Re: How to transfer saved games in spore?

Hi,

I do not know about the file your talking about, but to transfer your Spore data you may copy the "Spore" folder located in:

C:\Users\"your user name"\AppData\Roaming\SPORE

You want to put special attention to " Pollination.package ", because is where all your (downloaded) creations and Sporepedia are located.

You may be sure to also copy your creations' folder located in:

C:\Users\"your user name"\Documents\MySporeCreations

I think I did not forget anything as for regular transferring.

(Be aware that Spore servers are not perfect and may occure something like this like myself 😢)

    Hi Carla_Lionwoman,

    Did you find a way to solve the issue you presented on the pic? Namely the planets are showing but the creatures are not. I have the same issues. I transferred the save game data as well as my creations from my old macintosh to new PCas supposed into their respective folders. Is there a way to repair the connection between the saved planets and creations that belong to them?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply. I think I found the problem. Its not enough to copy and replace just the Game folder with the saves, you have to also replace the polination file so the game knows which planets to populate with what creatures, buildngs etc. To be safe, I copied everything within the Roaming file to my new save game location. Now it works as it should.
