So I decided to play some Spore on the space stage.

I just couldn't resist.

I keep on doing similar things with other games...trying to add a "Kerbal influence". Wish I could play Project Zomboid as a Kerbal...

[Galacticruler]

how funny, I reinstalled spore a few days ago and have been using mods to enhance the gameplay.

I suggest you check the following out:

http://www.davoonline.com/sporemods/ <- Dark Injection(DArk spore parts and more put into spore. 3 pages of creature editing tabs!)

http://www.davoonline.com/download/ <-I suggest firespore7test, faster_ufo, giant_parts(infinite size on parts), fixinterstellar, biggersystems 1-15, ulimitedsol, more_traderoutes(has an infinite option), and galacticcodenobreak. I suggest those because platinum spore and fire spore both contain most if not all of the other ones on this page.

I too tried making a Kerbal in spore:

Needs some...neck stiffening...try increasing the volume of the neck...or changing it to a single segment limb.

My computer's too new to run spore. Or at least the version I had before, although it was super buggy. All stars and planets were called BAD_DATA, so a mission was "Go to planet BAD_DATA, orbiting the star BAD_DATA, which is within 20 parsecs of the red star BAD_DATA."

Can you redownload Spore and just login with your account? Or do you need to buy it again to get it back onto your computer?

[Dizzle]

I don't know, but if you do have to buy it again, it's on sale on Steam for $5.00 until the 24th.

[Galacticruler]

well, that is a common error now-a-days. As it happens, its a corrupt file in the name-generator, and is a game breaker.

Contact me on Steam under the name "Ace_of_Tanks". I'll have an "Atheism Inside" avatar.

go to your library, right click on spore, remove local content. then install again. once done with that and updates, log in and you should be good...but you'll have lost any unshared work and all downloaded content

no need to re-purchase.

Lol, Spore... loved the concept of starting out, working your way to being the dominant species, and then warring with your own species. Defines the stupidity of humanity to a T.

I originally got spore physical, like from a box. Can I get it free from steam then?

[Zuni]

Wait, it's an effing PC game. I played it on mac before!

I'll be safe and say probably not...but contact valve, see if there is a workaround here.(I'd love to know)

the Games for Windows icon simply means its supported, the disk install works fro both PC and Mac.

[The Destroyer]

I don't have hand yet, but for the first generation it looks OK

EDIT: Hands on! Literally.

should've gone omnivore.

[The Destroyer]

He is omnivore. For some reason, his plant eating things are on his head, invisable everywhere except outside and in paint.

More progress! He's a good singer.

EDIT: Progress! Early uh.. "space suit" for tribe.

that is one complex kerbal...

[The Destroyer]

A poor attempt at a VAB.

Sadly, the kerbal is way too complex to add the parts that I wanted, but oh well, heres and improvement.

hmmm...noticing an error here, that kerbal has less forehead than it should.

Berbals have a normalish face with another head's worth of forehead, unlike that little guy you built.
