Chunk load/render distnace

Post by lmlPEZlml »

Hi guys, currently the render distance is limited to 15 on my minecraft server (basic)

In 1.8 I believe I should be able to set it as high as 32. I'm asking because I have an adventure map which is *huge* and requires some redstone to work at quite some distance.

Can I override this limit?

(inb4 "but performance", i know :)

As far as I know the server itself is still limited to 15, though you can change your client to 32 for a local server/single player server. I would not recommend doing this though as it's going to be extremely intensive on your client.

So you need chunks loaded while you are away from them?

Have you considered a mod that has chunk loaders included?

Sorry I have only used them with the TPPI modpack, and haven't played in a long time, so I can't really give any recommendations.

Normally I'd recommend ChickenChunks or Immibis's Dimensional Anchors, however neither appear to be updated to 1.8.
