The only parts that i can use in the mod are teh Robotic parts, the other simply don't appear
Do you have Galactic Adventures? Is it fully patched to version 1.5.1? Where did you install the mod to? If you installed the DI 9.r open beta, which components did you install?
Fully patched, all expansions packs, Steamapps/Common/Spore/data

also, using the "Stable" version.
That would do it. If you have Galactic Adventures (which you evidently do), you should be installing to "/SteamApps/common/Spore/DataEP1".

Well, thanks!
I don't understand why some mods only work on "DataEp1" and other only on "Data", maybe because the ones on Data are compatible with both Spore and GA and DataEp1 only with GA

No, all mods should go in DataEP1 unless they are supposed to be partially overridden by the Core Game packages. It's alphabetical through DataEP1, then alphabetical through Data. If a mod is supposed to go in Data, the mod's author will say so, in the thread and/or an included readme. If not specified, assume DataEP1. But always read the instructions :lol:

Well...long story short: Mods don't work on Steam Spore. They work on any other version of the game (Origin or Disk).

Uninstall the whole thing, reinstall ONLY Core Spore from Origin, launch Core Spore, then once that finishes opening, close it and reinstall all patches, DLC, mods, etc.

I'm really sorry for being so annoying, but now, it crashes(Core Spore) on startup

Hmm...try running it as an administrator. If that fails, try Windows Vista and/or XP compatibility mode. Just don't install any patches until Core Spore is up and running without them.

Oh.

That might actually be part of the issue. Try uninstalling it through Origin. If that fails (or isn't available), try going to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Spore\Support" and running "SPORE(TM)_uninst.exe".

Wait what??

Okay, that's definitely a problem...can you please post screenshots of everything in the Sporebin and Data folders, in details view (so I can see the file sizes and such)

No need to do that anymore, i had a backup of my Spore before uninstalling it, after moving the files to the actual Spore, it worked

I Think that Origin failed to intall all the files
