Paintinator fire other stuff?...

Archive: 15 posts


Is there a way that you can get the paintinator to fire other stuff yet without having to use a sackbot? As in just pick it up and use it as normal?

Cheers

Someone might have a much better understanding, but as far as I am aware, you can only fire paint from the paintanator. The creatinator is a different story, however

I might be wrong, as I've been out of LBP for quite some time

if you use a sackbot you can make it fire anything. I was just hoping there was a way to use it without one by now as i have been away also2014-03-16 19:55:00

You are definitely thinking of the creatinator. The creatinator is exactly like a paintinator (AKA a portable emitter that fires paint balls) except you decide what is thrown out. You don't need a sackbot to use the creatinator.2014-03-16 22:03:00

No. No I'm not. If you get out a paintinator and then get out a sackbot and pass it through the paintinator so it picks it up. You then press in L3 to copy the sackbot and when you press X to place the copy, keep X held down and it will let you change the paintinators ammo. Trust me, i've done it countless times and i know the difference between a paintinator and creatinator 2014-03-16 22:13:00

I agree with Kolt

I don't ever remember there being a way to edit the paintanator for personal use, and with the addition of the creatinator, it kind of made it irrelevant to ever develop said thing.

What was it you wanted to emit?

Okay, well the answer is no, there is no known way of doing that with your own character Perhaps you will be the first to find a way Become a legend of Paintinator users, Teenwulf 2014-03-16 22:26:00

I just think using a gun looks better than a helmet when firing stuff. There's gotta be a way. THERE'S GOTTA BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! 2014-03-16 22:33:00

I know what you mean, it's something that should have been thought about. The creatinator will do everything you ask for, but I suppose it defeats the purpose of using paint guns etc. Tricky one, but I honestly think that, without glitching the game in some new way, you're a bit stuck 2014-03-16 22:41:00

As far as I know there isn't a way to do it with your character, only the Sackbot. However you could use a transmitter and receiver to control the Sackbot and make him look how you want. But besides that, the only way for an actual looking gun is to make one. I do agree though, actual looking guns are much better than the creatinator!2014-03-16 22:45:00

Yeah, i was hoping to avoid using sackbots (again) but I guess I'll have to. SOMEONE GET ON IT!! 2014-03-16 22:57:00

It might have been a glitch in LBP1 or previous updates of LBP2. I think there is some glitch to use the paintinator as a decoration on your sackbot/boy by breaking the base (I could be way off on that, but i remember someone doing something like that (or maybe I made it up and am delusional )).2014-03-17 03:51:00

It is a glitch but you can do it now in LBP2 and it's not for decoration. If you take control of the sackbot you can fire the paintinator as usual and change its ammo with the technique above ^^^^

But seeing as i've been away from LBP for a while I was just hoping someone might have made it possible without the sackbot. But sadly not

If you make the level single player you can make an invisible object that follows the player and is controlled by a controlinator set to nearest player. The object can be wired to the right stick controls. Pop an emitter on it and there you go. Set the paintinator to the least amount of ammo, I don't know if 0 is possible.

I have done something similar to this with sackbots, never with players. Let me know if it works.
