Minecraft, but I soar through 1,000,000,000 blocks with NO LAG (Music Sync)

Have you ever wondered what it would look like to fly through a Minecraft world at high speed with a 256 chunk render distance and everything loads in instantly? I've been obsessed with making this happen, and I've finally found a way.

How long did it take me to make this video?
Keyframing the camera and music sync elements took me about a week. The recording was the hard part. I just can't resist doing 4k 60fps haha. At 256 chunk render distance, my game was crashing even with 50 Gb of ram allocated. I think there may be a memory leak in my mod somewhere, or the bobby mod is unable to unload chunks fast enough when I am moving my player so quickly (I did set the unload timer to 0 sec in the config but that didn't help). At an average of 12 seconds to render each frame, it took about 40 hours of total render time on my PC. Setting an alarm to check on the render throughout the night to see if it crashed made me feel like I'm a parent checking in on a newborn.

I did some back of the napkin math on how many blocks are in this world, and I think it's actually a lot more than 1 billion. A minecraft .mca file is composed of 32x32 chunk regions. The entire world size is 3.68 Gb. Assuming the largest .mca file in my folder was saturated with chunks, I was able to estimate there are 292116 chunks in this world. Then if we use 98,000 blocks per chunk (including air blocks), we arrive at a total of 2.86 x 10^10, or 28,600,000,000 blocks. This is an amplified world, but a good percentage is a lot of air. I think it's safe to say at least 1 billion regular blocks haha. Let me know in the comments if you know a more accurate way I can determine the non-air block count!

Mods Used:
Huge shoutout to the Bobby Mod. Without it the render distance in video would not have been possible with shaders. Try it out for yourself here: beta.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/bobby
My music sync mod: (Sorry not public yet, it's still very buggy)

    Killing it yet again! I really liked that this one wasn't about syncing up minecarts or crazy contraptions. It was just soaring through the world and appreciating the beauty of what Minecraft can naturally create. I had chills during the whole section from 3:39 to the end. Fantastic job as always!

    I really like the lanterns as markers. The less frequent markers is really good makes it better imo
  • @sirandy105
    The fact that there's no other noises so you can put this on loop is what I like the most
  • Absolutely Amazing Felt like one of those dreams you never want to end

    Flew 1000000000 blocks with a shader with no lag AND synced to the music. This is why I subscribe, each video blows my mind.
  • @Snow-sf1nh
    Okay this is à masterpiece, way to beautiful
  • @M_W_K
    Every last frame felt like it could be hung up as a poster. Amazing work!

    You have no idea how much this song resonated with me when watching this. Along with the absolutely stunning visuals and beautiful scenery, it just hit!
  • @jamesmnguyen
    The amount of work DoodleChaos puts in each video is nothing to sleep on.

    Great video as always! Some songs from Flume would be very cool to synch, here are my favourites: - Collarbones - Turning (Flume Remix) - Slugger - You & Me (Flume remix) - Heater - Escape - 3 (yes that's the name of the song) - I can't tell
