Extending Render Distance

Slyde Mod removes the slider cap on render distance, allowing you to load chunks far beyond the normal limit for a wider view of your world.

How to Increase Render Distance

1. Open mod settings or your game options

2. Locate the render distance or view distance field

3. Enter a higher value than the standard maximum

4. Apply changes and return to your world

Performance and Stability

  • Higher render distance dramatically increases CPU and GPU load
  • Very high values (50+ chunks) may cause severe lag or stuttering
  • Your frame rate will drop noticeably; adjust gradually and monitor performance
  • Extremely high render distance can cause memory issues and crashes
  • Start at modest increases (20–30 chunks) and test before going higher
  • Reduce other graphics settings (shadows, particles) if you want extreme render distance without crashing
  • Useful for scenic screenshots or building large projects, but not practical for normal gameplay
