Thanks for the tip - I'll do that.

That fixed it, thank you! Now I'm just sad to have lost the 56K creatures I had downloaded.

Thanks, Kaliena. I will try this when I get home tonight.

That's right, they are not in my in game Sporepedia, but they are still in my online Sporepedia. Trying to add them manually via placing them in the creatures folder or through dropping the png in the creators does not work.

So, I have been away from Spore for a while, but started to play again in the last month. The last time I had played, I had lost a bunch of my creations. It wasn't a big deal, I figured I would manually download them into my game. I tried saving the png's in the creatures folder, but that didn't work. So, I tried dragging each one into the creator. I have tried using different creators for the different creations, but most of them will not load. I get a red message at the top of the creator that says something like, "Creation Could Not Be Loaded." This makes me very sad - I'd like to play with my old creations, too. Any ideas?

Thank you, Cactus! It made me so sad...there were such great ones in it. *sigh* Thanks for the notification.

I went to add a creature to my Unique Creatures Discovered just now and noticed...all the creatures, except 1, are gone. I highly doubt they all got deleted by the creators...I also found this to be true of a couple other of my sporecasts. Help? Anyone?

I have two entries - for now:

1.Kitty Mama

2.Hiro 2 (based off my RL kitty)

Kaliena, thank you soo much! I wouldn't have ever thought to do that...yah, it worked and now it seems to be running fine. Horray! Now I must run off to play with my fantastic new graphics.

Thank you ever so much!

edit * And, yes, I did install it to the default directory.

I have been searching the forums for the last hour and have not found anything to really be of help. I think I must be retarded.

Um, I am running WinXP, just installed a 9800 GT graphics card with the latest drivers (180.4

. I also installed C&C, but did not want to play till I got my new card. So, I try to open Spore and it just goes to a black screen with a plain white cursor. Not the blue and white Spore cursor. I have to CTL+ALT+DEL to get out of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! I'm adding it right now.

It's so cute!

Thanks, Cactus, please do! The Sporepedia and site are just such a huge part of the game that any and all improvements here are greatly appreciated.

Aww! That's so cute! To upload your cells to the sporepedia, you actually have to go into your game 'pedia and share them. You can actually only share the very last cell (for whatever reason). I would love to see the ability to share cells for cell stage game play. Hopefully one day!

Then just change the description by one letter or add a smiley face and save it. It will then grab your new additions from the website. You have to manually do this each time you want it to update.

OMG...

This is soo much easier than adding then deleting a creation...

Yay! Congratulations to all the new entries.

BTW, Dr, as of today, the Sporecasts can now be edited from the 'pedia (I recall you saying there were a few things that needed to be removed).
