Nooooo don't transmute me! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😰😰😰😰😨😨😨😨😨😰😰😨😰😧😧😧😧😧
Second review and 3rd like
Love all the videos thank you 😂💙
no :troll: i will be transmutated into a subscribe button that people can press for you
I remember being on the forum excitedly trying out new developments. I sold 6-sided pistons and full-slabs for diamonds per stack on a server. This was such a fun time in Minecraft's history!! Crazy that I haven't seen a video about it till now.
Puffing fish HQ made a video about it a while ago in his unobtained series
I think youtuber JKM also made video about this.
ElRichMC (spanish youtuber) has a survival series. Up till 1.7 he used these transmutators for something. I cant remember why tho
@@ChimeraTermew spanish
Imagine this happening nowawadys... selling a block that could crash out the whole server in one block update to a bunch of people. The server would immediatly die
Falling-block transmutation was quite possibly the most powerful method of transmutation, because, unlike all the other methods, it wasn't limited to block metadata. It was possible to create a falling block entity from any block (and to hold those entities in stasis) in such a way that any possible block could be created _and_ obtained as an item in survival. The scicraft server still has a large amount of command blocks and end portal frames in their storage system.
I think they used a very different setup than the ones in this video though, I think it had something to do with multithreading overloads due to an enormous number of beacons? It's still mostly black magic to me
What scicraft did is very similar to the falling block transmutation shown in the video, with a couple of caveats:
1. They could create *any* blockstate in the game, including unobtainable blocks like command blocks, portals, barriers, etc.
2. They obtained their blocks in a 2 stage process, first generating the blocks they wanted as is with a form of block transmutation, and then using falling block transmutation to obtain them as items.
3. They used a variety of advanced techniques to increase the likelihood of the exploit working, as it is normally extremely inconsistent
@@rammycanales3784A lot of people already obtained them.

@@agustinrubel1280 but ElRich Mc was the first one to get in 100% survival one player
Back on the 360 this was the only way to get things like new tree saplings because of limited worlds, it felt like a genuine dark art which was really cool. I'm writing a video about how 4J Studios was the best minecraft developer but due to hardware limitations that was like one thing you needed to do if you wanted to keep the old world without adding stuff via creative
MY GOD I REMEMBER DOING THIS
4J was the best and the memory the 360 has is just insane. My 360 works to this day so I might boot it up and transfer my world I had since 2012 to xbox one, then onto my pc
4J knew and understood the coding of the game they were working with and it was mostly the same across all platforms it was on. Mojang barely understands Java anymore and even less so with Bedrock, which is why Minecrafts quality has nose dived right into the ground ever since the Better Together Update was announced and M$ decided to remove legacy console edition from all stores, just so Bedrock edition wouldn't have any competition.
The old console version was, IMO, The version with the most potential. It was basically a 1:1 port of Java in many cases to the degree that several bugs from Java existed on 360 in their corresponding versions. If we could have one definitive version of MC on PC, I would want it to be a modified version of the legacy console version which has infinite worlds and mod support. Since near the end of its lifespan, It started merging the best of Java and Bedrock.
Legacy console addition should make a comeback, personally i think their multiplayer should be present on bedrock and java again.
@@SolTheIdiot I'd rather legacy console edition come back separately from Java and Bedrock as Minecraft "Legacy" edition, and get 4J back to at least update the game again until it's up to 1.20.
I've been playing Minecraft for 10+ years now and with all the weird and niche quarks I know about -
this one I never knew about 💀
there is many that we never knew about because they seem to be uninteresting until they get very old and not common to see
360 players will remember this
@@chilldogs1881Indeed I do, I miss my 360 which I lost 3 years ago.
I only knew about it because of the smooth stone slab one that a lot of mapmakers and such used before it was obtainable.
But I didn't know anything else about it. Just that it could be used for that.
@@VillainousToaster Sad, I still have my 360 so I might go plug it in and play around.
Seeing how the piston transmutation unlocks the ability to do door transmutation sounds like something out of a minecraft tech modpack, which would be a great idea for an expert pack, using mods to mimic the ways these old glitches used to break the game and having those glitches be your only way to obtain new blocks and materials.
