The good old speed glitch. The first speed glitch was the one where you had to click on the bus at Fort Pinta while sitting on the bench, after that you had to open settings and quickly drag the graphics slider back and forth which gave you massive frame drops that were used to glitch through the wall behind the Janitor. You had to do this quite a few times to increase your stats. It is still unbelievable to me how someone figured this out
I recently started playing, so I've had quite a few quests I've chipping through. The dynamite in North Link is still in the game. It's part of the questline to set up the gondolas for the astronomer, and you are tasked to blow up the "crumbling old supports" to make way for the new ones. First try around, I didn't know you could run through the concrete blocks, got stuck on some terrain, and had my first "death" because I was too close to the explosion. The pillars are far enough apart that it's not really practical to have your character run between them, so I can't confirm if it triggered by the player alone.
One staple thing I remember back in the day was being forced to run, and being unable to walk. Now you can shift between walking and running by clicking shift, but back then you'd have to hold your camera sideways in order for your character to walk ^w^. This, and having to pay in order to be able to lead your horse around :D
About the creation of the Nixies: I'm pretty sure it was all done via Instagram. SSO would create a bunch of different accounts for this and I'm pretty sure it worked like this: First, SSO tagged an account with all of the available coat colours to choose from. Meaning that this account had a bunch of posts and all of them represented a base colour for the horse. Can't remember how many available colours there were - but one post represented one colour. Let's say you chose a blue horse. You would then click on that post - and in that post another account would be tagged. This account would bring you to a page with posts consisting of only blue horses but with different mane colours. And from there you would follow the same process - choose a mane colour (for example yellow) and move on to the tagged account from that specific post. Then you'd be met with an account with posts of blue horses with yellow manes and now you'd have to choose a special marking for the horse. I can't remember how many times this process was iterated but I'm pretty sure at the end you had to screenshot your finished horse and then post it and perhaps tag SSO? Sounds like a very tedious process for SSO and I do not envy the poor soul that had to set up all of these accounts but I'm pretty sure this is how it all went down.
That's weird, I was playing during that time and I remember creating a Nixie but in my memory it was more like the creation of the birthday horse, like having a site on Which you could create it like you would create an outfit on these old fashionista games. But that was years ago so I could also just remember it wrong °~°
Aside from helmets and gloves we also wasn’t able to take off our horses tack, it later changed to be able to take off only the saddle and pad and even later we were allowed to take off even the bridles. I also remember wild horses wasn’t a thing and when we wanted to be one we got to the sso folder and deleted pants and reins files 😅 such a good times it was. I have a lot of memories like this and I am also proud owner of JA band shirt! ❤
Oh so that was the reason why people used to remove bridle from the files as well. And if you only removed the "pants" file, the reins would go up to the sky lmao
I remember when they accidentally released the "remove hat" and "remove gloves" feature. I discovered it by pure accident myself and no one seemed to know about it. I'm not sure if it appeared for others, but I know for a while that I ran around without a helmet/hat. Even after they patched out the feature (which they later officially released.)
11:00 not book 1, but book 2, but otherwise it’s completely right! We learn more backstory on Mr Sands and his lost love Rosalinda when Linda visits Pine Hill manor and finds his diary! Rosalinda was tried as a witch through a trial by water, and developed some sort of illness from it (I don’t think it’s ever explicitly confirmed what it is, but my guess is pneumonia), and then she died from that. Mr Sands became incredibly angry at the world (and at the people who tried Rosalinda since he blames them for her illness and death), and Garnok approached him in that moment. Sands swore his loyalty to him, and has been his immortal general since then. I don’t remember if we get an exact year for when Rosalinda’s whole thing happened - I think we do, but I’d have to check - but by the existence of witch trials during that time, it would definitely be impossible for him to still be alive if he wasn’t immortal. Also I think the option to hide your hat is good for keeping the stats a hat provides without having to see it!
My two cents: There is a youtube channel named Glori who made a video series back in 2013-2015 about Star Stable. Unfortunately, she only speaks Czech, but aside from the language barrier you can find some authentic content in those videos. Old graphics, events that are no longer available, the overall vibe from that era, etc.
Here are two creepy stories about bugs from 2013 (or 2014) sso. Once there was free star rider given to everyone and I logged in as usual but ended up with a different character and a different horse. I don't remember checking if it was my nickname or not (I was 9 yo lmao) but it seems that somehow I logged on a different account. Of course I logged off immediately and logged in my account once more and it was ok. And here's a bug that scared me. Once I logged in, my character was fishing on valedale lake. No UI, nothing. Just my girl fishing. That scared me af as a kid... I'm glad that has never happened to me since that time
speaking of sso music, i know that this dramatic one that is (or was?) in some quests and old games is also used in an old polish tv show „gdzie jest kłamczuch”. i was so shocked when i watched an episode and it was there hah
No one speaks about an akhal-teke that stood at the equestrian centre and cost 1200 or 1250. I do remember that clearly, even tho there have been no confirmations of that to this day (or I might not have yet seen it). The price changed to 990 very soon. Does anyone else remember that or does my child imagination betray me?
