Source engine out of bounds: funny little Easter egg Creation engine out of bounds: essential NPCs holding the game together

34:13 Don't quote me on this, but I remember hearing a story that there was some silly dev drama behind the scenes where a programmer was tired of artists forgetting to replace placeholder art, so he tried making something fucked up that he KNEW they couldn't ignore and would have to replace. Only for them to end up not replacing it with anything else.

41:45 I love how both Slender The Arrival and P.T did something that is so simple and yet, makes those games even more terrifying.

19:46 Hey! That's my video lol 👽

43:55 So to explain this for anyone who doesn't know; The veteran's center is a big part of one of the villains's stories- We see it during cutscenes so I'd assume that's why it's fully modeled. The creepy song is also lore-related to why we can't go in there, but it's interesting to hear there's actual LOOT in there and we still can't reach it, even if we've finished the game!

The Skywell-27 Borderlands 3 Easter egg (around 24:30) that “creature” is actually just the end of one of the weapons the player was carrying. A lot of the weapons in the game have moving alien parts and glow slightly and that’s exactly what’s going on in the clip. Still a weird bug but it’s just the camera being inside a weapon model.

5:26 So for Skyrim, I am pretty sure that tower was included to be seen when Meridia's Beacon brings you up into the sky and you can see far off into the distance over the mountains, and the White-Gold Tower should be visible from there. I could be wrong but that's what always made sense to me. I think it's also visible on the map screen if you rotate the camera in the right way.

Out of bounds Easter eggs should be a requirement for every game.

Thanks for showing my channel in your video ! It's really appreciated :) I have recently found this channel and have been watching a lot of your stuff lately, it's great stuff !

Could've also called this video "Oddheader - compilation"

The Veteran Centre in Far Cry 5 is easily explained It's the location used by Jacob Seed to try and brainwash people into fighting for the cult and the interior is used during moments in the game where Jocob had kidnapped Rook to try and brainwash them The song that plays is the same one the game plays during scripted moments when you get knocked out (I don't know how exactly) and taken to the centre where they attempt (And succeeded to a degree) All the shit shown beneath the map is shit that loads in during those scripted brainwashing sequences During one of the last missions involving Jacob you escape from the centre and have a massive gun fight As for why you can't explore the place once you kill Jacob I'm not really sure of, before you kill him it wouldn't make sense to allow the player into the area has Jacob would still be actively using it to brainwash people

I wish you would actually explain what purpose a lot of these out of bounds rooms have. The Half Life 1 "Gaben Room" for instance houses enemies that are later teleported in. The Source Engine had no way to spawn enemies so it keeps them out of bounds until they are used, this is a very documented fact and that room is a famous example. The "why" is so interesting to a lot of people, for instance in the SOMA portion, you could make note of the fact that the game had a COMPLETELY different story and this was part of a cut dream sequence involving Simon's girlfriend. Making note of these facts would just really improve the overall quality and informational aspect of these videos. I know a lot of these Easter eggs and left-over assets don't have an elaborate backstory but little explanations like these are fascinating to so many people.

I’m just glad ppl are still making iceberg videos

Gratz to oddheader for making 90% of this video.

I still remember finding the wall no clip with the sliding statue in Gannon's castle, OOT. I was 13 at the time and showed it to my friends parents and even my grandmother who actually bought me the N64. I can't remember ever finding a known bug like that on my own again. But man it was so cool finding that exact bug on RU-vid over 20 years later. Grandma thought I was a genius when I showed her kids today found it all over again. RU-vid and Facebook didn't eve exist back then.

19:23 those statues were actually part of a community vote on twitter where the fans picked a statue to be added to the slums, the choices were Crane, Jade, a Volatile, and Gazi but idk if they ever actually added one also 43:58 don't you literally explore the vet center for one of the story missions? It isn't really an out of bounds secret

Man the White-Gold tower inclusion in Skyrim is actually really cool. Devs didn’t have to include that but just in case someone was exploring the out of bounds, boom little Easter egg.

