No email. Also, spore!

Our home email server is down until further notice, which means I'm only getting lj notifications for replies to posts I've made. So my apologies if I seem to be ignoring you!

And thus: Cam, when you get home, the Spore demo creature maker is in shared/files.

Look what I made!:



Yeah, fallimar's are better, it was still fun :)

Also: note that, afaict, according to the TOS EA owns everything you make.

Looking through the creations of other people, it's not really looking like they've been able to overcome the limitations that were frustrating me.

I had some fun with my first creature, just messing around. For the second, I decided I wanted to try to recreate the Luggage. A mistake on my part. I hadn't even put on half the legs before my creature was too complex. Getting a single mouth to face the side rather than the front? Not possible, as asymmetry is, by and large, not permitted.

I also notice that you can't create shaggy/hairy monsters :(

Yeah, I've been burned by these sorts of editors before so just set myself the goal of "The sorts of things fallimar seems to have been able to make, but different". But I know how that frustration feels: a few years ago I decided to make a NeverWinter Nights version of "The Colour of Magic" and it was All Pain.