Amazing video! I love your editing style and i really appreciate you covering the star stable iceberg ❤️ The salon music is such a weird mystery that im so curious about Also, for anyone wondering, the last time that the piggies would ever be sold again was feb of this year as stated by star stable to the possibility i hope they bring them back one last time for people who missed them
This video was amazing, as usual. I LOVE learning more about the history and lore of SSO, it's fascinating! Incredible job! I would LOVE to see more star stable videos from you
I realized this strange thing happens at night. I'm a newer player and I play at night and for some reason, like around 2 am, some text pops up on my screen saying something about how midnight has fallen and the night is closing in. I haven't found anything about this yet so what is this??
@@BunnieGutsEverywhere yeah, this is just a little pop up of text that appears late at night! Doesn’t really seem to have a rhyme or reason to it, I think it’s supposed to go off at midnight, but server time doesn’t always equal your actual time zone so it’s not accurate for everyone :)
funny thing about this text, i dont know if its still a thing bcs i think they removed the popup you got after doing horse care, but if you had a horse that was just named "dusk", instead of its name showing up in the popup like with any other name, it would show the text from this "late at night" message in there instead (twilight falls, the night is closing in, as the other commenter said). I reported it once but, just as always, they didnt fix it, and now that that popup is (im pretty sure) gone (idk tbh, i dont play sso enough to know anymore, and when i do i just buy stable care), its irrelevant
i believe may and maya are 2 different people sort of when may got updated to maya they said that may was going to be in professional bucket tipping competitions and maya was her replacement ??
1/? Going back to the first video on Granny Hair, the details of its deletion are pretty unclear. They were originally in the Sunshine Salon, the one deleted from the game with Fort Pinta update (22 january 2020) but the hairstyle was removed before that. The earliest mention of it being removed I could find is JSV Productions' video on all hairstyles' locations released on 22 july 2018. Around this time, on 10 april 2018 the infamous jojo siwa update launched and it was the update that introduced storage for hair, before this update you could have own only one hairstyle and make-up at a time.
2/? My theory is sso team didn't like the granny hairstyle and just deleted it when Jojo Siwa hair and hair storage was added. I've read this theory on some facebook groups before, maybe person sharing it had more evidence.
3/? OKAY LET ME COOK now that I've looked through some old videos (Michelle Spiderhall "SSO ~ All hairstyles!", Sasha Lavalock "New Jojo siwa Hair styles! SSO and aforementioned JSV Productions video) and compared hairstyles inside saloons and it became clear, it was a matter of limited space, as back then there were only 28 slots for hairstyles per saloon and both Fort Pinta salons were arleady full before Jojo Siwa, so they had to sacrifice a hairstyle. There were ten colors of granny hairstyle and ten colors of jojo siwa hair, so they deleted granny's, moved ponytail hairstyle from Beauty on the Beach to Sunshine Salon and put Jojo Siwa hair in BotB salon.
4/? (and deleted vibrant ginger short bob hairstyle, now THIS is lost media literally no one talked about, though I'm not sure if they deleted it at this point of the timeline but that's the most probable, it's back in the game but wasn't around for a long time and no one seemed to notice)
5/5 After Jojo Siwa event ended (15 august 2018) jojo hair just stayed around in the beauty on the beach. (as seen in Layla Pandaclover's "HAIRSTYLE HAUL 2019 (SSO)" - 24 june 2019), granny hair forever forgotten by the devs and sought after by the players, envied by all the people who weren't fortunate enough to be wearing it before this exact update are now fortunately back for us common folk, after all these years I can finally cosplay kofuku from noragami
not sure about rider health,but the horse health is still there. If you crash into enough obstacles on a low level account you WILL get teleported back to stable. About the players health, i vividly remember one of the finish quests... maybe the final one? if you failed to hook the fish properly it would take your health away
Admired - Killer Whitefish Killer Whitefish can bite the player character. There is no time limit for this quest, it is recommended that players wait for health to increase before setting the next hook. If player health drops to zero they will be transported to their home stable and fail the quest.
I’m pretty certain the Clock Tower music is Royalty free. I’ve heard it in other places and it hit me that it must have been royalty free music. (I also own the Battery Explosion T-Shirt if you want to see!)
I’ve bugged myself behind the gate. That whole area is above a test area kinda behind golden and the golden castle. I have photos somewhere. I will also mail you in game to see if you still want to see the battery shirt!
Yeah about the player health thing I’ve had my account since 2017 but only just now got sr 😭 I to didn’t listen to the onscreen instructions and it immediately sent me back to my home stable
oh my god! i havent heard about the potatowatchers in yeeears! i once tried to make an account using the surname, but literally every single name was taken LOL
i feel like i’m imagining this but does anyone remember these leg wraps that had i think 2 or 3 swiftness but they soon got rid of that?? i’m pretty sure it was the franziska black leg wraps