Capcom then: Decided to cut falling head from RE2 for being too graphic Capcom now: *"Hey, you wanna see some guy's fucking jaw hanging on by muscle fibers?"*

Everyone should go support Shesez. He does this out of bounds stuff and I heard hes having trouble with his channel recently and will hae to resell his house or something. His channel is pretty cool. Dont wanna see it die.

You didn't mention why the Dev Room in Fallout 76 was so controversial and only used it as an opportunity to talk about the bad launch of the game and to bad mouth the game itself. For those who don't know the dev room contained every single item in the game including rare items, this is of course pretty bad since it’s an online game and gave many players an unfair advantage. There was also a human NPC inside the room and at the time the developers said that there was no way they would be able to have human NPCs in the game.

personally one of my favorite OOBs is in ESO, on vvardenfell. there's a way to get up on the cliff-face on the road north of lake amaya and wiggle your way onto the slopes of the volcano, and with some perseverence you can get into the volcano caldera itself. there's even a piece of rock to stand on up there. i've been there a couple times and taken some pictures too.

24:52 theres a type of weaponry in borderlands 3 where there is alien matter attached to the end of the barrel, that is the "worm" you are seeing here, likely the gun rendering before the rest of the map. And specifically to help this along, Skywell for whatever reason is a super glitchy map in terms of random things that arent suppose to occur there. For example, upon coming to this place or revisiting, youll hear your current player character talk in the speech bubble, which is something that only happens from specific logs from the player characters, but otherwise never in normal gameplay.

That Life is Strange one isn't even creepy. Unreal Engine, like Unity, can use something called a 'light probe' to gather lighting information at different points so that the engine can use that data to properly light dynamic models (like an animated character or a player) in scenes where the light information is baked into the scene. A dynamic model will always ask for the information from the closest light probe, and since there's no reason for developers to place light probes outside of the playable area, Max and this sitting model are pulling that information from the closest existing probe otherwise. This appears to be a probe or series of probes that either exist just outside of a source of light or probes intentionally given zero lighting data to pull from. As far as the sitting figure goes, I assume that the person sitting in the window was supposed to be visible at some point in development, probably sitting in their bedroom window (in a higher detail version of that house) doing some sort of idle animation while Chloe and/or Max climb in or out of Chloe's window. When that was scrapped, the model was left there sitting in the same place they would have by oversight.

I know you couldn't include everything that Oddheader showed on his channel, but I am EXTREMELY disappointed that the skybox sphere in Halo 2 wasn't mentioned.

The maggot-faced girlfriend from SOMA was intended for a scrapped dream sequence. You essentially walk through the main protagonist Simon's old apartment bedroom over and over as every loop causes it to become overtaken by foliage, and you end up in this small circular forest area where the player's empty grave is, and their girlfriend Ashley is standing nearby in a black mourner's dress. When you approach her, she turns around and reveals her face, then the dream abruptly ends. The developers just reused the model for the final dream sequence they went with, but kept her back to the player. Check out Jay davidspackage's SOMA: Data Recovery video for more context. That game has a ton of wild cut content, not that is SOMA isn't cosmically horrifying to begin with.

Glitch City isn't a single location in the GSC Pokemon games, but a result of trying to read the wrong code as map data. There's an actual term for this, but I forget what it is, lol. I never tried this on my physical cart, partially bc I never had a GBC era game shark, lol. I think I played with it a bit on emulator, but can't recall for certain.

2 things, first the gaben texture is also used in on a rail in the first room where you see the rocket if you noclip to one of the blast doors and second you can actually get the dead larry screen in lbp3 on a certain level but i forgot it you just need to kill him and block the respawn point

Regarding Skywell-27, that's the "Alien Barrel" available for some guns. It could be possible when the cutscene failed to load, it potentially revealed a trigger maybe?

