In the Year of 1337, an apocalypse hit Minecraftia. The sky became dark, the grass died away, forest fires became rampant, and the rivers ran dry. The only ones left alive are the creatures of the night, and one human, trying to survive.

That human is you.

The Wasteland Mod v0.8

DryHearts Wasteland Server! Recommended! The topic for it is here:
http://www.minecraft.../#entry12216853




Basically this mod is an edit to the original terrain generation. It generates a fallout/wasteland/apocalypse themed map. This includes:

-No more grass.
All of the grass blocks in the world are replaced with dirt, all the tall grass has turned into dead shrubs. Shrubs now also grow on dirt. Yes, this means no more passive mobs spawn. I'm looking into ways for you to get the passive mob loot. Maybe through dungeons?

-Changes to trees.
Trees have a much lower spawn rate. If a tree does spawn it is more likely to be a big tree then a little tree, and it will have no leaves at all(Unless its at an Oasis, see below). See how long your wood supplies last when you can't grow trees.

-No pumpkins, reeds, or flowers.
Pretty self-explanatory. They don't spawn anymore.

-No oceans.
No more giant oceans of water for unlimited water supplies. You can however get water from little springs (moving water).

-Changed sky color.
The sky is now a darker red-ish color.
-Randomised Oasis!
They say that you must bear the worst of the storm to find the eye. These Oasis are located in deserts, and are small 4x4 squares of grass with a tree, water, and some randomised tall grass and flowers. Use these to help you survive!

-New ruined houses
Now there is a random chance of a ruined house spawning in the world. Think of it as a dungeon with less loot and no spawner. These are completely random and contain things to help you survive.

-Modified dungeons
Dungeons have been modified to act more like fallout shelters. Things like saplings, buckets of water, and planks have been added to the chests. There are also naturally occuring beds inside next to the spawner. (*Underlined things represent items that you can't get anywhere else*)

Mutated Mobsv0.5 [1.7.3]
This is an addon that changes the regular mobs to be harder then they currently are. As of right now, zombies move faster and creepers have twice the explosion power. The other regular mobs will be added in to this addon as time goes on. Because it is so small right now, it has a direct mediafire link.

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SMP PATCH

Bonemeal Addon [1.7.3]
This is a very small addon that makes it so bonemeal will turn dirt into grass. Because its so small it has a direct mediafire link.

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE SMP PATCH

Better Than Wolves Compatibility Patch
This small set of files will allow Better Than Wolves and Wasteland to work with eachother. Simply install modloder, Better Than Wolves, Wasteland, and then this patch(not necessarily in that order, however the patch must come after installing BOTH mods).

Finite Liquid Compatibility Patch [1.7.3]
This is one file that will make this mod and finite liquid compatible. After installing The Wasteland, install Finite Liquid(it also requires modloader and preader for it to work, beaware). Then after those 4 things are installed, place this file inside the jar and you'll be set.

NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE SMP PATCH

Warning: This is not a modloader mod. You must paste these files into your jar directly. It should be compatible with modloader mods that do not edit chunk generation, however.

Compatibility:

Not compatible with the Biospheres mod as far as I know.
All worlds generated with this mod will work with vanilla minecraft, however if you explore outside of the already generated area all the land will follow regular land generation.

Installing:
Surival Singleplayer:
1. Navigate to your .minecraft folder. For me its at: c:\users\<myusername>\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft.
2. Open up your bin folder.
3. Open up the minecraft.jar using a program like winrar.
4. Drag the .class files inside of the Wastelandv0.5 folder into your minecraft.jar
5. Delete the META-INF folder inside the minecraft.jar
6. Launch Minecraft and start a new world(or use an old one if you want all new chunks that are generated to be wasteland).

Survival Multiplayer(Vanilla Server):
1. Navigate to the folder containing your minecraft-server.jar
2. Open up the server.jar using a program like winrar.
3. Drag the .class files inside of the WastelandMultiplayerv0.5.5 folder into your minecraft-server.jar
4. Launch the server.jar! All new terrain generated will be Wasteland!


Upcoming Updates:

-A stand alone add-on that will feature new blocks and mobs to help fit with the world. This will include things like eradiated material that you can craft into lasers, mutated mobs, and so on. (ETA unknown, soonish probably).

-A tool that allows you to generate a map using this mod with set sizes, perfect for SMP.

-Making it SMP compatible.

If you have any suggestions or ideas for this mod, please don't hesitate to tell me

[Amphios]

Look's funny to play, I'll try it out on single player a bit later.

[MrKillerofallpeople]

Seems to have ALOT of potential. Stick with it, okay. Also, try to add a way of getting wood, or at least a replacement for it because you need a decent amount of wood(or something similar) to get by, and by the looks of it the wood shown in those pictures probably won't cut it.

[RaaZr]

Look's Cool

[DanCraft]

Wow looks fun! But is it in the whole world or just in certain areas?

[Donixs]

I'd love to use it -IF- there was an option to choose your generation method or the default generation method.

If there is, it'd be best to put it as a feature on the original post. Just a suggestion.

Thank you. I am definitely looking into the tree amounts, I've been playing around trying to find a good number for a few days now.

As long as you have the mod installed, the entire world will be a wasteland.

Thanks, I'll look into adding that. Do you mean like an option in the pause menu?

[Cowsgomoo!]

WOW!
But, you should make it like a different world, like you need to make a portal to go to the wasteland or something...
Maybe a portal made out of.... Mossy Cobblestone? ?

[MinerMarcus2k9]

try to get nandonalt to let you use "cactus craft" cause that would be kool

[MangoFlames]

so if i install this mod and play on my save it won't ruin it?

Oo that's an interesting idea, I'll look into maybe adding that as optional in case someone wants to play on a preexisting save.

Although I love cactus craft, the practical uses of including in my mod aren't very many. Plus I'm sure nandonalt has enough to worry about without a rookie modder pestering him to use his code. However, I definately recommend the mod for anyone who likes cacti to have a use

MangoFlames, on 17 June 2011 - 10:11 PM, said:

Nope, it won't corrupt the save, however it won't convert any of the land you've already explored to a wasteland. If you leave the explored area then it will start generating wasteland.

Zombie Apocalypse lol

You should make a strange new resource eg metors that you can make into tools

[MattMellander]

Good job man, downloading now!

[huwevans11]

Yeah. It's a cool mod. Maybe for a future version you add something? Like maybe monsters can spawn during the day (sky is dark and it IS the apocalypse)? Or elite monsters? Like zombies with swords, or creepers with a higher explosion? Keep up the good work, man.

I plan on making a stand alone addon that will add things like new ores and mutated mobs Thanks.

Yep, creating completely new content is planned. I want to create a stand alone mod/addon that CAN be paired with this, but this terrain generator doesn't require it incase you just want vanilla mc with weird generation. Then that addon can have mutated creepers and fast zombies and the like.

[T'Flok]

Just the thing what I was looking for!!! Now I can DEEPLY enjoy the Last Days texture pack.

*listens to fallout music*

EDIT: Forgot to give ya one

Kinda. I mean like when you start a new world, you get a menu that gives you the option to choose the Default Minecraft Terrain Generation, or your mods Terrain Generation.

Yeah that would probably work better then the pause menu.

My projects for tomorrow are working on adding this in as optional (having the ability for regular minecraft terrain generation), and special add-on mobs like mutated zombies and the like.
