All my games are gone!!!

squiggums · 21-03-2009, 12:45 AM

My computer has been broken for a few months (not sure exactly how long) but i had it fixed and got it back today. When I logged in to spore I downloaded the patches then when I went onto the game all my saved games were gone! Just blank planets. All my creations were still on my account and so were my achievements but when I started a new game I was earning achievements that I already had. I don't know whats going on! Any help would be much appreciated.

That's what happens when you reinstall Spore. Your creations and achievements are kept on the Spore servers, but the game still says that you've got them again when you go through your new games - which, since it's a new installation of the game, you'll have to do.

Basically, you've reinstalled the game using the same account. All the things on the servers are saved there, but your saved games were only on your computer, so they weren't.
