No.. not really, it is more the graphics than anything. Think of a PC game using lower graphics settings than Ultra.Quote:

I would have thought that the extra layers would have added to the strain on the CPU.
Anyway, I have a question.
Can a sackbot be forced along a continuous path into and from the background? (A winding path...) Klonoa does this for example.
I also hope that the layer change bounce pads are not the only means to force the player (or sackbot) to another layer.
I got a question. Can you make a custom character using materials? I hope you can. Sorry for this being off-topic.
Still finding bugs:

Wish I could report them.
Sort of, but it's up to you to design every aspect of their controls. With some of the new tweaks, you've got a little more freedom than you did in LBP2, but there's not that much new stuff to facilitate material-made characters any more than before. You won't be able to make something that looks as 3D and well defined as Sackboy or any of his new friends.Quote:

There's just about zip regarding Music Sequencers in the beta. There's the sequencer itself (which looks the same upon a cursory glance), but zero instruments to use with it. We're not meant to know yet.Quote:

Can anyone in the beta test if the ramdomizer still produces the same patterns when the level is played in play mode? If so, can you place an object saver onto the same chip to overcome this?
Can PS3 players play with PS4's players? I really need to know this.
Not in the beta, maybe in full game, we don't knowQuote:

I realize that this is an LBP 3 thread, so would someone like me to some sort of tutorial (video preferably) that proves that I can turn on and off instruments in a custom track without having the entire track restart?
Thanks.

You can get instruments in LBP3 by going in your goodies bag, opening the menu on a music object, then playing the tutorial. Due to some bugs, the bubbles fly around and some stay inside the tube so you'll have to go and get those by flying around the level. Same works for sounds. There's some new sounds in the old sound objects/new old sound categories aswell, surely something to check out. There's no new instruments though.
* yes change the setting so it broadcasts to all nearby tags, then just put the same tag on a sackbots microchipQuote:

when I ported a old copy of my profile over because it seems the beta can't port profiles from the newer versions of LBP2. everything is a mess because it didn't remember any of my categories. and it made it hard to find the new content since it thinks old content is newer when looking at the newest content tab... I hope they fix that profile porting problem in the full game. I don't want to have to reorganize everything. *mew
I also wish I could at least remove DLC stickers from my popit. I'm tired of my popit being clogged up my 1000s of useless stickers. Sure I could just heart or categorized my favorite content but it's still annoying. also if they did allow you to remove them for your popit... all they would have to do in order for you to add them back is click on them in the ingame store to re-add it to ya popit. And a lot of the stickers are especially useless now since it is more easy then ever to make your own since the LBP-Paint feature is not limited to only the Move-controller anymore.
How? :confused:Quote:

Is out there someone who is playing the beta on the PS4 and doesn't own a Ps Plus subscription? If so, could they please tell us if Ps Plus is needed to publish your levels online and play the ones that have been published by other players?
The back of the PS4 LBP3 cover (which I've seen on twitter) already states that a Ps Plus subscription is required for online multiplayer, and that was expectable. But is that also needed for other network features? I know that it may be difficult to find someone who has been invited for the beta and has not joined Ps Plus, but I looked for this little piece of information everywhere, and apart from this closed topic I didn't find anything new or useful. :(
I'd really like to clear this doubt of mine before the game is released... if that is possible, of course!
I think Sony would be wise to make this FTP. I can understand why driving traffic through PS+ is good for business but I feel as if the selling power of exposure to new content is much more financially rewarding. People see new costumes, stickers, materials, decorations or hear new music and instantly start looking for the DLC pack they're from. I feel as if locking it all behind a 'pay wall' (such a negative phrase) could actually REDUCE the potential overall revenue.Quote:

On a side note, you lovely folks might want to start gravitating towards the LBP3 section of this forum. It's grown some flesh in recent days and I'm sure a pint of blood here and there would get it's heart beating.
That explains it. My LBP2 file doesn't work, but my LBP1 file works just fine.Quote:

This way we can either ADD to the built in sound effect or ADD our own sound effect. But turning music ON/OFF surely HAS to be added.Quote:

Someone earlier suggested that it IS possible to turn off instruments dynamically in LBP2 (without restarting the music track). I have found this to be untrue.
Anyway, back to LBP 3.
Would you all believe that I have had a level in construction since LBP 2 was released...and it's still a demo, probably since I am a perfectionist. Sigh. I don't see how LBP 3 would make it any easier to build except for one thing:
the transitions (?)
If I understand correctly I wouldn't have to use the emit, destroy, emit technique to build larger complex levels. I have multiple mazes that would need to be emitted then destroyed, with "hallways" and cutscenes that suggest a continuous path that isn't really a continuous path...and sackbots.
I can imagine this being easier in LBP 3 but I am not sure exactly in what way. Would anyone have a clue? (I hope that I explained everything well enough.)
It's the same thing I was thinking of. There are lots of reasons to make at least the community part of LBP3 subscription free. Oh well, I guess the fact that the "Network Features" box in the cover lacks of the "PsPlus required" sentence is enough to say that you won't need the Plus to play online levels... I hope. :cry:Quote:
