Anyone help?
I've just installed the LBP2 and the game gets to it's first loading screen, the game then crashes, the loading screen doesn't go away and I can't even access home menu... I've got a 320GB PS3. Tried the game on my 160GB PS3, it installed, then loaded, so it appears my 320GB PS3 is causing a problem
Any ideas?
I've tried re-installing it 3 times and even removing DLC to see if that makes a difference.

Considering we covered 38 genres within LBP2 in our Guinness World Record run in 24 hours that were multiplayer friendly, that vid is a nice testament to how flexible the game can be. Good stuff. =)OgTheClever said:

My fav level so far. Is some going to do the weekly/monthly levels to play like they did for lbp1?

Checking my e-mail... these are the ones Guinness accepted. I don't remember which ones we missed, but some are pretty obvious they can't be done.DMPrince said:

In order to qualify, we had to play a genre for at least 5 minutes. Replays could not be done. Playing multiple levels within a genre in order to reach that goal was acceptable. Stuff like MMORPGs and whatnot were a little out of reach and we could not go into create mode and build a stage to fulfill a genre. There were some other stipulations that limited our ability, but if we could've done that, we'd have covered way more ground. We did try to get the community who already had the game to build levels that had the genre we needed and was also multiplayer accessible, but they failed us, lol.

No, I mean using the filter to remove the LBP1 levels from the search. Some are resubmitting their LBP1 levels in LBP2 causing it to register as a LBP2 level, I guess they want trophies for those levels or something. Its no big deal but I would like to play levels utilizing the new tools.

Since this can be misleading, it also has to be strongly pointed out that both of those levels are from MM staff, published under private PSNs. So basically they cannot be viewed as community levels, at least in regards to showing how proficient the community has become.
Love this game. It's crazy how much time I can spend on the little things. I spent like half an hour last night just making a couple trees. I made a level with a giant chrome building called 'The Lab' where I can go and make crazy contraptions and test them out. Right now it's full of levitating gophers, sackboy-launching cannons and lots of explosives. Create is the bestest thing about the game even if you're not trying to make a real level.
Anyways, my first level idea didn't pan out but now I'm working on one called SACKBOY'S NIGHTMARE. I'm trying to make the darkest and most morbid LBP level ever, and it's pretty creepy so far. It's about Sackboy having a bad spicy dinner then going to sleep and entering into a terrifying nightmare world. The slo-mo baby cry sound effects I added were really freaking me out. As long as I can see it through till the end, it should be pretty cool. I just have to curb the violence so it doesn't get taken down right away.

Sup. Well...maybe everything but the music...then again I dont want to give up so easy lol. Do we have anyone beside Ranger X thats pretty good with making music? Dont want to keep bugging him about stuff
Snuggler said:
Thats one thing im worried about for survival horror stages.
Teknoman said:
Yeah, for sure.
I'm not adding blood or anything extreme, but there are silhouettes of sackboys hanging from nooses and a few burning crosses as well. I think I have a sick mind if this is the kinda stuff I come up with, but it's fun to create a scary atmosphere and I can't help but laugh at something dark and morbid juxtaposed against the whimsical cutesyness of LBP.
There should be an 'adults-only' filter so we have free reign to make crass, violent and inappropriate levels.

I've seen worse in LBP. Just don't go God of War brutal and you'll be okay.Teknoman said:
Ranger X said:
To be honest, if they created these levels in their free time, and since those levels are of great quality, I dont see why they would not be MM picked (but in that case, a recognizable MM staff label should have been highlighted in the logo of those levels or creators just so people are aware that those levels were not created by the community.
I guess the primary reason why MM did this was to have a number of great LBP2 levels available to the community at the time of the games release. The idea was probably to demonstrate what they can expect from the community and to avoid constant nagging that after playing through the story mode there is nothing else to do since community levels are a major suckaton, but then again since in this case the community is in fact MM staff we come back to the problem of the real community being somewhat deceived. I said somewhat because MM is not really trying to hide this fact, but on the other hand this information will probably not be available to 95% of the community, and can be still viewed as intentional manipulation.
Although I have to admit that I dont have a too great issue with this, but it is certainly a debatable thing they did.
donkey show said:
I believe this was a mistake on the MM's part. They probably were aware of all the stipulations in advance and as such could have brought to the community's attention much earlier and with a greater emphasis the need to have certain level genres created for the Guinness world record.
GeoramA said:
I sort of wish the ending wasn't so anticlimactic. They spent the whole level building up this evil siren who shows up halfway through the level, says "Herp de derp you won't make it out alive," then disappears. The rest of the level is just platforming. Atmospheric, gorgeous, enjoyable platforming, but the whole story sort of just disappears into a series of jumps.

