AoA3-Snapshot 8
AoA3-Snapshot 8 is the sixth testing snapshot for the 3.0 update. It was released on 9 December 2018.[1] It is the first snapshot for 3.0 that contains dimensions.
It can be downloaded here.
Issues in the snapshot can be reported on the Github issues page.
IMPORTANT: If the player is updating from a previous snapshot, then the player should delete their aoa3.cfg file before playing this snapshot. Failure to do so will likely cause the game to crash. It is also recommended that the player updates to the latest recommended version of forge for 1.12.2.
Disclaimer: The snapshot is intended to be a testing snapshot, it is by no means a beta.
Additions[edit | edit source]
Dimensions[edit | edit source]
All dimensions as of Tslat 1.1.3 have been added.
Dimension generation is mostly complete baring some bugs.
Mobs and NPCs are not present. Structures with NPCs in them do not have their NPCs as of this snapshot.
Dimension specific biomes such as Marshmallow Hills have been temporarily removed, due to biome ID limit issues and inter-biome borders. They will return in future versions.
Weather has been removed except clear.
Blocks[edit | edit source]
Added all statues and banners as of Tslat 1.1.3.
Added grey and golden statues for The Immortals, Baroness, MechBot, and Tyrosaur.
Added ornate statues - statues that are colored the same as the boss they correspond to.
Ornate statues are currently hidden from Just Enough Items and have no known crafting recipe. However, they can be obtained through /give: e.g. /give <player> aoa3:ornate_<bossName>_statue
Items[edit | edit source]
Added Arcworm spawn egg.
Entities[edit | edit source]
Added Arcworm.
Arcworms move at very high speeds and clone themselves on death in the snapshot. It has been confirmed that this is not intended for final release, and is only an easter egg for Snapshot-8.[2]
Changes[edit | edit source]
Dimensions[edit | edit source]
Trees in various dimensions generate more commonly. In some cases, the trees are cut off, leaving floating blocks in the air.
Dustopia has fewer trees.
Biomes other than the main dimension biome are not present.
Lunalus
Lunalus no longer has a bedrock/water layer.
Every planet in lunalus contains an orb inside it.
Creeponia
Creeponia has normal caves instead of its own caves. This is a confirmed to be unintentional.[3]
There are no ores or creep crystals in the creeponia underground. This is a confirmed bug.[4]
Dustopia
The primordial village structure in dustopia is now made of darkwash bricks.
Precasia
Precasia has less plants generating on the surface.
The Haven and Celeve
The islands of the haven and celeve are bigger than before.
Portals[edit | edit source]
Portals that generate in a dimension (that the player uses to leave the dimension) have some changes:
The size of the portal inside the frame was changed from 2x3 to 3x4.
Portals will now generate on top of the ground, instead of partially inside it.
All portals will now generate a platform under them if they spawn in mid-air or on the edge of a cliff. Portals will also try to not spawn at the edge of a cliff.
The Ancient Cavern and Immortallis portals have remained unchanged.
Exiting a portal now plays a sound.
The portal in Creeponia is now made out of Creeponian bricks instead of gravel.
When entering Runandor, a portal to the abyss generates instead of a Runandor one. This is a confirmed bug.[5]
Dimension exit portals now link to the dimension they came from. For instance if a Shyrelands portal is placed in the abyss and entered, exiting the shyrelands through the return portal will lead to the abyss.
Saving and reloading makes the game "lose" the dimension where it came from. In the above example, saving/reloading in the Shyrelands would result in the exit portal leading to the Overworld instead of back to the Abyss. This is a confirmed bug.
Blocks[edit | edit source]
Boss statues
Now have a new orientation in the inventory.
Now have brand new textures.
Grey and golden Skelepig, Skele-Hopper, Skeleman, and Skele-Elder statues removed.
Banners
Now have an item texture.
Now make a cloth sound when placed.
Now are fleshed with the walls that they are placed against.
If not placed against a wall, will have a stand to hold it up.
Several banners have texture changes.

Gem Bag
No longer drops dungeon tokens.
Chili
Moved to Advent Food tab.

AoA3-Snapshot 9
is the seventh testing snapshot for the 3.0 update. It was released on 24 December 2018,[1] and was re-uploaded on the same day to fix a crash caused by Innervation.[2]
It can be downloaded here.
Issues in the snapshot can be reported on the Github issues page.
IMPORTANT: If the player is updating from Snapshot 7 or older, then they should delete their .minecraft/config/aoa3.cfg file before playing this snapshot. Failure to do so will likely cause the game to crash.
It is also recommended that the player updates to the latest recommended version of Forge for 1.12.2 (which is 14.23.5.2768), and sets the logCascadingWorldGeneration option in the forge.cfg file to false to avoid excessive lag.
