I can confirm this, every time I used an iron sword to kill the largest size of slime and I kept getting hit and no damage was done to the slime. I had to resort to a bow.

Same problem, I need a bow to kill the big slimes (the third size), trying to hit it with the sword will get you killed.

I just noticed you found the problem in 1.4.2 and thanks

They appear out of the blue once daylight happens. I happened to type /time set day to cause it to happen.

It ONLY EfFECTS LARGE SLIMECUBES!

BTW, I am in Fayetteville NC and it is 11:36 PM IN THE states when I read your response.

Well They appear as HUGE Slime Cubes in water in the Swamp Biome and you go to kill them and you are not able too. I posted this video on youtube as it happened.

When I recorded the video on youtube so you can watch the video I Closed the game and turned on my Windows Live Movie Maker to record. The Slime Guy could not be seen and he was still there. I have encountered this three time already and I will try and capture this tomorrow morning before you put out the release of 1.4.3. Is there away of attaching a video to you without uploading it on youtube just so you can see the replication yourself as I try to replicate the issue in video to help you resolve the problem?

That way you can see the issue to get a patch.

We need a way to replicate this problem else it will go on the 'heap' of a render glitch (and seeing that you are not having transparency in your trees, possibly just a 'slow system'/'driver issue').

Comment by Kenneth Dennis [ 24/Oct/12 ]

Yes, I posted in my video on youtube because I could not find this ticket.

You can see the problem and they appear as ghosts after i exit and come back.

Are you talking about not being able to hit the large slimes with a sword? Then the real issue is that the slimes sometimes have the wrong size hitboxes. (tiny slimes have the hitbox from large slimes, large slimes have the hitbox from medium or tiny slimes etc.) I was just about to post a bug about that, but I guess I won't do it as long as this stays open.
