The Search for the Glass Orb
Archive: 71 posts
| This thread is for planning and such for the Glass Orb project. If you need to ask what it is, you probably shouldn't be here.

| http://media.urbandictionary.com/image/large/srsly-47667.jpg Yes, srsly. It's gonna be epic, man. EPIC! | 2010-01-12 21:32:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Ok as for who's publishing it we could make a new account to publish the level/series and at the end we could have a list of all the people who helped (or even credits) EDIT: Oh and if you need to ask what it is come here (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=21058). This is just a level/series based on this true event in the link i just gave ya.  | 2010-01-12 22:30:00 Author: Doopz  Posts: 5592 |
| LBD and I made a hallway from the Schwartzheimer hotel. Published as "Room 63B" @IStwisted, Laughing MFAO the whole time. | 2010-01-13 05:46:00 Author: IStwisted  Posts: 428 |
| Alright if we are gonna get this done we need to start planning out how many levels there will be and what will be in each one. | 2010-01-13 17:25:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Well, it's kinda hard to plan when I don't really know who is good at doing what, or even who everyone is in this project. We may have too many members... | 2010-01-13 17:29:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Well by the looks of it even though loads of people said they wanted to help not much are actually here... | 2010-01-13 17:32:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| True, true. Maybe they just forgot. | 2010-01-13 17:38:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Well we need to find out who's up for it anyway... at the momment it doesen't seem like this is gonna happen D: | 2010-01-13 18:31:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| First order of business: Pick a team captain. Team captain duties to include: - creating a PSN to publish under - send friend requests from the PSN to team members - host online create where we can bring objects/areas we've created I nominate Dandy since he took the initiative of starting this thread. Need to agree on basic outline of level, determine objects and areas to be included, and assign to willing creators. I plan on building more Hotel interior and Dusseldorf backgrounds. http://www.halfen.de/icms/mod_img/d/a/da56efc429558753b5d7908a759c766f.jpg | 2010-01-13 18:33:00 Author: IStwisted Posts: 428 |
| Ok yeah i agree dandy you up for it? What's the PSN name gonna be? | 2010-01-13 18:37:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
I guess I could do it, sure. The PSN would probably be something along the lines of "Glass Orb Project" or something. I'm gonna need to know for sure who's involved so that I can send invites to the right people, though. Plus, I (likely) gotta go through the Story Mode to get all the building stuff again. Anyone wanna help me out with that bit?  | 2010-01-13 19:03:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| You could always download a 100% save to get everything for that account. since you aren't worried about trophies. Gamefaqs has one. | 2010-01-13 19:07:00 Author: JKthree  Posts: 1125 |
| Good call. I, for some reason, thought there were problems using those saves for, like, online stuff and stuff, not just trophies. That just made my life a while lot easier. *presses Thanks! button* Oh, wait... | 2010-01-13 19:14:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Here's an idea put a question mark (?) next to anyone on the list who hasn't replied here and don't send them requests until they do reply here... | 2010-01-13 19:20:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Alright, then. Also, since this new setup doesn't automatically show PSN names, I'm gonna need those from you guys. EDIT: Ah, nevermind, I can get them from your profiles.

