MAJOR Graphical issue

Pc355355 · 16-10-2009, 08:51 PM

Hi, I'm new to these forums (made the account a while ago) and I just started to play Spore again.

Well, I would have done, but when I tried to load up my game the font became block-like text and the galaxy became pretty much black and the bits that you could see were also blocky.

Any ideas?

Welcome to the forums, Pc

Woah, that is a problem o__O I have two suggestions;

1. Click the little Spore icon at the bottom left corner of the screen, and go to "Settings". Change the settings around, preferably on Medium or High. Anything that'll get your graphics working. If they're already on med/high, try low.

2. I doubt this'll work, but it is worth a try. Hold Ctrl+lalalala+C to bring up a cheat box. Type in this: "blocksmode". I believe that is the command.

If neither of these work, either reinstall Spore, or try to update your graphics.

I hope this helps you!

EDIT: To EA - Why on Earth is "but it is" ... "it is" being one word, censored?
