Spore crashing at startup, can't find graphics cache

Question

Trying to run spore on my Mac mini from the disc that I got in 2008. When I launch it, it automatically quits and gives me this error:

Termination Signal: Illegal instruction: 4
Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 0x4
Terminating Process: exc handler [5003]

Application Specific Information:
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[__NSArray0 objectAtIndex:]: index 0 beyond bounds for empty NSArray'

All of the solution I've seen on here say to delete the graphics cache, but the only trace of the software on my computer is the spore folder and icon in applications.

Any ideas?

Hi&nbsp;@ethanalgazi&nbsp;

The physical version of Spore often causes problems on Mac, you need a digital version via Origin.
The Spore folder are located &gt; /Library/Preferences/SPORE Preferences/p_drive/User/Application Data/Spore/Preferences/Games
This only visible , if the game launch successfully
