I love learning about bugs in my favorite games and LBP's overlord glitch is definitely super interesting! It confused me when I first saw a run that used it but after watching a few more I quickly caught on to what they were doing and your in depth explanation provides more detail that is just the icing on the cake. It’s a super fun looking bug and I could see overlord being used for other things such as to add more hazards to a level!
pretty much this comment exactly, I never really knew what the overlord bug actually was until I watched the speedrun and this was a nice explanation of all the bugs used in the run
@@vysegaming-g3q Oh really? When I played one of the contraption challenge levels, the level link just DISAPPEARED permanently for no reason, forcing me to use the God Mode glitch. While I still like LBP3, this video is what early LBP3 was like, especially for PS4 users... and despite me playing LBP3 on the PS3, this glitch happened to me... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UNMYU8Fgtqs.html
Hey, doesn't a bit of dark matter glued to an object allow the emitter to spawn it inside objects? (At least in lbp1 and lbp2) Could this save time if you smear some dark matter on the scoreboard before putting it in the emitter the final time?
could you do a speedrun breakdown vid like this with a no create mode/overlord trick :) love your videos, thanks for keeping lpb youtube content going!
There's actually a glitch you could use to make the scoreboard intangible so it can always spawn! - Create a scoreboard and material change the base to dark matter - Create a block of gas and connect it to the scoreboard with any linear connector (string, rod, etc) - Change the controller to player 2 - Capture the scoreboard+gas - Create an emitter and configure it to emit the scoreboard+gas, but when you're positioning the transparent "ghost" version of the scoreboard, DON'T press X - Instead, change the controller back to player 1 while still having the ghost scoreboard out - Undo and redo before player 2 despawns - Despawn player 2 - Undo and redo again, the ghost scoreboard will now actually exist in the level! - Ghost objects are intangible and can't be interacted with in any way including popit, with the exception of connector endpoints. Select the endpoint attached to the gas block and it will return to being a normal object, but the scoreboard on the other end will stay as a ghost object - Capture the gas block, which will also capture the ghost scoreboard. Now you can use it as the emitted object with the Overlord Glitch!
Yes, but the cheat code is exactly that: cheating. An argument could be made to allow it since it is a part of the game just like all of the other tricks. I didn't make the rules though, nor do I know the complete reasoning behind them.
I doubt it’s by a huge margin but everything counts in a speedrun, so any extra time the game spends loading or dealing with music changes at all can matter
Since I'm on an SSD it honestly doesn't matter too much, but on slower consoles it can freeze the game few a couple of frames when the music gets activated. In this category it can really make the windmill reload a lot harder, and it can effect First Steps too.
