1.08 patch is live now

Jan 26th 2009 - 3:16 AM

imageMultiple reports from the field have arrived in Planetoid Central this evening to tell us that patch 1.08 has hit the servers, three weeks earlier than expected. This patch, nicknamed Edam by Media Molecule (at least we assume this is Edam, it could be an unknown cheese!), should contain a whole bunch of bug fixes, some of which are fairly major ones that have been causing trouble left, right, and center for the last few weeks.

Actual content is so far unconfirmed - Let’s hope everything is fixed now though, huh?

The outlined plans for this patch are listed below, let us know what is and isn’t included!

Edam contains a set of bug fixes and is currently in testing. Specifically the fixes are:

  • Failed to save profile’ message not being displayed when a users profile is full.
  • Object Capture Bug: switch connectors being deleted when an object is captured.
  • Failed to load profile issue: where the user is thrown out to the XMB due to a texture that is not registered in their profile being present in their pod.
  • Text not displaying in the text chat window.
  • Slow rewind due to moderation check.
  • Save file corruption which caused the game to crash when placing any object in an emitter in any level.


Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

Update 1: It looks like this patch could just be related to the forthcoming availability of the God of War costume pack, and not as we all hoped the much needed changes to the game. It’s waaaay past our bed time here on the Planetoid, hopefully the morning will bring with it some clarification!

imageUpdate 2: We can confirm that this patch is 13Mb and we notice that it has re-arranged selected content in the LittleBigStore. This screenshot shows how the Kratos’ costume now appears for players who’ve already downloaded it (the God of War pack icon showing the three costumes no longer appears to players who’ve not already downloaded it). This makes sense as the Kratos costume and God of War pack are out on Thursday.
We’ve heard reports of some players still having problems with LBP, so we’re still not 100% sure that the patch is Edam - we’ll report back when we hear confirmation.

Update 3: This patch has been confirmed as a content-only patch, installing the latest costume textures (required for players to see other people online who are using the latest DLC costumes). It’s *not* Edam.

yep i put in LBP and yep edam is live!
in in australia so i dunno bout the rest of you but yay!

Anchor

This proves that while people have a lot on their plate, with enough complaints, developers will rush a patch.

Take that Microsoft/Castle Crashers.

Anchor

lol nice thanks for the info, this site is so underrated

Anchor

Yeah this site is the #1 lbp news for me, news get updated really fast.

Anchor

KeyPad chat display still not working!!!

adhoc party and home do this fine and well, but LBP is faulty - come on MM get this fixed…

Anchor

^^ Not this patch, wait till the next patch (Cornish Yarg) hopefully.

Anchor

Are we POSITIVE Edam = 1.08 ?

Anchor

True true, this site rocks! Why isn’t Google listing this site on top? Google!, get your act together and put some more effort in those alogrithms of yours and give this page a Page Rank of 10 smile

Downloaded here in Canada, quick and easy…. so assuming it’s all over in North America…... not sure what it did but happy to see Media Molecule doing something….. makes 3 of us in this household very happy!!!!!

Anchor

Yeah this site needs more recognition, Il try to get it more advertised :D

#1 LBP Site on the web.

Anchor

Thanks for all your kind words folks smile

We only assume this is edam, but until actual confirmation comes in, we can’t be sure - it could be an unknown cheese with unkown content, edam seems most likely though from previous reports.

Anchor

I think this is mainly for costumes. Everyone knows the DLC content is transferred via patches, then unlocked via store (when purchased) - so at least that is not getting delayed again… This patch doesn’t SEEM to change anything in the game, but I hope coop play is SMOOTHER…

(also, this site is AMAZING…)

Anchor

Posting on other forum and redirecting source here smile

Hope that way this site gets more traffic :D


If that’s ok?

I’ve been getting 403 server errors today since updating.  Am I alone?  Not sure if it was the patch or not since I haven’t play LBP in a few days.

Anchor

um i have seen only one change in my LBP game cause of this patch. my GoW bubble split in half, showing the mini level bubble and then a kratos bubble. other than that, i notice no diffrence

Anchor

Man, how dissappointing, seems this might just be the costume update…. I’ve udpated the story to reflect that, and let’s hope the morning brings us some confirmation…

Thanks for all the nice comments btw!  Hopefully they can get the real Edam out soon - I wonder what cheese this one is if it isn’t edam!

Anchor

what typ of cheese could this be if not edam? Maybe probalone-chedder? Gouda? Who knows!

Anchor

“Text not displaying in the text chat window.“ Finally fixed.

Anchor

o no where is the chinese costume suppost to be out today and is not there i ps store any idies :(

Anchor

I don’ think that this patch is the long waited patch.

I’ve installed it (knowing that I have a save bug). And I still have some issue saving….

For instance, I missed 1 objet that I can get easily playing alone.
I installed patch 1.08. Played the level. Got the missing Item. Finished the level et went back to my pod. Then I quitted the game. Relaunched it and the item I unlocked was gone…... So if I understand well, this is not good…

I have the MGS Pack, so I suppose that I have the MGS pack bug or something like that….

Anchor

Just downloaded the patch and noticed the new chinese costume pack is up.

Anchor

A strange patch this one: I was having the `failed to load player profile` error with my save game - this patch appears to have fixed it.

Also when rating levels there`s a new `tinkle` sound effect - unless I never noticed it before?

Anchor

It gets weirder and weirder…

Anchor

uh hi Media molecelous today is 26 in maryland and some how the costume is not in the playstation network or in the little big store can you plz reply i really want the costume

Anchor

Grrrrrrrr :@ . The Save Glitch make me angry when i play it , this stupid message start to Annoying me .

Anchor

I still am getting cannot save message everytime i play especially when a pic is taken or something,
some stuff i’m getting and cannot find it to delete it from the community lvls pretty annoying especially considering it likes to pop up mid jump usually over a pit or spikes lol.
