keeps telling me to open from mod launcher even when i already opened it from the mod launch in the files

Unread post by SapphicSilky »

subject is self-explanatory.
Whenever I open it from the mod launcher in the files like i'm supposed to, I still keep getting a message saying that I should close the game and re-open it in the mod file (even though I already did)
and it says that if i already did that, then I should seek support from this site, which I'm doing right now.
I tried looking for other subjects like this, but I've found nothing.
Thanks in advance.

...what else does it say before that?

Also where did you install Spore from? Steam? GOG? Origin? Disk?

Before that, it's just the usual. Just a login/register screen for Spore pops up first, then when I click off it, that's when it sends me that message, and i'm forced to just quit the game.

I meant before the game actually opens. Y'know, any error messages or...anything...?

Zilch. There are no error messages, or any message, showing up before actually opening the game.

...oh, this again.


Backup your creations and save data, migrate your game keys to Origin, uninstall Steam Spore, and install Origin Spore in its place. I hate recommending this as a """""solution""""", but unfortunately, it's the best I have to offer at this point in time...
