DH Toggle is a tiny client-side Fabric mod that adds a normal, remappable Minecraft keybind for toggling Distant Horizons LOD rendering.
The default key is F6.
Download the latest JAR from the Releases page.
For v1.0.0, place dh-toggle-1.0.0.jar in your Minecraft instance's mods directory.
Distant Horizons includes a debug rendering toggle, but that debug keybind did not respond correctly in the Minecraft 26.3 setup that prompted this project.
DH Toggle registers a normal Fabric/Minecraft keybinding instead and toggles Distant Horizons through its public API.
The original use case was working around an underground rendering artifact seen with Distant Horizons and Complementary Shaders while keeping shaders enabled for cave lighting and glowing ores.
Press F6 to toggle Distant Horizons LOD rendering:
- Distant Horizons LOD rendering turns OFF
- Press F6 again to turn it back ON
- Normal Minecraft rendering remains unchanged
- Shader packs remain enabled
- Distant Horizons remains loaded
- A chat message confirms the new DH rendering state
The keybind appears under:
Options -> Controls -> Key Binds -> DH Toggle
and can be reassigned like any normal Minecraft control.
