as someone who only ever played the ds version of spore, is there a limit to how many parts you can have on a creature, or is it more of a "you're only allowed x amount of limbs/decorations per space" type deal. or is there just. no limit whatsoever

on pc spore, the hard limit is 255 parts. limbs start freaking out once you add a certain amount or size of limbs or feet/hands, but the maximum amount of feet i've found are accepted by the game is 40. usually less. after this, you get some polygon vomit

if you add even more it can even do this. the limbs and spine will cease animating as the game just barely tries to hold it together

typically you're limited by the in-game complexity meter for sharing and vanilla gameplay, but there's a fair amount of mods that completely disable the complexity meter and leave that entirely up to you as the player. animated parts [mouths, etc] take up more complexity on the creature while decoration parts [knurls, etc] are more lenient.

that being said, spore is held together with scotch tape and dreams but it sure as hell will keep itself that way for as long as physically possible within the game's engine. it has no reason within normal gameplay to be able to handle creatures this complex, but it's still built to take it Just In Case

The fact you put the year spore released in your blog title made me realize I’m only older than spore by a matter of months

[making-you-in-spore]

what if spore milf. but they were actually spore femboy dilf

i'm down with this but only if he's fat

[making-you-in-spore]

multiple people have now told me to die over the shiteyanyo spore so y'all have lost privileges of reblogging that post. do not ever talk to strangers like that even as a joke.

while i can't use my spores as an attack type on the website, i decided to bite and try it out this year as a regular artist. i will be making art of the regular variety, but several spore creatures i've made for this blog are available as a "character" you can submit for: various spore creatures

captain thunderhide

[i also have some of my regular characters on there, but that's irrelevant to this blog]

as a reminder, before anyone asks, i will not be doing art fight with spores as much as i think it'd be funny. artfight does not accept spore creations as a valid submission type

idk if you answered this before, but what kind of version of spore do you use for modding it? a ripped version, through steam, or EA? i want to try it myself :)

steam, but GOG is usually considered the best version for modding. not that steam is bad mind you, it's fine now, but the folks in smc usually recommend GOG.

absolutely do not use a pirated or cracked version of spore for mods, btw. piracy is cool as fuck, but mods are famously unstable on cracked [and out of date] versions of spore.

[making-you-in-spore]

Have there been any outlandish creations you've done before?

i feel like that comes with the premise of spore, you're gonna make some serious abominations at some point or another

[making-you-in-spore]

Did you know about the Dr Pepper parts pack thing?

what kind of spore player would i be if i didn't?

[making-you-in-spore]

Happy pride, everyone! I made a joke about my embroidery and now I've made it reality.

Want to use this as an icon? Consider tossing me, an unemployed trans person, a kofi donation! I'm still looking for a job and in the meantime any support at all really helps me to keep stitching projects.

[making-you-in-spore]

this is correct

i made a perfectly normal griffon in spore [2008]

[making-you-in-spore]

I hope someday they make a new spore game with even more parts just for you

and they BETTER make it open source so EVERYONE can enjoy it

[making-you-in-spore]

Who are you?

There's actually two of us! @ejsuperstar and @user-without-a-cool-acronym!

(EJ): I'm a fanartist who really likes Heroforge! I enjoy making characters from fandoms I'm in it! My tag for my posts is #ej posts

(User): I‘m mostly just a fandom blog who likes making their own and others‘ Blorbos in heroforge<3 My posts are tagged #user posts

Why do this?

Well @making-you-in-spore mentioned how they were surprised no one did this yet, and we both were like "we should do that", so we've teamed up to bring you even more Heroforges!

Can I request a Heroforge?

As of rn: Sure! It might take a bit to get to them, but requests are open rn!

nvm die what the fuck is that miku

perhaps you weren't aware of this, but telling random people to die isn't very good of a joke and will in fact get you blocked

[making-you-in-spore]

surprised that nobody's made a making-you-in-hero-forge yet