It's like the terraria transmutation glitch where a bast statue and a little setup allows you to save chest data, allowing you to move all the items inside, and turn a wood door into a zenith, the most op sword In the game
@@acid9033did they patch that?
@@pumkin610 no. I mean how would you?
I’d actually like to add onto this video with a discovery me and a few friends found on hypixel.
We were messing around in their skyblock gamemode trying to generate so called ‘server placed’ red sand as it would unlock us that collection tree which was locked because of a challenge we had started.
One of my friends was getting rid of a cactus farm he had when he discovered a sand duplication glitch, since it duplicated we hoped that it might be able to duplicate a few glitched red sand we had obtained in the past.
When trying the glitch with the red sand, the red sand would simply turn into normal sand. After I saw this video I looked at the minecraft wiki and it turns out they share the same item ID, and instead using meta data to determine which is which. Now our bug involved dropped sand in unloaded chunks onto a mushroom placed on dirt, after which there was a chance that it would replace the mushroom rather than turn into an item, at which point the transmutation you’ve talked about would occur with red sand turning into normal sand. I assume that when it replaced the mushroom that since the mushroom doesn’t have any meta data, it would set the value of the red sand to 0 since it had to place it as a normal block since it had touched the ground, as such it would turn it into normal sand
That’s different as it is modded
Its not quite different, modded/datapacked servers most likely wont change how block ids work
@@ZephyrysBaummoron
@@ZephyrysBaumit is block transmutation though there’s a chance it was only possible because we were on hypixel. Shortly before we had found this hypixel made it so you couldn’t place mushrooms on dirt, there’s a chance this allowed for the sand to replace the mushroom since the only reason this transmutation is possible is because the sand replaces the mushroom as it hits the ground
also of note is that alpha slabs were created on hypixel as well, so this would be the second case of (known) block transmutation on hypixel
You're missing the transmutation where you combine part of the bits of one block ID with the remaining bits of another block ID to get a falling entity with the newly combined block ID.

That's called word tearing, it's involved in async tech and has nothing to do with data value manipulation, the topic of this video.
@@EstolitI mean, data values get manipulated in word tearing... It's not a 100% copy paste of another value, but the value is still modified
I guess It's cool seeing videos like these that teach younger players like me about old obscure Minecraft bugs almost as old as they are.
i played since alpha and never knew so this is forbidden dark magic to most of us i think
Thank you for the shoutout and for spreading the word about this super fun glitch!
Soon after Terraria item transmutation glitch, Minecraft's way to transmute blocks was revealed. Almost poetic
Exactly what I was thinking
Wait, Terraria had a transmutation glitch known in 2011/2012? That's crazy.
revealed? you realize this was possible 12 years ago right
Both involve doors!
@@MuzikBikeIt was only recently discovered!
We're basically changing protons and neutrons in Minecraft blocks to create new "elements"
A similar bug exists in infdev 20100327, although it’s much easier to do. If you plant wheat and then destroy it, whatever block you place there next retains the damage value.
I think I remember seeing the Scicraft server doing something like this recently. They were using falling blocks like sand and different colored concrete to obtain any block in the game. They had command blocks and bedrock. They even had blocks that I'd never seen before.
Like?
@aedenoleary I remember that one of the blocks was black with a white star, or a white diamond, (diamond as in shape, not jewel,) and the shape was surrounded by a circle.
@@themanwiththeplan676 its called a structure block
You forgot the most insane version of block transmutation. Most people who I talk to about it simply call it “falling block” and it’s featured in an ilmango Scicraft video (specifically “getting command blocks in survival”). Basically, it allows for the generation of ANY block using falling block data. It’s incredibly complicated but it allows for the generation of any block in the game.
Is it random?
