This game has a notes page

This article is a work in progress.
...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

With ambitions wider than the cosmos, Spore was one of Maxis' more... unusual ideas. Sadly, thanks to a long and rocky development period, it quite possibly has more unused content than used.

To do:

Improve page organization and formatting.

The demo was leaked a few days ahead of release.

Unused Models

AKA scripting files.

Unused Sounds

Unused Graphics

Unused Modes

Unused Editors

Spore places heavy emphasis on user-generated content by allowing players to create characters, vehicles and buildings through "editors". In particular, there are editors that are not directly accessible in-game and they are often empty, broken or just creepy.

The Cake Editor allows for the creation of cake-shaped buildings, with bird beaks for strawberries, building walls for cake layers, a picnic plate dais and background music from the Creature Editor.

Launch with the command line argument -state:FloraEditor

The Flora Editor allows for the creation of plants, and is rather buggy. To prevent crashes when using the editor, avoid the following:

Scaling parts with the scroll wheel
Using the SHIFT or CTRL keys
Selecting invisible parts from the menu

When user-created plants are pollinated into game worlds, the game may become unstable. To prevent this, give creations *only* the tag gaprop (only for Galactic Adventures). When forced saving is used, creations can be added into adventures.

Launch with the command line argument -state:CellEditor

The Hidden Cell Editor is an expanded version of the Cell Editor that offers parts seen only in cells made by Maxis. Strictly speaking, the editor is actually a template that the cell editors seen in-game are based on.

In addition, you can also bring your cell into Test Drive with a glitch. Zooming in and out is buggy and the Roar animation button is disabled.

Finally, by scanning Spore's memory with Cheat Engine using the exact value 103140689 (creature creator) and subtracting that value by 1, the main menu option to directly enter the Cell Creator is no longer hidden.

Global Template is the bare-bones template for all editors in the game. The similarly empty Mineral Template is the template for all building and vehicle editors.

Harvester Vehicles and the Harvester Editor

The statistics panel has been modified to prevent a game crash. Also, the original budget was 75, making every part unaffordable.

Harvester Editor music.

Harvester vehicles can also be made using the full vehicle editor through the launch state -state:VehicleEditor, avoiding crashes.

Harvester vehicles are treated as generic land vehicles when placed in adventures.

The Harvester Editor is similar to the other land vehicle editors with unique procedurally generated music and without offense parts (that give Military/Religious/Economic power). The editor can be loaded by dropping in a harvester .png file and loading the editor crashes the game.

(Source: A-xesey, Random Spore Facts Tumblr)

Harvester vehicles can be made to appear in Civilisation Stage if the vehicle purpose is set to kVehicleColony (the value 3, as shown in the video with Cheat Engine). They are unable to do anything besides claim spice geysers and use the military vehicle voice clips associated with attacking epics and villages. Harvester vehicles are a cut game mechanic where the player must protect the vehicles so as to ensure a continous source of spice.

Farm Buildings

Farm buildings are also cut from the game, and appear as houses in adventures. They can only be made by selecting BuildingFarm in the building type menu after entering the building editor with the launch state -State:BuildingEditor. They are not visible in the Sporepedia and forced saving is necessary.

Launch with the command line argument

-state:PlannerThumbnailGenerator

.

Planner Thumbnail Generator is of unknown purpose and was probably used by the developers as a place to display planner icons.
In the base game, the parts menu is a horizontal list of various buildings from the Tribal and City Planners. In the Galactic Adventures DLC executable, the horizontal list now contains over six hundred icons from the Adventure Editor, rendering it invisible.
The part menu background is taken from the Tribal or City Planner.

This, the fact that PROP files in hutstyles are prefixed with he, as well as how hut models are stored in editor_rigblock~ (a rigblock is a deformable part), are the remaining traces of the cut tribal Hut Editor. The Hut Editor would have allowed the player to change the appearance of the hut in the middle of their tribe.

Unused Game Modes

Spore has had several sections of the game cut from its final release, such as the Aquatic Stage, where the player controls a marine animal rather than a land animal. Unfortunately, they appear to have been completely removed from the final release. This section will instead focus on other things that the game internally considers to be sections of the game.

Level Editor

The Level Editor allows a player to place and manipulate various objects on a planet's surface and is the only unused game mode left in the game. The Level Editor is accessed by switching the current game mode to LevelEditor with a mod such as ModCreatorKit. Directly using the command line argument -state:LevelEditor causes the game to crash possibly because a planet has not yet been loaded into the memory.

Simulator::TechLevel

There is an additional value for the technology level of a planet corresponding to the cut City Stage which went in between the Tribe and Civilization Stages.

{ None = 0,
Creature = 1,
Tribe = 2,
City = 3,
Civilization = 4,
Empire = 5 }

The Terrain Editor is for sculpting the surface of a planet and no longer exists in the final game. A developer video of the Terrain Editor is provided here.

