Help needed urgently!

Archive: 9 posts


I just tried to get on LBP and it said my save data was corrupt. It worked fine earlier, I don't know what happened. I have levels with months and months of work into them. I don't have any online backups, just on my moon. The game and save data are fine on the XMB menu, but when I try to start up I get the message, then it asks me if I want to delete the data, which I haven't done yet.

I tried copying the save data to a new profile and the same thing happened. Are your levels stored on the game or save data?

Please if someone can help me, I am in agony. I don't think I'll be making any more levels if I can't remedy this.

The memory can be to the max if you have too many levels made with a high capacity of space so what you can do is publish some of the levels locked and then delete them on your moon and finish the other levels and publish those and when you have published those, copy you level that you deleted onto your moon then finish that and the publish that and before you copy the level that you deleted, delete the published levels that you published off you moon.


Make Sense? It may be a little confusing...

Kinda made sense, but I don't think that it's gonna help me.

I can't even get to my pod, as soon as I start the game up, it loads for a couple seconds then gives me a message saying 'Save Data Is Corrupt'

I then have an option to either Retry or to Delete Data. I haven't deleted it yet, if I do I don't know if it will delete the levels on my moon with it.

You can send the save data to MM and they will try to fix it for you.2009-04-12 10:34:00

The same thing happened to me. I did have a backup (previously confirmed to work) but the game claimed that to be corrupt as well. I sent that in weeks ago with a detailed bug report but never got a reply.

In your place I'd copy the existing ("corrupt") game save to USB memory and start over if you want to play in the next days. There's a very, very small chance that the 1.12 patch might fix the game and make it load your old save.

Wait for the cornish yarg release this week and see if it helps. I believe they added some auto recovery to it.

But regardless, when you're working on a level always publish it locked until you are finished with it. And periodically back up your profile onto a memory stick.

When you guys say 'send it to MM' what exactly do you mean by that? I e-mailed them, but is there a way to actually give them your data?

Also I don't have a USB Memory Stick so I copied the data onto a second user, new profile. That's pretty much the same right?

MM have - on this site and over at lbpworkshop - published an e-mail address at which they are supposed to receive broken gamesaves; a quick search should find the respective threads without much trouble. However, as far as I know, they've been primarily concerned with "Failed to load" levels, not with gamesave corruption.

I think that copying the data to another user should be the same as copying onto a memory stick but cannot tell for sure, obviously. Good luck!

The copy I made of the save just kind of disappeared. I tried loading it today and it worked fine, but none of my levels or anything were there. So however little chance of recovery I had before is gone now.

To be frank, if MM can't prevent these random corruptions from happening, I doubt that they're too concerned with fixing them on a one by one basis.

Thanks anyway.
