What it is

  • Runs inside the game

    Sunstead is a DLL library. It loads into the Minecraft process and runs alongside it.

  • Made for Bedrock

    The mod targets Bedrock Edition for Windows, not the Java version.

  • Open source

    The OpenSunstead source is public at github.com/WinterBedrock/OpenSunstead. Read it and build it yourself.

How it works

Bedrock add-ons can only do what the game allows. A DLL mod works at the level of the game process itself, so it can reach further.

  1. Get the DLLDownload it, or build it from the OpenSunstead source.
  2. Start Minecraft BedrockThe regular Windows version.
  3. Load the DLL into the gameThe library attaches to the running process and the mod starts working.

The mod changes the game from the inside, so it matters that you know what you run. That is why the code is open: anyone can check it.
