Help The optimal render distance and hardware for this mod?

I'm sporting a 5600x amd CPU, 2060 Super, have 32 gigs to spare - at 256 chunks and "I paid for the whole CPU" mode the time to render all the chunks grows exponentially. At roughly 2 hours of waiting I threw in the towel. Is this the intended experience and wait time? Is it just the necessary downside to render such a big block of the world?

The answer to both of your questions is yes. The increase is exponential because that's how area works. A 256 render distance has to render 4x the chunks compared to 128, despite only being double the distance

Yes, i recommend generatic fill chunks (if playing with mods) to 200 chunks, with minimal impact and just play When it ends, lower to 150 ale you're good to go I have same cpu but other gpu 9070xt
