It’s that time again! When you boot up your copy of LittleBigPlanet 2 today, you’ll notice a game update available, 1.02. Following the new tradition, it’s got the name of a cake and this time it’s called: Apple Cake. Purely because Charlotte in our Testology team made some very delicious Apple Cake for everyone yesterday morning. Nom!

It’s not a huge update, but it does contain some fixes for some issues that some players have been experiencing. Here are the release notes!

• Fixed an issue where a player that imports a profile from a different user and declines the EULA can still play online. It should no longer be possible for a player that imports another users profile and declines the EULA to play online, selecting an online option should prompt them to re-read and accept/decline the EULA.
• Fixed an issue whereby a client leaving an online create session would hang when they opted to use the “Import Profile” option after being returned to their pod.
• Fixed an issue where some Japanese store text descriptions contained visible HTML tags.
• Fixed an issue where players that had imported beta profiles and were using DLC assets they didn’t own could still use them. In 1.01 we fixed a problem to do with importing assets from the beta trial build which allowed users access to some rare DLC items. Part of the fix was to check for stripped assets and not allow a user to select them in pop-it. The item however would still be visible in pop-it and have an exclamation mark over its icon. Players could highlight one of these items and very quickly press the O and X buttons with it highlighted which would allow the user to still wear it.

When you turn on your PS3 and fire up LittleBigPlanet today, you should be greeted by a game update, which we’ve nicknamed Cupcake, the cutest of all cakes, and one we’d like to give you on Valentine’s Day the day after Valentine’s day. We’ve been busy fixing some of the pesky problems that have been making some sackfolk’s games play up. 

Check the list below for the full update list

• Your Craft Earth should no longer obscure the pod when changing your PSN Avatar.
• If your POD was missing, blocked, broken or contained any create objects it shouldn’t have, it will now be reset to normal.
• A more accessible “Reset Pod” option is now available should your POD become broken for some reason! To access it:
• Pause the game / Press START
• Go to the Settings Menu
• Select Profile
• Select “Reset Pod Decoration”
 
• The “Naux” glitch / corrupt Sackboy problem should now be fixed - your Sackboy will no longer be squishy and unable to swim!
• DLC costumes and PODS that have been captured from community levels will no longer be selectable in pop-it. Anyone wearing a “glitched” DLC costume after patching will have it removed.
• Several improvements to overall game stability have been made.
• We’ve vanquished some evil code gremlins that were causing crashes and that has improved overall stability.
• Info bubbles that have long text descriptions (e.g. The sequencer) can now be scrolled in a fixed width text box.
• There is now a visual indicator showing how high a bounce pad will bounce you when tweaking it in Create mode.

• Emitting and destroying spawn points in quick succession should no longer make the game crawl into the corner and weep.
• LBP1 sound objects should now be correctly imported when using the option to do so when booting the game.
• It is no longer possible to access level links to LBP1 Story levels that you have hearted.
• The Clank Costume has green eyes again!