Not really. All of us were somewhat in the air until the Guinness guy came over and ironed out the rules. During the live stream, we even had Danny and Johnee (level designers) list what genres we knew we were going to have problems with and asked the community to see if they can do it. I mean, even on their spare time, those two built a couple of levels on another PS3 that fit the genres which were uploaded to the servers for us to play and be counted. There were just so many what ifs involved that we wouldn't have been able to figure it out until we actually started.Stampy said:

RyanardoDaVinci (who I believe is a member of gaf) is a machine, my recent activity has a ton of levels he has played. I have been using your selections a lot so thanks.
Snuggler said:
Hmm, how about creating the most gruesome level you have planned, without having any inhibitions whatsoever, and then slightly editing it into a lighter version (which you would publish and tell people in the description of your dark and secret level hidden on your moon). For this hardcore version you would invite people to play it so they could actually experience how twisted and demented person you are.
donkey show said:
Well then, this certainly is not professional from Guinness people to hold in secrecy all the rules. The point of this is probably to be as transparent as possible, and this certainly was not helpful to the cause. Oh well, record still broken.
BTW, I remember when I was watching you all play some kind of weird cardboard game, and someone was commenting how it cannot be classified into any of the genres planned. Now that was truly disappointing. Just because the genre was not prelisted does not mean it does not exist. Although I understand certain rules have to be established, I was expecting they would allow some degree of flexibility to it, even more since later on it can be examined and decided on if the acceptability of it is valid or not.

Yeah, there was definitely a bit of that going on with several levels as the list above seemed to be predetermined. On one of my levels that were played, I was hoping we could shoehorn in an educational genre as that is what is was meant to be, but I don't remember if there was any finalization on that. The only thing that probably made it hard to stamp out was due to the fact that the genre record was brand new versus pre-existing from what I understand. Second, since there were three of us, all of us had to be actively playing unless one of us went on break.Stampy said:Well then, this certainly is not professional from Guinness people to hold in secrecy all the rules.

But hey, I'm okay with being in the record books for that at the moment, lol.

Someone, please tell me how to make an object with different up/down speeds (or in this case forward/backward, since it's a car)! I've tried using two movers, but that doesn't work at all. It doesn't move an inch in any direction with more than one mover.

Just found a pretty interesting level - Sniper Mission: Old Town. It's quite mindless in that you just pick people off through a sniper scope, but it's cool how it's implemented using the new features.
I am seriously stuck for ideas. It's frustrating having all the tools and logic and not being able to do anything with them.

Edit:
Just played around with this a bit, but all I used was an advanced mover with the left / right output connected to the thumbstick left / right input. The strength and how far you push the stick determines the speed.RoadHazard said:

Mechanical Snowman said:
Just keep playing levels but don't force yourself to have an idea. The best one to work on is the one that comes unexpectedly. =)
RoadHazard said:
First, don't use multiple movers for that. Second, have you switched the mover in the options from ON to SPEED? That should get you to where you want.

I think you misunderstood me. I want the car to accelerate/reverse with X/[], and I want the reverse speed to be lower. Just can't figure this out.
donkey show said:
I may have worded my question badly. I'm not talking about being able to control the speed. Let's try again: I want one button to drive forward and one to reverse, and I want these two speeds to be different. Going in reverse should be slower. The problem is that one mover can only have one speed. I can't set the "down" speed to be lower.
I'm using X and Square for this, and I'm using timers (the ones that go up as they get input and then go back down as the input disappears) to get smooth acceleration/deceleration (yes, just using the acceleration settings for the mover could do this as well, but then you can't turn when you release the gas). If I could somehow just make the timer for reverse driving not go all the way up, but get stuck halfway, I could solve it. Not sure how to do that though.
Mechanical Snowman

Yeah, I read your post wrong.RoadHazard said:
Edit: Your initial method should have worked. I've just put two movers on a controllinator attached a block with wheels, the square making the car reverse and x making it accelerate.
To reverse, set the speed to minus instead of plus. You can edit the speed of each mover.
Edit 2: Just noticed you're using timers so your logic set up is probably different to mine.
Edit 3: If you're using the no gravity trick to make a car in the top-down view, then disregard this post :lol.

Hmm, I've not played the game yet and therefore haven't had experience with the new tools, but maybe you could attach a second (faster) timer to the original timer that only activates with reverse, therefore stopping it part way and producing a slower maximum speed (I'm presuming this is all circuit board based).RoadHazard said:

This doesn't work for me though. With two movers connected to the same controlinator none of them will do anything at all.

With LBP1 I was in the opposite spectrum. It was something like. "I am seriously stuck for technical proficiency. It's frustrating having all those ideas and not being able to do anything artistically and technically meaningful with the tools provided in the game." With LBP2 I hope my approach will be: "I don't give a damn." And that consequently my productivity rate will be much higher.

I commented on the tower defense level in this thread, might even be on this page. I linked it and reviewed it in-game. It's probably the best level I've played. I don't care who made it, it's brilliant. And I never knew any MM employees made these levels. Doesn't bother me.TTP said:
