Distant Raze is a Fabric modpack for Minecraft Java built to make far-off terrain look good. It centres on Distant Horizons, adds a shader and a set of performance mods, and runs on the client only.
Loaders and versions
- Fabric: Minecraft 1.20.4 to 1.21.11.
What's included
The creator names the mods that carry the look. Bliss Shader is the shader of choice because it currently works most reliably with Distant Horizons, though any shader that Distant Horizons supports will do.
- Distant Horizons for long-range terrain rendering.
- Bliss Shader, or another shader that Distant Horizons supports.
- Falling Leaves, First-person Model, Visuality and a physics mod for visual detail.
- Vanilla Refresh, named among the mods the pack needs to look good.
- Further performance mods. The creator claims the strongest performance among modpacks.
How to install Distant Raze
The pack installs through the Modrinth App, or through Prism Launcher and other launchers that read .mrpack files. The launcher fetches the listed mods and Fabric for you, and the modpack install guide walks through the import.
- 1.Open the pack on Modrinth and install it in the Modrinth App, or take the .mrpack file for Prism Launcher.
- 2.Let the launcher import the pack and add the mods and the Fabric loader.
- 3.Set memory to 8 GB in the modpack's settings.
The trade-off is the memory allowance above. No source repository is linked, so the creator's mod list is the only description of the contents.
