    Attention PAX attendees! Tom and I (Spaff) are going to be at the show and we’d love to see you.

    We’ll be spending most of our time over the three days at The LittleBigPlanet area of the Sony booth, where you’ll be able to get your hands on LittleBigPlanet 2, and maybe browse the Sackboy related goods in the merchandise stall.

    We’ll also have some of our community all-stars (Jaeyden, Morgana25, Comphermc, and ConfusedCartman) at the event who will be jamming and creating things live,  so you can see what kind of things can be made with the new tools, and get some handy hints and tips from them on building your own levels.

    Additionally we’ll be presenting various aspects of the game at the LittleBigPlanet ‘Genius Bar’, and we should have some special play challenges and other crazy things going on, so pop on by and say hey!

    See you at PAX!

    P.S If you come and high five me or tom, we’ll give you a badge to celebrate how awesome you are, until we run out of them of course.

      Ah well.

      There's always the hope that you guys will be able to tell us a few tidbits.

      Right, here is the latest batch of b-coli's videos.

      There is a video of animated materials.










      There are more here

      Wow those animated textures in that last video look so amazing! I especially like the one on the right.

      EDIT: What the heck is going on to the left of the last video?!?

      Thanks for those videos b-coli.

      The last 2 are my favourites. I'm loving the animated materials anyway. The zombie sackbot one is really cool. It looks like that's on one layer and yet the player can run 'through' the sackbots. I didn't know that was possible. That's very interesting.

      It's wonderful to see how happy CC is every time he's seen. Must be a great experience for everyone.

      I thought it was cool how you could select all the sackbots and change them all at once.

      Thanks so much for the videos! Cool to have a sneak peek of the Pax stuff.

      Most things can be tweaked in this way, if you didn't already know. So you can happily select 5 pistons and modify the lengths on all of them together.

      Awesome! I was hoping that was the case!

      The animated materials are really cool. There's a water one and one with bubbles. One with a sort is star/snow effect, slime, chocolate, and dark matter has a subtle movement too. Dmm is darker than it used to be to.

      The coolest thing is you can tweak the animation! Make it change directions or the speed it moves. A lot of materials can be tweaked. There's even a sensor you can use to change the physical properties of materials. Like make them grabable or bouncy.

      I'll post more when I get home tonight.

      Great batch of vids! Isn't Tom a cutie patutie?

      Jaeyden, holy crap dude!!! The caterpillar! The creatures! Unbelievable! The animation, the way they're moving, freaking stellar.

      Did you use bolts for much of that? Spill your secrets!

      Also, looks like you guys have mastered getting your top-down creations up and down layers using the forward/back mover. how did you work that?

      b-coli, thanks for posting your experience on your blog there, very cool to read and follow.

      he's very proud of his tire squeal.

      but you have to admit, it's little things like that tire squeal, it's incredible, it's like... not even possible.

      you couldn't hear it, but he also had a squealing tire sound and when you hit the turbo, the tail lights had tracers

      and to everyone that has thanks me, you are welcome, i do this each year at PAX.. last year was my first time and was fortunate enough to meet Mark who linked everything on to the official PS sight. this year , they were covering it themselves so expect more videos to come out soon from other places

      LOL exactly what I was thinking

      It looks like some kind of arm that has bolts at it's joints. I'm guessing that the end of it is somehow set to follow the different squares in a sequence (or using a randomizer??) and the rest just follows like a rag doll type effect

      If you were referring to what I wrote then it's on the left in this vid:




      If you mean PAX...then that's Seattle

      that arm thing was an experiment as far as i could tell, i think it was on a randomizer for 3 positions of each joint... looked freaky... hahaha
