Nice Collada support, FINALLY.. Asymmetry is great too.
I figured if they decided to go with Collada that I'd turn the mod I was working on into a stand alone game- assuming that is it wouldn't be too much work to get it going.
Careful. EA retain the rights to your work and have only relaxed restrictions on its use for (IIRC) "Spore products or Spore fansites".
that picture is not from spore

You're supposed to include an EA copyright notice if you add anything you create to a website too, but stuff that! ;-)
good job !
the Asymetry is just awesome there was a glitch to get asymetry but it is kinda hard to perform it so this is perfect !
I downloaded it but I still can't use Assymetry
Asymmetry I mean, HELP!
If i remember correctly you hold or press A key when you move or add a part to get asymmetry to work but i heard the it doesn't work if you got a pirated version of the game not sure this is true or not because i don't got a pirated version.
I'm thinking if this is so EA has finally found a way to at least slow the pirates down which is good :)
No, thats not good since EA are full of themselves with this game, i played it i enjoyed it but they think they are gods, being able to limit installs...if pirates didnt exist most games would have never been cracked, although if pirates didnt exist then we wouldnt have DRM, but thats beside the point
Am downloading it!
Coming next : Fake Zeratul!
What is shown in the picture is a hand-made model of a creature, and not something you'd see in Spore. How do I know this, because of Art classes thats how, any artist with a single day of class would be able to tell the difference between one work of art and a fake. Nice try EA, but I've never skipped a day of school in my life.
ASSYMETRY DONT WORK ONJ PIRATED VERSION AW ****
Asymmetry notes are broken.
can anyone confirm how to use it?
