You'll need to downgrade to the March 2017 version.

To downgrade Steam Spore to March2017, do the following:
Press Win + R, and type in steam://open/console/ to open Steam's console.
From there, type download_depot 24720 24721 7407510787032991484 into the console to prompt Steam to download the old version.
When it's installed, it will not be in the default location but instead in Steam/Steamapps/Content/, and you can safely copy over the EXE file
Hello there! I'm a random guy who sometimes does *slightly* smart stuff. I do a lot of random Spore shenanigans, too.
Check out my website here: http://vanillacold.github.io/

Feel free to build off my mods, but please don't add them to modpacks.

when i try to launch Dark Injection, this popup appears. It launched fine yesterday, so why is it having problems now?

UPDATE: it will only let me launch it when i run the launcher as administrator, but doing this isnt recommended usually? is there another way to launch it without doing that?

Hello! I have this problem: when I launch the Spore game via the ModAPl
launcher, the game does not start. After installing the mod, apple started
normally at first, and then after a while it does not start the game. I
have already restarted ModAPl 2-3 times, but the problem remains the same:
first it works, and then it doesn't. Without the Internet, it starts the
game, but I can't play because it asks for the Internet. Is it possible to
solve this problem? I will be grateful for your help, as I get tired of
endlessly restarting ModAPl.

NEW: Now I tried to restart the ModAPl again and now does not want to start at all, I do not know what the problem is (((

I play spore, first played it back in 2009 or 2010 I can't remember the exact year, that was an eternity ago.
I still play it, as should you. I even play it modded because why not. Keep modding, and keep playing.

My SporeAPI Launcher broke too. I tried fix listed above, it didn't help.
It tells me to install dif version, then it just thinks the game is open when it isn't.
I use Steam version.

I've attempted this fix but I'm not sure which EXE file needs to be copied over to where? Do I need to install ModAPI again?

Edit: I've figured out that, for some reason, every time I use that command Steam downloads DataEP1 instead of SporebinEP1 which is why I can't find the EXE file. How do I download SporebinEP1?
