b) Is your game patched to the latest version?
c) Do you have Galactic Adventures?
d) If so, is it also patched to the latest version?

When I drag the creature it moves,
But in a stuttering motion,
Like it'll move on inch then stutter.
It doesn't hover whatsoever.
Could you please provide a video? (DO NOT USE A VIDEO CAMERA)

Okay, that is really weird. If you're using a battery-powered Keyboard, try replacing the batteries. Try running Spore as an Administrator, and as Not An Administrator. I have no idea what the problem is, so I'm just throwing out anything and everything I can, in the hopes that something might work. Are you using the Arenas_RDX9.package and Arenas_Textures.package files from Davoonline? They are known to cause problems, the ones from Darkspore itself work better, I can upload them if you don't have Darkspore.

I'm hoping it won't come to this, but if all else fails, you could try reinstalling the game...

...but not yet, there's still plenty more stuff to try.

Also, allow me to remind you that no part of Dark Injection could cause this to happen.

My keyboard is plugged in, it's a cheap E-machines keyboard,
And I don't have Darkspore, I wish I did but i don't, but yeah I'm using the Arenas stuff from the core-site,

And I don't want to reinstall the game yet,
So let's see what we can do before we restort to that.

Can you type something like wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss dddddddddddddddddddddddddd by holding down the W, A, S, or D keys? I don't need to see it, but if not, then your keyboard is the problem. If you can, just remember: You can use WASD or the Arrow Keys to move. Do other actions that require you to hold down the keys behave similarly to this one? Do animations play correctly when you aren't trying to move with WASD?
Here's the files taken directly from Darkspore (But don't install them yet): Arenas_RDX9.package and Arenas_Textures.package

Pressing WASD does nothing at all,
Only by dragging the mouse as I demonstrated moves the creature

And alright I'll install them when you give me the go.

And when I drag the creature, it BARELY moves,
My keyboard works fine with other games,
But pressing the arrow keys/WASD in spore does nothing at all.
Clicking on the icons (like dancing or being cute) also does nothing And the creature just twitches slightly. Implying a missing or broken animation.

If the animations were missing, then you'd get what you see in that video I posted. Clearly that isn't it, seeing as that the animation sort of begins to play, and the idle animation works. I really have no idea why this could happen, all I know is that nothing in Dark Injection could do this...

...unless your copy of it was somehow corrupted. I'm tempted to tell you to download the Arenas_RDX9 and Arenas_Textures files I linked to above, install them instead of the ones from Davo's page, and re-download Dark Injection. Let me know if that fixes it.

Alright I'll try that and get back to you.

And how would I redownload dark injection? You mean the "2013_DI_NC.package"?

Yes, that. Remove the old one from your Data folder and add the new one in.

nope, it still doesn't work,
i replaced the files with the new files you provided and i downloaded a clean version of the mod and i even put the files from the Spore CD i have into the empty spore data folder, still nothing, not a single thing has changed.

im afraid if i reinstall i'll lose all my progress on the space stage im on, i got really really far into it, nearly all the badges :/ so that's why im hesitant to reinstall.

You won't, provided you say "No" to "Do you want to remove all content generated by this application?" While uninstalling (not exact text, but you get the idea), and make backups of everything in

Code: Select all

C:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/SPORE
and

Code: Select all

C:/users/USERNAME/Documents/My Spore Creations
(where USERNAME is your user name)
(Those are the default paths for Windows 8 and 8.1, the same probably goes for 7, maybe Vista, XP is similar but not identical)

-sighs- that seems like my only option,
As long as I keep where I am in the Space stage I have no complaints, I'll see about unistalling it later today I suppose.

Uninstall Order:
1. Galactic Adventures
2. Spore
3. C&C

Make sure that's how you're doing it. If that is, then IDK what's going on.

I uninstalled and reinstalled galactic adventures with no luck, I tried the order you mentioned but it wouldn't uninstall,

When I was in galactic adventures's create an adventure I noticed my character walks normal, with WASD and mouse,
But no animation plays when he Glides (wings don't flap) and he can't attack anything,the icons are there but after clicking on it, nothing happens.
(E.g click energy slash and no damage is inflicted/animation plays)
