# What is Distant Horizons?
|
|
|
|
This mod adds a Level Of Detail (LOD) system to Minecraft.\
|
|
This implementation renders simplified chunks outside the normal render distance\
|
|
allowing for an increased view distance without harming performance.
|
|
|
|
Or in other words: this mod lets you see farther without turning your game into a slide show.\
|
|

|
|
See the Fabric Documentation online for more detailed instructions:\
|
|
https://fabricmc.net/wiki/tutorial:setup
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
* A Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java 17 (recommended) or newer. Visit https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/ for installers.
|
|
* Git or someway to clone git projects. Visit https://git-scm.com/ for installers.
|
|
* (Not required) Any Java IDE, for example Intellij IDEA and Eclipse. You may also use any other code editors, such as Visual Studio Code. (Optional)
|
|
It's better to use IntelliJ IDEA since Eclipse is not supported by Architectury, but it still works.
|
|
|
|
**If using IntelliJ:**
|
|
1. open IDEA and import the build.gradle
|
|
2. refresh the Gradle project in IDEA if required
|
|
|
|
**If using Ecplise:**
|
|
1. run the command: `./gradlew geneclipseruns`
|
|
2. run the command: `./gradlew eclipse`
|
|
3. Make sure eclipse has the JDK 17 installed. (This is needed so that eclipse can run minecraft)
|
|
4. Import the project into eclipse
|
|
|
|
## Compiling
|
|
|
|
**Using GUI**
|
|
1. Download the zip of the project and extract it
|
|
2. Download the core from https://gitlab.com/jeseibel/distant-horizons-core and extract into a folder called `core`
|
|
3. Open a command line in the project folder
|
|
4. Run the command: `./gradlew assemble`
|
|
5. The compiled jar file will be in the folder `fabric/build/libs/` and `forge/build/libs/`
|
|
|
|
**If in terminal:**
|
|
1. `git clone -b 1.18.X --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/jeseibel/minecraft-lod-mod.git`
|
|
2. `cd minecraft-lod-mod`
|
|
3. `./gradlew assemble` or `./gradlew build`
|
|
4. The build should be in `fabric/build/libs/` and `forge/build/libs/`
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Other commands
|
|
|
|
`./gradlew --refresh-dependencies` to refresh local dependencies.
|
|
|
|
`./gradlew clean` to reset everything (this does not affect your code) and then start the process again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Note to self
|
|
|
|
The Minecraft source code is NOT added to your workspace in an editable way. Minecraft is treated like a normal Library. Sources are there for documentation and research purposes only.
|
|
|
|
Source code uses Mojang mappings.
|
|
|
|
## Useful commands
|
|
|
|
Build only Fabric: `./gradlew fabric:assemble` or `./gradlew fabric:build`\
|
|
Build only Forge: `./gradlew fabric:assemble` or `./gradlew forge:build`\
|
|
Run the Fabric client (for debugging): `./gradlew fabric:runClient`\
|
|
Run the Forge client (for debugging): `./gradlew forge:runClient`
