Spore Bot Parts

So its been long enough. Locking a parts pack behind a special offer alone was a bad idea as it renders the offer useless. Very few obtained it and as a result there are so few to share such creations with.

We've been strongly adhering to this game. Sticking by you guys for so long and its been a marvelous ride. So finally granting us these parts in a new patch would be a great thank you gift especially as consolation to the loss of our forum.

I leave it up to you EA on your final decision of course but these parts aren't going anywhere so you might as well throw it to the masses to lift their spirits and congratulate them on Spore's great and long run.

    the spore bot parts are (kind of) available now. i made a guide on how to get them on this forum. However I deleted it as it was kind of bad. I may make a more comprehensive guide in the future but for now I'll just use this thread and attempt to be as helpful as possible.

    The bot parts aren't illegal. However, i would advise against installing the bot parts if you already have mods installed on your game. Im not saying it won't work but there is no guarantee it will work either. If you want to try installing the bot parts with mods that's fine by me. Just know that it COULD cause harm to your game. (Also if you are worried about the bot mouths not having the sing ability, there is an easy solution. All you must do is make sure that your creature had at least one social ability, this will prevent the game from crashing.)

    I have to say this but are people allowed to get the Spore Bot Parts even if they never got the pack when the Dr Pepper Bot Part Pack promotion was still going on? (Since I never got a Spore Bot Pack part, and Idk if the adviser will give it to me since I've been wanting those parts in my life, but never got the chance to do so)

    Edit: I should also note that I don't know if it's legal or illegal to get the Bot Part Packs since I never got a single promotion code given to me for the Bot Part Pack. (When it was still going on)

    I'm also afraid if it might break my game since my game is Patch 1.07 (Especially the bot mouths that don't have a singing ability)

    I find this to be a problem, since I don't know if acquiring the bot parts before Patch 1.07 is required. (When you had it in Patch 1.06 of course)

    you would put the BP2 package in Steam/steamapps/common/Spore/Data

    or if you are using galactic adventures i believe you would put it in Steam/steamapps/common/Spore/DataEP1

    you can share them. you need to talk to an EA customer support agent to be able to share though.

    just keep in mind that if you didn't get the bot parts during the dr pepper event your creations will not be shared with others it block's you from doing it

    Edit: you can also get the stuff from here https://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/87189.page while the forum is still active and if someone read's this beyond that point an the link is dead the download is here https://beyondsims.com/2010/01/dr-peppereas-spore-1-06-patch-and-14-mech-parts-download/

     all this info is thanks to SporeMasterSlime

    What if my Spore is on Steam? Will it work if I put it in the Steam/steamapps/common/Spore/Data folder?

    Not as good as an official patch but I'd say its a fair workaround. Thanks a lot. I shall be sharing that thread around the Sporepedia.

    that would be very cool. i started playing spore in 2014 so i never even got a chance to obtain the bot parts. i have seen creations that use them and they look amazing. we can only hope EA will add them to the game for everyone someday.