| Edit the first post with this as well. | 2010-01-13 19:39:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| First post has been updated. I'm gonna make the PSN in a sec, here. I'm still trying to come up with a name. Would "Glass Orb Project" be too obvious and/or lame? | 2010-01-13 19:44:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| I think The search for the glass orb series... i dunno we need more people to help decide... | 2010-01-13 19:46:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
Haha, that thread made me laugh. Sounds like a fun project. I'll have to think about it though  | 2010-01-13 19:47:00 Author: Plasmavore  Posts: 1913 |
| Well, the LogicPack was published under LogicPack, and I think yours might be a bit too long. But you're right, I'll hold off on the PSN for now. EDIT: @plasmavore: No problem. We haven't got much (if anything) done right now, so it's the perfect time to hop in. | 2010-01-13 19:48:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Should i go through the list and find out if the people with "?" are still up for it? | 2010-01-13 19:49:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Why not call it the TheGlassCabal? im good at creating! pick me pick me! | 2010-01-13 19:50:00 Author: Kern  Posts: 5078 |
Well sicne I just had a peek over at the LBPC Game thread and saw I wasn't chosen, and the LittleBigMyth group I'm in hasn't made any progress for about two weeks now, I might as well have a go at this, it sounds fun and I think you need an experienced Cardboard user in these levels.  Count me in! I'm good at thinking of stories and stuff so I could maybe write the script.. ? | 2010-01-13 19:53:00 Author: Plasmavore Posts: 1913 |
| make a social group for it, then with the new update we can have different discussions @Plasmavore; Accept me already! | 2010-01-13 19:57:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| Oh oh! Pick me too! xD | 2010-01-13 20:00:00 Author: iGotFancyPants  Posts: 1355 |
| Confirm my participation in the project. Sorry for the inactivity, I've been doing some other things. I also second Kernel's choice of TheGlassCabal. And I could co-write the story along with building, if Plasmavore is chosen | 2010-01-13 20:03:00 Author: Astrosimi  Posts: 2046 |
| Okay, first off, I'll go edit the first post really quick and add you guys to the "confirmed" list. Second, plasmavore, I was planning on doing the writing and planning and such (is that producing?) but we could co-write it. Third, I'll go make that group right now. The group will be invite-only so we don't get just anybody hopping in and messing it all up. | 2010-01-13 20:05:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Lol i just came to suggest making a social group! Make it private though! | 2010-01-13 20:06:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| It's made. Sending invites now. For the moment, until we get a set strategy, let's keep our discussions in a sort of "Social Board" discussion. Once planning starts, I'll set up some more, for each segment (I.E. Writing, Set Pieces, etc.). Sound good? EDIT: Invites have been sent to all currently confirmed members. | 2010-01-13 20:12:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| Yeah . see you there! | 2010-01-13 20:15:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Grand Inquisitor Ungreth has entered the chamber...:eek: | 2010-01-13 20:53:00 Author: Ungreth  Posts: 2130 |
| Good call. I, for some reason, thought there were problems using those saves for, like, online stuff and stuff, not just trophies. That just made my life a while lot easier. *presses Thanks! button* Oh, wait... Well there is the Reputation button, (that little star under each post) I guess thats the same thing... | 2010-01-13 21:53:00 Author: JKthree Posts: 1125 |
| Im still in add me | 2010-01-14 01:36:00 Author: Littlebigdude805  Posts: 1924 |
| Sorry guys, didn't even see the thread D: But yeah, i'd still like to help. As for PSN names, if you haven't made one yet, make it "The Grand Inquisitor" or something like that. | 2010-01-14 02:55:00 Author: gofurr360z  Posts: 886 |
| Not that I know much about this, but are you sure AGNAT or whatever has lbp? And is this level for him? | 2010-01-14 03:03:00 Author: Incinerator22  Posts: 3251 |
| No, the level is not for him its for LBPC as a community. | 2010-01-14 07:57:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| I don't know if this is related but I found an atgnat.com. on the net. Apparently "atgnat is a full-service video production and website design firm located in Houston, Texas" and they "offer high definition video production packages including internet videos, dvds and commercials". Anyway, how about calling the hotel The Schnitzelheimer? It's not a huge deviation from the original name and has a similar meaning (snigger), but it won't offend anyone. The word "schnitzel" is German for sausage, and it's pronounced like the name Fritzl, as in Josef Fritzl (the Austrian dude who kept his daughter in a cellar). BTW...is this project gonna be an online create affair, or it it a case of everyone makes their own bits and then submits 'em to their team leader to be built into the level? If it's online create, then I'll warn you now...my broadband connection's pretty rough! | 2010-01-14 08:36:00 Author: Ungreth Posts: 2130 |

