Fastest ending playthrough (under 7 in-game days). US version, emulated due to laziness, as I didn't want to fiddle with syncing the audio on the capture device.

Stream Title: Prossessed by Dracula
Live Notification: Laurels in your soup enhances its aroma.
Stream Description: "US version. Trying for the fastest ending, but more than likely will miss it by a day or two because I don't have the route perfectly memorized, or if I game over and need currency. Also watch me most likely accidentally drown in both lakes as I forget to stop moving after screen transitions.
I'll skip a couple unnecessary items on purpose, hopefully saving me some health, hearts and time. Ideally going to try avoid excessive farming, but I may do a tiny bit if I need hearts or if I'm close to a level up and need heals."

All monkeys caught playthrough, ignored Specter Coins. First 5 minutes after the opening stuff are spent trying to fix the desync, check the chapters to skip. PAL version with the European dub. Played on an actual PS1 since the PAL version of this game has some sort of wack copy protection that causes it to not work on PS3s.
The capture device used was still a recent acquisition back then so I struggled a lot with getting the sync right. I thought I had it fixed before the stream, but evidently I was wrong.

The stream had to be split into two parts due to YouTubes 12 hour limit. The stream ran just shy of 15 hours, so I split it at a random screen transition in the middle to make them about even in length.

Stream Title: The Greatflow Chronicle
Live Notification: The D is silent because there isnt one.
Stream Description: Physical PAL version played on a PS3. Regular playthrough, will try to remember most side stuff except all the merchant stuff or the card collection, since I dont want to fiddle with item drops and Sceptre Forces all day. Im hoping to do the game in one go, but its just long enough that I might need a second day.
Sorry about the quiet FMVs, but thats just how the game is. The game has moments where it drops the framerate below 60, but any notable stuttering is likely caused by my hardware.
Ah, Granstream Saga, a game whose demo I played obsessively in my youth. Its an okay game, but theres something special about it that makes me feel warm when I play it. Listen to that phenomenal music, too. The games also a spiritual successor to the Blazer trilogy.

Though this is very much not a completionist run, all the Chronoscepter pieces will be collected and some other secrets will be visited for fun.
I usually tend to play games at a slower and more boring pace, but the movement in Turok flows so well that I cant help but drift and swooce everywhere.
I just wish the quality wasnt so mushy. Ill have to see if theres a way to have the local recordings be higher bitrate than the stream. I mean, I could have a secondary recording software, but thatd probably have an additional impact on performance and my PCs been pretty sluggish for a while now.
Stream title reference is probably obvious, but its playing on the name of the game and the best way to move around in it.

Stream Title: Turok: Diagonal Runner
Live Notification: Zippin and zoomin with TalSet
Stream Description: Plan is to just do a quick-ish playthrough. Gonna be skipping and missing quite a bit of optional areas, hopefully not forgetting any keys or Chronoscepter pieces. I should remember them by now.
Turok: Dinosaur Hunter was one of those games I took way too long to finally play. I wasnt into FPS games when it was new, and N64 games were crazy expensive. Its since become one of my favorite shooters ever. The movement and weapons are just so good.

![Terraria (v1.4.5.6) - Revealing Walls Bug [FIXED in v1.4.5.7]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ubfnvJK2G_o/mqdefault.jpg "Terraria (v1.4.5.6) - Revealing Walls Bug [FIXED in v1.4.5.7]
UPDATE 2026 Aug 20: The v1.4.5.7 update fixed this. The monolith still gives extra wall visibility, but now its closer to what it looks like on the other lighting modes.
Original description:
Something I stumbled onto playing the game. Im sure its a bug, but for all I know it could not be, or is already old news, I havent followed the game much after my last run 10+ years ago.
Basically its a combination of things that gives you effectively the ability to peek through any wall your camera can reach. You only need two things, though admittedly theyre a little bit of an ass-ache to get from scratch.
The effect spreads faster with more light sources on screen, so an area with a few torches will light up noticeably faster than having just one source. Ironically, Hallow blocks (Pearlstone, Pearlsand, etc.) are some of the darkest blocks due to a distinctly reduced amount of sparkling on them, staying mostly in shadow even with plenty of torches around.
This is an *incredible* tool for purifying/containing the evil in your world, too. Youll basically get a clean minimap of the entire surroundings so you know whether or not your Clentaminator got everything, and it also lets you build a much clearer border to contain further spread without needing to hope you didnt miss anything.
Basic how-to:
-1) In your Video settings, set the Lighting mode to either *Retro* or *Trippy*, this is mandatory for the effect
-2) Locate and acquire the following (no specific order)
-2a) A night vision source (Night Owl Potion, Night Vision Helmet)
-2b) An Angel Statue
-2c) The Aether mini-biome
-2d) Some torches, or any other light source to kindle the sparks
-3) Dunk the Angel Statue in Shimmer to transmogrify it into an Aether Monolith
-4) Equip the Aether Monolith (Works on Social slots) and consume/equip your night vision source
-5) Wait for the sparkling to start propagating, gradually filling the darkness with light, youll need a light source on-screen for it to begin (screen will turn pitch-black with no light sources), this will also reveal the areas on your map
-5a) OPTIONAL: If you have the Binoculars, you can scan a larger area from one location
The old lighting modes are required for this to work, *Color* and *White* produce much subtler sparkles; you wont get anywhere near this level of clarity on those modes.
Funny thing, this is my second bug video regarding Terrarias lighting, the previous one being in 2011, also being far less interesting or useful. Also also, this is my first Terraria video where I actually have the music playing instead random overly loud music to supplement forgetting to turn the real music on.
