Distant Horizons API

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.2 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.7 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.1–1.21.6 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.2 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.7 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.1–1.21.6 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.2 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.7 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.1–1.21.6 · NeoForge
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Don't Download Unless You Are A Developer

Putting this in your Mods folder will do nothing.


Developer Description

This jar includes the source code and classes needed to interact with Distant Horizons in a Minecraft and mod loader independent way. This jar should be used during development instead of the full Distant Horizons jar to prevent accidentally using unsafe internal methods.


The example projects on GitLab contains all the basics you need to get started using the API.
