Ok I just played "Dragon Rider 3", it's on top of the cool pages right now. In that level at some point there are mask talking to you. Well, one of the mask actually ZOOM at you the more you walk toward it. I've never seen anything like this in LBP so far. I'm pretty sure it's a glitch and I would really like to know how to pull it off. Don't worry it's not emitters, there's no smoke and the zoom itself is WAYYYYY too smooth to be some kind of emitted thing. It's full 30fps zoom, same framerate as the game itself. Here's some pics: When you're far: http://i454.photobucket.com/albums/qq262/RangerX_photos/APhoto-1.jpg When you walk beside it: http://i454.photobucket.com/albums/qq262/RangerX_photos/APhoto_1-1.jpg .

Yea i noticed that too. My guess is it might actually have something to do with the fact that the mask is stickered on an eyeball. Maybe as the eye focuses more (and changes as you get near it) the pupil (and attatched decoration) get larger. At least tahts my theory, haven't really tested it.

Well, that's a good and possible guess to what really happened. its kinda cool tho, and if mastered it can be used for many other things!

That is awesome! Hasn't anyone thought to contact the creator and ask how it was done?

It is a cool effect if not startling. I was a little shocked actually!?! But. I was impressed with the masks movement to begin with. Then Burny V. said his eyeball comment and well... mystery solved gang, it was just an old eye in a mask! let's head back to the malt shop for some tabasco burgers 'n' pancake fries. RHoW-Rhey RHAGGY!

Just tried my idea in a level, it worked the same as in her level. You have to be rather careful about where you put the decoration though, and mine was a little distorted BC i made the size ridiculous lol. I imagine it eitehr took A) a LOT of tweaking or B) some good luck to get this to work right.

I never even noticed that the pupils change? Wow this is .... strange.

lol, well i only knew the pupils changed BC my brother tends to build random things. Like a fish shaped rocket with a giant eyeball. The large size made it easy to see a change XD

Ok wow so this happens when you stick a deco exactly on a pupil... Wow. Investigation Central is powerful!

Yeah, I was once toying with a volcano level that was actually a cave w/fire-breathing dragon. You never saw the dragon but you did open a suspiciously big door which revealed this peering eye... That eye is cool!

I noticed this as well. My guess was when I was playing it was that it had something to do with a piston, but I think it being stuck onto a magic eye is much more likely.

its stuck on the pupil of the majic eye, i noticed this when i played it too, the mask is a decoration so you can remove it to see the eye looking around

Any decoration changes size? That is COOL! Seriously! If only it could be applied to objects to have perspective changes!

Good Catch you guys! I noticed that it changed sizes when I played it and I also knew she had them on eyeballs but could't figure out how it was happening.

This glitch could actually make for some very interesting decorations Thanks for working out how this was done, good work everyone!

theres probably an eyeball on the wall, and he zoomed in to try to get the decor EXACTLY on the pupil, it has to be an eyeball because when your far, it moves around like an eyeball, and when you get closer, it follows you like the eyeball... therefor, BURNVICTIM IS RIGHT

Confirmed it, attaching a decoration to a pupil does make it grow. I pulled this off perfectly with a circle of jewel earrings.

I've had this effect in Abyss! for ever now....I don't want to claim that I discovered it...but, It's been on my boss for a very long time.

Man, it just goes to show what you can do when you experiment! A lot of cool stuff like this sometimes is figured out by accident. I saw it too and thought "wow! THAT's pretty cool!". I was going to ask her how she did it..

When I played the level, I thought I was missing somthing that everybody knew. My first thoughts where pistons too. Then I thought, maybe somthing in the MGS pack (since I havn't purchased it yet.) But to come and realize it was just an eyeball....I feel like an idiot lol. That is really cool though. The whole level was amazing.

You serious!? Wow I didn't remember that. I should have noticed that... . Well, let's face it - there was a LOT of stuff going on during the boss battle in Abyss! I've played it probably 10 times and never really noticed. Probably because I was too busy trying to not get hit by tentacles. In the Dragon Rider level I noticed it because there was nothing else moving in the room.

I noticed this on a starfish. It freaked me out it was just staring at me and growing. o_O

Why didn't you just take the decoration off? Anyway, yesh, it's cool.
