Sometimes invisible walls are necessary. For example: I am making a pyramid level. Players could climb the pyramid instead of going inside, which I don't want them to do, but putting a visible barrier would look terrible.Mik2121 said:Or you know, not making invisible walls
Go check any of the Mm levels. I don't think I can remember any that had invisible walls

Invisible walls sucks, simple make the back layers lower so the sackboys can't step into them and work in the frontmost layer
Uhm? I don't know how you're making it, but I bet there are many ways to block the Sackboy's way. For example making one of the blocks half broken so that the other half sits on top of the block below so they can't jump on it.RagnarokX said:
Dunno, there are many ways. Using invisible walls just sounds like a cheap, fast and crappy (no offense) way of doing it.
Edit - Something like this for example:
Not that kind of pyramid. It has smooth slopes like the Great Pyramid at Giza had before they eroded. I'll probably make a better entrance to solve the problem but it's still an example of why someone would use invisible walls.Mik2121 said:Uhm?

Yerp sry - ignore.
Though I find when I use light/dark matter it plays havok with my anti-grav physics. Is there anyway to use this for good? Tried playing around with making a spacewar game but light/dark matter doesn't seem to have mass to make it have it's own gravity.... a tag on the planet with a tag follower on the ship seems to be a good work around though.
Why are you using dark matter and light matter? The entire purpose of those is that they have no gravity at all. They were useful in LBP1 to keep things floating but with antigravity tweakers their usefulness is greatly diminished. So far the only way I've used them in LBP2 is to make a tent look like it is moving in the wind.ijed said:
Uhm.. even then, I bet something could be done to prevent people from entering.RagnarokX said:
Plus, if there's going to be an entrance to the pyramid, shouldn't it be something fairly big? There would be no slopes around, like this:
Also before I stop working on this...
lol
I already changed it to not need invisible walls. If you want to see what I have done so far I published a beta a few days ago.Mik2121 said:Uhm.. even then, I bet something could be done to prevent people from entering.

Is that the one where you have to shoot all those plants with the water gun? I looked like a freak doing that with 4 controllers, lol.Mik2121 said:Someone with one friend around available, please join me NOW! I'm trying to 100% the game but the stupid 3x (and maybe 4x too somewhere else) in the Eve world are preventing me from doing so since like 5 days ago

What a riot of fun am I having with this game. The online can be inconsistent sometimes, but when it works it's just epic fun. The shooter levels are the best so far on the SP and I took a peek on a level with some fireflies when I followed a player that was just hard as nails. Yikes!!!

:lol I know, right? But this kid helped me with the LBP1 prize bubbles years ago so I can't really find fault going through the levels with him (besides he's 16 now so not pedobear/shota cat now)
Anyway, since my Prius level based on some Top Gear stunts with filming can't exactly happen, I'm drawing a blank on building a level and am butthurt toward the creator. All I want is 50 plays. Is it that hard to ask for? ;__;
Wooo, I 100%'d the game thanks to RangerZero, SolidEye and Netguy.
After that we played a bit Netguy, SolidEye to get a few 3x extra and whatnot. By the end (I had to sleep.. still need to...) we were just messing around on Netguy's pod, adding a lot of weird decoration and he ended up kicking us saying 'bye ass' But it was all fun and jokes :_)
Looking forward to play again soon!. If only the game weren't so laggy when playing online..

just take it down to 0% by tweaking it, you can still see it in create mode so go into preview mode to see what will not be seen in play mode.

LOL..do you want to tell them what you were doing to my sack character or should I?
Can anyone explain to me what is the deal with movers and holographic material? I connected the on/off output to mover, and when the mover is placed on some standard material it starts and stops as the on/off input is cycled. But as soon as i place the same mover on the holographic material after turning it on the bastard just continues to glide, no matter the on/off input. :/
Yes, you are right, didn't even test it in play mode. thanks for clearing that up.

I was able to switch the prius to R2/L2 forward/backward controls by removing all the wires from their microchip and placing one of my one. (assuming this is the side view car we're talking about) You have to leave their unconnected chip on the car or else the whole car gets deleted when you remove it, but since it's invisible in play mode it doesn't really matter.
If you just want a shot of the car stopped with the sackboy in it, just set the speed of the motor bolts on the wheels to 0.

If you like the song Popcorn, I made it into a music item for you to earn when you finish the level:
http://lbp.me/v/x9xere
You can use it in your own levels.

How were you able to set the microchip to do that and remove the wires? Removing the chips on their microchip removes the car (SMH create mode), and I didn't see anything in the options on the chip to do that.
And yeah, playing around with create mode I've caused the car to go super fast (good for "POWEEEEEER" moments), or leave without Sackboy ("COME BACK PRIUS! D:"), but can't cause it to be under my controls for video recording purposes. :/
In any case, I need a good piano recreation to drop on the Prius if I could solve this problem.
Stampy said:
Ok, I got it. After turning off the mover for a certain direction another mover with 0/0 both speed needs to be activated in order to stop the holo material from drifting along its way. I must admit that I don't understand what was the purpose of this, but oh well, at least it is not moving now. -_-
But just to ask, in case I am doing something wrong here... What is the best method to create complex and predetermined cyclic movements of certain objects on screen? I will try combination of sequencer batteries and movers. But is there a better/less clunkier way to do this?
TheSeks said:
Just by either highlighting the wires when that option is available and pressing triangle, or going to the connection points, pressing square and hitting the delete option. After all the wires were removed i just shrunk down their microchip icon and moved it off to the back of the car out of my way.

After playing the camel level and getting all those prize bubbles I noticed a shit ton of awesome new materials in create that are animated.
Can people join others in story levels that they've not unlocked yet? I don't mind spoiling the story for myself and playing with other people to get the 3 / 4x player prize bubbles if it means I'll get more create stuff. PSN is GTA_Chaos for others looking for the multi player prizes.

( Im trying to ace "full metal rabbit")
just take it slow dont go jumping around and dont 4get to tap and dont jump anywhere with out checking it first
I didnt find it that hard at all maybe go with some one that do all the killing and stay back safe if still cant?
I'm just about done my 2rd LBP2 level trying to make it so 4 player can play
And who's idea is this at Media Molecule to decide that Acing levels will give important prizes like music and materials now?
This never happened in LBP1 and that was perfect like that. People more interested in Creation (like me) are already annoyed by collecting everthing manually + already having to find other people to complete those damned multiplayers bonus rooms. Don't fucking make me ace the levels on top of that. Seriously, what the hell. Leave acing for people focusing on the "play" side of the game.
So who's idea is this? I want to kick you in the nuts. Sincerely. I can take the plane anytime.

wow! I didn't know that one player could die while the other still gets an ace! I'm going to use a second controller to ace full metal rabbit now, if that really the case.
EDIT: Nevermind, I Aced it with no other help right after I posted this. lol
Full Metal Rabbit and the level right after it are definitely the hardest. Although they still don't come even remotely close to the Bunker in LBP1!
