01 / What it was

Before any computers went into the game, we asked an agent to install Minecraft with the most beautiful mods it could find: shaders, long view distance, a clean modern look.

It mostly worked on the first try. One mod left a blur, a kind of ghosting, along the far horizon. We fixed it one mod at a time until the picture was clean and everything else was as before.

02 / How it worked

  • A Fabric modpack for Minecraft 26.2, put together by an agent from one request.
  • By 16 Sep the instance held 72 mods and 11 shader packs, about 2.7 GB.
  • The ghosting showed up late in loading. The builder suspected the distant-terrain mod (Distant Horizons) and asked the agent to check the logs for warnings.
  • The same session then went looking for a mod that could run a computer inside the game.

03 / What we saw

A good-looking world made people want to stay in it. Later, when filming, the heavy visual effects changed how the in-game screens looked, so some shots went back to a plainer style.

04 / Where it led

This modded world is where the in-game computer, the pocket computer and the web monitors were first tried.
