@@muffinman3052I don’t think they turned “back into” zombies, rather they only turned into cows when loading a backup. The sequence of events is probably: -zombie clusters spawned because of the version weirdness discussed in this video (A and B) -zombie clusters dispersed for some reason (C) -zombies died in sunlight (D) But because beta minecraft was glitchy, zombies got turned into cows when the world is reloaded.

I actually believe their PC could of blue-screened, probably ran out of memory trying to load immense amounts of mobs simultaneously. Having between 2-4Gb of RAM on avg I can totally see that being a plausible issue.

The number E represents entity counts, the first number is the number being rendered at once, and the second number is the total the *client* is aware of. At 9:55 that is 22 thousand cows. As others have stated, there used to be a bug where entities spawned under certain conditions did not count towards the mob count. Minecraft always tries to aggressively maintain around 70 hostile mobs (probably different in older versions.) So it would spawn a batch of creepers, the hostile mob count wouldn't increase, so it would spawn more later. At some point either through save corruption or update corruption the entity ID for these creepers got set to cows. I assume cows is probably the fail-safe ID for conversion of entities. The intense lag you feel is minecraft trying to calculate very very long ticks, trying to process entity collusion. This is why watchdog was later implemented forcing ticks to be limited to a maximum length of ticks. Funny enough, MCEdit would easily fix this, as it has the ability to delete entities in mass. I experienced a similar issue on one of the first servers I hosted. instead of creepers it was squids. A single chunk was multiple megabytes of squid. Entities used to also be saved at whole number positions which would often cause them to clip into fences and thus be able to break out of pens. This bug took many many tries to fix, and is probably still not fully fixed to this day.

It's possible that it was zombies instead of creepers because of the chat log saying it was a zombie apocalypse and that zombies used to drop feathers on death. So it's possible that zombies spawned on 1 block and lagged the game, and after an update it turned into cows, then another update reverts them back to zombies and they all died because of daylight.

I thought this was going to be some generic ARG, but that was actually really interesting. You definitely missed some huge aspects of it though. One of the biggest glitches that happened here was the strange "mob conversion", for lack of a better term. We see this in the written story (creepers turning to cows), but without the later evidence that just seems like a lie like the quartz structure. However, in save D there were feathers at all the locations of the cows, and at that point in time there were chat logs about a "zombie apocalypse" and zombies everywhere. Here's the kicker; in Beta 1.3 zombies dropped feathers. Given this, what happened now makes a little more sense: The corrupted world generated a massive amount of creepers, which then either converted to cows or despawned (since the cows were all stacked together at first, I believe the cows spawned separately after the creepers). The cows then lagged out the server quite a bit, and eventually unpacked. Then the final glitch happened; the cows converted to zombies (what was mentioned in the chat logs), and the zombies all burned in the sun and dropped feathers, shortly before Save D occurred. And the last thing; given this was some kid in 2011, the PC used at the time was probably horrible even by their standards. I find it hard to believe the PC wouldn't bluescreen near all those cows.

Reminds me of a bug I had on my creative world. The nether and the end doesn't exist in my world despite me going there in creative mode many times before. Even custom dimensions with datapacks I could enter, but the two vanilla dimensions were a no go. In fact the terrain is still saved and could theoretically be accessed, I was wondering how it happened and it intrigued me. It was a caused by a game breaking bug. The cause of it was due to the of the prerelease snapshots for saves and cliff part 1 corrupting the world generation file, causing it to be wiped and be blanked, minecraft at least tried to alleviate the problem by loading the last set of settings used or try to generate a new set of settings, but even that failed, possibly being a custom superflat world, or messed with datapacks. The world was impossible to open, 5 years and it was gone, but I never deleted it, because maybe when caves and cliffs part 1 fully came out, it would fix the bug with it's upgrade features. When it did nothing happened, it kept showing the error that the map generations settings have failed to load and gave me to option to 'disable the data pack' or go back to title. Since it was an actual vanilla minecraft issue, clicking the 'disable the data pack' button didn't do anything and it kept showing the error since there wasn't a datapack to disable to begin with. I was somewhat distraught, I had some good redstone stuff I made and command block things, as well as pixel art and random buildings I've created, but it was all for naught. When caves and cliffs part 2 came out, it strangely fixed the bug, the world was able to load without showing the error screen. However when I tried to enter the nether and the end neither portal worked. I fell right through the end portal, and the nether portal never transported me no matter how long I waited, not even in creative mode. So while i can now reenter my world it was only the overworld. I checked the reason and it was because the game only 'upgraded' the overworld to the newer overworld height, so it generated the relevant JSON data tags associated with such a change and it was a superflat void world just like before somehow 'fixing' the overworld. When I checked the generation settings the nether and end were not included in the map generation settings at all. They are still blanked out to this day. Funny enough I could 'manually' re-add the Nether and End via a datapack and could get them back again, but it was a silly bug regardless. And please, always backup your saves. That was the ONE time I didn't backup a save and nearly wiped a world.

