I just downloaded the files and put them in the correct folder but there was some buggy issues with the new parts so I deleted it. Seems like it interacts weirdly with the Steam version. But I'll keep an eye on this and see if anyone else has any ideas.

Lemmie guess, you put the ZArena files in the wrong folder. (They're ment to be in Data, not DataEP1.)

Nope regular data file. But I also have the Robotic parts mod at the same time could that be an issue?

Also just before this is asked; yes I have either 1.5 or 1.7 but I had to get it as a mod package because if I remember correctly Spore on Steam never got the update just regularly because EA likes to hold out on those on stuff like this or the Sims.

Strange. It works fine for me. (Also, the Steam version already has the latest update.)

Try installing it via the ModAPI easy installer instead of installing it manually.

Thanks I can try, while on the topic is there an earlier or alternate version of DI that doesn't change the UI and stuff but just gives the parts? Sorry just I'm used to the usual layout and size and it just feels too weird for me.

I've just answered this on Davoonline, click on the cog near DI in the easy uninstaller to access a menu which allows you to uninstall certain parts of DI, such as the custom UI.

Consistent Issue of the parts not actually being there for the most part, just a blank page added to the editors and some of the limb parts.

the mod installer has some weird error that says "the requested operation requires elevation"

Issue 1: Are you making sure that you're checking every page of the new catagories?
Issue 2: Run the installer as an administrator or change the permissions for Spore's root folder.

I've got parts installed and stuff just some little issues like this weird thing with the new limb parts not actually working as limbs...

Are they in the Spore limbs catagory? Limbs and mouths are usually put in normal Spore catagories instead of in DI catagories.

They're there but they are only one segment each and cannot have more segments mounted to them.

Hold Ctrl/Control/CMD while attempting to mount more segments to them.

When I go to install DI, the installer just says "Something went wrong" what do I do?
