Wasteland Reborn 2.0

by stoshkaYT

Wasteland Reborn 2.0 for NeoForge 1.21.1 introduces a separate world type in which water and plant cover are scarce, suited to survival runs with a harsh, zombie-apocalypse tone.

What it does

Installing the mod lets a world be created with the wasteland world type, set through the level-type option in server.properties. Worlds generated this way have scarce water and grass, so survival runs on a different footing from a standard world. A config setting governs how frequently the wasteland's structures generate, so the density of those ruins can be tuned.

Both the server and every player need the mod, because the environment is client and server. Players who enjoy classic wasteland play, or who combine the mod with other difficulty-increasing mods, will find that the apocalypse theme makes survival noticeably harder. The author plans addons for Create and Create Aeronautical, though none are released yet. Wasteland Reborn 2.0 is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, and its only published build targets 1.21.1 on NeoForge.

Key features

  1. New world type

    A wasteland world type with limited water and grass is selected through the level-type setting.

  2. Configurable structures

    Structure spawn rates are adjustable in the config, so server owners can tune how common the wasteland's structures are.

  3. Apocalypse difficulty

    The mod makes survival harder and simulates an apocalyptic setting, with the difficulty raised further when other difficulty mods are present.

  4. Planned Create addons

    The author has announced addons for Create and Create Aeronautical, which are not yet part of the release.
