Installed Mods:
SPORE ModAPI,
Dark Injection current verision
ForceSave
Better Spore
It worked for once for a new game, then , after next launch:
I have 2 problems now with modded SPORE
1. SPORE immediately Freezes, if trying to start any New Game.
whole PC system need to be restarted. (by the way saved games still ran, with the modded content)
Is there any known treatment to fix this?
BetterSpore is an ancient mod which has been broken since the release of the Galactic Adventures expansion pack, back in 2009. Wouldn't surprise me one bit if it was the cause of this problem...
Unfortunately, by running Spore with it installed, you may have created a save file dependency, which may require a Galaxy reset to correct. Before you do anything about this...did you backup your save data before messing with all of this, by any chance? And if not, do you know
how to do so?

How can I reinstall, without loisng all the already added mod config?
Of course would like to try avoiding clean reinstall.
Okay...do you have any kind of antivirus installed? If so, that may well explain the sudden disappearance of the launcher. Add and exclusion to your antivirus for the folder to which you installed the Spore ModAPI Launcher Kit.
After that, to recover the Spore ModAPI Launcher, use the Spore ModAPI Launcher Kit Setup Program to "update" your existing (and presumably up-to-date) Spore ModAPI launcher Kit. When providing the path to the ModAPI Launcher Kit to update, select the executable for the Spore ModAPI Easy Installer or Spore ModAPI Easy Uninstaller.[/quote]
Thanks for the reply!
I concentrated on 2.
Added the location to exception list in Antivirus
Added the Installer executable to exception list in Antivirus
Ran the Installer with the original folder ,and installer executable selected.
icons did not appeared, and installer seemed not running till end of process.
removed the existing 2 icon from desktop, for installer and uninstaller
reran installer
all icon appeared correctly, and installer success fully finished.
Then worked on 1.
Removed Better Spore packages manually from the data folder.
And started the Modapi Launcher...
Which got stuck in the famous R6034 error , with the Access denied message at line 192.
So one step closer.
But as I read, for this error you don't yet have a remedy, do You?
Thanks and regards,
