Hello fellow MCreators,
Recently I started to organise my ideas on mod I planned for almost half of a year (as I discovered existence of MCreator).
It's going to convey my small steampunk universe I'm making for years (created mainly for books/game creations), but I thought it's perfect use for mod Minecraft was lacking as far as I was searching. Weapon mods are often OP, steampunk mods are too vanilla-unfriendly and aimed on different things that I wanted. Also I wanted to add some things that are crucial for Minecraft, but Mojang never tried to incorporate them (yet).
So, long story short, things I want to invent in WoB are:
- airships (structures on air across Overworld and End, being source of new items)
- firearm weapons (balanced and with various aesthetic & gameplay features)
- various other weapons I miss in vanilla (swords, ranged weapons and all between)
- some new mobs (mainly illagers travelling on airships)
- new herbs & small decorative stuff (plantable)
- new blocks in steampunk vein
- renewable sand (from herb called "sand veil")
- two tiers of armor/tools (lava and cirtain, being on respectively diamond and "above netherite" tiers in my universe)
There's already mod page on MCreator with latest version!
I will be happy to get your feedback - you can write it here, on mod page, or on Google Docs survey I made for that.
If you don't know how to use this mod, you can also look at wiki / guide I created. I hope you will enjoy it! More changes still to come :)
There is also bug tracker available, if you are interested in more in-depth vision of mod, or if you don't know if bug you encountered is known.
Those airships are super cool. Maybe add some flying entities around them for ambience. Great stuff!

Nice Ideas and thorough design!
Hello everyone!
New snapshot version is released today, with small change in my development principles. From now on, I will try my best to make more frequent updates as I realised that "big, rare updates" are really making me slow down and lose motivation. In the end, I am still trying to deliver only snapshots, it is obvious full v0.a11 update is enormous :>
But anyway, v0.a11s6 snapshot is out! It changes a lot, on both smaller and bigger parts of the mod, such as:
If political situation doesn't escalate, I have plans to release v0.a11s6b soon, providing config file for 1.16 version and Patchouli book, along some more fixes which I hope to make.
Thanks everyone for being here ^^
Nothing big here, except for... 1.17.1 and 1.18.2 ports for Wastelands!
Yes, you read correctly, I ported WoB the same day MCR got its 1.18.2 snapshot :3
Though a lot of issues occurred, so be careful using these versions - they are both a bit unreliable and it's better to make backup of your worlds than be sorry.
Also, on Tuesday there will be one year since I published the mod here. These ports were meant to be surprise for you all, so you can feel anniversary vibe, even a bit earlier ^^ I'm really thankful for all the joy, feedback, ideas.. simply for everything I got from MCreator - from great tool to make mods, through fun I had making and playing them, to community and friends which I met here. Thank you so so much!
Everyone.
Exactly one year ago, I published first version of Wastelands of Baedoor on MCreator site. Version which was really buggy and poor, but - Wastelands nevertheless!
I would never expect how much modding will change my life and artistic path since then. It was just project made to add things to Minecraft I missed. Turns out it brought me whole new universe: some sense of direction, pure joy of seeing all things I added come to life, escape in tougher times, finally - friends which are really dear to me.
I am really thankful to each one of you, for being here and your support. It means a lot and motivates me to continuously work on the mod, despite having some motivation drops from time to time.
Airship is really interesting symbol: it conveys freedom, journey, possibilities. Let it be symbol of this anniversary: taking us even further, to the unknown, beautiful lands of the future!
