3DS Terraria 3DS 1.04 - issues thread

New 3ds 1.0.5 bugs:

1. hallowed biome with water becomes jungle biome with theme, frogs, arapaimas, etc. No jungle biome terrain around to cause it.

2. Items i may have placed in the environment vanish and do not go to inventory when i break it to pick up, it goes to my character but it isn' in my inventory. Ie. Piggy banks, seaweed planters, etc.

3. Game randomly crashes when opening the map screen.

4. Accessories , weapons/armor, tools, npc's etc that are in the console still need to be added, pocket watch is a must, as well as boreal and palm trees.

5. "gray text" seaweed states it is a summon for the pet turtle, using it does nothing.

6. Crafting of furniture that is in the console edition is missing from the 3ds version: tables, lamps, platforms, bathtubs, etc.

7. Lack of Internet multiplayer when all other editions of terraria on console, vita and pc do is ridiculous , especially when there are other games like monster hunter 4 , mario kart, etc, that do, and terraria 3ds obviously connects to the nintendo network for patches. Patching in Internet multiplayer is a must!

8. Crafting materials for tin bricks, lead bricks, tungsten bricks, platinum bricks, etc and crimson materials like crimsonite bricks are missing still.

9. Monsters sometimes spawn in uninhabited legal housing: Walls, blocks, doors, tables and chairs, light source are inthe room. It is annoying to have empty rooms waiting for an npc to have a monster spawn inside.

10. When i was near the hive in the jungle i was fighting a dragon hornet when the queen bee spawned, then 3-4 more spawned while i was fighting the first, within seconds of each spawn I had 4-5 queen bees in the jungle at the same time. I obviously died. I believe it happened in an expanded corrupt world. I did nothing to cause this.

#9 for me I can't find iron and any time I want it I need to make a new world to get some

I had that problem with titanium, there wasnt enough to get all i wanted.

Same with me the first I got was from a crate from fishing (which I am actually thankful for)
 
I am in early hard mode right now and feel titanium armor is waaay too weak for the mech bosses. The wpns i have: titanium bow, magic dagger, cutlass and dao of pow are NOT strong enough to survive properly . I heard the drill you make by combining the cobalt, orichalcon and titanium drills is missing so im wondering if wpns and armor are missing as well to help me survive the twins, destroyer and skeletron prime. Wpns are way too weak, same with armor with buffs from accessories and potions. I have attempted and died several times on these bosses and getting annoyed with lack of good equipment.

Worlds do not always have iron in them, there is a chance you will end up with lead instead. Same goes for finding Platinum instead of gold, tin instead of copper, adamantite instead of titanium

As for this, a lot of stuff you have mentioned about missing items like bricks, tables ect. is because the 3ds version of Terraria is only PC version 1.2.0. The rest of the consoles are on version 1.2.4. We have some items and features from 1.2.4 and 1.3, but it is very limited. The 3ds is essentially it's own version of the game and not relatable to the rest of the home consoles

Well that sucks for me
 
Not sure where to post this, but I've run into an issue on 1.05. I've had two life crystals now completely disappear from my inventory when I move them into my hotbar. Reading seems to indicate that this was an issue that was thought to be fixed, but was caused by having certain items in your hotbar. Current hotbar contents are:
  • Spear
  • Tin Bow
  • Copper Pickaxe
  • Copper Axe
  • Wooden Hammer
  • Wood Platform
  • Dirt Block
  • Blank (the space that the crystals have disappeared from)
  • Rope
  • Torch
I hope this helps.
 
I noticed that when you exit a world with either a torch or ice torch, on the title screen sometimes when your character walks around and stuff, the torch or ice torch appears to be tucked in their armpit which would cause some burns in real life. . .

To be more specific, the item that causes you to lose items is the one in the very first slot of your hotbar. So switch what is in the first slot for something else (put a different weapon in the first slot, the spear is most likely the bugged item). Even after swapping the item in the first slot, I recommend quickly selecting another item first before selecting the life crystal. After that, it should be fine, but there are other weapons later in the game that still cause this bug (but might make you lose other items, such as torches, ores, bars etc.). So every time you notice any items disappear from your inventory, swap out the item in your first slot of the hotbar to something else.

Also, it was never fixed or thought to have been fixed. They never updated the game even after we discovered how the bug was caused
 
I just made an account to say that the game does indeed crash on Terraria Expanded Mode when opening the map. I am so scared of it that I rarely do it anymore, and I save any time before I do. It doesn't seem to crash as much when you are working on your home, or building a hellevator, my guess is that it crashes when it tries to load all the newly discovered map.

This is on:
New 3DS XL US (latest firmware)
Terraria 3DS 1.0.5 (latest)
 
I think the tsunami is bugged lol, with the sacred arrows, the stars go upwards and not downwards...

idk it might have to go to the community to help get this version updated , and pipeworks might work on this version too since they were covering "all console versions"
 
The least they could do is confirm the version is no longer being updated so I dont want to keep coming here to check for news.

This so much ^

Or even if they said that they are postponing this update because they want to focus on the other versions first with their 1.3 update. Any news is better than nothing, but developers don't know how to communicate these days. They mention about the positive news, while all the negative feedback and news gets pushed aside. Our views are hidden away in the forums that only a small minority of people would find or look at, so no need to focus on them (apparently).
 
I wish they would update 3ds...
 
TLDR at the bottom.

Welp. It's been almost 8 months since the latest 1.05 patch was released for the 3DS. I just got into the game recently and fell in love with it, but I feel hindered a bit by the fact that some things are not yet in the game, and I would like to know if there is any official word (I have not found any) regarding the future of this game.

Admittedly, I know the 3DS's processing power is not much, but I don't think that is the issue here. Maybe someone can come and correct me about that. I applaud the fact that expanded mode was created for the New 3DS version, but I believe you could go much more into it. For example, the original 3DS (I'll call it o3DS) shipped with half CPU cores, half the RAM and almost half the VRAM as the New 3DS (n3DS.) I've read somewhere that Terraria is already taking the 3DS to its limit, but that might be graphically wise. There are many other quality-of-life improvements that could be done to the game (like adding alternative ways to obtain certain gear, for example.)

I would honestly BUY a DLC that included everything in 1.3 PC for the n3DS if the option arised, because, even though the 3DS version is more expensive than the PC one, it has much less content. You hit a wall after killing Ocram and there are a few pieces of gear that I would love to be able to have. I am also talking about expert mode but I know that it might be extremely difficult to implement.

I guess my TLDR is this: I would love official word from Terraria and Codeglue regarding the future of this game on the 3DS. I would also love that they separated the versions and made upgrades (like 1.3 PC) on the n3DS if possible. Your silence is a bit frustrating for me and many other people. Was 1.05 the last update? Will there be more? There are game breaking bugs in 1.05 right now, so even addressing those would be a good step forward. I know that this post will get lost somewhere, probably never replied to, but I love this game enough to take some time off of my day to write all of this. I just hope you respect the playerbase enough to let us know your official stance, whatever it might be.

Once again, thanks for all your work.

EDIT: Also, I forgot to mention that the 2DS XL (with the same processing power as the N3DS was released this month (last month in AUS) so it might be good monetarily for you guys to keep this game relevant, since new consoles capable of playing Expanded mode are still being released.
