Published Level, Locked w/ no Details

Archive: 10 posts


I'm really sorry, I know I have a bunch of posts in "Help" but more and more problems I've never encountered keep coming up and totally confusing me.

So I have a level which contains about 3 more sublevels. At the end of each there's a Level Link leading to the next part.
At the second to last level (the level leading to the last) many people are telling me that it's locked and can't get to the next part. They also say there's no Info. Like no picture and no details and no title. When I play, there isn't either but the link works for me.

Now recently I took that level, copied it and renamed it and did some major changes. I think that has something to do with it but I renamed it. When I publish changes, they show up to me. I seem to be the only person to access my level normally through my Earth.

After all this work, it's starting to make me kind of mad. Could someone help me identify this problem?
Thanks

i dont really have much on this so ill try troubleshooting..

are you asking the same person on the level or his freind? they could be messing with you
when did you upload the level? to publish the level it has to be spread through the server which could take some time
or it might have got greif reported, but im not sure if greif reports allow you to edit so it isnt grief or if the level gets removed

Did you update the level link in the prior level?

I'm guessing whatever changes you've made to that level have broken the link to it.

Yea, It's different people. And I can tell because the plays on the earlier levels are way higher and the final level remains the same when people try to play the whole thing through
when did you upload the level?

I uploaded it for the first time last Thursday. I updated it where it caused this problem either Sunday or Monday.
Did you update the level link in the prior level?

Yea, when I update one level I go through to the earlier level and update the level link after republishing. I've been doing this so I'm confused as to why the link is broken.


Thanks again

The LBP2 client caches level info, so, if you're not the publisher, you sometimes have to shut down and restart LBP2 for it to notice that the level has changed.

I think it actually caches the entire level, since I've managed to play levels after they've been deleted.

I would see how that would fix the issue (to refresh the level) however there is one user in particular who I've asked to play twice in two different times (turning off his PS3 and coming back to it later) and it still remained locked and "detail-less"



Thanks for helping me troubleshoot everyone.

Hi again.

So I finished the copied version and this is the order I tried to do it in.

1. I renamed the old, broken version
2. I renamed the new version to match the original, old name
3. I published the newer version while keeping the older, newly named level on my Earth
4. I went through all the levels backward and updated the new level links to make the newer version the playable level
5. I deleted the old level

NOW, everything is playable. But when you search it, it doesn't show up (not even for me) but it shows up on the newest levels

I made a new PSN user just to try it out from a different perspective which is how I know it works, but you have to go to my Earth to get to it (where its just an MM logo, not the real one)

Might help to specify which level you're referring to, so that others can test it.

"Total Execution: The Future is Now"

I notice something strange when I was compiling the list of the crown contest entrants, which is that, since the recent lbp.me update (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=59091-LBP.me-got-updated), the "Text Search" option only seems to return level results from LBP1.

I just re-tested, and it still seems to do the same. From another post (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=59150-LBPC-Crown-Contest-1-List-of-Entrants&p=878684&viewfull=1#post878684)...


As a workaround, you can go to Cool Levels, press triangle, and use the "filter by text" option to get all the results.

...which seems to return your level when I search for "total execution".