A bit of both really if you can't play online don't worry too much you can make stuff on your own and they will be put into the level. | 2010-01-14 16:08:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Yeah, it's probably going to be more of "everyone give me everything and I'll put it together" sorta thing because I haven't the greatest connection either. | 2010-01-14 20:28:00 Author: dandygandy2704 Posts: 1002 |
| hell yeah im in | 2010-01-15 00:27:00 Author: rseah  Posts: 2701 |
| Hey, i know im not too well known around here, but every one of my levels is an honest 4 star, and im willing to help anyway that i can because this story gave me many lols. please message me on my psn with any request. i can help write story, build setpieces, build enemies... anything you need. | 2010-01-16 19:43:00 Author: poorjack  Posts: 1806 |
| Yeah i'm sure there's something you can help with, every little thing makes a big diffrence! | 2010-01-17 12:53:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| Doopz... we've discussed this. Jack, can we ask you what your strengths are, because currently we are looking for a skill, | 2010-01-17 12:56:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| I think poorjack fits the bill perfectly; hes an awesome creator Check out his Mythicos Series, you won't be disappointed. | 2010-01-17 13:00:00 Author: iGotFancyPants Posts: 1355 |
| How about we make a list of everyone's strengths so that we can allocate appropriate tasks and form skill- balanced teams. My own strength lies in aesthetics and building original, imaginative set pieces. I'm particularly good at making custom stickers and building complex, realistic looking objects. I'm not so good at producing complicated logic or novel gameplay mechanics, so my levels are often more of a strange and atmostpheric journey than solid platforming action. If anyone wants to see my capabilities for themselves, check out my Gothic Reverie levels. Or ask me nicely and I might send you a key to my new level Tenement, but I'll warn you...this was built for my own twisted amusement and not really intended for general public access, so it's not quite LBP as you know it. | 2010-01-17 13:18:00 Author: Ungreth Posts: 2130 |
ungreth... heckcay hetay roupgay...  | 2010-01-17 13:22:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| ungreth... heckcay hetay roupgay... Huh? I'm getting "check the group" from that, but I'm still not sure what you mean... Ok, forget that last comment...I get you now. I didn't realise I could access group discussions from my user CP. Oh well, you learn something new every day I guess! | 2010-01-17 14:45:00 Author: Ungreth Posts: 2130 |
| Huh? I'm getting "check the group" from that, but I'm still not sure what you mean... He means check the social group | 2010-01-17 14:50:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| my skillz, mad though they may be, include unique atmosphere, story writing, enemy creation, solid/functional level construction, im fairly good at keeping the feeling of a level constant, and ive recently ventured into the world of custom title screens | 2010-01-17 22:20:00 Author: poorjack Posts: 1806 |
| Wow... this sounds pretty cool, lol i would like to join but idk if im good enough of a creator...got three 4-star levels but it was more for fun than visuals, idk check them out if you have time and give me and answer(i am asking to join but no worries if you say no)but anyway i'll be following this project | 2010-01-18 22:25:00 Author: Racroz  Posts: 406 |
| dandygandys internets broke so the projects on pause | 2010-01-18 23:36:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| oh nose! who brokded the internet? | 2010-01-19 06:37:00 Author: poorjack Posts: 1806 |
| This is bad news ATGNAT must of got hold of the glass orb! It's the only thing powerful enough to do something like this! | 2010-01-19 17:57:00 Author: Doopz Posts: 5592 |
| I know this is a very old thread but the creator spotlight... threw a spotlight on it.. so to speak. While doing some google searching for information about level creating (new to LBP and trying to determine if I have the creative juice to even attempt level building) I came across lbpcentral and the creator spotlight which led me on the search of the missing Glass Orb. After reading the thread about ATGNAT's message I couldn't help but follow the whole story hoping that a level/series was actually created. So to end my excessive ranting for such a short question I will get to my point: Was a level/series ever created out of this? After all the hype I would love to play it. I haven't even played any of Ungeth's levels but after reading the spotlight I will be doing that when i get off work today! | 2011-01-20 22:08:00 Author: Zyan113 Posts: 5 |
