I haven't really played Minecraft in years but when I saw this I had to install it. And I am just... blown away, moved to tears, it's so beautiful. Being able to stand on a hilltop and look into the distance, see the distant rivers and mountain peaks, and then being able to really *go* there, to those distant places, and build anything I want there, and look back in the distance on the hilltop that I came from... it's a completely unprecedented experience. I'm at a loss for words.

I’m installing this! Fantastic, literally this game is alive today because of its abundance of FREE content and the games huge community support.

Honestly I’ve always came back to Minecraft, nothing has ever driven me away from the game. Just that new games come out, I play through those then eventually you get the itch to go back and start again in Minecraft. Especially modded Minecraft, with 100+ mod packs that have quests and takes you through the game in a whole new light. Every modpack feels different, a whole new game sometimes and it’s only getting better with time. This is astounding to see that we’ve come this far in tech that a game that’s 12 years old can look just as good as some of the releases today.

As far as I know, LoDs as used in the mod Distant Horizons here, have been around the entire time, and is how games like Skyrim and GTA have been able to make the open world a thing. But yes, nonetheless, it’s really satisfying and inspiring to see the community work towards implementing all of this. To have the community push the boundaries of limitations so far ahead is wondrous! I hope that they keep it up, and that the devs take note too!

For those that are curious about how it looks in VR I’ve tried it. Unfortunately you really notice the drastically lower block detail when the distant horizon is rendered in. It’s amplified a lot in VR. To be fair it’s not meant for VR. Hopefully in the future that’ll change cause it’s an incredible mod. For flat screen, levelcap is spot on. it’s an absolute game changer. The distant horizon blends in so well with the rendered world. It’s stunning to get this at little to no fps hit. Really shows the vastness of your Minecraft world.

@@arog7493 Yeah they still "work" on the game. However whether its Microsoft or Mojang, nothing gets done anymore. The largest updates since the sale of Mojang (right around the 1.8 update) was the release of the combat update (1.9) and the Nether+Caves and Cliffs updates (1.16-1.18). Outside of some server improvements made by hiring server plugin developers from the peak days of the game, everything else has just been novel additions to the same base game. It seems like none of the team has any real technical skill to make large optimizations to the existing game and that has been left to modders. Even Microsofts Bedrock team which was supposed to re-write the game to be more performant and more moddable, and instead left us with a buggy mess that isn't even up to date with the Java version in many ways.

Oh nice, I see Distant Horizons is really gaining some traction lol. The funny thing is they rebuilt Minecraft for consoles in DX12 and didn't even do anything like this, meanwhile one guy added LODs in the hard to work with Java version. Shaders, RT, 120 fps, none of that is in bedrock edition on consoles. Another mod that works really well with this is ReTerraforged. It changes the terrain generation so that there are bigger biomes with larger mountains, lakes, etc. It really brings out the larger view distance. Unfortunately that mod is also still under development, but once all these mods fully come out, things will get crazy. It's literally like Minecraft 2.

I personally like the simplicity of vanilla. I've downloaded all kinds of mods but always fall back to vanilla.

Everyone prefers such different shaders and settings they’d have to implement native support in such a way that would still allow options and customization

Again, people letting their personal preferences get ahead of what's actually good for the game.

Will definitely be downloading this and getting back into mine craft again.

god damn seeing that horizon plus cloud shadows and fog just makes it more real life. Like being able to see and literally go to that mountain peaks/canyon or whatever is just wow. I mean obviously its minecraft, you can do that in vanilla, but that visual stimulation tho

woahhh i haven’t played in ages but been wanting to. this looks extraordinary now i rlly wish i had a setup to run this

Ive seen some minecraft youtubers cover these mods but seeing my "Battlefield" youtuber praise it really hits high. You got me excited to try and get this mod even if it takes some setting up to do if you can have these amazing results! 🤩

I really hope one day we will have the same kind of render distance in Vintage Story. This game already gives me the same vibes as Minecraft when I discovered it many years ago, but much more oriented toward nature, exploration and survival, so this kind of mod would have an even greater impact on Vintage Story, I think. Would be hard to stop playing.

Huh, never heard of that game. Looks pretty interesting though. Hopefully it goes on steam someday

This is stunning! I do hope it becomes integrated. Even if its like a texture pack in the minecraft store toy buy.

I remember the first time I played Industrial Craft and I fell in love with the game even more after realizing how amazing minecrafts modding community is. I played it every single day for so many years knocking out modpack after modpack.

Great video, thanks!

This reminds me of in Zelda BOTW with how you can see from one corner of the map to the next which is just so cool.

This looks amazing! I may jump into it again. Last system I played it on was on ps3

Man I remember back when classic was the gamemode and we existed on small little maps. It's cool to see how the game has progressed over the years.

When you showed the vanilla comparison, I realised I like that better. I grew upon that tiny and personal world. The grandness lived in the imagination

This really is an amazing mod and I truly think it’s going to change the game forever! The only reason I won’t immediately jump to integrating this into all of my future worlds in its current state (besides some bugginess) is the fact that you have to preload a pretty large area of the world (at least 1000 chunks) to get it to work seamlessly. Even with new cpus this can take a while, and will take longer when used along side world generation mods like terralith. This can kind of suck when you finally finish preloading and realize that you’re not a huge fan of the area you generated. And when you are satisfied, once you decide to explore more of the world you’ll have to preload even more chunks. For all of the positives that this mod provides this is really a minor issue, but it makes using the mod casually pretty much impossible, at least for me and my last gen pc.

This is 100% true, basically if you wander a lot, game with DH is just unplayable mess, i mean the tech of the mod is amazing, but its nowhere ready for the real/production usage.

this is what another free open source voxel game called Veloren does, and the vistas are incredible. u can see the rendering increase from the 'low poly' to high when u reach an area quickly, like when using gliders, which are a default part of the game.

cant wait for some modpack to use it. I really cant handle modding manualy anymore-

Something about a realistic sky in Minecraft is just so magical what it does to the game

Used the chunky mod on a huge radius (10k by 10k blocks) to prerender chunks ahead of time. And wow it's incredibly smooth. It changes the game for the better so much.

I started playing mc when I was 12 and am now 25, watching this genuinely made me shed a tear, just the nostalgia. Like others said, this is what it felt like when I first found the game

It's funny, the moment you said it uses a skybox to "break the limitation" I could see it. I could see what's going on when you mention the "playable zone" vs the "unplayable" being the distant terrain being skyboxed

In a sense it's very similar to how Source engine does it.

If this can be integrated with a major modpack like GTNH (or others) I'll be back in a split second. It looks amazing.

About once or twice a year I get back into Minecraft for a month or so. I will never stop returning to this game.

It's a really sweet mod for sure, adds a new feel to the game to increase immersion.

I used this mod a couple of years ago, glad to see the team kept it going after the creator stepped away, it is an amazing experience for sure.

Great! I can't wait for the perfect vr experince to live in this world forever.!

I used the Distant Horizons mod years ago when it was just barely functional, and its so awesome to see how far its come

Damn, this looks awesome! I haven't played Mincraft in like 6 years. I'm definitely going to get this mod and play.

Wow Amazing! i loved minecraft the Ultimate sandbox, i loved complicated tech mods to build a crazy factory and power plants. started playing the game when there was a obscure site where you could buy it for a couple euro, how far the game came. now want to install the game again and just enjoy the vista's the game create will have it a go with the instructions and see if it plays game with some decent big modpack

Minecraft modding is so cool. I've been hooked on create and clockwork lately.
