Spore creature editor

  • the tsumea app is finally here for iOS (iPhone, iPad)! Everything you have on here (Gamedev jobs, Member's art, Industry listings) and more! It's free and there's no ad tracking. Get it now!

  • tsumea now has a new section where those looking for work (including students who've graduated or are nearing graduation) can get listed so potential employers can know who's out there and available…

  • Earlier this year, we completed the mammoth task of migrating and rebuilding tsumea so that it was set on a new solid foundation that we could build upon. One of the…

  • We have an official Discord channel! The primary purpose of our discord channel will be for website support (account creation issues, suggestions etc), as well as for disseminating our job posts and news. We have a fair few avenues for our users…

  • Just a quick notice to let everyone know that you can post News again on tsumea. This feature was  disabled quite some time ago when we stopped posting daily news and reports on tsumea since it was such a time consuming procedure for our…

  • Well, it's done and it's working! The new tsumea has been months of arduous work, a whole lot of which went into migrating the data, and planning and rebuilding the site all over again. But now it's a whole lot more structured, organised, and…

  • Well, the forum has certainly been a sore point of the site for quite some time now. It used to be one of the most active parts of tsumea for a good part of a decade, but a whole lot of factors have contributed to its slow decline. Forum fatigue…

  • For the last couple of years, we've been on auto-pilot (development wise) on tsumea, settling on a smaller focus for the site. A bunch of the features that we've had since the site began (news, articles, events, media, and games listing) were…

  • Hi there folks, I thought I'd write a little bit about the new games section on tsumea that I’ve been working on for the last two and a bit weeks. This will be in two parts, the first will be a look back at the various iterations at the games…

Ok, uh.... I'm not sure why I'm posting this at 4:30 in the morning, but it made me laugh a little. People are getting pretty creative with the Spore creature editor, and darn it... some evil genius made this disturbing creature. View at your own risk.

Yeah I'm not going to click that, but I'll say some class mates spent some time making all the inappropriate and not so proportionally correct creatures you could imagine. Admittedly it was pretty funny some of the stuff you could get away with.

But I got serious. And now I want to make it my goal to make this guy with some changes here and there, in max. D:

It seems youTube removed it because it violated some terms of use agreement. That's hilarious!!

Hey, that looks awesome, Adromaw. It's inspired me to download the editor now to see what I can tinker up.

I haven't personally ran into problems with the demo either, not only is the creature creating flexible but it seems to be impressively stable for a demo.

I've had countless finished products and beta's alike crash, blue screen and even restart or shutdown my computer. But this thing ran like a charm for me.

Props to maxis on a well polished demo. I'm totally going to save up for this baby. I mean, it's just a demo :D - wow!

How did you get pictures of your creature? I made some snapshots, and sent them to myself via the creature editor, but the links return a 404 error :/

in My Documents there's a folder: "My Spore Creations" Everything is in there, even the creature it self is stored as a .png file, which on another computer can be dragged into the spore creature creators editor to rip your creations and modify them by someone else.

That's the directory to look for the snapshots you made. No need to send them.

I refrained from doing any penis monsters and came up with this thing. I dunno, I'm finding it hard to do anything really creative without it turning into a freak monster. The editing tool is top notch and the process of experimenting is heaps fun though. I'm amazed that creatures still walk and animated pretty convincingly no matter how far experimental you go with your creature

The one of the left is having a Homer moment.
