Horizons compatibility

• Tectonic – Big mountains, smooth valleys, and smart biome blending
• Lithostitched + Continents + Terralith-style patches – Natural transitions with a performance edge
• William Wyther's (optional) – Drop-in for beautiful world aesthetics if desired

🧠 Tips & Fixes from Experience

• Pregeneration takes time. LOD chunks are lower quality but still CPU-heavy.
• Batching errors in console? Safe to ignore – they’re just loading timeouts.
• Don’t overload chunks. Anything beyond 320 LOD chunks can cause major lag or RAM issues.
• Use “Minimal” or “Low Impact” mode after pregeneration to avoid stutter.

✅ Compatible & Stable

• Supports Minecraft 1.21.5
• Runs on Fabric Loader
• Client-side only — works in singleplayer and on servers running Distant Horizons 2.3+
• DOES NOT use OptiFine, ensuring cleaner performance and mod compatibility
