When you turn on your PS3 and fire up LittleBigPlanet today, you should be greeted by a game update, we?ve named nicknamed Cupcake, the cutest of all cakes, and one we’d like to give you <s>on Valentine’s Day</s> the day after Valentine’s day. We?ve been busy fixing some of the pesky problems that have been making some sackfolk?s games play up.

Here is full list of fixes in Cupcake? (link to MM blog (http://www.mediamolecule.com/blog/article/lbp2_game_update_1.01_-_cupcake/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+MediaMoleculeBlog+Media+Molec ule+Blog))

* Your Craft Earth should no longer obscure the pod when changing your PSN Avatar.
* If your POD was missing, blocked, broken or contained any create objects it shouldn?t have, it will now be reset to normal.
* A more accessible ?Reset Pod? option is now available should your POD become broken for some reason! To access it:
o Pause the game / Press START
o Go to the Settings Menu
o Select Profile
o Select ?Reset Pod Decoration?
The ?Naux? glitch / corrupt Sackboy problem should now be fixed - your Sackboy will no longer be squishy and unable to swim!
* * DLC costumes and PODS that have been captured from community levels will no longer be selectable in pop-it. Anyone wearing a ?glitched? DLC costume after patching will have it removed.
* Several improvements to overall game stability have been made.
* We?ve vanquished some evil code gremlins that were causing crashes and that has improved overall stability.
* Info bubbles that have long text descriptions (e.g. The sequencer) can now be scrolled in a fixed width text box.
* There is now a visual indicator showing how high a bounce pad will bounce you when tweaking it in Create mode.
* Stickers and decorations that are placed on Sackboy only will not appear in the used objects page.
* Level keys can now be deleted from Pop-it!
* You can?t watch the credits while already watching them after completing the game.
* It should now be possible to re-enter your shopping cart if you accidentally signed out when it had some items in it.
* Players will now be prompted to save the changes made to their level in Create when switching to Play Mode after having changed the Audio Reverb.
* Emitting and destroying spawn points in quick succession should no longer make the game crawl into the corner and weep.
* LBP1 sound objects should now be correctly imported when using the option to do so when booting the game.
* It is no longer possible to access level links to LBP1 Story levels that you have hearted.

The credits play at the end of story mode. You can also access the credits in the Pause menu. I imagine you can't play the credits from the Pause menu if you are watching the credits play in story mode.

A welcome bunch of updates, especially the DLC fix, the Naux fix (I didn't have it, but it's nice to know it's fixed), the bounce pads, and the keys
and as bad as it sounds, I'm pleased they didn't take any extreme action on people who had obtained fake crowns (as I got one out of curiousity, wondering what the fuss was about, and didn't get around to deleting it before the update)

It is no longer possible to access level links to LBP1 Story levels that you have hearted.
What happened if you tried to play one before the update? Just didn't load?

Cheers for fixes MM.

How much is the Download?

Price or size? Price, it's free. Size, about 7000 KB I think, not very big at all.

Also, somehow the Earth materials have gone completly invisible. Be it story, your's, anyone elses. Gone. Except for decorations, I think.

Awesome! A new update! So, I'm guessing the new patch codenames will be names of pastries, huh?

What? What's that mean? That doesn't sound good...

Thanks Mm!

Glad those DLC stealers will lose their DLC, now there's actually some pride in getting a crown (as in LBP1) and the knowledge that some noob hasn't got it the unfair way.

Oh, and there's the pin

The Bounce Pad thing looks cool too. Thanks again, Mm!

If you entered a level link that linked to an LBP1 level, you would get transferred into that level.

"Level keys can now be deleted from Pop-it!
It is no longer possible to access level links to LBP1 Story levels that you have hearted. "

..Can someone explain how these are useful? I don't really get it. The keys I see are understandable, but not yay worthy, and I don't see any point to the LBP1 Hearted Level Link one. xD
I probably sound rude. I'm just curious though. Mm has SOME reason, right?

EDIT: Just realized it was STORY levels.. haha. Misread. Well still, does the first one have any "hidden purpose"? I see yays and I don't think I'd yay ._.

Before if someone sent you a key it'd stay in your popit and you couldn't delete it, and since it's been like that since the beginning of time, people probably have a huge amount of keys blocking up their popit by now. So it's a relief to be able to get rid of them.

I have a question, for people that gained the crown, after the patch when the crown costume is gone, would the royalty pin re-lock?2011-02-15 23:14:00

Fake crowns never gave the pin.

After installing the update, 80% of the emitters in my level had changed the method of object destruction to "splat". I have a LOT of emitters in my level...

Interested in the LBP1 sound object fix... I'd noticed that if I tried to edit one, it was instant level crash. When I get home I'll have to check that out...

Some nice fixes there at last and a welcome addition being able to see the height of bounce pads when tweaking.

It would have been better to see the major bugs fixed first though, such as the horrendous flashing loading screens. That's doing my head in. I can't believe they haven't done something about that!

Also they say "stability" is improved but not in my experience it isn't. I've had several "game diverged" instances since the patch. It obviously wasn't much of a patch anyway because it only took a few seconds to install. That's the quickest patch install in history.

Probably not the way it works, all the LBP1 levels are stored on the LBP1 disc, not on the server. Never tried this "exploit" but it probably just gave you a "Failed to load level" error if you tried to travel through the link as the level technically doesn't exist on LBP2.

No worry, I actually stumbled on it for a minute or two also.

Well, I tried it, and you could actually play the level, which would probably be a problem if it were to in a community level. All those people with only LBP2 would get all that stuff for free!

The funniest part of the update taking away the fake crown? Less than six hours before it hit, I had been playing with a friend and we picked up another player. We went into create mode, and he placed a crown sackboy down. I kept telling him that MM hates that he has that and to beware of update 1.01, but he wouldn't listen. six hours later, I got a PSN message from him about the update and how I was right and how sad he is. I loled at him and said I told you so, etc. but in a nicer way than that sounds.2011-02-16 08:05:00

I'm quite disappointed that the missing hazard tool bug hasn't been solved.
I'm sure that saving the money of DLC was more important.
Anyway...let's keep waiting