@@masonboone4307o it is not, but needs a lot of tries
Yep
Can I just say that I truly love and appreciate your creative subscription segues? I mean they're so much more fun to watch than any type of "and while you're down there, smack the sub button." Thank you for putting in just that little bit of effort every video.
perfectly balanced with no exploits
Theres a super similar door transmutation glitch in terraria, interesting how both games have had door transmutations
I think blockstate corruption / word tearing is more interesting and powerful. You can get command blocks in survival, barrier blocks, bedrock, spawners, end portal frames etc
I was going to mention this.
World tearing ... Is that a reference to "word tearing" - a somewhat common race condition in software generally that causes numbers to be partially overwritten in memory when trying to be modified by multiple threads at once ..?
@@LiEnbyYep, that’s exactly what it is but with block IDs.
@@LiEnbyYep, the setup requires forcing Minecraft to ruin several async threads
@@LiEnby Yeah, iirc beacon beams changing color from stained glass is for some reason the one thing in the game that uses a separate thread, which can be used to cause word tearing on sub-chunks that have more than 256 unique block states (in which blocks are encoded in an array of longs, which are 64 bits, while each block state is 13 bits, so some block states get split across two longs, which is where word tearing can be used to combine two parts of two different block states to get normally unobtainable blocks). This works in 1.12, and Myren Eario has several videos showing and explaining it
As a developer, I love to see how people discover bugs in our messy work
I love when you post new videos. You put so much effort into everything and it's so commendable, you know? Thanks TheMisterEpic, I know this is kind of much but I really appreciate your channel
Appreciate the kind words :)
@@TheMisterEpic You’re so welcome. Can't wait for your next video!
I can kinda understand why this works, but it's still really cool actually seeing it in action
No
@@LavaCreeperPeople what do you mean no?
Here in terraria we call that a world record Speedrun tactic
We recently got Terraria transmutation, and now we have Minecraft transmutation.
Truly, the shadow wizard money gang is among us.
yes
This bug is actually very old. I guess that's why they've made a video instead of using it to crash P2W servers.
ElRichMC, a Spanish Minecraft TH-camr, has used this transmutation to get giant blocks made of these cursed blocks
He also has a few more unobtainable blocks in his 1 player survival world that he's had for a long while now. Really weird and cool thing you can do in Minecraft
There is still a kind of block transmutation in modern versions of minecraft. SCI-Craft members discovered it and obtained command blocks and other funny blocks in a survival world.
It's not fixed, it's just become more involved :P
On Scicraft's 1.12 world, they got many unobtainable blocks like command blocks and end portal frames. I think you can still do this to some extent on newer versions
That glitch works in an entirely different way. This bug modifies metadata, while the 1.12 scicraft glitch is far more involved.
I thought about that, but genuinely, it's barely the same glitch.
Well yes. 1.12 still used metadata. 1.13 completely removed the concept of it from the game.
Yep
W scicraft
Wait the block transmutation still works nowadays but it is is far more complicated than it used to be. Now instead of changing the block id, it changes the block binary or something like that from 2 blocks, the first half from one and the second half from an other. It permits getting every single block including creative only blocks such as command blocks, barrier block. By transmitting it to a falling block, they can get the block in their inventory and place it wherever they want. I’ll try linking the video if you want
bro watched too much Scicraft
Sci craft..
I guess you can do everything in Minecraft, even be a alchemist and transmute something to another 🧙
If I had a nickel for every blocky sandbox game that had a transmutation glitch I'd have 2 nickles which isn't a lot but its weird because it happened twice
there is another?
@@fluffypinkpandas Terraria has a similar glitch
I can't believe Mojang secretly added alchemy to Minecraft.
Yo epic, i love your channel, you are doing a good work, you arent like another minecraft youtubers that has bad video quality, you always had the quality, keep up!
*My english is kinda broken, sorry.*
Loved the video! So well explained especially with how little this part of minecraft's history is covered. 👍
WTF I was searching up 6 sided pistons earlier today and you uploaded a video about it?! Amazing man
One the only consistent documentary style minecraft youtubers, you are the goat.
I just remembered this yesterday, and now there is a video on it. I remember thinking how bizarre this bug was
I remember using this exact glitch in the old Xbox 360 edition of the game. It was very cool being able to get these unique block states. It's especially cool seeing how some were added today such as the smooth stone block and 6 sided logs. This brought back some memories
This is some form of dark magic wizardry
The dark side of the glitch is a pathway to many abilities some would consider to be unnatural
i love the editing in this video specifically!
