Spore ModAPI

[rob55rod]

I have a problem regarding the launcher itself. Every time I open it, even if I run it as Administrator, it says "Could not execute Spore Galactic Adventures. Only a part of ReadProcessMemory and WriteProcessMemory was completed," and none of the mods I've installed are showing in-game. I'm running GA on Steam, so could that possibly contribute to it?

It's nothing to do with Steam. What mods are you trying to use?

The Enhanced Color Picker, UPR, and Infinite Scaling at the moment.

That...

Okay. If you have any kind of antivirus, try adding an exception for the ModAPI Launcher. Let me know how that works out, and we'll see what else can be done, if needed.

(imusingmcafee)It still shows the error message, even if I added the exception. It doesn't show the exe in the quarantined items section either.

...well there goes that hypothesis.

I'd be lying if I said I knew exactly what the problem is, but what I can say for sure is that I've heard some indication that uninstalling and reinstalling the game can, in some cases, resolve it...whatever "it" may be.

However, if you're going to go that route, I'd recommend backing up your creations and save data first. If you need a hand doing so, I'd be happy to meet up with you on SMC and guide you through that mess. It'll have to be tomorrow though, so...if you do need a hand, leave me a DM, and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Okay, I think I fixed it.
It had nothing to do with a re-install actually, but I did it anyway. Apparently I had Origin on my computer(i only had it to install the asymmetry update), and had to uninstall it. It still kept the update, though, so that's nice. I think it was conflicting with Steam, and so it gave me that error message. Other than that, I think everything seems to be working now.

...odd. For future reference...the Origin client itself, or the Origin version of Spore?

I think it was the Origin version of Spore.
Also, I found the actual source of it. I'm thinking it also had something to do with the mods being installed in a certain order.
Apparently installing the color picker before installing the other mods first will cause it to display the message as well.

hi, could someone make a step-by-step tutorial on how to use this api, from start to end?

Same here, excluding the fact that this doesn't always happen. I only have BetterCells and UCP installed.
I have the ModAPI installed in Spore's root folder (D:\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Spore\), could that contribute towards it?
I don't have Origin installed, so it can't be a conflict between the Origin version of Spore and the Steam version of Spore.

It certainly could. Keep the ModAPI Launcher away from the game files.

The update seems to have fixed my issue. Thanks!

My problem is that it tells me to start the game whit sporemodapi even if i do.
Fixed it by deinstall all mods install them one by one whit the easyinstaller.

Just released an update which has apparently resolved this issue for some users. Try it now.

I fixed it. it was because i was to lazy to install all mods again with the easy installer and just copied them from my CD Spore files to the Origins Spore data.

That's...not a solution. That doesn't even address the same problem. Besides, you'll still need the ModAPI Launcher in a working state in order to use some mods, including the most recent public build of Dark Injection.

Hi guys. I have problem with Mod API. When I launch it, appears a message with that: "currentSporebinPath: (my path to SporebinEP1). ExecutablePath: (my path to SporeApp.exe in the SporebinEP1 folder)". After i click "OK" opens alert with that: "Could not execute Spore GA. Process thread could not be resumed.". And just after that alert the game opens, but after 5 seconds of waiting it gives me the alert "Spore GA is not responding." HELP PLS.

Does this issue occur consistently, or was it a one-off?

It`s appearing every time i try to launch Spore with the Mod API.

...oh...well then. Hmm...

What version of Windows are you using?
Do you have any kind of antivirus software?