Animation Viewer

layout_atlas~\AnimViewer.spui

The Animation Viewer is similarly non-existent in the final game, and a developer video of creatures dancing in the Viewer is provided here.
The text at the top of the light-green rectangle is one of the following:

Animlist: lmb - replace cur; shift-lmb - replace all; alt-(shift)-lmb - queue; rmb - start immediately
Creatures: lmb - replace creature; alt-lmb - add creature; rmb - max editor lod
Animations: lmb - replace cur; shift-lmb - replace all; alt-(shift)-lmb - queue; rmb - start immediately
Scripts: lmb - execute script
Planets: lmb - set as next planet; rmb - restart immediately
Gaits: lmb - load cur; rmb - load all

Other App States

Using the command line argument -demo appends "Demo" to the game window's title. There is also the dummied out command line argument -preload.

The game also internally references a number of other states in animations~\SporeAppStates.trigger that do nothing when loaded as they no longer have any code associated with them.

Cell Stage is split into 5 worlds, Ice, Water, Plant, Rock and Beach. The cells and objects that spawn in each world is defined in .world and .populate files. There is also a cut world_random that allows user-generated cells to populate the world instead of Maxis cells, causing oversized plant pallets and cells to dominate the landscape. The Maxis cell Oog is used as a placeholder and there are no more objects above a certain size.

This effect was achieved by replacing all IDs referencing other worlds with the ID for world_random using Cheat Engine while in the Cell Stage:

6D2FC7B7 - cell_empty
6F95F97B - world_random
29C95ACF - world_random_bg
8393271F - world_ice
33BEB73B - world_ice_bg

Unused Cutscenes

Unused Sea Vehicle Unlocking Cutscene

This is an unused cutscene for unlocking sea vehicles in the Civilization Stage. In the final game, sea vehicles are automatically unlocked if the player starts with or captures a coastal city.

Creature Stage Combat Animations

Shown in order:

/animations~/cbmt_com_block.animation

/animations~/cbmt_com_block_hit.animation

/animations~/cbmt_com_punch.animation

/animations~/cbmt_com_slash.animation

/animations~/cbmt_com_stick.animation

/animations~/cbmt_com_tackle_hit.animation

Several animations related to cut combat abilities: "Block", "Punch", "Slash", "Stick", and "Tackle".

The "Punch" animation is very similar to the test drive action one (csa_actn_punch.animation), but is a lot faster.

The "Stick" animation possibly implies that the random sticks found in creature stage that can be grabbed could've also been used as weapons directly, other than just being able to throw them.

Unused Parts

Being a game where you arrange animal body parts or building parts together, it is no surprise that several parts go unused.

It is possible to create a creature with no social abilities by giving it only a Bot Parts mouth and no social parts, and attempting to socialize with this creature crashes the game.

Cuteness and Meanness

You can even see a published creature's Cuteness and Meanness with the fan-made Sporepedia browser https://www.sporistics.com/

Like a role-playing game, parts grant a creature stat points, including stats that are completely hidden from the player.

Cuteness and Meanness are invisible stats still in the game which may determine the aggressiveness of a creature (which affects how they behave as NPCs as well as editor music), though the official Spore article on the subject doesn’t mention Cuteness or Meanness.

The thing closest to these "overlay" eye effects that still exist in the game is the "blind" filter when a creature has no eye as well as the "Stylefilter" cheat that changes how the world is viewed, there likely were different filters similar to these assigned to sight parts at one point of development.

In addition, there is a prop file describing the unused Block ability.

Flora Editor

As the Flora Editor is already unused, so are the parts in the editor. The Flora Editor is highly similar to the Creature Editor, with stem and branch parts actually being creature spines (not shown as a part) and creature limbs. More interestingly, there is a completely removed Perch ability, which may have allowed your creature to rest on a plant.

Planners

Planner Thumbnail Generator

Planner Thumbnail Generator references several hidden or unused parts in its parts palette. In particular, it contains parts of a type called hutstyles. Hutstyles would probably allow the player switch to between different hut models in their village in Tribal Stage, and was scrapped along with the Hut Editor.

Citystyles

While the different city visual styles are used in game, the option to change it in the City Planner is not. The video showcases a bunch of citystyle parts which changes the look of the city when dragged onto it (in addition to the Civ Transition Minigame decoration). The parts are added to the decorations tab of the City Planner using this mod.

Hut Tools

You already start off with a campfire and a chieftain in the Tribal Stage, but you can make them show up in the Tribal Planner with this mod.

Adventure Editor

There are several test terrain stamps from the base game that place textures on a planet's surface. These are not actually unused Adventure Editor palette items but are displayed in it.

Unused Creations

Eyeguy

There is an unused cell that never appears in the Cell Stage, seemingly as a test for different cell parts. Interestingly, most of the parts on it are placed in midair slightly offset from the main body, and slightly asymmetrically at that. Also interestingly, the flagella parts on it have bulbs on the end of them. These are actually the same flagella part from page 4 of the "Extended" Cell Editor (cell_parts~!cl_movement_flagella_04) but with different values for the part's normally-inaccessible morph handles.

PaintSwatch

The template for the paint sprites that appear in the Cell Editor is an actual cell, called "PaintSwatch".

Naming Oddities

Fin parts

The fin parts in the Creature Editor are Detail parts in the final. However, unlike every other Detail part, their internal hashed name does not start with the prefix ce_detail_, but rather ce_movement_, which is the prefix used for feet. This is a leftover from the scrapped Aquatic Creature Stage, where fins would have had actual use as movement parts.
