War of The Worlds Mod
by Dashkk16
War of The Worlds adds a Martian invasion to Forge worlds, with alien forces that spawn across land, sky and water and that players must push back.
What it does
Players face Martian forces that arrive as an invasion, with several kinds of War Worlds adaptations and a Martian Red Weed that grows underground and spreads to nearby blocks. Research is the central system: it opens new items and gear, and a Diary item tracks tech levels. Crafting covers weapons drawn from several periods of both human and Martian past, so the tools a player uses change as the invasion escalates.
The mod is built for survival play, where the threat is constant and the outcome is uncertain. Underground living is supported with new blocks, along with new ways to collect wood and food below the surface. A configuration settings screen can lessen the difficulty for players who find the default too harsh, and the mod is tested for multiplayer, so servers can host it for friends or join a public server through the mod's title screen.
The mod requires Geckolib, which must be installed alongside it. War of The Worlds runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Builds exist for Forge only, across four release versions: 1.15.2, 1.16.4, 1.16.5 and 1.19.2. The latest file is 1.19-RC1 for 1.19.2, published 2023-08-27, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
