Spore crashes when saving creature

[Sanras Serrak]

Hey there!

So I've encountered a little bit of an issue with my modded spore game, where there are very frequent crashes when saving creatures (specifically creatures). It seems that the more parts I add the more likely it is to crash, and when it doesn't crash when I save a creature initially, it will crash the second time, regardless of if I exited the editor or not.

As a small addition, the game frequently crashes when painting a creature... I don't know if this is related or not but I might as well mention it.

any ideas for what this might be and how to fix it? I'm running a metric ton of mods so that might be the culprit, hmu if y'all would want want the full list of mods I'm running!


Thanks!

Several questions.

1 - Where did you buy and install Spore from?
2 - What mods do you have installed?
3 - How many parts are on your creature?
(Creatures with over 255 parts (including symmetrical copies) will not paint properly, and will crash the game upon saving)

I have spore bought and installed from Origin

most of my creatures have aproximatley 60-80 parts on average

and here's my horrendously long list of my mods

Im running into the exact same issue. i dont know what to do

If you have the 4096 shiny graphics fix you may find the game may be more unstable. The 2048 version is better for this.

Thank you it actually worked, I think the game was having difficulties loading the textures, so much that even opening the paint mode made it crash. The downside is that the creatures look like they´re made of plastic with 2048

At least it works now.

I have a mod that may help you.
