Enhanced View Distance Mod 1.4.2. Broville Note that you can still see the pick axe guy on the mountain from clear on the other side normally you wouldn’t even be able to see the ships and docks note the awesome clouds
Nighttime screenshot to show better clouds, obstructing the stars
All the View distances increases you can now Toggle in game, the “Tiny” view distance in game becomes what Vanilla’s “Far”
So “Far” is now double more view, Normal is 50% more, Short is 25% more, Tiny is the Exact same as Vanilla’s Far.
THIS MOD PRETTY MUCH WILL HAVE STABILITY ISSUES WITHOUT A BIGGER HEAP SIZE SET/ OR 64BIT JAVA INSTALLED!!!
HERE IS THE LINK TO DOWNLOAD 64BIT JAVA, ANY COMPUTER WITH 4gigs+ ram and a 64BIT VARIANT OF WINDOWS SHOULD BE USING THIS 64bit JRE
BY DEFAULT MOST PEOPLE’s COMPUTERS ARE INSTALLING THE WRONG VERSION! IT DETERMINES THE VERSION ON ORACLES SITE BASED ON THE WEB BROWSER, NOT THE OS, MOST BROWSERS ARE 32BIT!
MAKE SURE YOU UNINSTALL THE OLD ONE FIRST!
