The game runs great, though if you're using Wayland I would recommend playing the game using gamescope, in my case it solves some mouse input and windowing issues. Command:
gamescope -W 1920 -H 1080 -f -- %command%
Native build runs excellent. No Proton needed
If you have issues with the game (graphics, window) try using gamescope.
env DRI_PRIME=1 %command%
On Wayland you can use gamescope to prevent some unexpected errors.
By default the game uses my integrated graphics card, adding DRI_PRIME=1 solves the problem for me.
There's no much to say. The game run's very well, no tinkering needed.
If you want the uncensored version, just download this patch.
Due to how the game is distributed on Steam, to play the full version of Spore with all DLCs, you'll need to:
Link the other two games (DLCs) to the main game’s prefix (Spore - [17390])
cd "$STEAM_LIBRARY/steamapps/compatdata" mkdir -p 17390 ln -sf "$PWD/17390" 17440 ln -sf "$PWD/17390" 24720
Note: Replace
$STEAM_LIBRARYwith the path to your actual Steam library. For example:~/.steam/root/steamapps/compatdata
Install the games in the following order (don't launch):
- Spore (AppID: 17390)
- Spore: Creepy & Cute Parts Pack (AppID: 17440)
- Spore: Galactic Adventures (AppID: 24720)
Launch the game using the Spore: Galactic Adventures entry in your Steam library.
Log in with your EA account credentials when prompted.
Note: If you don’t already own Spore (and its DLCs) on your EA account, you may need to contact EA Support and ask them to link your Steam purchases to your EA account.
DRI_PRIME=1 %command%
If you are on Wayland its recommended to use gamescope which also let's you use AMD FSR in Native games.
Command: gamescope -f -F fsr -- env DRI_PRIME=1 %command%.
On Wayland is better to use gamescope since it helps to prevent many compositor related errors.
