GregTech: Restored v0.10.0 — Public Beta

Release date: Friday, November 6, 2026 Minecraft 1.20.1 · Forge 47.4.28 · GregTech CEu Modern 7.5.3 · 134 mods

Welcome to the first public beta of GregTech: Restored! 🎉

The grid is dark. You start with your hands, flint and fire and work your way up to LuV, with rockets and new planets along the way. This is a beta, so things can still change before 1.0. Full 1.0 comes once LuV and the bees are polished.

The beta is available on CurseForge. A Modrinth version is planned for later.

Please start a new world and back it up often. Bug reports are very welcome! Please post them in the project's comments.

What's in the beta

• Fixes: removed four broken upstream recipes that could never craft anything (three Pam's foods whose result items don't exist in the mod, and a misspelled Cataclysm stair duplicate; the correct stair recipe still works) and gave three unused EMC/Eidolon compatibility blocks empty loot tables so they no longer cause load errors. Added Athena so Ender IO capacitor banks load their models.

• Cleaner quest book: all 11 chapters (Getting Started included) have been rearranged into tidier, circuit-board-style paths with fewer crossing lines. Only quest positions changed; all 258 quests, their tasks, rewards and progression are the same.

258 quests in 11 chapters

• Getting Started (34): flint, Tinkers' tools, the smeltery, your first iron and a first kitchen.
• Tips and Tricks (26, all optional): short tips worth knowing before they bite you.
• Black Start (44): before steam, before steel. Coke oven, steel, bronze, the steam age, Create and your first LV machines.
• LV: Power On (17): batteries, chemistry and the road to aluminium.
• MV: Aluminium Age (19): chips, oil and stainless steel.
• HV: Stainless and Stars (19): cleanrooms, big multiblocks and the Moon.
• EV: Titanium and Mars (13): quantum circuits, tungsten and the red planet.
• IV: Tungstensteel and Venus (28): platinum chemistry, the Assembly Line and hot planets.
• LuV: Ludicrous Voltage (18): LuV parts, real LuV power and another star.
• Arcane Alternatives (30, all optional): magic roads beside GregTech.
• Bees: Busy Little Miners (10, all optional): ore from bees, one tier at a time.

The big pieces

• GregTech first. Other mods' machines, storage and gear unlock with GregTech tiers, and ores can only be multiplied through GregTech ore processing. GregTech hazards and pollution are off.
• Tinkers' Construct and Create early on. Tinkers tools level up as you use them, GregTech metals work as Tinkers materials, and Create (with Greate) gives you a bulk-blasting path to wrought iron.
• Space. Ad Astra rockets and suits are built from GregTech parts: the Moon at HV, Mars at EV, Venus and Mercury at IV, and Glacio at LuV, each with its own ore veins.
• Magic, if you want it. Botania, Ars Nouveau, Blood Magic and Occultism are tied to GregTech tiers and never required.
• Bees, if you want them. Productive Bees give you a second way to get ore, from LV to LuV, built the GregTech way.
• Farming and food. Pam's HarvestCraft 2 adds about 100 crops, 50 fruit trees and several hundred foods, and more foods means more Spice of Life hearts.
• Exploration. The Twilight Forest (an MV dimension), new terrain and structures, bosses, and Apotheosis adventure loot.

Recent changes (latest beta build)

• New: Pam's HarvestCraft 2 (Crops, Trees, Food Core and Food Extended). Find wild gardens and fruit trees in newly explored land.
  • Kitchen tools like the Cutting Board, Pot, Saucepan, Skillet and Juicer are made with GregTech iron or copper plates. They never wear out.
  • Pam's seeds make Seed Oil in the GregTech Extractor, Pam's crops make Biomass in the Brewery, and GregTech salt works as salt in Pam's recipes.
  • Pam's paper-plant paper and coconut charcoal shortcuts are removed. Paper plants go through the GregTech mortar like sugar cane.
• New optional quests in Getting Started: Wild Gardens (find and break a wild garden) and Kitchen Tools (craft a Cutting Board and a Pot).
• New: IV and LuV chapters. 46 new quests, from tungstensteel and the platinum group line through the Assembly Line to naquadah, ending with a GregTech: Restored 1.0 quest.
• New planets. The Tier 3 rocket and Netherite Space Suit take you to Venus and Mercury at IV, and the Tier 4 rocket takes you to Glacio at LuV. The Jet Suit is an optional LuV goal. Each planet has new GregTech ore veins.
• New: Productive Bees (optional). Productive Bees' own resource bees are switched off, and bees now fit GregTech instead:
  • Use a GregTech Emitter on a normal bee to make a Worker Bee. Each higher tier of Worker takes the next tier of Emitter.
  • Use a block of raw ore on a Worker of the right tier to turn it into that ore's bee: iron, copper and tin at LV, up to naquadah at LuV.
  • Place blocks of that raw ore near the hive as its flowers. They don't get used up.
  • Combs only open in the GregTech Centrifuge at the bee's tier or higher, and they give crushed ore for your normal ore line.
  • Hive upgrades are made from GregTech parts.
  • Everything shows up in EMI.
• Magic updates. Gaia Pylons need IV parts, so the Gaia Guardian is now an IV fight. A new LuV boost grows crystal chips from Gaia Spirits. Occultism miner spirits are tier-gated: the Djinni (HV) digs overworld ores, the Afrit (EV) Moon and Mars ores, and the Marid (IV) Venus and Mercury ores. There are also 5 new optional magic quests.
• Fix: Create saws and mixers could make some cleanroom-only GregTech chip and wafer recipes without a cleanroom. Those recipes need a GregTech machine in a cleanroom again.
• Fix: Create presses no longer turn desh, ostrum or calorite ingots into plates (use the GregTech Bender), and Create crushing no longer gives extra raw planet ore.
• Fix: the Quarry Bee no longer copies Create's decorative ore stones or AE2 sky stone.

Known issues

• Three Pam's HarvestCraft recipes (caramel cupcakes, melon pie and honey muffin) are switched off because HarvestCraft never adds those foods, so the recipes could not work.
• In EMI, a few Tinkers' Construct recipe pages are a little limited. Some small cycle buttons only show the first option, a few text tooltips don't appear, and a handful of entity-melting and severing entries don't display. The Tinkers fake storage block casting page may also be missing. This was still the case in the Nov 7 clean-install test.
• Right after joining a new world the game may lag for a few seconds while recipe viewers finish loading.

Updating

Always back up your world before updating a beta. New ore veins only appear in parts of the world you haven't explored yet.
