No Trees visible on planet from Creature Stage onwards
After completion of the initial cell stage, the player is prompted to modify their creature for life on land. Immediately after the editor is exited, a cut-scene will show depicting the species migrating onto land. The player may skip this cutscene, but doing so may trigger a semi game-breaking bug where no trees are rendered on that save-game's planet, even after reloading the game. The only fix is to start a new save-game and to let the cut-scene play through. The fact that the game can be started from any stage and all previously created creatures are available for selection at the creation screen means this should cause little disruption.
"BAD_DATA" Names
This bug can appear after installing Patch 1.04 or SPORE: Galactic Adventures. The fixes only affects all future names, any previous objects named BAD_DATA must be changed manually.[2]
