Sporemods will be back up. It was recently hacked, and the admin is making sure that it is safe when it comes back.

From what we have seen, this mod does work relatively well with GA, and therefore you just need to follow some new instructions over at Sporedum's How to install mods page for GA:

This is a separate version, which is used instead of the older versions.

All you do is remove the packages, then play spore as normal. Any saves that used tools from BS may have problems, but we did warn you in the Readme and on the official website, still they are most likely to work fine.

It would be not recommended, we will have an official press release about that soon, but it is advised that you do not have the mod installed when installing GA, and not using it until we create a GA version.

The reason why it isn't modded is that much of the code is still hardcoded and has not be unscrambled. As to why the game is the way it is? I don't know, i just try and make it more in-depth and more enjoyable.

You download the mod and you get a .ZIP file. Right click on it and click "extract". Extract it somewhere, then look inside the folder. Inside you'll find a ReadMe.txt which will have all the instructions you need.

Make sure you unzip the mod first, you want to place the package files into the data folder.

I'd advise going to the sporum, and posting in the help section, making sure to include lots of details about your problem and your computer.

EA/Maxis are fine with mods being out here. People may loose EA support if they mod.

That shouldn't happen... Do you have any other mods running at the same time?

Rings are just proof of concept artifacts, and the tactical nuke... its cool.

Be careful with this new update as, if you get new artifacts it may crash your game if you remove BetterSpore.

We are currently working from the ground up on the next version.

It is a very powerful weapon. It doesn't blow a planet up, but who needs to when you can conquer it?
