Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
lol it would be funny to make a race of head crabs

Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
Although it would be fun I am not sure what the point of paying for the creature creater minus the game is.....
Does it maybe come with a coupon for $10 off Spore when it goes retail?

Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
No, its just the demo of the creature editor. Not to be confused with the creature editor itself. This is the demo of the demo.
I have been playing with this demo demo for a few days, and it is awesome beyond recognition. I am the only one in my surroundings who is as enthousiastic as I am, so I guess that I am in the minority in my love for procedural animations, textures, models and incredibly flexible customization.
Please, as an expert (or so they claim) in my field, believe me when I say that this thing is amazing. If there would be some tool or hack that would let me extract the model and the animations form this tool, it would save me days and weeks of effort in creating assets for a game. Even if I just use it for rapid prototyping for fantasy creatures, it works amazing. Just with the limited toolset, the flexibility freaks me out...
I pray that EA will convert this into a tool for commercial character/animation creation, it would be glorious.
If you dont see the point of this thing, dont bother buying it. Just like I wont be buying the whole game, which will just be B&W all over again.

Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
Its not that I don't see the point of buying it at all, just that if I buy the retail game I will have basically bought the same $10 software again =/

My thoughts exactly. Though I will hold nothing back in screwing around with the free version!
Also, I think we should all post our most awesome creations in this thread.

Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
Spore apparently has a peculiar way of saving creatures. If you put this .png file in your Documents\My Spore Creatures\Creatures, you can load it in the editor and play around with it yourself.
I made a balloon animal. :3
I fear no evil, I fear no death, for the Emperor comes for me.
Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
Well, that's a very cute balloonimal indeed
I don't think I'm very good at it, and the colouring options were slightly disappointing, but otherwise this is definitely very fun and distracted me from my homework for about an hour.

Come visit my formerly glorious site!

Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
this is what i came up with so far, not going to pay $10 for the full version creature creator or i'd probably have made an herbivore, but it was fun putting this guy together and i for sure can't wait for the game to actually come out!
Re: Spore creature creating EXTRAVEGANZA
In the full game I was wanting to advance a set of intelligent pack-predators like wolves or raptors or something

Do NOT. NOT search Penis. Or anything like it.
Had this dropped on me by a guy I know:

I fear for the world, not only that, the game. Can't wait for some 6 year old playing the game to be running along and get jumped by good old [Edit: Percy].
