FAQ:
Q: Does this with work with TModloader?
A: It does indeed! It's fairly untreaded ground, but I'd love to see what folks can discover out when mixing mods with Transmutation. EDIT: Make sure you use this method for Philosopher's Stone: th-cam.com/video/0vp6XgoUOz4/w-d-xo.html
Q: Does this work on console?
A: It seems like people have figured out a few ways to get it to work (specifically on Playstation and XBox), but Your Mileage May Vary (YMMV). It's unlikely I'll make guides for console, since I still have so much to cover for PC, but if anyone else wants to make them, go right ahead! There seems to be plenty of demand for it.
Q: Wait, I have golden chests in my world!
A: In the game, there's two visually identical, but functionally distinct Golden Chests. The implemeneted one can be obtained from pirate invasions, but the un-implemented one cannot be placed or otherwise obtain in any way. Through Transmutation, what we do is we manipulate the sprite data of a regular chest into the un-implemented variant of the Golden Chest.
Q: Does Glitch #10 (Multiplayer CGO) work on demon altars?
A: Yes, yes it does. That'll be coming in a future video to show what happens when a regular world has one demon altar break a few hundred thousand times.
Q: Does glitch #10 work with Plantera bulbs?
A: It does! Unfortunately, it's hard-coded that you can spawn only one Platnera bulb, so it's not nearly as spectacular. But, you do get a re-usable Plantera bulb out of it.
This is so cool man 😂 it’s gonna break the speed running scene 110%, developers are gonna put a bounty on you
How to do the CGO?
how did you cut the campfire and the statue in half for the glitches?
GRR should’ve done it yesterday :((
While playing Fargo's Fish Anything mod, I was able to get the crystal chest so I guess there's that
"These are useless but funny."
*Shows off true invincibility tpose glitch that works in multiplayer while you're still targeted*
😂
Yes, that's pretty useless cuz nobody wants to duplicate zeniths and have a power to give yourself any item you want.
Those were in the practical category
...empress of light day time kill possible then?
@@saharudin3159 Its already possible, just very hard.
I never knew that I wanted a live studio audience in glitch showcase videoes until now.
The audience really just helped the host find new exploits in realtime
I need to bring up more "useless" exploits to a live audience
Red's sweating bullets watching this 💀
Never before has there been a bigger "red plz" moment then this.
Red is actively looking for this man's location to shake the info out of him.
no, ethyriel reported the bug multiple months before this video was released

I love it when glitches are weirdly intuitive with how their performed, so the campfire “burning through” sandstone torches like candles was really neat.
It's an excellent analog!
This honestly feels like a dream where you have absolutely no idea what is happening but somehow you understand everything

There are 2 kinds of glitch hunter
oh hey, it's henry yoshi of half a press fame
Holy shit it's tj hentry yoshi
A transmutation is a transmutation. You can't say it's only half.
Chaotic glitch hunting has to be the best way to glitch hunt, just do whatever till something breaks. And best part is if you know the initial glitch, messing with it is not that hard and its fun!
@@Scribblemations so-called freethinkers when they see tj henry yoshi
I went into this thinking "it can't be that crazy" and then was completely flabbergasted almost the entire video, and audibly scream-gasped(?) at a few moments
this is the most insane thing I've ever seen in terraria and the nonchalant voice made me think I was the insane one

For a glitch-junky, this video is the best drug ever made.
I've never seen Terraria be so broken and torn to pieces, but still functional.
Thank you Ethyriel, now I won't be able to stop thinking about the possible use cases for these bugs.
Happy to provide!
More coming soon c:
0:55 - "Hammer Anything" (Allow any block to appear hammered)
2:18 "Biome Chest Lockpicking" (Replace chests while retaining chest data. Essentially block-swap that works on locked chests)
4:11 "Zenith Transmutation" (Summon any item, using a spreadsheet to guide you)
8:37 - "Boulder Duplication" (Spawns in infinite amount of boulders. Enough said.)
10:18 - "Black Hole Glitch" (Just the Zenith transmutation again? Maybe it's different, but this time it's done over shimmer)
12:52 - "Bore Drill" (Deletes any blocks below itself, and is able to be used as a hellevator generator)
16:08 - "Railbug" (Hides background blocks below it's y-axis while rendered. Works as echo paint without the paint)
19:21 - "Chest T-Pose" (While hovering your cursor over a chest that shouldn't exist, your character is in suspended animation. You cannot take damage [except from players], but you also cannot move)
22:55 - "Multiplayer CGO" aka "Campfire Glitch 2 - Electric Boogaloo" (Literally summons every item in the game in order, in a non-specific amount. 100% run made easy)
25:55 - "Larvae Duplication" (I believe this is the same as the boulder duplication, just performed on a queen bee larva)
29:35 - *_fin_*
ok 👍🏽
black hole glitch constantly produces the item, rather than just making one
How can we get this spreadsheet?