Great content man, 👍
I remember doing this way back in the day! Super cool seeing a video about these OG minecraft bugs
5:00 love the dutch angle, perfect feel for the video
A really nice, fun to watch video as always. Thanks.
Very cool! Love the vids
insanely insanely cool stuff, great video ! but the reminder that chiseled stone only being in like Jungle Temples for the longest time made me feel soo old lmao 😫
Oh my god, I've forgotten the absolute wizardry that was taking place back then. I still remember six sided pistons and full slabs VIVIDLY from when I was a kid looking at custom maps. Thanks for bringing back this ancient memory
Up to 1.17.5, arrows could also transmute any block to lit TNT, which to this day is my favorite bug in the game
bedrock deletion
For the Stone Brick variations, for a while breaking a Stone Brick Stair would give you a specific one depending on the direction you placed the stairs in. Was a 6:4 conversion cost so not horrible either.
You alway come up with the coolest and most creative ways to tell, oh wait I mean pressuring us to subscribe ❤
Block transmutation is fantastic! I use it to get smoothstone blocks in beta minecraft on the Back to Beta server. Unfortunately its a limited process in beta so only really useful for the one type of block but we all use it well as a welcome addition amoung the limited block options.
i should say smoothstone blocks are unobtainable in beta minecraft
I take it by "smoothstone" you mean the smooth double slab that was unobtainable before 1.14

Never new about this.. block games are so complex
It's interesting that even as an OG, I didn't know of this feature at all! I've been playing since mid-2012!
Really interesting video! Never heard of anything like this.
This reminds me of Terraria's Alchemy bug, which can be used to get any item in the game, and even one which aren't but the code is
Door transmutation is the same sort of transmutation glitch and used in the same way as the new terraria transmutation glitch that was found recently with some differences of how to make it or how it effects things
Great video please bring more content like this
Thanks for your video, Mister Epic
Interesting how in Terraria, block transmutation also exists. Also because all the blocks have number IDs. You just kinda "scroll" through the list until you get the item you want. It also uses doors.
Bro I stopped watching u as religiously as I used to cos of exams but this video has just made me realize how much I love ur content, the music, ur attitude, everything, ur videos and the music u use have almost become nostalgic to me 😂 cos I’ve watched u since u were like 30k subs on my other account aswell comfyranger u might recognize
Hey I remember these old bugs, I think we used to use it to get smooth stone blocks and the 6 sided logs that had only bark on them back before they were officially added to the game.
I like how he is talking abut a bug like he was talking about some dark mysterious crime
I think the best part is the falling sand transmutation where you can get all sorts of unobtainable items like command blocks, barriers, and end portal frames. It’s what scicraft used and was touched on with ilmango, but you can go down a deeper rabbit hole.
"Negative cake" is not a word combination I thought I would be hearing today
there is actually a new and more versatile form of block transmutation used to get unobtainable blocks in vanilla but it's a bit more complex. Myren has some videos explaining how it functions and it was most popularly used by JKM to get command blocks on a few technical servers.
This man is gonna make the craziest April Fools prank video
One thing I've always wondered, is the old obsidian generator that turned redstone into obsidian blocks - was that a form of block transmutation, a purposely coded effect, or some old bug that has never been technically explained?
I've never been able to find a real description of how or why that happened, at best there's just an update note on the redstone wiki page, nothing actually documenting if it was intentional or not.
It worked with tripwire for a time as well, but the tripwire version was fixed before the redstone version. No idea what was behind it.
That red sand machine is really cool.
