| I'm wondering how you can make a hoverboard...I have two ideas that I'm going to use this for. Anyone know how? | 2009-10-05 23:43:00 Author: Sunrise_Moon  Posts: 469 |
| ive never made one but maybe this video tut will help you YouTube - How to make a hover board in little big planet | 2009-10-06 02:37:00 Author: siccology  Posts: 279 |
| Stable/working hoverboards are impossible to make for the same reason's they don't exist in real life. I have yet to see one that is flawless and won't tople over part-way through your flight... like the one in the video above did. In my opinion, the hoverboard concept is over rated in the LBP world. I have a working flyable UFO that is pretty stable, but it only works due to some "cheating" by use of a jet pack (like many working flying machines these days in LBP). I just finished a hovercar a week or so ago, but again this was only accomplished with a "cheat" by using pistons to give the illusion of it actually hovering. Let me know if you actually get your hoverboard working as a stable platform... your level will get ton's of plays.  | 2009-10-07 04:49:00 Author: Rustbukkit  Posts: 1737 |
| Well I am working on mine a lot. My main problem is that the hoverboard goes up after you get onto it. Like I want it to only really hover off the ground, not allow the player to go as high as they like. | 2009-10-07 05:42:00 Author: Sunrise_Moon Posts: 469 |
| My small hover craft is used by grabbing pink floaty, which starts very weak rockets, which only propel the player up a certain amount so they can grab repeatedly to stay at a certain height. If you go to fast, weaken the rockets a bit. I also made one with a jetpack, which really allows you to hover. Like rustbukkit said, the reason nobody has made one in LBP is because nobody can make one in real life. The game uses real physics, so there is really nothing you can do to make something hover perfectly...Besides precise building, of course, but i mean PRECISE. | 2009-10-07 05:50:00 Author: goldenclaw13  Posts: 224 |
| The only solution I can offer to your inquiry is TWEAK. As in, keep tweaking the rockets until they are just strong enough to lift you off the ground slightly. I'd add rockets on the other side of the board to balance out the upward force exerted from the bottom rockets. Actually... if you take some small bits of glass emitting at a high velocity and place them under the board, THUS acting as some sort of catapult to launch the board off the ground, then maybe the only problem you'll face is just balancing out the rockets so that it "floats" in mid air. I feel like such a genius right now. | 2009-10-07 06:04:00 Author: Outlaw-Jack  Posts: 5757 |
| I'm interested Goldenclaw- how did you make it float? I think what I may end up doing is attach the board to some pistons that are weak. | 2009-10-07 06:07:00 Author: Sunrise_Moon Posts: 469 |
| Wait which one? I talked about two, the one where you use a jetpack, and the one where you grab to make it launch up slightly. I'm guessing the grabbing one. But neither of them float, mind you. But if you continue to grab it, it will set off the rockets only for a short period of time. For the jetpack one, you basically just have a jetpack inside the ship, and can move it and such. The only way it floats is that it is light enough so when you stop it won't drag you back down. | 2009-10-09 01:43:00 Author: goldenclaw13 Posts: 224 |

Like I want it to only really hover off the ground, not allow the player to go as high as they like. i was going to make a how-to forum on hoverboards but...just play my the "hover"board concept...it was rated "it really works!!!" by the_lone_wolf_42...but seriously he tried and liked it!(added me too!) edit-i also am working on...though you already commented on the forum about it,a trick hoverboard!!!(its almost done...but it looks like a ufo...) | 2009-10-10 21:14:00 Author: theswweet  Posts: 2468 |
| Ironic! I was going to make a hover board skatepark where you get points for doing tricks! | 2009-10-10 21:34:00 Author: Sunrise_Moon Posts: 469 |
