adjustable render distance

[CStone6]

I was messing around in the code, and I saw on line ~611
renderDistance = (float)(32 * 32 >> (mc->options->viewDistance));
And if you change this, you get an adjustable render distance. I got ~40 fps with 128 *128, and I got 140 at 5 *5. Also other things I changed might have affected preformace but not that I noticed

i dont know much about c++ but I think it would be straightforward to link it to buttons or sliders at some point. You would have to look for where the chunks are generated and change the distance because it only renders a small bubble around you, it like voxy where it only shows chunks that were generated. Hope this information is helpful for your guys' endeavors

i'd love to see a setting like this, this would have a lot of use especially for lower end systems

I'm gonna mess around and see if I can do it.

For anyone who wants to take this up sliders and stuff seem to be in XUI_SettingsGraphics.cpp

You sure you and I have the same thing? Because I see that line nowhere in that file.

Also: Supply full PATHS so people don't need to go digging for a specific file.

It's at line 618 in file ./Minecraft.Client/GameRenderer.cpp for those wondering.

wondering if anyone knows, but I tried to add a slider to the graphics menu, and some config is in a Loaded iggy movie SettingsGraphicsMenu1080.swf and it doesn't let you add a menu item without editing, and i dont know how to. Any ideas to get past that?

JPEX Flash De-compiler should help with that I believe. The free version is adequate.

My bad, I forgot to say the file. It is Minecraft.Client\GameRenderer.cpp ~618

[CStone6]

Can someone help? I try to edit the SettingsGraphicsMenu1080.swf, but none of the edits take effect. And when I remove all of the SettingsGraphicsMenu*.swf from the directory, it still loads the file.

I can say loadMovie() is declared in UIScene.cpp but with my limited knowledge, i dont know what to do from there.

Fixed by PR #675 — adds a render distance slider to the Graphics menu.
