I'd look at johnee's Running Mech for inspiration, it's a great example. Making walking creatures isn't easy by any means though, it takes a perfect blend of balance, timing, engineering, and luck. 2009-08-28 16:13:00

and luck.


You said it. I don't even want to try these things. I was trying to make something like the dragon in Oil_'s Ancient Castle. Needless so say, it was a mighty failure.

In that case I would suggest you play a level called: 'How to make Monsters Tutorial !!' by dog-egg.

If that doesn't help I'm afraid I don't know any better.

Let us know how you get on.

You're not dumb, making bipedal creatures in LittleBigPlanet is one of the most ambitious and challenging things to do. Honestly, I think you just need more experience with less complicated mechanics. That's not me being harsh either, because I know my limits and there is no way I'd be able to make walking creatures. If you insist on doing this though, I really do suggest you look at the level I mentioned above, all of the mechanics, connectors, and bolts are visible, observe carefully how it works and moves.

How to you want to make the doors open? It can be as simple as a piston attached to a directional permanent switch.