I'm surprised the Freezer isn't on this, it was an unintentional glitch in Saints Row 2 if you go out of bounds in a specific level, after a few minutes of walking around a shadow of a figure spawns in and the game crashes. If I remember correctly it's supposed to be an enemy spawning next to you but it unintentionally crashes the game due to being out of bounds.

80% of these entries are just stuff Odd Header has covered

bro ty sm for uploading i live for this‼️

Hey small thing for that LBP3 one, getting the creative tools in that specific level isn't a glitch, it's part of the 'popit puzzle' quests which gives you a little hard hat which gives you restricted create mode (hence why the player has to stair way up and not just fly up there). Getting Larry stuck will also trigger it as the game considers the puzzle tutorial not progressing meaning that Larry has died, this part of the puzzle was supposed to show players how to rewind. I'm guessing it was cut because it's really easy to accidentally squish characters when you're just messing around with the tools, so punishing the player for an accident that means they're undoing their work might make the puzzles more tedious especially for people who started on the older games and already know what they're doing. Or they just thought killing Larry was a little too morbid lol.

Fallout 3 and New Vegas use the gamebryo engine not the creation engine The creation engine IS a modified/more next gen version of gamebryo though

Idk if it’s necessarily fair to just take discoveries from Oddheader and Shesez and compile them into an iceberg like this. I don’t think they’ll come after you, because they seem like nice guys who wouldn’t want to cause a fuss, and you did credit them, but just know this comes off as lazy. Especially since you have a habit of not even going a little into depth about the things you are describing.

I love how you put MGS music in the background. Really fits the theme of Iceberg videos.

IIRC with the Slender one, this was added into the game because of en exploit where if you went to the very edge of the map, Slenderman couldn't get to you, essentially creating a safe zone. So the Devs updated the game to have you fall out of the map if it ever detected you doing so and trigger the message and Game Over. I guess it happens anytime you're out of the map

doom's level editors don't assign textures to faces of sectors that are in the ground or ceiling when created. so when marking a sector as an elevator, door, or simply raising/lowering one you have to apply textures to those faces.

8:42 the far lands also existed in bedrock (mobile devices only) until far more recently, being removed only in 1.17.20, which meant you could visit them using shaders and textures, and even with the new nether biomes, as they'd spawn in all dimensions. To this day, the stripe lands, the boundaries generating at around 16 million blocks from spawn, are still around. And even though they are what once was the second layer after the far lands, people have always and still do confuse them with the actual far lands.

The Veteran Center (i think that is how you Wirth that) is part of the Story line of Far Cry One Mission even plays there That's why it does have completed texture and one of the End Bosses Hides there so that is why you can't go there the thing with the Music also is explained in the story of the game so yeah not much of a mystery there if you played the game anyway

you are so good at curating this stuff, man

My brother and i used to play splash down all the time. the squid scared us but it was funny seeing us get thrown so we spent most of our time doing that

Always a good day when sourcebrew uploads

Can’t believe you came out with yet another awesome topic I’m familiar with. Keep up the good work, SourceBrew!

I think the eyepatch for Ron the Narrator is referencing Deathstroke, another character Perlman voices

We're finally getting into the miscellaneous and oddly specific icebergs

I sometimes find exploring out of bounds creepy. I don't know why but I get this feeling of helplessness and eeriness whenever I explored out of the usual playeable area. Especially when it's underwater out of bounds and the water is dark it creeps me out so much.

amazing video! really interesting and unique iceberg

Another thing about Fallout 76's Dev Room that deserves to be mentioned is that, at the time it was discovered, there were no human NPCs in the game, something for which the game caught a lot of flak. When the dev room was found people used the fact that Woody, the test NPC in there, is the only human NPC in the game to criticize this flaw of the game even further.

There are a ton of random out of bounds things in TF2 which can be found using the replay camera or programs like SFM. -In some maps if you clip behind spawn there are rooms guarded by Solider which when entered show Heavy and Scout looking at images of the robots from the Mann Vs Machine gamemode before it's release. -Another one I like is in the Banana Bay map if you clip under the floor of the BLU base there are bananas chilling out having a summoning ritual.

