Java Edition Classic 0.30

0.30 refers to two versions of Classic released on November 10, 2009. The only difference between these two versions is that one version is in Creative mode, while the other is in Survival mode. Server versions 1.10 and 1.10.1 were released with these versions. 0.30 is the last version of Late Classic, and the final version of Classic to be released.

A 2011 recompiled version of the Creative variant is available in the launcher, mislabeled as 0.30_01c, and is a renewed version of 0.30 Creative. Both have identical gameplay.

Blocks

 * TNT
 * Hitting an active TNT block defuses it and lets it be picked up.
 * Explosions no longer produce smoke particles.

General

 * Loading and saving

 * Removed online saving for free accounts.
 * There is now a message stating that players need to upgrade to Minecraft Premium when trying to access save menu on free account.

Fixes

 * TNT no longer disappears upon being hit.

Indev development
There were many development versions for Indev labelled "0.30" that were never released/only released for private testing, and included features that would be included later in the game.
