Level Linking Question

Archive: 4 posts


Hi people,

I just had a quick question about level linking. I have an intro movie to my story level which is fairly busy and takes up lot of heat, so I've set that up on a level on it's own, with the idea that when the movie is finished, you press triangle to level-link to the actual level.

I'm just looking for advice on the best way to do this. Do I upload the actual level first and then the movie intro level linked to the playable level?

Is there any way that the only way to access the playable level is if you have watched the movie, etc.

Sorry if I've not explained this well enough.


Example, the popular micro machines level has an intro and then a level link, but everyone goes to the intro part first, if ya get me.

Thanks in advance, guys.

Well you should actually upload the movie then upload the level,or you could put a coming soon sign on it.Maybe lock the playable level until the movie is played then it should be accurate. Youre not that good at explaining either good luck. Need more help click here.

Hi people,

I just had a quick question about level linking. I have an intro movie to my story level which is fairly busy and takes up lot of heat, so I've set that up on a level on it's own, with the idea that when the movie is finished, you press triangle to level-link to the actual level.

Unless you give the player control of his character at the end of the movie, they won't be able to push triangle. It may be better to trigger the level link using a sensor, or if you're using a sequencer, put a permanent switch (counter set to 1) at the tail end of the sequence and connect that to the level link.

That's not the best way to do it, it's the only way. You can only level-link to published levels, so publish the playable level, then set the level link in your movie level and publish that.

Is there any way that the only way to access the playable level is if you have watched the movie, etc.


Publish the playable level as a "Sub-level" by checking the correct box on the Publish screen. This will make it so the level can't be seen on your Earth by any other players and can only be accessed via the level link in the movie level.

Perfect, this makes sense now. Thank you!

The player gets control at the end of the movie, but I never thought of an auto-link. Thanks for that too!