I think he got it from someone else cause i saw a video where the guy talked about this glitch before this was posted
When you mix science and magic, strange things happen
I love how casually he just presents these like some salesman while everyone is freaking out. "Oh yeah, it also duplicates doors btw."
It happens more often than you'd think.
@@EthyrielYanother day in the lab amiright?
As someone who spends thousands of hours just building with wiring and logic gates, I'm super curious what type of wiring-related implications this glitch has. You could build arena minigames with bosses spawning on demand. You could build a slot machine that drops money when you win, but the machine never runs out of money. Perhaps you could make a 3D printer which can print any type of block, not only obsidian.
There's a glitch that allows you to turn a regular timer into a dummy engine timer, so there's already some weird interactions with wire. (That video is already done and will be published after the comprehensive transmutation guide.)
Honestly, I haven't experimented much with what happens when Transmutation and wire interact. There's probably still lots more to find.
Buddy has invented creative mode 💀
it's not a bug it's a feature
This is “Seth Bling Implements Flappy Bird in Super Mario” levels of glitchsploitation. Absolutely fabulous
That showcase so many years ago was certainly an inspiration to me!
I forgot to include this within the video, but here's Transmutation being used to set a new Moonlord% speedrun WR: th-cam.com/video/5L5cWvFHfwQ/w-d-xo.html (beats previous WR by over an hour)
“not very practical” um excuse me what the actual f**k
I’m pretty sure you can get the gold chest at 20:26 as a drop from the pirate invasion. Unless that’s a different gold chest texture and there just happens to be two in the game one not being implemented as a real item.
@@e.g.g.jr.9848 It uses the exact same texture, and there is indeed a gold chest as a drop from the pirate invasion.
The un-implemented one was added to the game's files the update before the implemeneted ones, and even after the "completed" versions were added, these strange, incomplete versions remain.
@@e.g.g.jr.9848 pretty confident it is different.
dayum
This was an absolute fever dream to witness first-hand, and I loved every second of it
Wow.
You just broke this game as wide open as could possibly be.
I honestly cannot wait to see what people (especially speedrunners) can do with all of these glitches, the possibilities seem endless!

Check out this nutty run here- Sub-7 moonlord run
This guy is so powerful that he can now beat the strongest object in the game: a chest with a single dirt block.
And in more ways than one.
this is insane, you're incredible (love the ROCK AND STONE at 'Bore Drill')
If you dont rock and stone you aint coming home.
You're really making me want to get back into Terraria! The technical aspects of games, including glitches, are things I've gotten a much greater appreciation for over the years. Plus, the floating house in your outro was amazing... :)
This reminds me of the old glitch with the piggy bank on Terraria console when it was introduced. Basically, every time you loaded your world. The items in the piggy bank would transmute into blocks and a stack count, and I discovered that the stack count was the ID as well as the block type. Every other time you reload that world, the piggy bank would turn back into normal items and the blocks.
It was an insane glitch back then and funny enough, the ID's of PC actually worked with this bug on console despite the version differences.
Fascinating! This game's ID system really has caused issues for ages, hasn't it?
this sort of reminds me of an old console glitch that let you turn stacks of items in chests into any item ID below 999. massive props for figuring this out!
I love how casual you are about these glitches, can't wait to see more
This video was one hell of a ride. Pure perfection! As bugs enjoyer, I'm pleased with your work!
MOOOOMM I WANT SHIMMER!!!
We have SHIMMER at home.
Shimmer at home:
honestly this shimmer is superior
it's like expecting raisin cookies but you actually get the chocolate chip cookies you wanted
Imagine casually playing multiplayer with some of your friends and an entire swarm of queen bees approaching your position
The glitch where you can hammer anything is actually kinda huge for building, I hope ReLogic doesn't patch it.
Same
This was a really great video. The glitches were intriguing on their own, but you and your friends were also tremendously funny and made the video great to watch beyond just learning some neat Terraria glitch tech. Thanks for the content.
Holy shit, that was one of the most entertaining and bizzare videos I had seen in a while. Such an underrated channel
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Holy moly man this genuinely felt like a fever dream, every glitch I just had my mouth wide open from shock and awe
This glitch showcase literally broke part the entire game I wonder what other people might discover after playtesting with this glitch in mind
Someone made something nutty called the "Transmute Workshop" - check it out here because it's actually insane th-cam.com/video/kkw3gqeRCxI/w-d-xo.html
i now have a new favourite channel!! desperately want to get back into terraria now, these glitches are amazing lmao
21:49 RIP Baby Slime gone too soon
I love how he makes things entertaining rather than just showing the glitches!
That last clip with the eaters being spawned from blocks was the most disturbing yet intriguing thing I’ve ever seen
Dude. This hands down is one of the craziest videos I have seen in a long time.
The way you can obtain unobtainable items reminds me of the old minecraft beta exploit with pistons where you could get invalid block damage values and get seamless stone slabs
Every time i think "this is can't be worse" terraria veterans broke game again
there's always more
and still more to come :)
@@EthyrielY Did you break something again?
I actually found out the thing that happens with unobtainable chests while testing some items that weren't accessible in the game from those free item servers. Its a really funny and wierd item
You are melting my mind dude. Well done
just when I thought I've seen it all.
great work
12:54
FOR ROCK AND STONE!
My brain is broken. This is the most amazing display of glitches I’ve ever seen.
This is Incredible.
I want to start a playthrough now, at midnight where i am, and break progression to beat moonlord in 5 minutes. Cheers.
I remember messing around with unobtainable items awhile ago and finding out about the freezing while mousing over unimplemented chests. I didn’t do too much with it, had no idea you were invincible, all I found out was the freeze. Never really thought it would have any purpose, especially since I had to use an inventory editor to get the chests
Same here! It wasn't until the other folks in the call suggested "Wait, what happens if you take damage" did that rabbit hole start.
If you try to vanquish the coding spaghetti monster he comes back twice as strong. They tried to remove chest duping and now look what they did.
Give Ethyriel a spoon, some rocks and butter and he could glitch teleporters in real life
Seriously, I love this video, love the way you explained the glitch!
with the zenith. i actually experienced a freak glitch a many years ago that was similar. but i was just placing platforms done in space and suddenly the just starting turning in to truffle worms in the dropped item form. i i just kept placing my remaining platforms down until i was out. i got 66 truffle worms from it
27:04 POV: You entered within a 20 meter radius of an Africanized killer bee hive.
i GENUINELY thought it was an april fools joke
Poor timing on my part, lmao
Honestly quite incredible