| I can only confirm that we never ended up finishing it to my knowledge. Whether we end up finishing depends on who is still active and they are free to continue the project. I for one wouldn't mind putting some time aside to help with this, but I can't speak for everyone else. | 2011-01-20 23:57:00 Author: Astrosimi Posts: 2046 |
| lllllmmmmmmaaaaaaaooooooooooo I still have one of these levels sitting on my moon... still pretty decent quality, dunno what to do with it so... maybe we can return to this | 2011-01-21 00:05:00 Author: iGotFancyPants Posts: 1355 |
| That Orb would probably look a lot more awesome in LBP2 | 2011-01-21 01:05:00 Author: Astrosimi Posts: 2046 |
| umm.. as I stated I just started playing lbp so I don't know a thing about creating.. all I have done so far is run through the create tutorial. One thing that I was thinking would be cool is to have sackboy always chasing after the orb throughout the level.. the orb always staying out of his reach... and at the end of the series or level having the orb he has been chasing just be a cheap piece of glass.. or have something fall on it and smash it right when you think you are about to get it.. I don't know.. This has got my braining working with main plot ideas but I don't know if I am creative enough to actually create a level like the few that I have played on line by others... peoples imaginations amaze me.. | 2011-01-21 01:08:00 Author: Zyan113 Posts: 5 |
| Hey guys, I am good at making doors, planning out rooms, and I am getting better at sackbot programming. I also got the collectors edition and have lots of DLC costumes if that helps. I say the first level is very ominous, and its a giant obstacle course trying to get to room 63b. Eh? | 2011-01-21 02:17:00 Author: Ignition246  Posts: 156 |
| I believe ISTwisted is working on a film set for a machinima. | 2011-01-24 18:43:00 Author: Kern Posts: 5078 |
| I believe ISTwisted is working on a film set for a machinima. Two really cool sets... a recreation of the Dusseldorf sky line seen from the Rhine, and the Schwarts Hotel. Both half finished. Not a lot of time and constantly distracted by new ideas. Would be open to letting anyone from the group copy if you're interested in working on them. | 2011-01-25 02:07:00 Author: IStwisted Posts: 428 |
| Wow. This brings back memories! XD I'm surprised about all the new intrest! O_o So what's this Machinima then? | 2011-01-28 21:18:00 Author: Plasmavore Posts: 1913 |
| I remember this, man the official thread where this began was hilarious! I'd love to see this made someday | 2011-01-28 21:59:00 Author: kirbyman62  Posts: 1893 |
| So what's this Machinima then? Well, it was "machinima" when all I knew about LBP2 was you could make movies. When I heard about that and level linking I became less concerned about how the over-the-top detail was taxing the thermo and just kept working. Now that I've seen what the game is capable of I'm having all sorts of ideas. It'll definatly be more fun as a playable experience. Just more "guided" than you're average level. I'll elaborate more on specific ideas in the group pages. (very soon... hopefully) do you put it in a box box box box box?shhhhhhh | 2011-01-29 18:31:00 Author: IStwisted Posts: 428 |
| wow, this sounds amazing. I would like to help but due to lack of time and talent don't think would be able to. I do have some ideas though. From reading through the thread where this started to here, I hope this will be a comedy/action/thriller level. you know, sackboy in wrong place at the wrong time, mistaken identity, caught up in some super secret society. I hope you guys can finish this, because it sounds so intriguing. | 2011-01-31 21:00:00 Author: biorogue  Posts: 8424 |
| I want in on this. Not sure how I could be involved but I just would REALLY like to help. | 2011-03-14 23:37:00 Author: Unknown User  |
| Lol...deja vu. There was a load of creators who decided to make the glass orb level over a year ago, but it never came to fruition. And now this! Where on earth did you people drag this old horse from to start flogging it again? Besides....I already have the glass orb safely locked away in my vault | 2011-03-15 21:51:00 Author: Ungreth Posts: 2130 |
| i think most of us seen the first post that started it all mate =) it was class and made me lol its a shame no one made this level because i was looking forward to it =( | 2011-03-17 04:20:00 Author: reefer007  Posts: 54 |
| Lol...deja vu. There was a load of creators who decided to make the glass orb level over a year ago, but it never came to fruition. I never stopped And now this! Where on earth did you people drag this old horse from to start flogging it again? Besides....I already have the glass orb safely locked away in my vault I will publish something... sooner or later... | 2011-03-18 17:10:00 Author: IStwisted Posts: 428 |
