About this project

What does ChunkFlow add?

✨ Features

  • **🔭 Extended View Distance on Any Server:**
    Playing on servers that force a tiny 4 or 6 chunk view distance (Aternos, large SMPs)? ChunkFlow intelligently intercepts chunk unload packets and retains static terrain data in memory up to **32 chunks**, giving you a vast, beautiful horizon without putting any strain on the server.
  • **⚡ Predictive Velocity Streaming (Elytra / Mounts):**
    When traveling at high speeds (flying with Elytra, riding horses/boats, or with speed effects), ChunkFlow tracks your velocity vector and proactively prioritizes terrain meshing in your forward travel cone, preventing void dropouts and pop-in.
  • **🛡️ 100% Client-Side & Ban-Safe:**
    Purely visual chunk caching! Does not tick redstone or simulate entities on distant chunks. Works out-of-the-box on Vanilla, Paper, Spigot, Purpur, and Fabric servers without requiring any server-side plugins or mod installs.
  • **📊 Real-Time HUD Widget:**
    A clean, non-intrusive status overlay in the top-right showing your active view distance, number of cached chunks, and high-speed streaming indicator (⚡).
  • **⌨️ Flexible In-Game Commands & Hotkey:**
  • Press **F8** to instantly toggle ChunkFlow on/off (rebindable in Controls).
  • Full suite of /chunkflow commands.

⚙️ Commands & Controls

  • **/chunkflow** — Displays current status, active view distance, cached chunk count, and streaming speed.
  • **/chunkflow on** — Enables ChunkFlow.
  • **/chunkflow off** — Disables ChunkFlow and clears cached chunks.
  • **/chunkflow distance <4-32>** — Sets your custom extended render distance (default: 16).
