Yep, well sorta.



Wow lol.



In the 3rd phase of final boss, he got even harder to hit, and find.



Honestly, I love glitches in Spyro games.



I love these games.

What have you done with my Purple Boi!?

A spinning glitch(lol) has put Spyro into thinking he was a hedgehog for a minute, but he'll be back to normal in no time.

I guess Moneybags dead what he threatened to do in the crystal Isles.

Best glitch in the game.

i mean if you think about it:

sonic adventure sonic and skylanders spyro both have those freaky big eyebrows...

spyro is sonic

"Spyro"

"Sponic"

Now, use the blue Spyro cheat code!

Let's keep all the glitches we find in this singular thread. @-@

Agreed.

I'm excited to see more. I used to be really into researching glitches, so I've always found them fascinating.

Good idea this thread.

Oooh this is a good thread idea. This is probably the best glitch I managed to get a pic of, the sorceress getting stuck in the final battle. Unfortunately I died like right after taking the shot so I didn't get to see if anything funny happened if you killed her like that :(

I don't have documentation of this, but a similar thing happened to me in Spyro 3. I was in Shiela's alp and one of the Rhynocs was in a T-pose instead of its normal animation. Sheesh, this game has some animation issues I guess.

Thanks, though it's not as good as the 1st video, but hey blue Spyro!

Speaking of bugs and glitches, apparently there could be evidence of a patch in the works:



I’m personally more inclined to belive the changes are actually either because the videos were taken with a previous build which allowed more details to be on-screen or because it’s our first glimpse at the capabilities of a PC version, but even in that case we do know the N. Sane Trilogy was patched when it became multiplatform.

If it truly is the result of a patch, then I’m very glad they want to improve and polish the visual part along with the gameplay problems.

Ugn. Haven't watched this video yet. ThatCanadianGuy looks a bit clickbatey to me... Does he make any good points?

You must not watch any of his videos ... He sure does.

Does make good points or does make clickbait videos?

Oh, lol. Yes he makes good points.

Oh indeed, despite his sometimes “click-baity” titles he does provide very good and interesting points for his speculations and considerations.

I try to avoid those kind of attention-catching videos like tha plague but have learned that Canadian Guy Eh is among the few youtubers whom you can trust.
He might not end up being right, but at least he stays true to facts everytime he can.

Don't have any recordings of this, but occasionally my screen will go black while I'm playing. Music will keep playing, though. It's happened once or twice. Last time was in Spyro 3 (naturally).

Also sometimes when I die on the flights the "Reigniting" animation freaks out and Spyro either doesn't fly across the screen or comes at a weird angle. One time some of the letters in "Reigniting" didn't even load.

I'm not sure this is actually a glitch, but it bugs me nonetheless -- sometimes when Spyro enters a level in the first game, he shoots so far up into the sky that he disappears for a second. Doesn't seem like a smooth transition into the level and just feels a bit overkill-ish to me if it's actually intended to look that way.

I get this sometimes too. He starts out coming in at a weird angle and then respawns flying correctly.

^ It's intended. I personally like it. *shrug*

I mean, maybe if it were more consistent it wouldn't bug me maybe? I'm sure the way he enters the level depends on that level, but still.

It's a loading screen, the remaining parts of the level pop in during that transition.

I noticed a glitch in YotD where when you return to a previous homeworld, you can see the NPCs that built the balloon/whirlygig/rocket stand there for a second and then disappear.

I occasionally had times when the music wouldn’t change when I enter challenge portals even though it’s supposed to. For example, I still heard the Haunted Tomb theme while I was doing the Agent 9 challenge in that level.

I also once had a soft lock when I flew up to the ceiling in the first room of Sgt. Byrd’s Base. Fortunately, I was able to pause and exit the level.

I've seen that, it's pretty weird lol.

Was playing the tank minigame in Haunted Tomb. For part 2, Spyro was stuck in his jump animation while I talked to the NPC.

Later, in Desert Ruins, I was at the part where you climb up the latter, and there's an enemy that makes it hot. The enemy froze, and part of the latter got stuck in it's hot animation. Climbed onto it and it didn't hurt Spyro.

YOTD in RT seems to have mostly just animation bugs for me. :/


EDIT: Feb 3, 2019
The Super Bonus Round apparently still has triggers for places that Sparx can point to gems to, even if you've collected everything. Finally have some video evidence this time!

Once I got stuck in a whirlwind in charmed ridge. The whirlwind would elevate me like usual, but I would fall, then it would elevate me again, then I would fall, and so on, without being able to move from there or even pause the game. I think it happened because I got hit by a rhynoc at the same moment that I got in the whirlwind, but I could be wrong.

Had the extra gem thing happen to me this morning in Fireworks Factory. I was playing around with the motion-blur off.

Also, not sure if this has been posted, but there's a boundary break glitch in Artisans. I tried it out in order to see if there's anything behind the door, and it looks like there's a small room rendered there. Can't wait to find out what's behind it!

Me performing the boundary break:
Skip to around 35 seconds and look underneath the castle (top left of screen)


Video I used to learn how to do the glitch:

k so i'm trying to platinum the game. the one thing between me and plantinum-ing spyro 2 is this weird glitch in crystal glacier.

the minigame with the green bug guys. draclets. some of them don't spawn correctly. so i can't beat the minigame again because not all of them are showing up. sometimes they spawn and shoot right up in the air way out of reach.

i don't remember if this ever happened to me when i was playing through the game this first time. it's unlikely that it did because i was able to get the orb the first time around.

yup! that's what i did and it worked like a charm.

dying and then re-spawning seemed to work for me, but i didn't want to waste a bunch of lives

I am known as the glitch master in my household because I have the habit of glitching any and every game I play, accidentally and mostly intentionally. Unfortunately I never got to play the Reignited Trilogy so I didn't have the chance to glitch it. I was especially good at glitching Spyro games.

My favorite one here is the Homing Attack, however, that is pure gold.

I might be experiencing a bug in Fracture Hills.
I am at the end of the level with all enemies defeated with the exception of the Earthshakers because I don't have headbash but my enemy count is still 2 short of unlocking the Super Charge power up.

Granted I used to use a cheat to unlock all of the abilities that have to be bought from Moneybags at the beginning of the game, I don't recall the Earthshakers ever counting towards unlocking the Super Charge powerup in the original game.

Is this a bug or something new?

not sure if i'll get a chance to do any documentation or if this is even a new discovery

last night i was messing around in midnight mountain and used the whirlwind. i flew over to the tower where you load in at the top of the level. i was trying to see if the game would let me walk on top or if it would push me off since the top of the tower is a dome. to my suprise, spyro clipped through! i was able to do this a couple of times. funky missing collision

edit: here it is! it's pretty easy to replicate. i also tried briefly poking around other areas but didnt find any other interesting collision stuff

what did you do? lol

jumped lol

The earthshakers? It has been a while. What do you mean?

Thanx. I know I still can't complete the world in one go because there is no cheat to unlock all the Moneybags abilities anymore and I forgot until someone mentioned it here that you have to redo the alchemist mission when you return to do the Hunter part (bleh) but at least I can get this super charge mission out of the way.
