The 7.99.12+ versions of Buildcraft for MC 1.12.2 and are early alphas. They are ment for testing but not for survival usage.
A backport to 1.10.2 is not currently planned. The reasons for this are outlined here, here, here, here, here, here and here.. Asking us is unlikely to make us reconsider - however, BuildCraft is open source and you're welcome to do it yourself if you really need a 1.10 version.

Pipes
The major feature of BuildCraft is the pipes. Pipes are used to transport items, fluids, and mechanical energy between inventories/machines. There are many different types of pipes all with unique functions, including Wooden, Cobblestone, Stone, Sandstone, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Emerald and Obsidian. Pipes can be combined with Pipe Sealant to allow them to make Fluid Pipes that can transport liquids or with Redstone to make Kinesis Pipes to allow them to transport mechanical energy.
BuildCraft 7 is a great BuildCraft release, bringing additions and improvements in almost every area of the mod. Here are some highlights:
- Modularization is back, for those pack developers who need a smaller subset of our functionality.
- A fresh, new look by CyanideX! (Excluding robots. Those have, sadly, been delayed - due to time issues - but will make it to a later Stable release.)
- Optimizations to fillers, builders, pipes, robots and other parts of the mod.
- Pipes: round robin sorting in diamond pipes, weighting in diamond fluid pipes, massive stripes pipes powers, improved pipe rendering and colors!
- Recipes: more expensive lists, less expensive pipe plugs
- Silicon: New Assembly Table and Integration Table, ACT replaced by a CraftPacket-inspired Packager+Stamper system
- Factory: Tanks get comparators now!
- Robotics: New Zone Planner, improved trigger/action logic, fancy robot animations.
- Paintbrushes! For some reason.
- Tons of other little improvements and additions that would take up too much space.
BuildCraft 7 has some changes you might want to watch out for:
- Generally, your world and map will work fine and upgrade properly bar a few exceptions. However, downgrading is impossible.
- If you have any custom config options, the config format and filename changed for both BC and Compat, so look into those.
- The Quarry is now in the Builders module, as opposed to BC 3.x and below when it was in the Factory module.
- Robots now only pull items and fluids out from wooden or emerald pipes.
- Drop Items in Pipe has been combined with Accept Items.
- The Crafter robot has been removed as it was deemed to be useless.
- Flower harvesting from Robots has been removed due to bugs it caused.
- Lava in the Combustion Engine doesn't burn (!?) anymore. Use the Stirling Engine.
- The Advanced Crafting Table is deprecated, but not removed yet. You might want to upgrade your setups.
- You can no longer put Lists inside Lists. Listception.

When will the official release for 1.12.2 be finished
if i was to use this mod for forge 1.10.2 what version of this mod do i need
In reply to DerppyPokemon:
There is no such official version.
In reply to DerppyPokemon:
There is none. read the top of this page about 1.10.2 version.
Can you please add images of the mod because I think people will enjoy that.
Will there be a version for 1.14.2?
In reply to yaasqueeen:
Yes, eventually - I'm currently working on porting BC to 1.14/fabric. (See https://mod-buildcraft.com/pages/roadmap.html)
In reply to AlexIIL:
Nice thanks for the reply
You can make a translation for "Heavy Oil", etc. in Russian localization?
And more liquids used to be less, it seems to me. Why so complicate? I can not find information about this. BuildCraft I use only for the sake of a quarry, and it turns out too much superfluous.
Can you add compatibility with pipes from the mod "Thermal Dynamics"? They're much better than yours. Quarry does not connect to them.
So the refinery is gone and now I have no idea how to make my beloved gasoline... and every video I find is a lacking in information sexy voice contest for which I want to ram my head into a wall lol...
how do I make fuel plez?
Thank.
In reply to methwalker:
It is still there. It is now called a distiller. Should have jut checked the items in creative.
In reply to decom70:
AHhh ok, cool. Thanks, very much appreciated.
I rarely touch creative mode except to test mods, but I had no idea what to look for.
Thanks for writing back, and sorry to waste your time.
Does this mod add any new ores? I already have a world made and I don't want to have to generate a new to get the new ores (if there are any).
In reply to jiffypeanutb:
Only oil - which generates in large spouts so it should be pretty obvious if you find any. If you haven't pregenerated your world then you should just need to explore new chunks to find some?
In reply to AlexIIL:
I had already made a world and ive been playing in it for awhile, but I haven't explored too much. Will oil generate in some of the chunks I haven't explored or will I have to regenerate part of my world somehow?
In reply to jiffypeanutb:
Oil will generate in chunks that haven't already been generated. (So if you've used a mod like chunk pregenerator you'd be out of luck). But you should find oil if you teleport to some random co-ordinate like X = 1258937
