- (1) - Retroactively re-licensed by SpaceToad in 2016.
- (2) - Mostly public domain as per (1), but include contributions by hawkye and plashal whose licensing status is unknown.
- (3) - These may also be mostly public domain, however the source code history for these versions is lost.
- (4) - All licenses listed apply.
- (5) - 7.99.0 and later haven't been uploaded quite yet, so you'll instead need to go to either the BuildCraft Website or Curseforge to download them.
This project is the non-modular, or "combined" version of BuildCraft, with every module except Compat. If you want to download only specific modules then you'll need to go to these module projects:
- Core containing the wrench, gears, wooden engine, and a few other things that the other modules make use of. You always need this!
- Builders has the Architect Table, Builder, Filler, and a few related things for building in-world.
- Energy has Oil and Fuel, as well as Stirling and Combustion engines.
- Factory containing the pump, tank, mining well, autoworkbench, etc.
- Transport containing pipes!
- Silicon contains logic gates, a laser system and laser tables to make more advanced items.
- Robotics contains robots!
The following modules are always separate from BuildCraft itself, and as such serve the role of add-ons:
- Compat for enhanced compatibility with other mods.
