So i have this issue that started TODAY. Yesterday, it went all fine. When i start Galactic Adventures through steam, it works just fine, the game stars. However if i try to start the game through the ModAPI, it won't work. Either gives me this error message: https://www.deviantart.com/stash/08rjtpoazxz , or no message at all, steam shows im in a game for 3 seconds and then nothing. Sometimes it shows me this message: https://sta.sh/02f16xg1hu0x and when i click on Steam (I only have Steam version of spore), it gives me error and after it the "application error 0000065432". I genuiely dont know what to do anymore. I tried everything. Reinstalling ModAPI multiple times, changing folders of ModAPI, reinstalling spore, reinstalling the entire steam but nothing works and i am really losing it. :cry:

Well i had a bug today that when i opened Spore ModAPI and it asked me to update so i updated, but after i updated, the Spore ModAPI told me to update again, and then it was just the same loop. It got fixed though.

i've been having a similar issue. IDK if it's the EA launcher or what, but when I launch using sporemod api it says I did not launch with sporemod api. If I uninstall the EA variant and install the steam version I instead get the error message : Application load error V:0000065432

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.

Feel free to build off my open-source mods, but please don't add them to modpacks; it could cause compatability issues.

In your SporebinEP1 folder, can you right-click SporeApp.exe, select Properties and then show the version number?
