thought this looked cool.

I’m using a dev build for 1.20.1 that they have in their discord server, they don’t have an official release for that version yet.

    When you set render to 128 chunks, does it render all 128 chunks or only those chunks which have already been rendered beforehand?

      It’s a setting you can change. The default is a “quick generation” mode which looks as similar to the world seed/settings as it can without taking the performance hit of actually generating it. But it can either be changed to generate the chunks genuinely out to the render distance (which would be lag hell for 128 chunks) or to only render already generated chunks (like you suspect). Only the latter works in multiplayer though.

        Thanks. I was wondering if I started using it, would it lag everyone else or not. This is better.
