Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
I love this but, I don't want the replacements for outfit models as it ruins a lot of other people's creations that were meant to have the vanilla parts. Is there a solution to this?
Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
What are you talking about? No parts are replaced. I specifically designed the installer to detect and correct zArenas packages that were incorrectly-installed , as that would result in vanilla parts' appearances being affected, which I've specifically been trying to prevent by providing duplicates featuring the altered models and textures instead.ThatDemonDavid wrote:I love this but, I don't want the replacements for outfit models as it ruins a lot of other people's creations that were meant to have the vanilla parts.

EDIT: ...show me both of your Data folders.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
After hunting down a mirror of Unofficial Patch 7 and inspecting its files, I've determined that it is the cause of the problem. It tried to facilitate DI, and instead shot it in the foot. So just uninstall that and you'll be good to go.ThatDemonDavid wrote:http://imgur.com/a/lkZu6

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Hi!
I have a problem with Origin version of spore. I have Spore, C and C and GA on Origin. I installed them in the same order as I listed them in my previous sentence. Tried to use the patch for GA and it cant find my Spore installation so I installed Dark Injection using Easy installer as instructed on the main page. Now When I launch the game some parts in creature editor are just white boxes and some pages are just blank. Without any parts on them. And it crashed once after saving creature and exiting the editor. I havent had time to test it further, but I think that it does not work as it supposed to work. Can anyone help me. How I should install DI on Spore from Origin and why cant I patch it. It should be with the latest update from Origin, because I just installed it.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
I couldnt do a screenshot for some reason so I took a photo. Those white squares, if I put my mouse cursor over them, then in most cases there is an icon and a part behind them, but some of the parts are just grey shapes behind the white square. Some pages are just empty or half empty where some parts or skills are in the middle of the page. Had some crashes while in creature editor. When I was taking pictures in creature editor most of the UI froze. I could only change part categories and drag parts on my creature, but couldnt change part pages. Also could not exit, save, change name nor press any other button on the UI.
I should note again that I did as instructed on mod main page, but did not install GA patch which I downloaded also from the link on the main page. When I tried to install the patch it said something like that: " To update Spore you need to install Spore" and thats it. But Spore and everything else was definitely installed. Dot know what I did wrong except that I couldnt patch the game.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Everything looks normal to me, bar your screenshot capture issue.
And the instructions say to install Patch 5.1 if not on Patch 1.7, and given that you received that error, I suspect you have 1.7, so idk why you were trying to install 5.1, but...well...don't.

Will the Darkspore Creature Converter finally get an update eventually?
Also, did you try extracting CompiledMaterials.package and CompiledAnimData.package yet?

We're not going to update it just so we can say it's been updated. If there's a reason for which it should be updated though, I'm all ears.fungus3 wrote:Will the Darkspore Creature Converter finally get an update eventually?
Yes, though I suppose I should probably take another look, as I've learned a fair bit since then (and also the ModAPI exists .-. ).fungus3 wrote:Also, did you try extracting CompiledMaterials.package and CompiledAnimData.package yet?

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Yes, of course. Many creatures that are converted crash the game when dragged into the game window, and some don't even convert at all!rob55rod wrote:We're not going to update it just so we can say it's been updated.

And what about extracting all the audio from Darkspore's files?
Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Right...in that case, I'll talk to Emd about it and we'll see what happens from there.fungus3 wrote:Yes, of course.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Weren't you also going to extract the audio files from Darkspore, as well? I tried extracting some, but many of them don't even work!rob55rod wrote:Relevance?fungus3 wrote:And what about extracting all the audio from Darkspore's files?
Here are the EALayer files, as well.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Yes, and if you'd paid more attention to 2.1.6, you'd see the evidence of our partial success in doing so. But no, you were too busy yelling at me to even notice.fungus3 wrote:Weren't you also going to extract the audio files from Darkspore, as well?
They all work, EALayer and FFMpeg just don't support some of them.fungus3 wrote:I tried extracting some, but many of them don't even work!
I have EALayer. And FFMpeg. As implied above.fungus3 wrote:Here are the EALayer files, as well.

Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Hey so when I exceed the complexity limit my creatures do the thing in the gif below, anything I can do to fix it?
Re: Official Dark Injection FAQ! Answers and Fixes!
Known bug. Not a DI bug, either, although DI has been known to, in certain cases, make it more likely to happen. In any case, try slightly repositioning one part and re-saving. That sometimes works for me, as it forces the game to rebuild the creature's cached model and textures.Dragonstomper wrote:Hey so when I exceed the complexity limit my creatures do the thing in the gif below, anything I can do to fix it?
