Downloadable Animation Packages

Archive: 6 posts


LittleBigPlanet is great. But when making videos, hanging out with your friends or want to take a really awesome photo to sticker on your ho-..
That last part is not needed, you get the point.

To continue from where i started: It would be really awesome to have some more animations for sackboy! Like seriously, who wants to stick his finger up through his throat, trying to wave to someone?
I've thought of a few possible animations, and actually Media Molecule already made a few of them already! They just needs to be activated by the player, instead of having to wait for'em..

That's right! I want to be able to Sit, Lie Down, Tilt my Head, Wave, Do a Sommersault, you name it!

Now, if LittleBigPlanet created some DAPs (Downloade Animation Packages) I would buy them instantly. A price of 1.5 USD* would seem pretty fair for a pack containing 4-6 different animations. Here's some ideas of what packs should be downloadable, and what the animations in the pack should be.

Basic Pack: Sit, Lie Down, Wave and Thinking.

Happy Pack: Joy Jump, The Robot, Caramell Dansen and a Cheer Roll.

Angry Pack: Show Behind, Lots o' small jumps, Roar to the Sky and Bended Arm.

Sad Pack: Standing - Head in Hands, Sitting - Head in Hands, Head in one hand and Standing in a pool of water (tears).

Fighting Pack: Roundhouse Kick, Fighting Stance, 6 Finger Jabs, Hand-Stand Kicking.

+ Items Pack:** Pull up a blog and begin to write, Big ? appearing above sackboys head, Big ! appearing above sackboys head, Talk into phone, Sms on phone.


Now, of course these animations should be customiseable. I thought of a way to control these animations.

Pushing in both L2 and R2, while pressing a directional button (as when choosing a mood), would cause an animation to play.

But how do I know what animation plays, oh-so-brilliant Risumm?

Through a new icon in the Pop-It of course.. Duh!
In this menu, there should be 4 illustrations. One for each Directional Arrow (The arrow to the right would glow red, if this is the direction that should be changed).
Below each illustration, should be some text, telling you what animation is currently set. This could be Sit, Roar to the Sky, Joy Jump and Roundhouse Kick.
When clicking on the text, a menu similiar to the menu popping up when changing sounds with the sound.. tools.. would then appear, where you would choose the animation. When hovering over an animation, your sackboy would do that operation, so you could preview it, making sure that this is the animation that you want.


Please share your opinions of this idea! If a similiar topic has been made before, I apologize for making a duplicate thread. I have looked at the 'similar threads' though.
When my scanner begins to work, and when I've drawn some pictures, I'll show you some examples of how the animations could look like.


* My currency is not USD, so I don't know what the precise value is, but it should be the same price as a costume included in a costume pack.

** With this 'Items Pack +' I mean that Sackboy/Sackgirl pulls in his zipper, and takes the needed item out. A laptop for example!... It coulds also be an invisible pocket behind him, so it wouldn't scare small kiddies when making one of these animations......

I've had this idea before, but I never posted it.

I like this idea, the ability to switch out current animations for new ones would be great.

The Basic Pack could be free, but having everything free, MM wouldn't earn anything on it, even though they most likely put a lot of work into it. Therefor, I think that such a small fee would be fair.
Of course, they could make giant bundles, where you would get 5 AP's, costing 6$ or so.
That way, people would more likely buy the 'mega' bundle, and save some money, even though they wasn't really going to buy the.. Let's say Sad Pack.
