The game had massive potential for modding but few mods were ever made. What does it take to make a nexus site and could one be made for Spore?

[BlackRaven117]

The modding community isn't nearly as strong as before, and as far as I know, the game has died in popularity, so I doubt it.

First thing to remember is that Spoor is owned by EA

@BlackRaven117: Creating a nexus site for Spore might renew interest in the game.
@Fonger: Yes, that could prove to be a problem. I don't know if EA's stand on modding counts for all their games, but it is likely that Spore is off limit since they still have 'active' games based on Spore (such as Darkspore and a planned game called 'Spore Creature Keeper' this year). It couldn't hurt to ask, though.
Troublesome company politics aside, I would still like to know about the creation of nexus sites.

would modding SPOOR ** violate their EULA



(BTW choice of spelling is deliberate)

Perhaps, which is why the last part about nexus site creation was meant in a general sense and not directed at any game in particular.

actually ea and maxis are fine with spore being modded, they just dont support it i just got the game (late too the part I know but eh 19 on steam) and have found several mods for it, also there is a sdk for it (spore master tool)

The SDK was made by modders. Also, modding for Spore is like skating on thin ice. The game isn't really that popular anymore and hardly any of the players left even mod it.
