Re: Spore Cannot open creature stage

@Zariaomy game had problems with crashing and sometimes wouldnt start up, i made a new folder on my desktop called spore (you can name it whatever) make sure you install it into that folder or else spore files and everything will be all over your desktop and it will be a mess and just reinstalled spore to that and it stopped crashing. or you could right click spore.exe in the spore folder click properties then go to compatability then click windows vista or xp.

    yes ive tried new saves and i bought the galactic expansion bc i heard that helped fix it, but i ended up refunding it because im not spending 40 dollars on a game that only works for the intro

    @Zariao these feel like really generic & obvious fixes if i'm honest.. done both too and they didn't help either

    also it's not really a crashing issue for me i can go to the creature creator and all but i just cant play the game after the cell stage. it gets stuck on loading screen (not actually loading because i hear the sounds of the game and my creature and can seemingly press keys that make a sound but visually im on the screen, plus the loading cursor animation goes away) like i said then crashes after several minutes. it seems like a graphical issue but like i said i have a fine computer and graphics card and ive tried updating it and such already my decently new computer should be able to run a game from 2008