Imagine the very unique way Notch created Minecraft code, So it has too much unique bugs(Programmers can understand)
Thats why Minecraft is one of the most unique games of its type.
i think the concept of doing "physical"(even tho its virtual) and affecting the code so fascinating, like, imagine that you, irl, get a ball of wool, put water in it and it changes color
What is transmution? Welp I will find out in 10 mins soooo… 😅
Well what is it
@@ChrisPtoes27lol
idk whether you figured it out or not, but if not, transmutation is turning one thing into another. the word is usually used in chemistry, alchemy, and fictional magic systems
It's funny to me to see this as back in the day on our creative server we were just spawning those strange block versions to use in our builds :)
I think some needed worldedit to do though.
Eyyy! I didn't expect my comment on your last episode to inspire a new one, but glad people got to hear about these old bugs!
I either wasn't aware of, or completely forgot about that first/liquid bug though. And definitely didn't know about the half door. I also forgot about the red sand conversion, but I definitely did it. Neat!
I remember older world edit when we used block ids for setting things, and boy remembering the values of colors for wool was so nice for efficiency
That thumbnail is cursed. This exploit is gonna be cool
You couldn't get chiselled stone bricks until 1.8 except in igloos and jungle temples
Igloos, who weren't added until 1.9 be like 👀
So funny that Terraria has the same bug and is still not patched today!
We can get the best items in the game using lamps in Terraria. And the bug is also called Transmutation I think.
you used to be able to do this on play station with logs, if you went over the numerical amount of logs in game you would get this really cool industrial steel pillar thing
I remember on the hunger games servers back then, the Crates were those 6 sided pistons
So many crazy transmutations that had excellent purposes
Fun fact, Terraria also has its own transmutation bug. Works almost the same but not quite, and hasn't been fixed yet.
I remember throughout 2011 using block transmutation during the late beta era (before this post was made) It was pretty dangerous though because it could crash vanilla server software if anyone loaded that area of the world. On non-Vanilla server software only the client would crash, but they were effectively chunkbanned. I didn't use water sources though to control it. That is pretty ingenious.
It's actually funny to think about this rn, since the same bug with the same name was discovered in terraria recently
this guy deserves more subs for this content
if I had a nickel for every sandbox game that had a transmutation glitch involving a half-door, I'd ha-

Minecraft transmutation:
_This is it. The frontier of all advancement. What we have here is the philosopher's stone; a power sought after by mankind throughout all of history._
_By taking advantage of the exact moment the game changes the metadata of a block, we are able to harness its power, for better or for worse._
_With this, almost all problems are solved. Resources can be abundant, food can be plentiful, destruction can be amassed at the press of a button._
_The only problem remaining is if it's ethical for one man to wield this much power._
Terraria transmutation:
_today on bottom gear_
_i praise an ancient egyptian god_
_hammond uses the fucking zenith_
_and james frame-ones the dungeon guardian_
I used to use falling block transmutation to get the red sandstone for my base on a server. I would sit there feeding sand into the machine and reading chat on this sever with a small friendly closely knit community.those were the good days
Block transmutation still exists by overloading the game to force it to make another thread with observers, glass, beacons and a clusterchunk so you can then manipulate blocks into other blocks like sand into a end portal
Given that mods were just starting to be a big thing, there's not much done to test transmutation with mods. Being able to wrap battery charge from 1 to -1 is probably the most I'd have tried to do.
I never knew about transmutation, but the flattening was devastating to me because it meant the end of the texture pack Conquest, which used metadata to assign alternate textures to blocks. It was amazing for creative mode building! Now, there's hundreds more blocks, but you still can't get that variation in "stone" or terracotta
Strange how this pops up not too far after Terraria’s transmutation became a thing.
Turning into a suit of armor with this one 🔥🔥
Lmao
8:35 reminds me so much of the black hole glitch from Mario Maker 2
It even ends with a "broken track" :D
6:40 one moment of silence for that chicken
this was also a thing on the legacy console editions and was how people were able to obtain unobtainable items like the command block
I remmber that machine :D I used it myself to transmute stune bricks into it's non-craftable variants on an old aserver. Tho the one I used changed the output depending on it's rotation.
The arrow transmutation reminds me of a bedrock-breaking machine that used lava, tnt, and arrows.
There’s a similar thing in modern versions where u can transfer NBT data (chest contents, lectern book, etc.) from one block to a completely different one
