Got Spore working after the patch install.
I like most other people was getting "BAD_DATA"
to fix this follow these steps:
1)Rightclick over the shortcut for Spore (If you don't have one - create one onto your desktop)
2) Select "Properties" from the menu
3) Where it says Target: it needs to read "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\SPORE_EP1\SporebinEP1\SporeApp.exe" -locale:en-us
4) All you should need to add to the target is the "-locale:en-us" bit.
This will work, HOWEVER NOTE:- Any planets or stars you have previously selected or hightlighted which said "Bad_Data" will continue to say "Bad_Data" if you saved the game, but any new stars,planets will now have proper names.
Básicamente, jugar Spore en gringo para solucionarlo. No estoy de acuerdo, porque los ingleses podrán, pero yo lo quiero jugar en español. ¿No hay algún mod, parche...para esto?
Un saludo.
