The third version of Minecraft Infdev was released on March 13, 2010.

Additions

• Re-implemented the daylight cycle, but its duration is shorter than it was in Indev.
  • One cycle lasts around 16 minutes. Both daytime and nighttime are 8 minutes long.
• Added working lights.
• Re-added dynamic lighting.

World boundary

• Now exists at 32,000,000 blocks.
  • The stone wall "far lands" are inaccessible without the use of modification as a result.

Changes

• Faster sky brightness re-calculation.
• The player spawns with more items when creating a new world: 999 glass blocks, 999 planks, 999 torches, 999 pairs of flint and steel, 999 diamond shovels, 999 diamond pickaxes, 999 lava source blocks, and 999 water source blocks.
• Diamond tool durability has been increased from 257 to 513.
• The game now keeps a cyclic buffer of near chunks in memory, so it no longer runs out of memory when players walk for a long distance.
  • However, the game does not yet save anything to the disk, so players lose data from chunks they unload.
• Pressing F now reloads chunks too instead of just hiding them behind a fog.
  • Fog is now further from the player.
  • Fog is now slightly blueish.

Removals

General

• The test skybox has been removed; the sky now more closely resembles what it is in modern versions.

Distance effects

• Fixed a significant bug at high distances that causes chunks to detach and intensely jitter with camera movement.
• The wireframe hitbox for blocks no longer jitters at high distances, and no longer distorts at high distances for certain GPUs.
• Blocks no longer stop being solid after X/Z: 16,777,216.
• Particles are no longer distorted at high distances.

Fixes

• Fire, gears, torches and crops have a texture when placed.
• Torches can be placed on the sides of blocks again.
• Furnaces have a face.
• Block breaking cracks now show up consistently.

Bugs

• Opening the inventory crashes the game.
  • However, player can still access their inventory through a workbench.
• Slabs have lighting bugs.
• Sometimes, the game crashes while generating a world, with a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException error being thrown.

Distance effects

• Torches, flowers, saplings and seeds lose precision and appear 2D at large distances.