I remember finding a pic of the Naughty Dogs devs in Jak 3 hidden on a wall in an out of bounds area after looking at a gaming magazine and that was so cool.

Opening eith the mgs3 caution music is just perfect

The use of mgs music caught me off guard because I am playing mgs2

The Spongebob one is the type of shit that would make rounds in the playground back when I was a kid

44:49 that image is the background for the loading screen! Each region has a different one corresponding to the character that leads the region, and that one is Jacob's/ Whitetail Mountain's

Using the MGS 3 game over theme is a nice touch 👌

The one about borderlands 2 was actually slightly wrong, the missing texture was actually inside the map and completely viewable without breaking bounds. and additionally, this is the only instance of this missing texture being used in the whole game as everything else uses a different texture, which has lead people to speculate that this was actually an intended easter egg. Also as for the bl3 one at 25:00 ish, you can ask literally any borderlands fan to find out that is an alien barrel for a gun. More than likely the player or a co op partner had that gun and the game just glitched out when loading and the camera was in a werid spot, showing the inside of the barrel.

The swimming fish in THPS3 can be seen through regular means. You can't see them on the PC version since the water has no transparency. The water has transparency on the PS2 version tho, and you can see the fish there. It's probably like that on the GC and Xbox versions, too. So yeah, although very neat, it's not an out-of-bounds detail

Another good old video by sourcebrew in my downloads

GTA San Andreas OOB is what really interested me in liminal spaces

I remember an out of bounds place in carnivores cityscape that had small box rooms filled with random items and npcs. One i remember was a room filled with a bunch of agents and one oviraptor. I might me misremembering but i was little at the time.

Is the song used for transitioning from tiers the mission loading ost from MGS Peacewalker or am i tripping. It really sounds simillar when heard in 2x speed.

So weird how these things always gave me the most ominous eerie feeling. Like as though these things weren’t made by devs but are actually conscious entities that created themselves within the simulated world of these games.

@27:04 its a song titled called " Only Time "

SourceBrew The boat people are jn the ps5 remaster too with a sticker saying "Did you miss us?" a develepoer confirmed its a refference/easteregg to how the ps1 spider-man games looked

New Vegas was on the gamebryo engine. It wasn't creation until Skyrim SE and Fallout 4

Brütal Legend being mentioned in anything always makes me happy. I recently just discovered the GF Easter egg.

Dust: An Elysium Tale is an absolutely underrated masterpiece!

tbh your icebergs are the only ones i watch all the way through

Haven’t watched yet but I’m hoping the “Piston Hondo from Punch-Out Wii is reading a Sailor Moon manga in his Title Defense intermission” thing will make it in here 🤞

Very good iceberg I listened to it when I was at work

For the borderlands 3 worm it's actually just a alien gun barrel

This video is almost entirely plagiarized. A compilation of two or three other people's channels all combined together with commentary on top, usually just verbatim repeating what was said in the original videos. :/

20:41 That motorized Shark Fin easter egg originated in JUST CAUSE 2 Both games have been developed by AVALANCHE STUDIOUS

definitely would like some more! What about the "You are not the true keyblade wielder" from KH3? Or... just a lot of Shibuya/Quadratum.

20:48 surprised you didnt mention that this was probably a nod to a Just Cause easter egg which is also literally a motorized sharkfin exactly like this one

Sourcebrew never lets me down with entertaining edge videos like these 😊

In tony hawks pro skater 3, you can see all those fish and sharks on the playstation 2. That is the warehouse skatepark unlocked at the end. Might even be a secret level

Idk if you mention this, but there was one oob dungeon in Wow that you needed noclip into a sealed door in order to explore it. Can't remember the name...

