About this Mod

Thanks for 1000+ downloads - you guys are awesome!

⚠️IMPORTANT⚠️

This mod requires Fabric API.

Due to vanilla limitations, you must install Bobby, in order to set render distances past 12 chunks with the command.


Mod Description

Ever just wanted to set your render distance instantly from chat? Then you came to the right place!

Render Distance Command (also published on Curseforge) is a client-sided Minecraft mod for the Fabric Loader, that adds the
/renderdistance command, which sets your current render distance to what ever you want (2 chunks min, 128 chunks max). Here's an example command for setting your render distance to 20 chunks:

/renderdistance 20

Also, as of v1.0.1 of the mod, there is a new command that allows you to see the currently set render distance. Here's how you would type it in in chat to get your current render distance:

/getcurrentrenderdistance

Frequently Asked Questions

Render Distance Command server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.3). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Render Distance Command compatible with fabric?

Render Distance Command officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.3, 1.19.3. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Render Distance Command – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Render Distance Command consumes the most tick time.
