This app allows you to quickly download all creations from a specific person or Sporecast.
Changes in version 0.3
- Added a workaround for a Spore.com issue (HTTPS certificate expired on Oct 14th 2023 and has not been renewed)
- Updated internals (.NET 6) to drastically reduce the file size of the app
Usage
This version of the app requires Windows (64-bit). If you need a version for another OS or older computer, ask on Discord (below).
Download and save the SporeDownloader.exe file.
Do not double-click the file to run it, as it must be run from the command line.
On recent versions of Windows, go to the folder where the SporeDownloader.exe file is located, right-click the background, and choose "Open in Terminal". If you are using Windows 8 or 10 and this option is not present, instead click "File" in the top left, and "Open Windows PowerShell".
Downloading creations from a specific player
Type the following, then press Enter. Replace <username> with the username of the player.
.\SporeDownloader.exe user <username>
For example: .\SporeDownloader.exe user DOGC_Kyle
Downloading creations from a Sporecast
You will first need the Sporecast ID number. To get this, open the Sporecast on Spore.com. The ID will be in the URL of the page, it is the first number after "ssc", and will begin with 50. For example, in the URL http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=ssc-501053519204, the Sporecast ID is 501053519204.
Type the following, then press Enter. Replace <id> with the ID of the Sporecast.
.\SporeDownloader.exe sporecast <id>
For example: .\SporeDownloader.exe sporecast 501053519204
The creations will be placed in a "spore_assets" folder, and sorted into subfolders by username or Sporecast ID. The files will be named according to the IDs used by the Spore server.
