So im stuck with the beginning gear, meaning i dont get gear with better stats when i conquer them. The ones in second row in the attached pictures, ware there from the begining, witch shouldnt be. If im not mistaken it should be more the 2 rows of clothes there.
Pls help.
Known bug, investigation ongoing. Disabling the new categories in the outfitter may help, if it's not too late. I'm not sure tbh...

The same way you switched to the Full Darkspore GUI, just use the DI Configurator. And yes, you can re-enable them later.

Hi Rob! I was trying to search through this thread on how to get the Steam GA to work, though rarely found an answer.

I currently have GA 3.1.0.22 installed as well as Spore 1.3.0.22 and I did read that a patch for 5.1+ is required. I used the Spore ModAPI Easy Installer (it said it even updated to the current version) to install DI. However, GA no longer boots up properly and now gives me exception errors that I can open in notepad, and a notable exception:

[Application info]
Language: C++
Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ compiler, version 1500
App path: E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Spore\SporeBin\SporeApp.exe
App version: 1.3.0.22

[Exception info]
date: 04-02-20
time: 23.13.56
type: ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x000010fc
address: 0x01005704 "E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Spore\SporeBin\SporeApp.exe":0x0001:0x00874704

Is this exception linked to the lack of the patch, or is it trouble with steam? Spore is unaffected by this, and only GA won't open and run.

Hello! I would like to know if Dark Injection is compatible with Titanspore. Is it?

You're using the Steam version of Spore. Don't.

When I had opened the game--with the mod installed--it worked alright (save for a few crashes, but they weren't that bothersome as I save frequently). However, I have purchased the Creepy and Cute pack, but noticed the parts were not in the creator, just the limbs.

I uninstalled then reinstalled the pack, but now the game does not launch with the mod when using the modAPI launcher to play said game.

How do I work my way around this? First I didn't have the C&C parts, and now the game does not launch with the mod (I'm really dumb with computers so I apologize in advance if this gets difficult :' ) ).

Uninstall DI, then reinstall it. Also make sure you're using the Spore ModAPI Launcher to play Spore.

Thank you, the mod opens just fine (thank god oof)

Yet I still do not have access to the Creepy and Cute parts despite having it already installed. How do I work around this too?

That's not a Dark Injection problem, that's a Spore problem. I don't know what the solution is.

I'm not sure if this is a core Spore issue or a mod issue, but after reinstalling the mod yesterday, certain sounds are absent (i.e tribe members are silent) and in tribal stage I cannot ally other tribes (they stand there and don't give requests of the instruments).

I tried reinstalling the mod again, but nothing has changed. I hope I can find a way around this for I cannot find anything on this online oof

Um...do you have any other mods installed? And have you checked your audio settings?

Hm...does the problem persist if you turn off all of Dark Injection's features?

Do you mean uninstalling the mod? If so I have tried that and it hasn't changed.

Would uninstalling the game itself work?

So it's the name I click when I turn on my computer? That must be my admin account then. Now that I know, what do I do now?

Hi! My first time on here. Been playing Spore forever. So a few days ago I installed Spore (and Spore Galactic Adventures) (from Origin). This is a new hard drive if it helps so never been installed on it before. I downloaded Dark Injector and the Spore API. Installed DI no problem. But in game nothings seems to have changed like in the examples it gives you during installation. Did I do something wrong?

On a side note, does the complexity part of the mod let you use UFOs (for example) that are over the complexity limit? I know back then you couldn't. Thanks
