Bobby is a Minecraft mod which allows for render distances greater than the server's view-distance setting.

The Province of Wynn at 96 chunks render distance

It accomplishes this goal by recording and storing (in .minecraft/.bobby) all chunks sent by the server which it then can load and display at a later point when the chunk is outside the server's view-distance.

Optionally, it can also use an existing single player world to load in chunks which the server has never sent before. To make use of this feature, simply rename the world folder (not the name of the world! the name of its folder!) to "bobby-fallback".

Bobby automatically reloads its config file when it is changed. For an in-game config screen, install ModMenu and ClothConfig.

  • Add support for servers with multiple identically-named worlds (e.g. proxies) (#72)
Note: Must be enabled in config.
When enabled, a new local cache is started on each world change. If there are enough chunks with similar content in two caches, they will automatically be merged.
This does mean that you may need to walk around a little before Bobby loads in cached chunks if there is little identifying information in your world (e.g. flat worlds).
You may need to delete your existing cache if it is comprised of multiple worlds to prevent Bobby from merging into it.
