My PC isnt of powerful variety so I play on fairly low render distance of 256 blocks. And I already survived a lot of temporal storms in different worlds and didn't see Dave at first I thought he spawns at random but more storms I got less sure I was. So I started to experiment and turns out he doesn't spawn on render distance less than 384 blocks which is very unfortunate for me. Is there a way maybe to see big dude on lesser render distances? Couldn't find any mods or settings or commands in that regard
