Spore ModAPI
Re: Spore ModAPI
Hi! Happy to see this thread still gets answers, so hopefully I can get one now. I run the Installer kit and have the files in front of me, but when I click "edit" to see where exactly the launcher is from the desktop icon, it just shows where the temporary files are, or what I'm assuming are the temporary files made by the installer. When I open the game, it says "ModAPI Not Found, so maybe I'm not opening the right launcher?
EDIT: I have the Origin versions of Spore, GA, and C&C packs. Had the afterthought of adding that info just now.
EDIT 2: Here's the image. Might help.

Re: Spore ModAPI
Alright, I figured out what was causing the issue, it turns out I hadn't patched GA, had to do a clean re-install but it works just fine now so guess that is my advice if someone has issues, make sure you Patch both spore and GA before using the modapi
Re: Spore ModAPI
Hello.
I'm having problems getting the Spore ModAPI Launcher to work.
Whenever I try to run the Launcher, I get a series of errors, which I have attached to this post. Also, Spore GA fails to run via the Spore ModAPI Launcher.
My installed mods are CamBen Color Pack v3, The Smoother v2, Enhanced Color Picker, and Force Save. I would also like to install Pandora's Toolbox and the latest version of Dark Injections. However, I do not think any of these mods are causing the problem, as the Launcher fails to launch Spore GA even when I do not have any mods installed.
Can anyone please help me? I would like to play with more mods.
Edit 1: I installed and play Spore, Spore C/C, and Spore GA via physical discs. Also, I use a portable USB DVD ROM Drive to play Spore GA on my laptop, as my laptop does not have a built-in DVD ROM drive.

Alright...are you seeing any error messages? And if so, can you please provide screenshots of them?GabrieleTheMan wrote:I have the same problem of opening and not letting me enter!
Also, can both of you please tell me where you bought and installed Spore from? (e.g. Origin, Steam, GOG, physical disks)

Re: Help
I can't really help you if you don't actually tell me what the problem is. When did this error appear? Is this a reoccurring problem, or have you only seen it once? Have you previously used the Spore ModAPI Launcher Kit, or did you just install it? Has this problem only just appeared recently, or have you always faced it?DatGuard wrote:Help with that please I wanna play

Re: Spore ModAPI
Oh, you're using Steam Spore? That would probably explain why this is happening. Fortunately, in most cases, Steam users can obtain the Origin version of Spore, free of charge, by transferring the Steam keys to Origin. Mind you, you may have to contact EA support to do this. Once you've done so, just backup your creations and save data, uninstall the Steam version of Spore, and then install the Origin version of Spore. You'll likely need to re-install your mods after doing so, mind you.GabrieleTheMan wrote:I play the game from Steam, i can't unistall the Mods and even play even if i launch from the launcher!rob55rod wrote:Alright...are you seeing any error messages?

Re: Spore ModAPI
I'm having some trouble, installing mods etcc works fine, but when I try to launch the modapi it asks for the galactic adventures disk (which is weird since I use Origin) did I install the wrong luncher somehow or is there a way to make it launch my game through origin instead of asking for a disk?
Re: Help
I've never played Spore Modded I installed it installed the mod and since the first time I launched it kept having that message over and over again not letting me into the game telling me to quit and get supportrob55rod wrote:I can't really help you if you don't actually tell me what the problem is.

Re: Help
That's a bug in GA itself, actually. I can't recall the last time I've heard of it though, nor how it was resolved...LennalthVista wrote:I'm having some trouble, installing mods etcc works fine, but when I try to launch the modapi it asks for the galactic adventures disk (which is weird since I use Origin) did I install the wrong luncher somehow or is there a way to make it launch my game through origin instead of asking for a disk?
Oh. Hmm...seeing as you're using the Steam version of the game, you may have better luck with the Origin version. Luckily, it's usually possible to transfer your Steam Spore keys to Origin (though you may have to contact EA support to do so). After that, just backup your creations and save data, uninstall Steam Spore, and then install Origin Spore in its place.DatGuard wrote:I've never played Spore Modded I installed it installed the mod and since the first time I launched it kept having that message over and over again not letting me into the game telling me to quit and get support
I'm sorry I don't have a better solution to offer at this time.

Re: Spore ModAPI
Hey i started moving my programs from my d drive to c drive and so i tried to resetup the spore mod api using the new directory but i dont see any options and i even checked to make sure the config files have been altered to reflect the change but opon loading and reslecting the location of the spore_ep1 folder i get an error "Configuration Script Failed [2000]" Could not find a needed package. "The data directory is missing or corrupt.[1004]"
and this was after i installed a fresh copy of Spore ModApi also i noticed a lot of .pdb files which confused me so idk what to do i removed all of the mods from the installer and from the spore folder itself before continuing
Edit:nvm this is actually a problem with spore itself which is just great ya know after i fix this i will start over

Re: Help
Ah I see, kind of anoying, since I was hoping to play with mods but it keeps asking that, and I tried starting it normally on origin which does work. yet when using ModAPI launcher it does ask for a disk, and looking into the ModAPI files didnt really show an option to change anything.rob55rod wrote:That's a bug in GA itself, actually.

Re: Spore ModAPI
hi all, i am having a problem with my launcher because it says the steam version im on is not supported despite me supposed to be having a gog version that i downloaded from fitgirl,i have tried to update to 1.5.1 but it just says that i need spore to update spore, i can't think of anything else to try and fix this. So if anyone knows how, will you help me please?

I presume this "Fitgirl" you speak of isn't GOG? Go buy Spore and GA. We don't support piracy. (and don't buy them on Steam if you want any of this to work)KoFF wrote:hi all, i am having a problem with my launcher because it says the steam version im on is not supported despite me supposed to be having a gog version that i downloaded from fitgirl,i have tried to update to 1.5.1 but it just says that i need spore to update spore, i can't think of anything else to try and fix this.

Is there a place where I can find the solution? since I don't really understand why people don't just make a troubleshooting thread where they can place all solutions they found. Safes a lot of trouble both for yourself and those who may get the same issue in the future, because its kind of insane that I can't point the ModAPI towards the correct loading area, since it obviously seems to think I need the dvd while I can easily load it on origin without such so this would have to be on the ModAPI side wouldn't it? because i'm quite confused right now.
Its a bit weird how I get some odd bug that nobody knows how to fix or heard about.
MODERATOR EDIT: Problem was later resolved on Discord.
