WestPED - Discover Nova’s Main Secret

WestPED is a Minecraft Forge 1.20.1 mod that continues the story of MyPED as a direct DLC.

You are thrown into an endlessly hot wasteland filled with harsh desert biomes, abandoned cities, forgotten stations, crashed ships, and western themed locations. Complete NPC quests, follow the main storyline, and uncover Nova’s secret.

The core reason to play WestPED is exploration and survival in a unique atmospheric desert tied directly to the MyPED lore.

Dimension Design

WestPED introduces a fully separate wasteland dimension built for long term survival. You may enable auto spawn and remain there permanently.

Caves exist, but they never contain ores. Progression relies on exploration: searching ruins, stations, ships, and cities for resources and rare loot.

The mod focuses heavily on visuals and atmosphere: winds, storms, biome music, visual effects, and a custom main menu.
