The longform version of my short, with much more detail. Hope you find this useful!
I used this to troll my entire server lmao
This is going to be a terrible night…
The air is getting colder around you…
You feel vibrations from deep below…
(Note: I already knew this before watching this :] )
How did you do the air is getting colder without your name showing up? I want ro troll my friends lol
This is fantastic. I have been playing Terraria for years and I never knew this was possible. Thank you!
wonder if i can abuse this, there is this unfinished chest that has 2 different textures on it, if you hover your mouse above it your character turns into the default skin from wayyy back in the days and freezes becoming uniteractable, aka buff,dmg,summons are removed from the character. practically becoming immortal but bosses does not despawn. but centrys are exeption for this and they keep attacking.
just find it's item id and post in chat and hover above it with mouse? also makes perfect afk farm post hard mode, those pesky biome mimics no longer can eat you.
boutta attempt the calamity boss rush as the terra toilet
Bro is really hungry💀
you can troll your friends with [c/32FF82:Impending doom approaches…] in an announcement box
i remember using the colors and announcement boxes to troll my friends when i was little it was so great
Wow so useful.
It doesn’t works on switch i tried typing in color on a character’s name it does not work but typing an item works just fine
Is it possible to display projectiles instead of items with this text formatting?
I believe this is pc only or atleast not on console
Loved this. Knew a few of those but others not at such detail.
On mobile the only one I can make it work is the items ones, the colors just don't work or work differently and I don't know how
I was hoping you would go into detail more about this!
Thanks!
So that's how they do that!
Neat! I did not know this
It's like Terraria's version of emoji
all terraria youtubers watch eachother's videos and copy them.. been seeing this video for a month now
0:43 is a neat reference to cary explores time travel further secret message
"see I already knew this because in-"
that's what I would've said if i was some dumbass trying to flex terraria knowledge, but, though i already did know it i still enjoyed the video. great job!
Longweek. Forgot i watched this before
what will i do with this information?
my mind:troll!!troll!!troooooolll!!!!!!
Wow! I can't wait to play as 32 ultra bright torch
Great video this channel is very underrated.
3:19 how to do this trick?)
WHAT
Hi,can you pls tell me what texture are you using in the video?tks!
What kind of witchcraft is this
Doesn't work
I didnt think this would work, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it and it did
At 5:00 are your chests a different texture or are they just chests I've never seen before?
This has nothing to do with labor of love.
you're so nice bro. I appreciate the work. love this feature!!!
Is mostly a joke but…
About the items in chat. Is there a way to rotate/flip the item's image? And is there a way to overlap the image of two items?
I used to mess with these on servers on mobile a lot
The void bag?
