Spore ModAPI

[zachyaboy]

So, after a loooong time of experiments, I successfully installed some mods (Dark Injection and Force Save). but for some reason it just does not want to work.
I have the Spore ModAPI Launcher pinned on my taskbar, and everytime I run it, this error message appears:

(If the Image didn't appear, the message is "Could not find default preferences. The data directory is missing or corrupt.".)
I tried going to the launcher's location in my files and run it from there, but it didn't work aswell. The game also doesn't even open if I run it from Origin!
Anyways, my laptop has 8GB RAM, 1TB of space in total(584GB free), and I had the Steam version of Spore, before getting the Origin Key and transfering it to Origin.
Please, help me, I was really excited to play Modded Spore, and I don't want to give up on trying to play it.
Edit: I forgot to mention, I have C&C, GA, and the newest version of Spore.

I have the same problem. help

Is there any way to fully Uninstall Spore ModAPI?

I have a problem with the spore modapi launcher kit. When I open the installer, I choose the "first time" option, choose the path, and click install. As it should be. I get the screen with "installing" for a moment, the bar stays empty, and then the window closes. Do you know what could be the cause of that?

EDIT: fixed the problem by reinstalling the modapi

realized i wanted to reset my galaxy, closed the game & deleted game0 folder

I had this error too.
It was caused by antivirus.
I needed to reinstall antivirus.
I had avast and it got bugged.
Reinstalled and had after restart check from usb.
Clean and modapi started to work again.
Or just turn it off when playing.

Hello, I've been having major issues with the ModAPI and trying to run Adventures on Space Stage. (Origin btw)

Basically, every time I load a save it asks me to name my captain again, if I look at the timeline and hover over my captain it says "Unknown Captain" with a string of code or something, and when i go to the first mission world and try to zoom in the game crashes when loading up the page that lets you beam down. It's very consistent. The only thing I use the ModAPI for is SnekyGraphics, but i also run the shiny tweak and at 60fps. If I run spore without SnekyGraphics but still through the API, the game crashes. But when I run it without the API at all, I name my captain and the name appears in the timeline, and then I can enter the Adventure world.

I've uninstalled and deleted everything multiple times, went into appdata and programdata to remove all traces of the modapi, but when i install it all again it keeps happening. Currently using ModAPI version 1.2.0.11, spore is on the assymmetry patch, I obviously have GA and C&C.

Please help, it kills me to think I fixed this, get through all the stages and crash on the first mission, i just want my game to be pretty

I know it's been a couple of months, but I've been having the same problem. Every time I load my save, it asks me to name my captain, and it won't let me beam down. I have a decent amount of mods installed, but I uninstalled all the adventure-related ones.

Hello. There was a problem with the Dark Injection v9 beta mod.

I play pirate
spore versions.

Spore GA version 3.1.022;

The regular Spore version is 1.3.022.

The problem is that the mod does not work even when I opened the game through the launcher (also tried through the administrator) and I don't know what to do. I installed several pirated versions of Spore and still, it didn't work for all of these versions. Tried reinstalling Spore ModAPI. Help me please

(I hope I turn to the correct topic)

I play pirate
spore versions.

We don't support pirated copies of Spore. Either buy a legal copy (preferably from anywhere but Steam) or don't play Spore.
(also, using DI on a pirated copy of Spore breaks DI's ToS IIRC)

Hello, how do you completely uninstall the ModAPI? For some reason Spore doesn't work in fullscreen on my laptop so I either have to force it to run in 640x480 fullscreen, or 1920x1080 windowed. The base game and GA work this way but the ModAPI launcher can't be forced to run in that resolution, and now it crashes the game everytime it's launched, even when trying to launch the GA executable. Only the base game launcher works now. Is there a way to modify the resolution the ModAPI Launcher launches the game? Or how to completely uninstall it? Thanks in advance

The launcher keeps launching Spore with the less-powerful integrated graphics and not the graphics card, even when I set the launcher to use the graphics card. Is there a way to fix this yet?

Yes - setting Spore itself to use the dedicated GPU.
Switching to a dedicated GPU won't fix the 30 FPS limit or the flat graphics, those need to be fixed separately. There are threads on Davoonline about fixing both of those.

it says there has been an error injectings mods or something it never happened to me before I tried reinstalling the modapi and mods still didn't work

[EyoZenExtras]

When I open Spore dark injection I get an error that the Spore ModAPI launcher is not detected

[EyoZenExtras]

How do i fix it?

[VanillaCold]

When I open Spore dark injection I get an error that the Spore ModAPI launcher is not detected

1. Where did you buy and install Spore from?
2. Are you running Spore through the Spore ModAPI Launcher Kit or not?
