About this video: So your on your Minecraft server, and no matter how hard you try, you cannot increase the render distance. It seems capped no matter what you set your local render distance to.
This is because in order to increase your render distance in a Minecraft server you actually need to change the view distance in the server properties on the server itself. Luckily, this video goes over exactly how to change the render distance on a Minecraft server letting you and your friends see as far as as you’d like on the server.
I do want to note that increasing the view distance on a server will cause the server to use more resources. You may need to increase the RAM dedicated to your server or get a better CPU to handle more chunks being loaded.
Nevertheless, how do you increase the render distance on a Minecraft server? Well, to do this, open up your main server directory. Then, locate the server.properties file. Open this file in a text editor and locate the “view-distance=” setting. By default, this will be set to 10.
The maximum you can set your view distance to on a Minecraft server is 32. So setting “view-distance=32” will allow you to use the max render distance in-game. If lag is a concern, 12 or 16 can be a good middle ground for render distance on a Minecraft server allowing a little bit of an increase while still trying to maintain some performance.
Make sure to save the server.properties then start your server. When you join your server again, you will be able to change your local render distance and see it increase to the view distance that you set on the server. If you set the view distance to 32 and set your render distance to 32, you will be able to use the maximum render distance.
