Notes

The Cutting Room Floor research
  • Dated about a year and 5 months before final build.
  • This build was pitched to Sony and accepted to be worked into the finalized version of LittleBigPlanet 3.
  • A majority of the game's content was stripped from this build (levels, popit items, etc) due to being designed as a demo build. This can be partly fixed by simply merging September 7, 2013 prototype's blurayguids.map and data.farc files with this build's files. Same can be done for the files in the gamedata folder without overwriting the Pitch build's files.
    • As a bonus of merging September 7, 2013 prototype's blurayguids.map and data.farc with this build's files is it fixes annoying errors with hovering over logic and decals and tweak menus for some objects.
  • This features much earlier game mechanics and slightly earlier versions of levels seen in the September 7, 2013 prototype. In comparison to the final game, it is drastically different.
  • Every option in the pod's main menu except for Adventure button isn't selectable and therefore, the game has to be manually patched to remove the restriction.
  • Timestamps on each file listed in blurayguids.map is fairly accurate to when they were added in the files throughout LBP3's development up to this build which isn't normally the case with any other LBP prototype.
  • Development assets for LittleBigPlanet 1 and 2 unique to this build can be found in the files.

RPCS3 Boot Notes

  • In order to run the build with the patch on RPCS3, you will need to delete data.edat from USRDIR.
