tapedeck Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Put my new level up. (After two days! of graft). It's called "Eldorado" and it's easily the best level I've made. I planned it meticulously and tried to make it like Uncharted or sommat! Kinda tells a nice story too I guess. Anyhoo, give it a whirl and lemme know what you think in-game or on here - cheers Miyamoto will retire if he sees Eldorado! :p EDIT: Hardest thing: Judging the difficulty level when you've made the level yourself.
Shotgun2k Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Just today I've been having problems with online multiplayer..basically the game gets stuck on a level when you try and change it, and then everyone has to pretty much reconnect to get back in a game. Anyone else had any issues with LBP online?
MATtheHAT Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Which level? I like to know what worked and what didn't. It was the one that plays the Daft Punk tune. It was not so much the level design, it was the mood and the way you use the lighting that I liked.

Its a superb level but i keep getting stuck at the bit where you pull the whte cylinder to proceed. Miyamoto wouldnt make that mistake.

Make sure you back it up in case the nazi moderators remove it because there was a film called Eldorado
ReZourceman Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Lol Serebii. I attempted to make a rocket ship last night, but something fucked up with the spongue/button, (you couldn't grab it for some reason) and it was too late (time wise) to fix it. Boooo. Ah well. I'm gonna make a fuck off rocket tonight.
flameboy Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Will try out your level tapedeck when I get home from work. My first level is very nearly done...it has taken me ages to get it going and its not even that great, it is very workman like and there are some very crude methods used to achieve the results I wanted. But bar from a few switches that need adding and some enemies its pretty much done. My next level will be a very different beast all together. On problem I have is how do you curve off material blocks, to give it a more organic look, alot of the shapes I have edited are very angular and ugly looking. I want majestic slopes not janky jagged edges.

I want majestic slopes not janky jagged edges. The only thing I could suggest is by adding material over in a smooth shape, like a circle, then cutting out bits with indented...etc...etc. But yeah I know what you mean. Its quite difficult. I love this game now I've got into it though. So awesome. Tapedecks level I played yesterday was wicked, but I couldn't find the key. Such a n00b.
flameboy Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 cheers rez that kinda makes sense thats how I may some clouds now I come to think of it... anyone up for some 4 player headset LBP shenigans tonight?
ReZourceman Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 I may well be up for that...gotta remember to charge my damned headset though!
Daft Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 Can't wait to try everyone's new stages. I was thinking of doing a Daft Punk 'Around The World' stage which is just on a giant wheel. But I'm not sure if I can be bothered with getting the music right. Takes so much effort and there is no guarantee it sounds any good...like my other Daft Punk level. I also have one other idea which I'll probably do first because it's a bit easier to do. It was the one that plays the Daft Punk tune. It was not so much the level design, it was the mood and the way you use the lighting that I liked. Yeah, I like messing with the lighting. I might put poisonous fumes on the floor so it looks all misty. cheers rez that kinda makes sense thats how I may some clouds now I come to think of it... anyone up for some 4 player headset LBP shenigans tonight? Yes yes yes!! Roughly what time?
ReZourceman Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 I'm gonna attempt to do a proper roller coaster tonight, using all three plains, and proper roller coaster wheels (at least top and bottom). Potentially should work...have a feeling it might not. I still havn't played Chozes yet though! Booo. It came up last night "someone just got x score on Roller Coaster mayhem blah" but there was no option for me to actually play it.
tapedeck Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Ppl keep asking me where the key is. What's that all about?! Are you meant to put the key in your level or sommat? Serebii...Hope my level stays up. It's teh roxxors! I've decided my next level will be a musical one like Dafts. May do "clocks" by Coldplay. Talk about making it easy!
flameboy Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Yeah, I like messing with the lighting. I might put poisonous fumes on the floor so it looks all misty. Yes yes yes!! Roughly what time? Er...sometime soon I will be on, need to balance out my time between creating and playing though as my level is hanging from neck like a boulder! Ppl keep asking me where the key is. What's that all about?! Are you meant to put the key in your level or sommat?Serebii...Hope my level stays up. It's teh roxxors! I've decided my next level will be a musical one like Dafts. May do "clocks" by Coldplay. Talk about making it easy! Will have to try out this level you speak of...as for the key perhaps you need a magnetic key? I'm not sure as have not played it yet?
ReZourceman Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 A little animal says "You can't get past without a key."
ReZourceman Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Think so. They are down for me. Seriously.....Im doing my coaster design now. If this works....this car design will be amazing.
tapedeck Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Yeah, it's been on and off all night. Went back to my second level and added a little bit more. It's more rewarding when the level is finally done and you can put the details in!
Sheikah Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 They're sort of semi-down atm. I just joined Tapedeck's game and he was pointing at a 2X sign, then vanished and I was party leader. Also, we could get hearting each other. :p
flameboy Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Are the servers down? yeah I have tried to do the business and get the first version of my level up published! Annoying! Please everyone play it...its not that great, and there are a lot of crude ways I have done things but it has 2 endings a good one and a bad one...so please try them out, tag it and heart it and me (I want the trophies! )
Choze Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 hear me too! Plus i need the 4 friends complete level trophy. Will try out your level tapedeck when I get home from work.

On problem I have is how do you curve off material blocks, to give it a more organic look, alot of the shapes I have edited are very angular and ugly looking. I want majestic slopes not janky jagged edges. Everyone's first sucks. By my 5th i was good. Think so. They are down for me. Seriously.....Im doing my coaster design now. If this works....this car design will be amazing. Yes, yes do it. I am working on an improved concept so the rollercoaster dont mess up. Plus i forgot how do you ake it so you use a button to spawn items? My internet connections ucks at the mo. Something wrong at Sky's end.
Daft Posted November 11, 2008 Author Posted November 11, 2008 Sorry Flameboy for not joining you. I was in a Battlestar Galactica veg session. Everyone's first sucks. By my 5th i was good. Tbh I think my first was the best then it kind of went down hill from there.
Choze Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Make sure you test and retest levels. I frequently get stuck in levels because of broken switches or something. I am making an extended Mirror's Edge. But my main a dream is not ready quite frankly so i need to spend time making huge changes. Some of you got a sneak peak. Its the one with crazy lighting and sci fiish look. Check out http://www.littlebigworkshop.com great website by Media Molecule to share and get new deas. I am going to put afew things up. Just look me up (Tegg).
flameboy Posted November 12, 2008 Posted November 12, 2008 well my level is up please everyone try it. couldn't manage to get online with people last night I kept getting disconnected from the servers all the time!
tapedeck Posted November 12, 2008 Posted November 12, 2008 well my level is up please everyone try it. couldn't manage to get online with people last night I kept getting disconnected from the servers all the time! Cheers or playing my Eldorado level matey : peace: Good, bad, fugly? I'll try yours later on. It's great fun seeing what you guys have all created. Best aspect of the game!
