It's a big one!

Hello all, it's been a bit! (9 months, and almost 1,000 development hours since the last release.. neato.) 3.0.0 has been delayed time and time again, and the fact that this is a prerelease is indicative of the fact that it's still, unfortunately, not quite done yet. I'll cover the specific missing bits later on, but we're namely waiting on making sure Clockwork and our new foundational space mod (of which we've done too much custom worldgen to switch from), Cosmic Horizons, are updated, along with a snazzy new logo Valkyrien Skies update that should improve stability for a proper release. Why wait though? Mostly for stability as mentioned above, but that stability will enable our dedicated server to run especially smooth after some further testing, which is also where this prerelease comes in. We've only had a limited amount of testers available over the past few months, but to ensure that it succeeds properly, documenting and resolving as many issues and inconsistencies as possible is vital to ensuring Inquisitive is the best it can be!

If you can test or stumble across any issues or feature requests, make a github issue or go to the discord to write a ticket/ask about it in FAQ! We need all the community help we can get.

Enough preamble though, let's get into a (brief) synopsis of some of the reworks (the pack description, while currently unfinished and slightly out of date also explains quite a bit of the featureset)

• Revamped GUIS across the board
• Mix of Ad Astra & Cosmic Horizons space travel, integration with physics/vs through Starlance
• Boatloads of quality of life features
• Too many custom recipes to count,
• Ludicrous amounts of mod interop
• In-house retextures of plenty of items
• Ambiance is revised through textures and particles galore
• Custom planet worldgen with more planets to be added/structures over time
• Tons of integrated social-oriented features like radios, media players, chat systems
• Lore-integrated mechanics that target Inquisitive's unique flavor
• Documentation detailing many featuresets (due for updates!)
• Revamps of many vanilla mechanics to adapt to a modded environment and improve upon the base
• REI separated from over 200 pages of items into under 10 via item categories

Stay tuned for further updates in our discord! With the entire release of 3.0.0, we seek to:

• Have a 23/7 up with the most support for cultivated content, lore, and exploration
• Support Clockwork & improved space travel properly
• Boast updated and effective documentation that guides you through areas of unfamiliarity

Thank you to PlatonicNymph for generously providing server hosting, binary testing prowess, and significant emotional support through countless hours of debugging, most patient person ever

Thank you to Damik for having a great eye for mods, modlists, textures and encouraging me to become a better texture artist

Thank you to Loser for encouraging me to expand on the spookier bits of minecraft with deliberacy, and debugging, passion for development is always wonderful

Thank you to Melody for being a great source on lorewriting, moderation and dealing with creative burnout

Thank you to Cosbro for making the best inquisitive art ever and creative informing throughout it all

Thank you to Bas for writing ingame books like nobody else, we need that documentation now more than ever

Look forward to further updates soon! (I'd make some teasers but I felt the pack was better)

This will be the last major release before 3.0.0, but the server will still be up for a while! You'll know when the time is nearing for the reset (sometime this upcoming late spring) I'm working hard to perfect what I can and sweep up what's needed for a polished product.
