Levels not saving... anyone have this problem?

Archive: 12 posts


So I noticed lately my levels aren't saving all the work I do. I save religiously while I'm working and haven't had any crashes within create mode or anything. Yesterday I spent a good chunk of my night creating stuff, checked it out in play mode, played a few community levels, then called it a night.

Only half of it saved and I have to do some things all over again. Never had a system crash or failure of any kind during these moments...And best of all? My thermo stays about the same as where it was when my stuff was there.

That's no good mate, I've never had that exact problem, but I've had issues with saving while someone else was in edit with me....LBP does really seem chock full of glitches and errors....let's hope they sort this stuff out for LBP2! 2010-10-10 17:04:00

I had the same problem the other day, but for some reason it seems to have fixed itself without me doing anything. I made an awesome dance club on wheels, now it's all gone.2010-10-10 18:01:00

Back up your profile after saving. I had something like this happen to me once.2010-10-11 04:22:00

Oh my.... not this again!, I remember that nasty problem! Wasn't it supposed to be patched already by Mm?!, I lost so many levels progress because of this infamous not saving thing!, and I don't think the issue is that hes profile is filing up, I have 30+ costumes, full stickers (cant add any more) and a full moon and my levels do save properly!, probably its a profile issue, I would recommend the same mentioned above, try to do a profile back up whenever you are about to quit the game, also make sure to check that the running sackboy icon is disappears when you are about to quit the game and/or turn off the console.2010-10-11 05:25:00

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, as far as I know the "profile is too large" was patched out already.

I make regular HDD backups of my levels as I save, but not of the profile. I guess I should do that too. It's sad when I go to make my HDD backup and it already lost the data

I think one issue with it is like you mentioned, making sure the running icon disappears. I remember once I was hitting save someone sent an invite and boom I' m thrown out of the level, when I go back a ton didn't save.

The odd thing is though... I save religiously. I mean almost everytime I add something, and everytime I go from playmode to pause mode. And yet I still lose hours and hours of work, it should've had time to save, no?

Is there a certain point that it goes back to after youved saved and then go back to edit? I had a profile error where my level was saved to a certain point, after that it just wouldn't save anymore that I added, I fixed this by using an old backup of my profile, see if your level will only save to a certain point, it will most defintely be a profile error if it does.2010-10-11 15:18:00

That was something that happened a lot... say I work for 1 hour, it'll save 30 min of that and the rest are poof, even though if I captured something as an object it would still be in my goodies bag.

that's because items saved in the goodies bag are saved instantly, levels usually don't save when you press save, they will save changes when you return to your pod (hence you will see the running sackboy there)

I had the same problem a few days ago. When I noticed it was occurring and my levels weren't saving, I immediately backed up my profile, not because I thought it would solve the problem, but because I was gonna try and trouble-shoot. I made a level with a box in it, saved, turned off PS3 and turned on, and the level was still there. Hasn't occurred since, and that was the first time it happened for me. I was also working on a level at the time where I was abusing the thermo glitch, so I dunno if that has anything to do with it.2010-10-11 19:06:00

I never abuse glitches in the game specifically because I don't want anything to break...

Now i"m being extra conscious of letting the running sackboy icon go away , Isave multiple copies on my moon, I back up my profile, and I do backups of the level to the HDD. So far so good.
