A 2011 recompile of the Creative variant is available in the Minecraft:launcher, mislabeled as 0.30_01c, and contains renewed signature files. Gameplay is identical to the original 2009 build. A hash for "0.30_01a" was included in a list of version hashes compiled by Searge,Template:Cn but it was actually for a texture pack for 0.30, included in Mojang's archives likely by mistake.

Changes

Blocks

Minecraft:Grass block

Attempting to place grass blocks by means of hacking one's Minecraft:inventory in multiplayer now causes the server to automatically kick the player.

Minecraft:TNT

Hitting a Minecraft:primed TNT (Survival only) defuses it and lets it be picked up.
Explosions no longer produce smoke particles.

Mobs

Minecraft:Sheep

Now can be spawned legitimately in Survival, as previous versions required modifying the game to be in Survival to allow them to spawn.
