Alright, got a full copy but I know next to nothing about Steam. I hear bad things about it all the time >.> Anyway, I just need Steam to install it, right?

Started playing just an hour or so ago.... I feel so lost.

I also wish it had gamepad support, I'm not used to this keyboard/mouse stuff and I think my hands are going to fall off.

This is a great game and I would recommend it.

But there is one big thing that I feel that I have to mention.

This game has been abandoned by it's creators and they have moved on to other products. So don't expect any problems to ever get fixed.

This is part of the problem with PC games. People expect PC games to give infinite updates to the game for free after they have paid for it. But without paid DLC, the devs often have no incentive to make more or better content or drag their feet. (LFD2 I'm looking at you!)

But otherwise great game and if you don't look anything up on the wiki, you could easily put in 100 hours getting to the end of the game. I can breeze through all of the content in a few hours, but I'm insanely good at the game and know where to go.

yea it kinda sucks that they dropped it after having so many plans. but, i think terraria was left in a pretty good spot. there are no real problems that I've run into anymore and the game is enormous after the hard mode update.

oh and about the wings... best item ever XD i got my character a full clown costume (modeled after kefka from FFVI) and black wings. they are also really hard to get >.> so something good to work towards

After reading this thread the other day, I decided to play it since I had some free time. My friend had bought it for the both of us when it was released but we never figured out how to multiplayer so we never played it. I decided to play single player yesterday and I have about 20 hours already. I really love this game.

My question is, "What should I do now that I have the shadow armor?" I just tried Skeletron but he was whooping me and I fear trying again. Any suggestions?

yea molten gear would be one thing you could do before skeletron. although the skeleton is very possible with shadow gear, it just takes a lot of preparation with ranged weapons, setup land, and potions... lots of potions (for defence and other stuff).

but he is well worth beating, there is tons of stuff to get in the dungeon... so you can try for molten gear first but it may be much more difficult, the imps that throw fire balls can destroy you (plus all the other stuff).

Just download GameRanger, create a friend list and have people join your channel (or right click their name in your friend list and send an invite). Then you start the game and after you enter the map others can get on the game (it starts theirs up after it detects you are on the game).

It's what I've used, works perfectly and takes like 5 minutes to set up the first time, then ~30 sec afterwards.

So, I've made a tunnel in my world that goes directly to the Underworld but mining hellstones is the hardest thing ever even with the Obsidianskull

yea exactly XD its very challenging. hell used to be the final end game in terraria and people would hold off going there til they did everything else... its still like that i guess, but that's more of the half way point in the game that people put off till they fight the final boss to unlock hardmode.

so I'd just recommend trying to take down skeletron however you can. farm more hearts and get rocket boots if you don't have them already

Found a Skeleton Statue and read that they spawn Skeletons when wired, who drop Hooks, which can be made into Grappling Hooks. My problem is HOW DO I WIRE THIS THING? Its not as simple as Minecraft and Redstone ; ;

you are able to wire stuff and make pipes when you rescue the mechanic from the dungeon (after you kill skeletron). she is usually just a ways into the dungeon... hell if you are lucky you can run into the dungeon and find her before you get booted XD though its really rare.

EDIT: or... did you already get her and wanna know how to work it all?

I got it working! :D This Grappling Hook is infinitely useful!


Are there any mods for Terraria? Or patches to fix stupid stuff, like log out and log on at spawn instead of where you were last?

grappling hooks are great XD and you can upgrade it later on.

first off, you can set a spawn point by creating a bed and putting it into a safe room (enclosed room with a door and back wall). you just click the bed and it sets spawn point.

as far as mods. yea i believe there are a lot actually, mostly skin mods. should be able to find them on their main website forums... here it is.

(btw, since it took me a while to find out XD. you can use wires to mess with anything that can be interacted with, like doors. you can also connect it to lights.)

Trying to install tConfig so I can try this out, but I keep getting this error when I try to do so:

Runtime Error: Access is Denied

Yes, It runs as administrator.
How to fix? .-.

Following that link, I go up to Step #8 and it does not pop up with the Terraria Game Launcher GUI to do the rest of the steps.

I followed the directions exactly.

Fresh install go!

Lets try this again then. Copy/pasting instructions to NotePad, then deleting each step as I do it.

Gave up on that for the time being. I got a few other maps that didnt require modding to kill time with :P

A Boy and His Hook is pretty fun :P

Also on my single player toy around world I got the message:
"A meteorite has landed!"

Full Meteor Armor now! Woot~
