When I got to the creature creator, the tools pop up for a split second, then the screen goes black. I've gone over the mod steps over and over again, but still nothing. Before I go and uninstall Spore, then reinstall that, C&C, and GA, is there anything you can suggest? I really hate reinstalling games...
Sorry, but I don't know what the matter could be, so I have no suggestion on it

I don't have that problem. the only thing I can think of is that you aren't giving it enough time. I noticed that when I enter the creature creator it shows a black screen for quite a bit longer than without the mod before actually entering it. (by quite a bit longer, I mean up to a minute depending on how my computer is doing) if it's longer than that, I don't know what to tell you.

im going to assume these black screens are related to pc speeds. when i load the mod, the game freezes for about 2 secs as all the props appear in the distant background.
dark injection may be the largest mod for spore ever created. everytime you open the editor, you are loading 324mb of data on top of the normal game. it may take some time on laggy low spec pcs.
if one person say it takes almost a minute, then it very well take some time. me, tho, 2 secs.

Same here, Not 2 secs, but a few ones, and only at the beggining. Once Intro is playing everything is loaded in the game.
The amount of info is more if you have the two arenas packages (around 500MB) and also these are compressed files, so the real amount of info to read is about the double (or more)

Hello everyone,

just registered to ask a few questions:

I just installed this mod but i'm having some troubles with my Sporepedia. The entire screen is white, that only changes when i click my own creations page where the background "galaxy" is shown, framework is still white. Seems to be textureless. This really sucks and removing the mod files did not help. in fact the Spore logo at startup is also white now.

Some of the buttons on the creatures test mode are also invisible and the frame around it also seems to be bugging.
Not a very big deal, im used to mods where stuff like that happends, but this time i thought id mention it, dont know if anyone else has this issue...

Another thing, when i have this mod installed all options for space captain outfitter and adventures are gone, as if im stuck in Core spore, which im not because i startup with GA.

If this was allready mentioned im sorry but i hope you understand i dont want to waste reading through 40+ pages to find this... IF this is an unfortunate side effect of the mod that sorry for this.

Final question, In case i want to, how do i remove the mod or is that impossible?

Thnx in advance,

Hope to fix these problems soon. i really like the parts!

The only thing I can think of is if you accidently removed one of the packages needed by the game. if you list what .package files you have in your data folder, we can tell you if one of them is missing or not. either way you may need to reinstall the game to fix it but post what you have and someone may have a better option

Please specify what is causing this trouble to you.
Any part? A certain action?
Explain it better.

Hello there.
This has to be something you have done in your game.
Have you tried opening the core spore then the GA?
I know that to unlock again certain creatures you have to do this (commented recently by Davo and darkhydra, page 47)

Also Snaid has a point about it.

Thanks for your replies,

Core Spore works just fine, no problem.

GA DATA folder:

Config folder
2011_DarkInjection_v.6.0.1
Arenas_RDX9
Arenas_Textures
EP1_PatchData
Spore_EP1_Content_01
Spore_EP1_Content_02
Spore_EP1_Data
Spore_EP1_Locale_01
Spore_EP1_Locale_02

I did not change anything except adding the first 3 files. No other changes were made as far as im aware.
Reinstalling is rather my final solution because i reinstalled it so many time if i got 1 euro for all the times i did it i'd buy EA and make them fix this :P

EDIT:
I got the game through Origin. Dont know if it matters.
And on a sidenote - When in creature stage all normal icons on the minimap (nests/friends/home and extinct) are white or red. Also a missing texture i think. I could try posting screenshots if it helps..?

The only difference with mine is that I have the arenas packages in the Spore Data folder (to play with original textures on parts) and I don´t have a Locale_02 package.
I´m european (spanish) and I have spore and GA original dvds.

Have you any other thing installed on the spore folder (I mean the core spore data folder)?

I´m afraid that you have to install it again. Yeah, sucks, but it´s your better option to be sure that everything it´s on its place.

Dark Injection 6 adds new pages for skin paints (flora and cell skin paints). That´s what she used.

The mod works for core spore... almost.
The "new" textures don´t work fine and the ForceSave (included in the mod) is not working at all.
I haven´t test the last add-ons for the mod, but in the beggining I was trying to make it work for core spore.

this mod is still not working for me, i gave up on it cuz i tried everything. actually nothing to try cuz i did everything i m supposed to do. i also have GA and botparts up to patch 6, so the only conclusion is that this mod maybe really doesnt work with patch 6.01. when i enter the creature creator, it s still a black screen and i cant wait any more than 2 minutes. i dont have a low end pc, it may be less but defo not low end. triple core phenom and a hd5770 and a decent psu, all in all a pc that starts up at 35°C, not very bad right. btw sometimes i do see parts of the background animation when i go in certain editors (it depends where i go into the editor, if it s thru an outfitter the screen is black. so weird. anywho, so didnt work for me but it looks like it would have been neat.

I've got no more ideas. I can tell you it works with the bots parts patch since I have that installed and it works for me, so that's not it.

just having patch 1.6 is not enough. that patch does not give you what 1.5 gives you. so make sure to get it and reinstall 1.6 to be safe