12:54 Rock and Stone you beautiful dwarf!!!
this reminds me of them cursed minecraft gameplay animations where steve just does the most cursed speedrun stuff and yet it makes logical sense
I love you for the fact you named it "transmutation" and "the philosophers stone". im currently watching fullmetal alchemist and it was refreshing to get them references.
i'm REALLY scared of the constant playthrough future episodes now
you should be
I thought that id seen everything in the game and now I am scratching my head, you are a wizard
Thank you TH-cam recommendations, for once you came through for me. Easy subscription, this video was a lot of fun!
Glad you enjoyed it! I've got lots more to publish in the near(ish) future!
my guess is that the two unimplemented chests run into a loop without exit conditions when you mouse over; I had a similar bug in a mod I was developing
Fascinating! I'll have to poke someone who knows about the game's code to have a look at the unfinished items, I'm curious if this is the case.
I have no friend to play with, so this is impossible ಥᴗಥ
Entirely possible to do just by yourself! You canopen two instances of the game on the same, and control both of them. The steps on how to do this are shown in the "Door Desync Glitch" video (See first link in the description for the playlist.)
@@EthyrielY Problem: how can I get two accounts on mobile
29:05 wow! That new summoner update looks crazy! Im so glad to be a summoner main!
new summoner buffs looking crazy
Something very similar was found in minecraft. the thing found in minecraft, if I remember correclty, allows you to stitch together the first part of tge id of any block in item form with the second part of the id of any falling block. And because concrete powder is basically 16 block ids in a row, and all of them are affected by gravity, most blocks can be obtained with them. Again, this is just what I remember of what I understood when I heard about it. I think it was on Prototech, like so many other deeply technical discoveries.
Can you get dragged by the WOF when doing the tpose glitch?
It's on the list of things to test!
the 2nd glitch reminds me of the old console days where you could use an ice staff to glitch a chest and then you could just mine it forever and get infinite chests
one of the videos ever. great work
Bro have a forbidden knowledge and i also like the way how ue explained everything like a scientist 😂😂😂
I don't know HOW the Terraria Team is gonna patch this one.
I hope they don’t honestly
@@accountlol7409 They will try to, but It probably won't be too soon so you got time to dupe a Zenith
Red said Transmutation is getting fixed in 1.4.5. How and to what degree, I'm not sure.
But I plan to break 1.4.5.
Redigit after this video: new update! Campfires removed from game!
How does such a video exist for Terraria this is awesome!
Tutorial. Please :D
This guy is the mumbo jumbo of terraria
awesome, i'll be sure to implement every single one of these in my multiplayer with my friends. love your avatar btw.
Thanks^^!
this has to be one of the craziest glitches in video game history. i just cant wrap my mind around this.
Would you believe me if I said it got even crazier?
already experienced invisiblity frame while overing from unimplemented item (probably chest infact) , from a "hacked" map from workshop , but i dont remember well it was several map ago
just remember it contain pixel block (before they was officialy in game) and lunatic treasure bag (and some banner)
This is going to be helpful for my gold critters farm that I needed to collect
I think maybe the best idea for this glitch is to keep it in journey mode somehow, so in normal worlds it doesn't work but in journey worlds it somehow works
these are so bizarrely specific like what am I watching lolll
for the invinciblillity glitch you can setup a trap cage around you so while your invincible bosses take damage
one thing i would try is using a grass block in there with the grass boots and a flare just as it was used to farm bugs instantly
29:11 looks like that one Mario Minigame where you had to find one character sprite with a bunch of others floating around
oh my god this brings back _memories_
Luigi's casino too
We’re witnessing the single most potent thing terraria speed running has ever seen. And it’s on latest patch. Wow.
I don't know if this is known already or relevant to the video but I may have found a glitch similar to the 1.0 dirt rod glitch. The one where you create a ball of death using sand. In multiplayer (I've only done it on switch and I don't know why multiplayer is required) if you use a drill on the bottom block of a pillar of sand, silt, slush, etc, it recreates the dirt rod glitch from 1.0 terraria. Kind of. It can only damage players. It also only works with drills I think.
Huh, I might need to give that a go. Does there need to be anything specific beneath the pillar of sand/slush/silt?
@@EthyrielY Not from what I can tell. It's been a solid few months since I've done it though since I've been playing other games
I never thought there would be an Terraria item id cycle glitch. And I’m not even finished with the video.
Fucking ‘A’ man, real impressive stuff!
You're a comedic genius ngl 5:31

