Topic: NEW spore patch. Start up your game to get it.

[smjjames]

oh pfft, so we DO need the EADM to patch it up

Minor thing though as we can just remove the EADM afterwards.

[Judhudson]

May I ask what version it is?

[Miclee]

1.01?

Great news unless you are a Mac user.

They just came out with the patch for the Mac version of the Creature creator about a week ago, so i'm certainly not going to start holding my breath now.

Yeah thanks...I was trying to not think of it and pretend the Mac patch came out the day after the PC one.

*cries*

Hope the Mac patch comes soon and they'll fix the license server problem... I stil can't play, EA support does what I expected them to do (nothing) and the fix doesn't work...

* Added 70 new planet scripts with a low terraform score, especially of the "hot and high atmosphere" type

It'll be nice to see a little more variety in those T0 and T1 worlds.

The evo advantage cheat should enable us to play with our more complex creatures

I keep getting "Patching Process Failed". It's downloaded, but won't install...

Way to hose us when you stated yourself "Play it on a Mac" Maxis.


Oh well...still excited about it.

We're working on the Mac version, I swear!!!

What about those planet sculpting issues or are you still working on that? just wondering.

Also, does this work on old saves?

Try quitting the game and quitting EADM.  Then start the game.

Love you Maxis!  
Was about to go to sleep when i just noticed the patch.
I guess bedtime will be delayed for a few hours, if not canceled... again!  

[SiestaGuru]

So eeuhm.. Stupid question here, how do you actually get the patch? I loaded up spore again and the cheat didnt show up in help,  still have that ea downloader installed aswell... Is there another place to get it?

Hope you picked up on the fact that I was not really all that peeved.

Thanks for the reassurance!

Hey Lucky (caryl), say thanks to everyone for me.  That was a lightning fast patch for so much tweaked up!  Woot, playing as my premade creatures!  I knew you'd come through xD.

Oh one thing maybe to think about, the game awards time badges even if you are paused the whole time (I left it running all day by mistake and earned a badge, lol)
