The Mega.co.nz link works. It downloads a 4.93 GB file called SPORE.Collection.GOG.rar. Took a long time to extract though.
As someone who actually paid for the disc game, and then got screwed over by EA with their Origins version breaking the game by introducing a mess of bugs I wasn't willing to buy the same game a third time. After downloading this I was able to install it and play it. It saw my existing saved game which I was then able to play WITHOUT game crashes! I had no errors at all installing or playing, but then, I have already installed the game before. Even better is that I can still go into the Origins version and upload my creations so I get the best of both worlds with this!
Note: The Google Drive link is dead and the MegaUp.net link is fake. After turning off adblocker it creates a mountain of adds that cover everything, and asks to show notifications. If you then click to download you get a 125 MB file called "SPORE.Collection.GOG.rar.ISO" which, when looking at the contents with 7-zip is absolutely malware that would cause some serious damage if you mounted it. Be careful! Whoever posted this needs to replace the file or take that link down!
The iso file isn't the real file It's like a fake download that makes you think it's the one you're trying to download by naming the iso after the real download. To fix this you just gotta keep clicking the download now button and cancel the iso downloads until it gives you a rar file
Click "download now" button it will open up a new page so use CTRL + W to close the new tab or press the X.
Keep doing this until it doesn't open up a new page and instead sends you to the next download, keep repeating the process until you download the file you want (in this case SPORE.Collection.GOG.rar 4.9 GB)
That's basically how to download anything from this site, never viruses or scams.
I set my browser so that links from a different website I'm on will open in new tabs, for MegaUp, I have to press the download button many times until no new tabs open. also make sure to close that new tab as soon as possible.
Solution for "cannont create a folder with the characters of :/:*?"<>|." or something similar.
First, Download Locale Emulator. Second, Launch LEInstaller Third, Launch LEGUI Fourth, Make sure the language is Japanese(I don't know why), and click save Fifth, Go to your GOG spore setup file and right click it Sixth, Locale Emulator > Run in Japanese (admin) Seventh, Start Installing Eighth , Have fun!
Solution for Error 1004 Unfortunately you have to edit in the registry some things "regedit" go to: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Electronic Arts my english is not the best so i do a screenshot...may it help you through your journey
Speaking from experience as I purchased the game, afaik, online features don't exist anymore, and haven't for a long time. Even on steam, the only creatures and adventures and such that I found were made by the developers and not by players
You can use Locale emulator for windows 10 and open the installer in Japanese. Or change you computer's language setting to Japanese but you probably will have trouble to change it back.
For anyone wondering how to get mods working this is how 1: Install spore collection 2: download spore mod api 3: download your mods 4: (MOST IMPORTANT) DO NOT ACCEPT THE UPDATE 5: profit
Instálalo en inglés, luego ve a la carpeta donde se instaló, si no moviste nada debería estar en C:\GOG Games\SPORE, abre language_setup.exe, selecciona spanish, y acepta
I hope some one reads this but, when ever i open the setup it says A filename can't contain any of the following characters because the setup has a question mark. What is the solution to this?
Was it a .exe file you downloaded? Because if so it's an ad from an overlapping link. Try opening links in new tabs and you may need to tap your screen/click a few times because and get rid of pop-ups
Me: Oh, i've been itching to play SPORE for awhile, might as well give it a go! Game: (Is 5 Gigabytes in size) My laptop*: NO THANK YOU I'LL PASS. *I have an old Windows 8 laptop, on which most 3D games lag. So a 3D 5GB game is... no.
Whenever i launch the game im just stuck on a galaxy view, nothing happens no matter what i do. I found 2 http://Spore.app files, both do the same thing, also i dont get why are there steam DLL files, if this is from GOG... [unless the problem is the fact that im on windows 10...]
Dude I fixed it!!! You need to turn off your antivirus or add all your spore files to the white list before you install the game from the GOG setup. Cuz antivirus recognizes the game as a virus and it deletes some files when you install it. This worked for me.
When installing, it said "The folder name cannot include any of the following characters: /:*?"<>|." I went through all the folders in SPORE but none of them contain them. Does anyone know which folder is causing the problem?
The folder name cannot include any of the following characters: / : *? " < > l "i tried to find the folder but i cant WHICH FOLDER YOU WONT FUCKING REPLY TO ANYWONE WHO ASKED WHICH FOLDER SO FUCKING REPLY TO ME. sorry.
I LOVE DENDEE!!! I LOVE HIS LITTLE CO- I'M NOT A PEDOPHILE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAH HAHA. AHAHA ahahha ahaha .hahah ... haa haa.. aha... yea.. ..
online might be abit difficult to do on non legit copies of games... as most games that have online also have a verify system that checks if the game is real or not
all gpus have a pixel shader, difference is the version number. Most gpus from year 2002 and upwards have had atleast 2.0My old old HD6770 from 2013 has a shader 4.0 and this card is so old. If you just recently bought a gpu (5 years ago or less) you are on maybe even past 4.0) Hope this helped
Tried to setup a million times, kept getting "The folder name cannot include any of the following characters: / : *? " < > l ". I don't know which folder it's talking about. Please help!
So I installed and got the game working. On the start menu ingame I only see Spore Galactic Adventures, but there isn´t a Cute & Creepy Pack. How can I make it work?
For me, whenever I try to extract or move the files, it says that the files are broken. And whenever I try to install it with the installer, it says "missing required file". Please help me!
the game fps are based more on the CPU and graphics card not RAM for example you can have 64 gb RAM and lets say i3 and a nine years old graphics card it will run in 10 fps ;)
You could run it, but it'd run slowly because the game is unable to allocate enough space . RAM is the Physical Memory of your system . For example, I have a great graphics card, but a bad ram, which is why I'm unable to run a game like GTA V [2.5 times lower than GTA V's settings] , because the game wouldn't be able to locate enough memory, and it'd constantly lag . I'm no professional here either, this is basic computer knowledge , friend.
Could not mount it on Daemon Tools because they had NO DATA. I don't understand how because these took me almost 2 days to download all of them (my internet isn't the greatest but it's not that horrific). I have no idea what to do at the point. help?
