Latest versions

Galacticraft 3 is officially released on Sunday, November 9 2014 - no longer in beta!

It is recommended to use the latest version which has additional features and the latest bugfixes:

Version 3.0.9.294 (recommended) is a major playability update. It adds the following:

  • New optional Quick Mode config to play with double compressed metal production, meaning you can build Galacticraft items and blocks with half the regular amount of resources (1/4 the usual amount for building rockets)
  • New optional Hard Mode config with a list of tweaks to make the game more challenging
  • Improved freefall motion on Space Stations - it's a little easier to move around in survival mode (except in Hard Mode where it's fractionally harder than before)
  • Landing animation when you land from freefall onto a surface you can walk on
  • Evolved mobs adjust their jump according to the gravity - in low gravity, they don't jump so hard so they stay closer to the ground (and if anyone makes a high gravity planet in future, they will jump harder, meaning they can still jump up 1 block)
  • Evolved Zombie, Evolved Skeleton, Evolved Spider, Evolved Creeper now drop rare drops, some of them pretty nice - see each one's wiki page for details. Bring on those space mob grinders!
  • New texture for Asteroid rock - it should help with the low visibility issues in the Asteroids dimension
  • Fixed a few issues with Sun, Moon and stars visibility in orbit and in the Asteroids.

Version 3.0.8.269 adds these fixes:

  • Fixes the Space Race flag image saving issues on servers
  • Stops oil burning and fuel explosions if no oxygen is present
  • Burning mobs, players and arrows now work correctly in space dimensions - will burn if inside sealed spaces or oxygen bubbles
  • The Methane Synthesizer will not fill with CO2 on Mars if it is inside an oxygen bubble
  • The Coal Generator can now burn a Block of Coal as well as regular Coal

Version 3.0.8.266 improves stability on servers, restores compatibility with Aether II mod, improves compatibility with Buildcraft oil (all the Galacticraft oil in the world will not now be lost if you install Buildcraft on an existing map), and makes pools of oil flammable and pools of Fuel liable to explode if there is fire nearby. Also adds a config to allow conversion losses when converting energy between Galacticraft and other mods.

Version 3.0.8.262 adds around 20 different stability improvements and bugfixes, including issues caused by other mods using outdated Buildcraft API or RF API. Also better support for Galacticraft Add-Ons with planets with breathable atmospheres.

Version 3.0.7.256 adds compatibility with Gravestone and OpenBlocks/Grave mods for inventory saves on death; also many bugfixes - Sealable Oxygen Pipes are now working.

Version 3.0.6.250 adds compatibility for the newest version 1.0.2 of RF API (used by latest versions of Thermal Expansion and MFR)

Version 3.0.6.249 improves compatibility with EnviroMine and Railcraft, and a couple of small bugfixes
