Better Render Distance Mod changes how the game loads the world around you to boost your frame rate. In the base game, the loaded chunks form a blocky cylinder shape that loads areas you cannot even see. This mod fixes that by turning the loaded area into a perfect sphere. By cutting out the extra corners, your computer does less work. You get smoother gameplay and less lag, especially if you play on an older computer.

Features:
- Circular Horizontal Distance: The mod loads chunks in a true circle around you instead of a square shape with rounded edges.
- Spherical Render Shape: It stops loading unneeded chunks high above or far below you.
- Speed Boost: You get a faster game speed and fewer frame drops while playing.
- Lightweight Code: It runs quietly in the background without adding extra heavy tasks.
- Works With Sodium: It links directly into Sodium’s culling system to run even faster.
Configuration:
- Find the options inside the Sodium Video Settings menu.
- Turn the chunk loading changes on or off whenever you want.
- Pick from Auto Vertical Scale presets like Performance, Balanced, or Quality.
