Cities3D 0.7 is now available for download. It has all Seafarers of Catan maps and rulesets completed, as well as several basic game options (also known as variants), and some nifty UI improvements, like popups on build windows that let new players know exactly how much an item costs.

Follow the links on the Cities3D Project Homepage to see Release Notes, download the new version, and learn how to report bugs.

NOTE: You must uninstall any previous version of Cities3D, including removing player and game databases. If you don't do this, Cities3D 0.7 will crash on startup.

The focus of Cities3D development is now on the ultimate goal: Cities & Knights of Catan. The groundwork has been covered over the past 2+ years, the foundation carefully laid, everything painstakingly plotted and planned for what comes next. Yes, the time has finally come to implement Cities & Knights. The next version, 0.8, will have all of C&K rules without progress cards. The following version, 0.9, will implement all of the progress cards.

Remember that there is no built-in game finding software in Cities3D yet, so to play online, you will have to arrange a game with someone acting as the host and everyone connecting to their IP address. The IRC channel #settlers on irc.freenode.net is a good place to look for people testing the game.
