Voxy Server Side
by XANTHA
With Voxy Server Side installed, a server sends distant terrain data to players so that Voxy can render it as soon as they log in.
What it does
Voxy Server Side sends Level of Detail (LOD) data from a server to connected players, and Voxy on the client uses that data to render terrain far beyond the area a player has explored. Players who join a multiplayer server can see rendered terrain stretching hundreds of chunks out, without first walking the map.
The mod runs on Fabric and NeoForge and is also available for Paper, Purpur, Folia and Sponge server platforms. Clients need the Fabric or NeoForge build whatever the server platform. On some Minecraft versions Voxy has to come from a fork or run through a separate compatibility layer. Voxy is a separate mod, and this project is not affiliated with its creator. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.
Key features
Distant terrain from servers
The server supplies LOD terrain that Voxy renders for players, covering areas they have not visited.
Long-range player view
Players can see others thousands of blocks away, and each client decides whether to share its own location.
Optional server-side storage
LOD data is stored on the server by default for performance, and the storage can be turned off.
Map export to a world map
Voxy data from the server can be written to a separate world map mod, and Voxy itself is not required for that.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Multiplayer arrival
A player joining a large server sees rendered terrain at once instead of exploring to fill in the map.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want players to see distant terrain on arrival, and players who use Voxy on those servers.
How it compares
LOD Server Support is open source under the MIT License, for Fabric and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 26.3, and is optional on either side. WynnLODGrabber is a Fabric client-side only mod, open source under the MIT License, for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, so only the client runs it.

What the author says
This mod/plugin sends Level of Detail (LOD) data directly from your server to connected players, allowing Voxy to render distant terrain. This lets players log into a multiplayer server and instantly see fully rendered terrain stretching out for hundreds of chunks, entirely skipping the need to explore the map first…
