Spore Patch 5 - Page 3

TheMrZ · 02-09-2009, 10:15 PM

Depends how up to date the patch is (i.e. are you sue it downloaded Patch 5.1), and your computer's specs.

It's quite possible that, despite being within the minimum specifications, your computer is simply not up to the job. What graphics settings are you running it on? These may be consuming all your RAM and causing a crash (As Spore is very RAM consuming, having to hold a lot of creations in memory)

this sounds too good to be true..surely it'll give me a "REALLY_BAD_DATA" error!

Ill say EXTREMLY_BAD_DATA if its this good! Ha ha 'cause space stage is too laggy to play for me!

Has the patch fixed the BAD_DATA problem for anyone? Because i'm still having problems with it and im getting really annoyed at having no idea what planet im supposed to do a mission on.

P.S. I know theres a fix but i expect that EA are competent enough to fix such a big mistake (i hope 0.o)

The latest patch version has resolved all my issues. EA has restored my faith in them (well reset back to post copyright protection nonesense)

Mac Version of patch 5 seems to be out, coz it killed my copy of Spore - won't load or anything. Tried resetting permissions. Nada.

Hey guys!

I don't know if this is the right area

, but I'm having LOADS of problems after Patch 5 and GA YES IT'S VERIFIED

:

Spore crashes at random

I can't login, I'm using my own copy of Spore and Spore GA, so I log in as my friend, eclissi008

Half of my creations don't show up

THIS IS NOT LIKE OTHERS; EARLY CREATURES INCLUDED(Don't show, so I cut&paste to desktop and back and they show up locked)

All creations have the "BANNED" sign, even ones I didn't ban, play and the ones as well that I NEVER SHARED!!!

All creations including non-locked say I need core spore whether I use Actual spore or GA lalala???

Whatever quality, some sounds just don't play (sometimes in the options, I adjust Master or Sound Volume and it won't play that Wahhh music thingy when I click a slider)

MAN THIS IS FRUSTRATING!!!

I really need a solution, has anyone ever had a problem THIS bad?

pleeeaze heelpp mee!

PS: Just like offering gifts/sporebucks: "Yes please! Thanks in advance."

Patch didn't want to download when running. Fixed after running as admin.
Then I got the BAD_DATA error - Fixed that with '-locale:en-us'

Works fine.
