LittleBigPlanet™ News Site - Sack it to Me: The "CORNISH YARG" Edition
By SackBoy103 Posted on : 3/26/2009 11:00 AM

 

Today's post is going to get chessy....or Cornish Yarg-y, the code name for the 1.12 LBP game update.  Check out some of the new things to expect with the update plus some other bits and pieces!

CORNISH YARG (aka 1.12 game update)
We don't yet have a fixed release date for this update, but it has now finished primary development so won't be too much longer.   Additional fixes, particularly for online connection reliability and save game/profile size problems are already well into development and we'll bring you more news on that just as soon as possible.

This update addresses several outstanding issues with the game :

  • There is a new music player which lets player’s choose their own music from the XMB to play during create mode and in their Pod
  • Improved decoration mode makes it easier to customize your Sackboy


New options to help prevent profiles becoming full of unwanted community objects:

  • Option to delete all (unhearted) community objects and photos
  • Option to select whether to automatically collect community prizes and photos
  • A number of improvements have been made to make profiles more robust and to recover from certain errors
  • We now support Japanese and Korean IME for text chat.
  • Emitter prediction has been improved (this should help fast-moving projectiles e.g. in MGS levels)
  • The player proximity switch now has a ‘require all’ option in it
  • An option has been added to cycle between various level information when viewing community levels on the earth
  • Various LittleBigStore improvements

@pheonixsage347
There's already a couple pf LittleBigPlanet PS3 themes.
One was a Best Buy pre-order bonus, so that may be hard to come by.
The other one was released with Qore Episode 4.
I've posted a message on the official forums before about how to get the Qore theme:

And the question of just how much Yarg carries continues. Sam_Protagonist released pretty much the same list that this update did, but MM's own blog says that it will also include some new create tools (globe switch, infinite checkpoint, untethered jetpack, etc).

And for those keeping score at home, we're currently on build 1.10, meaning there's a patch in between Yarg and our current build, though all indication seems to point to another patch that makes the upcoming DLC costumes visible.

Oh, and pity my Hot Topic only carries crap based off of the dreadful Twilight movie/phenomena.

i cant wait for the custom soundtrack!

but i have been wondering about those Play, Create, Share tabs myself.
i also heard two different rumors, one that there was only going to be Co-op level creator in "LBP 2" and another rumor that they were making a patch for it with a month or two. (i heard that rumor about 4 months ago)
can anyone clear this up for me?

The PCS scores were deactivated before the game's initial release due to network drag IIRC. That's been on the to-do list ever since. I imagine if network stability is ever strengthened enough to not be a constant issue on their plate, we'll see them activated. They serve no purpose in game that I can see other than bragging rights, so its a back burner issue for me, as I'd rather see a larger profile size than the ability to count how many levels I've played, created, or shared.

Online Co-Op is another one of those constantly on the horizon projects, and I imagine it is sitting in the same basket as the PCS scores, in that a stronger network stability is the key ingredient of making it work properly.

In both regards, they seem to rank pretty high on the list of stuff to fix, add, or change, so I imagine its a sooner rather than later project, but you'll never get a definite date nailed down until the work is done and the problem resolved. Sam and the gang at MM are pretty good about not promising things that they can't deliver on (not perfect, but still a pretty strong track record). The reason you aren't getting a definite release date for either is because they simply don't have that information yet.

Along with theperson that made up the "goo" idea, I think it would also be neat if they had quicksand, and mud. And if you got in mud, you could throw it at your friends and it would show mud stains on your sackperon. I also think it would be neat to add snow effects, especially for the Holiday Christmas levels. Hopefully these ideas are possible to add with patches and they won't have to make another littlebigplanet. lol

sincerely, Jermz-

P.S can't wait for new "Yarg" update!!

mm should add a very unique feature with the music where it actually shows the instrument and has all the notes which would be easier to make music in the game to your liking.

thanks for the info JRGC17.

glitchcheat, in answer to your question, i also saw pictures of the dark night and joker costumes. but unfortunately under closer observation i found out that they were photo-shopped :-/
i have never heard Mm ever mention these costumes themselves so i doubt we will be getting them anytime soon if at all. but there are levels that show you how to make a pretty sweet joker costume yourself. but im not sure about batman. just try searching for it.

Update sounds great. One step closer to the feature I REALLY want, custom music in the levels. I'm cooking up a Yellow Submarine based level and it won't be the same without the music! I know copyright blah blah blah but c'mon!!!

Hey MM why not put a video chat window in the game so we can appreciate the playstation eye camera much more. Unlike animal crossing voice chat we should have video chat with the up coming video chat message in the future update. That would be a fantastic feature for us long distance gamers, please give it a strong thought for me.

people to be crowned its not so much as being recognized by yourself as a good creator its being recognized by the community as a good contributor.

Yesterday I downloaded the Cornish Yarg (aka 1.12game update).I played and aced some story levels.When I got back on today I noticed that progress was not saved.I played again and aced even more levels.When I got done I turned my PS3 off. Then I turned it back on. When I got back on LittleBig Planet I noticed that my progress was still not saved. This is very frustrating.Is this a problem with the update or something else? Before the update I did not have any problems. What do I do to correct this problem?

Thanks BLAKEYEROB for the comment. I had to suck it up like a man and delete my harddrive to fix the problem. This almost made me want to quit playing. But, then I thought no Littlebig Planet is the best game ever. I had to play through the story mode again to get most of my stuff back. But, it's all good. Also, I really like the new creators pack; especially how you can change from night and day.The teatherless jetpack is awesome too.
