Plugin BetterView

BetterView, Extended Server View Distance

BetterView is a high performance Paper plugin and Fabric mod that lets a Minecraft server show players a much larger area without relying solely on the standard view distance system. It uses asynchronous player processing, direct chunk reads from disk, optimized chunk tracking, and cached chunk data to improve distant terrain delivery.

Administrators can set view distance, generation and sending limits for each dimension, while chunk batches help prevent network overload. Lightweight anti X ray support is also available for extended chunks. At BoxToPlay, we recommend BetterView for expansive exploration with controlled resource usage.