Yahoo, Retro is back! And what a fun little mystery to unravel indeed; I think you said this once in a previous video, but it seems that a big part of the mystery of early Minecraft creepypastas is no longer possible to recreate due to our understanding of bugs. Inexplicable occurrences, such as chunk errors or mob spawning issues, would have been strange and frightening to young and/or inexperienced players, who would have blamed them on supernatural phenomena. Additionally, Minecraft itself was a new game then, lending more credibility to the mystery. Now, we can simply attribute these things to incompatibilities between updates and corrupted data. The naivete is gone. But hey, at least we still have these leftover gems to explore, and we can suspend our disbelief with ARGs and relive the romance of the haunted Minecraft world.

Keep it man you’re easily my favorite KZreadr and I constantly binge watch your vids

We had the same things back on Beta 1.9.6 but with skeletons instead of cows, after that I figured I should use /stop instead of just closing a server window

Okay, I'm less than a minute in and this is crazy coincidental. This morning I had a long wacky dream that took a lot of turns. One of the main turning points happened to be when me and my group were in a hotel coming up with a game plan. A villain showed up and I escaped the hotel. When I came back, there was an obscene amount of Minecraft mobs (Before this, Minecraft was not involved whatsoever). Most of the mobs were Zombies but some were Creepers as well. I could barely walk without taking damage because of the severe density of the hoard within the hotel.

dude your videos are always so high quality and interesting, I love your video style, keep up the crazy good videos!

This is my favorite Minecraft channel, it gives such a mysterious vibe and a very unique feeling, something no other Minecraft youtuber has. I would actually love to watch all his videos over and over.

This is so mysterious I’m not even that far in and I already can’t stop watching

the thumbnail as an album cover would go HARD

Seeing some of the chat log and the players just chatting is kind of giving me the feels. (did not read all of it though.)

Always look forward to your vids so i have something to look at when im bored 😄

The main thing you left out here is why did the cows seemingly originate as zombies towards the beginning of Brabantia C, and then turn back into them by the start of Brabantia D? Clearly the "zombie apocalypse" in C followed by thousands of feathers (zombie drop assumedly from them burning in the daylight) a week later alludes to the cows instead having been zombies at 2 seperate periods in time.

I am glad to see this mystery resurface with discussion after 10 years :)

The creepy music and ominous monologue about the amount of cows "a tsunami of cows" combined with the cows and their ridiculous, goofy faces all looking at you makes me burst out laughing 😂

I feel like the constant videos being released is hinting to a big video coming out soon, I think he's trying to keep us interested and then boom, hit us with an awesome video

Imagine if someone released a book from this video. Exploring a Cursed Minecraft Beta Server (brabantia.rar): Perfect for Minecrafters Kids and Adults, Top Builder Ideas, Graphic novel.

you forgot "guidebook"

I clicked so fast, I love these videos- I'm gonna enjoy this one dude!

This is interesting to me because it reminds me of an incident that me and my younger sister experienced when we were children. We were playing on a LAN survival world, and we had set up our homes at an NPC village. One day, when we got onto the LAN server, we found that there were pigs EVERYWHERE. We don't know what had happened to cause them, and yet, they were there. We couldn't even go up close to them to kill them because our games lagged to such a degree that it was unplayable (our computer systems back then were really crappy). So we resorted to going into Creative mode and shooting them with arrows, and eventually, I got the idea to drop Splash Potions of Harming II on them from above. We did kill them all in the end, and there was XP and raw pork littered all over the ground. Our games still lagged like crazy when we tried to collect any of it, though, just due to the sheer amount of them clustered all over the place in a 30-block radius. At the time, we had thought that Herobrine had done it. Especially considering how, while we were trying to kill the pigs, there were a few times where we died (to hostile mobs or something, I can't remember), and every time we died, a message came up in the chat that said "Ouch. That looked like it hurt." We thought it was Herobrine taunting us, so we were sending messages in the chat, yelling at Herobrine to go away and leave us alone. Looking back on this incident now, I know that it was likely just a glitch or bug, but us thinking that Herobrine was the cause of it is honestly pretty funny to me.