The Iceberg lacks the Wreckfest easter egg, where if you get out of one of the maps there is a cow with a shotgun for some reasons :D

the gmod tower thing didnt actually exist, the bullitin board was actually in that part of the map but the rest of the "secret" was a teaser for a interactive movie night they were going to host, where players would vote for what would happen in the story as it played out, it was going to be called "the streamer" and the plot was a gmod streamer would go insane and start murdering people, but it was scapped due to lack of motivation. the origional uploader was probably someone on the gmod tower team doing some guerilla marketing

my guess for the reagan gorbachev picture is that it was meant to be a poster on the wall of the ammunation and was scraped for being too gorey.

27:00 That's most likely a reference to Only Time by Enya, if you didn't pick up on that

37:37 don't remember HOW since i stopped playing after the server shutdown, but you can still kill larry and see this in one of the popit academy levels in the final game

Holy shit! I saw the code in the SpongeBob game when I was younger by messing with the camera, but I didn't manage to find anything on it for so long. A shame it doesn't really mean anything, but at least I've closure now.

you can also make more giant teddy bears, or others with the setscale command, tho dont remember if that requires fose or not 20 is the max size. and can use getscale to see what the size of an item is.

10:16 That's not Borderlands 2's default texture. It's normally a white and purple grid that you can on the game's spawn boxes. The texture on that boat in this video was made specifically as an easter egg in the DLC.

It's been a WHILE since I've heard about Dust: an Elysian Tail. I should finish it sometime.

the skywell worm made me LOL so hard

By the way, that’s my dad’s video trigger-happy 19:45

I made a fallout 4 mod for my nephew which I put a locked steamer trunk that you could only open with console commands that had a note in it that said "I hope you don't play the rest of the game like that."

Payday gameplay: complete heists Payday lore: Monoliths, mobs, and HOTLINE MIAMIIIIII!!!!! (violence)

Is that Simpsons Hit and Run music I hear in the sponsor intro? 👀 Well done!

The msg music made this iceberg video so fire

I was watching this vid on my tv and when he got to talking about ghost girl in glitch city in the pokemon game the second he mentioned missingno my tv glitched, turned black and rewinded the video to where he started talking about glitch city at first I thought hah nice lil easter egg there but I realized he didn't mention it so I reminded to see if he actually did that on purpose and sure enough it wasn't part of the video my tv just lagged at the weirdest time making it seem intentional💀💀💀 great vid btw

I mean, the entire plot of attack of the toybots is about evil toys so it makes sense that the box would say something evil on it

Drop big teddy bear, shoot a bullet in teddy bear (resets size in memory back to :10), put teddy bear back in inv (cannot be done if size is saved to default :1 after picking it up twice before atleast resetting it once) Can be done with any item that had it's size altered in f3 and fnv, also works with mods that let you alter item size Size can be stacked, goes into negative size above 500 (1000 for smaller items), negative sized items can no longer be seen but you can restore a -0.00 sized item to have a 0.10 size hitbox which will result in a phantom 1.00 size hitbox so you can make the pickup prompt appear, i guess this is a failsafe in the engine Save and reset game to restore resized hitbox after (re-)resizing an item, also works for mods You can also copy item size to another item with same ID by stacking the item in your inv on a non resized item and then dropping them 1 by 1 and performing the restore resize trick on both, then picking them up again and dropping them 1 by 1 I believe you also need atleast 6 of the same item for it to work so you can drop them seperately Don't thank me yet, i haven't performed it in over a decade so the explanation might be a bit rusty This method was discovered by me and fine tuned by others, the mission was to be able to restore resized items, so me, being an ex shitendo bugtester, best of the best, i knew it wasn't going to take that long, seeing as how many lines of unchecked/untested code shithesda games have... Anyway i think it took me 3 minutes XD Surprised these tricks are still not well known... Also surprised there's no oob vids on metro2033...

I'm surprised Saints Row 2 The Freezer ain't included. That's one of the most fascinating Out of Bounds phenomenon in my opinion

l break a lot out of bounds of Dark Souls 3.. l even left some messages for players if they ever got there,, but none of them was ever rated. All the places are legitimately accessible, with parkour.

u forgot saints row 2, the out of bounds figure named "the freezer", one of my favorites personally