The Black Hole Glitch is also deliberately named after a glitch of the same name in Super Mario Maker, isn't it
(There the glitch lets you lag the level editor out so hard that the automatic grid-snapping fails to happen, which leads to metric tons of extra-janky shenaniganery)
i love getting glitches for games and hate devs patching them but who tf gave this man the power of god he pulls 400 drax out of his ass like its nothing
11:11 Fun fact: those steel tipped stakes are still there to this day, you can google it.
Hope this blows up, amazing video
12:54 Rock and Stone you beautiful dwarf.
19:21
Oh, goodness! I thought they fixed this. I managed to trigger this vanity-disappearing-freeze bug back in early 1.3 with a corrupt, glitchy stack of daybloom I don't remember how I got. I reported it and everyone was dumbfounded.
The bug was different, though, in that it had a strange interaction with hitting "loot all" and would freeze you in place and hide your vanities only when you tried to pick it up. I had a world download up for those that wanted to test it.
I double-checked, and it is fixed now. But I have a video of it.
My god that's absolutely awesome and insane
19:35 the golden chest is obtainable in vanilla terraria. It drops from pirate invasion pirates
With the invulnerability glitch, if the weapons still have damage ticks mid-swing, you could use something like a zenith to just afk and shred enemies
I'd need to test that! Adding that to the list of things to try when I make a video dedicated to that glitch.
@@EthyrielY Finally, a method to kill master mode duke fishron with a copper shortsword and no armor or accessories.
Most deserved hitting the subscription button I've ever had
I can't WAIT for the next Terraria Veterans series now
this is genuinely the greatest terraria video i've ever seen
I think boring bow (or any item if item without a set size) has item width 0, and throwing it against a wall aligns it to fit between the points that detect collision. I don't know, though. That's just what I thought of when I saw what it did.
edit: the edit is unrelated, but it seems like youtube only allows 2 comments per channel per video.
The invisible furniture makes a lot of sense. There are many ways for such an effect to occur. I think that in this case, the way it works is that when the visual furniture layer is updated, there is a hard cap of how many times it is allowed to go through the "add next furniture tile" loop (probably not the actual name. I haven't seen the code.), and the glitch you found somehow prevents it from going to the next tile. please try running the glitch with furniture on both sides to see if they get cut off vertically at the same point. If they don't, go to the where the bottom corner of the screen on the side which has the furniture cut off at the highest point of the two sides, and place furniture as densely as possible in and outside that corner. depending on how the game is coded, it might change the what is shown where the glitch is triggered. Or it might not. It would be kinda weird for the pointer that takes map data to continue changing, but not the draw location pointer.
