I completely forgot about the Config file settings for bypassing validation, when adding additional parts to the game's Editors and I've edited the download accordingly.
I'll be looking into fixing this next...
Disabling validation is not ideal, since you can save Creatures accidentally with no name, then that Creature is no longer in your Sporepedia when you restart the game.
So I've a new package for the additional Grox, Cell and Smoother parts for the Creature editor validation and also added everything else for outfit parts for the Genetic Modifier also. It'll need a few Archetype playthroughs before releasing...
