Crash on entering cell edit mode

When I enter cell edit mode the game crashes without any error message. I have tried to contact EA Help but they couldn't help. There are no mods on the game, I tried to re-install the game, update the video driver, install the latest VC Redistributables, disabling antivirus - no effect. Here are the detailed steps to reproduce the issue:

1) I click on Cell Creator button

2) I see an animation

3) I see a black screen with a loading indicator

4) I see a black screen for around 2 seconds

5) Game just exits with no error screen

  • I found that the game makes memory dump and stores the exception information, which I attach here. The highlights are:

    [Exception info]
    type: ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x00000000
    address: 0x00ea3775 "G:\steam\steamapps\common\Spore\SporeBin\SporeApp.exe":0x0001:0x00232775

    [Call stack]
    Callstack not available

    [Instruction data]
    00ea36f5 => DLL not found, no disassembly.