Always a great day when RGN uploads!

9:24 was genuinely a creepy moment paired with the music, the beta Minecraft's night and that unimaginable sea of cows

I am honetly am shocked a creepy corrupted minecraft world was actually real.

9:29 I was interested in and enjoyed the entire video, but this part you did with the cows is just golden. a sea of cows; a bovine tsunami.

*_We had the SAME problem in unmodded single player!_* My then-sister had a world that was lost to a tsunami of sheep. The moment you loaded the world a sheep would suddenly start duplicating themselves and splitting off into hundreds of other sheep until the game crashed. Our corruption happened in 1.7.3 on the Minecraft website, and it's honestly calming to know that we weren't alone in this experience. With a little googling, I couldn't find anyone else who had the same problem.

This entity duplication bug has been documented by a KZreadr called Bugmancx. He also provides two ways of deleting the entities. Minecraft the journey episode 114.

When you hear “I’ve stumbled across” you know you’ll be getting something good

You should make a second video about Mark101

this is a great video! looking forward to see more videos like this!

Lol I totally thought this was an ARG video. I was wondering when the creepy fictional stuff was finally gonna be introduced all the way up until the halfway mark when I was finally like "Wait, this is just a real glitched world? They were asking for help in earnest?" Haha great video as always though!

Weirdo

I experienced something like this when I was a kid, but with chickens, in beta 1.7. I also saw a weird "cube" appear, though I remember it being made of either dirt or cobblestone, I can't remember if it was a chunk error or what (But it seemed smaller than a chunk), but right next to my house there were hundreds of chickens spawning. I took pictures, but i never figured out how to upload them because I was a dumb kid and eventually lost that laptop :(

These videos are so good... keep it up mate!

My god I remember I used to be subscribed to spicy crap 666. It was literally just because I thought his name was funny as I couldnt understand anything he said except for the swear words. that is a blast from the past.

I've seen this happen before in bug man's let's play

I live for these kinds of videos thank you Retro 🙏

Yes another retrogamingnow video! I have something to listen too while grinding in terraria lol

I think the only true embellishment is likely the Quartz structure mentioned. It is possible that they were playing on a weaker system with 4GB of RAM (not uncommon in 2014) and the system BSoDed when attempting to load after exhausting the memory.

Ah, obscure minecraft mysteries, exactly what I subscribed for

You don't know how much I needed this 😢😢❤❤🎉🎉

FINALLY. I love your videos. You made my day!!!

me when "I stumbled across":

I definitely experienced this in my series as mentioned by a couple of other commentors. I also discovered the bug, but in Beta 1.8, and dug into the details in MCEdit and NBTExplorer to work out what was going on. Something was causing the game to spawn in passive mobs at the same precise location but multiplied to thousands. I encountered the issue numerous times and had to routinely address it unti lthe problem eventually went away.

You should look over the "INTERLOPER" series made by Anomidae, it's very unique compared to all other old 'retro' type content. It's not based off minecraft but about the source engine. Highly recommend

OMG Please do more of these I loved it !!!

Its good to see you again retro. I have a question though... are you going to do another Nguyen (Mark101) analysis video...?

I had a phone call *from an old friend* who kindly requested me to send some forces down this town, I agreed as they promised to give me the territory later on... Sadly things didn't go as planned. They gave the land over, but we weren't able to properly colonize it before something occurred.

This is one of the most perplexing Minecraft videos I’ve ever seen. Well done

At first I thought it was just another elaborate ARG, but this is actually more interesting. I remember sometime around 2016-ish on my own minecraft world where I had updated it, only to find that a random chunk from elsewhere in the world had inexplicably copied itself and replaced another chunk that had a structure I had built on it. I was creeped out at first, but then I was mad that the thing that I built had been deleted and replaced with a random world chunk.

can we just appreciate how retro fills us with content?

always a good day when retrogaming uploads!

love to see a new upload!! keep it up!
