Drawability to Smearability and Neon Skeleton Glitch

Archive: 6 posts


I was wondering how people made lava smearable and I realized that the secret was something that involved making just regular materials smearable. In other words, some story items copied from levels are smearable while others are not. Does anyone know what the difference is? Is it possible that someone found lava in a different level that is smearable? Whatever the case, if you have answers... post them please... and yes, I searched. Please don't flame me because I couldn't find anything.

ALSO I figure you guys posted this somewhere else already but here is a treat in case it hasn't been posted. For anyone looking to do the "Neon Skeleton Glitch" it is still possible, and yes, it works in GOTY.

To do it, goto my moon, make a big (or little) piece of cardboard (any material will work) and glue it to the ground. Electrify it, pause the game, and un pause it. Jump onto it and rewind while you are getting electrocuted. Un pause and repeat as necessary, no controller disconnecting necessary . I find it useful to Fast Forward on occasion but if that doesn't work, just do the normal method. Hope that helps someone! Also, again, don't flame me for posting this, I am NOT taking credit for it, I just wanted to interject it for the sake of interjecting.

Hope to get some answers back, thanks guys! Peace and love <3!

Can't you smear the lava material if you take it out of the snapping plant thing yourself?

And it's cool that the skeleton glitch works, incredibly I still have my neon skeleton from the day I got the game, it's my only costume that hasn't glitched at least once
But if it does it's good to know I can get it back

The way to make smearable lava is to extract it from the plant in a version of LBP prior to Cornish Yarg. After Yarg, all objects collected from Story Mode became uneditable.

Since Yarg, it's only possible to make materials from Story Mode objects editable by dividing them into two pieces. One of the pieces will be deemed to have been created by the person dividing the object, and will lose all edit restrictions. Unfortuately, the only way to do this is by using bombs, and they only work on materials which can be destroyed by bombs, which doesn't apply to lava.

As for the editable/smearable distinction: any material which had a sticker or decoration attached before being captured is unsmearable, but if you remove all stickers, and recapture the object, it will become smearable again. Sadly the same is not true for decorations. Once an object is captured which has a decoration on it, there's no way to make it smearable again.

This also applies to MM objects, which is why the lava from the plant can be made smearable (because it has no decorations), but the carboard wood from the Meerkat can't.

It's cardboard sponge actualy.


And as for the bomb method, materials without stickers that are hidden can be made smearable. Those with stickers will have to follow the above statement, or just remove stickers/decorations and use the bomb method to make it drawable.

I have a piece of smeareable lava. I got it from a level. It was in the community spotlight at some point.

Though strangely, you can only smear it diagonaly. If you press and hold 'X' and try to drag it right, it goes right but diagonally upwards - though you can corner edit it.

There's many samples floating around, or you can make a fresh one if you're prepared to roll back your LBP version.



Though strangely, you can only smear it diagonaly. If you press and hold 'X' and try to drag it right, it goes right but diagonally upwards - though you can corner edit it.

That's because the texture is out of alignment with the shape. You can fix it like this:-


Make a fairly large square of lava (say 8x8 small grid units).
Make a slightly larger square of another material (I usually use dissolve).
Cut a 4x4 perfect circle out of the dissolve.
Now select the dissolve, press L3 to copy, move it on top of the lava, and press triangle to cut the lava so you're left with a 4x4 perfect circle of lava.
Now turn on grid mode, select the lava, and rotate it once, and it will snap the texture to the right angle.
Enlarge the circle of lava until it's 8x8 units.
Make another 8x8 square of dissolve, cut a 4x4 perfect square out of it, and similarly to step 4, use that to cut into the 8x8 circle of lava.
You should be left with a 4x4 square of lava whose texture is correctly aligned, so save that, so you don't have to do all this again.
