Developer: Maxis This game has unused animations. This game has a prerelease article This game has a notes page |
This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
With ambitions wider than the cosmos, Spore is one of Maxis' most bizarre ideas. Sadly, thanks to a long and rocky development period, it quite possibly has more unused content than used.

The Hidden Cell Editor is an expanded version of the Cell Editor that offers parts seen only in cells made by Maxis.

If you access the Cell Editor from the Sporepedia and save the creation within it, a glitch will allow you to take your cell into Test Drive if you click the edges of the grayed-out button. It is very zoomed-in and the Roar animation button is disabled.

By scanning Spore's memory with Cheat Engine with the exact value 103140689(creature creator) after clicking the Creature Creator button in the Create menu, selecting a different button to see which memory value updates with the menu, and changing that value to 103140688(creature creator minus one), the option to directly enter the Cell Creator, which is normally dummied out, appears.

The Animation Viewer is similarly inacessible in the final game. The text at the top of the light-green rectangle can be the following:
| |
Using the command line argument -demoappends "Demo" to the game window's title. There is also the dummied out command line argument -preload. The game also internally references a number of other states in animations~\SporeAppStates.trigger that do nothing when loaded as they no longer have any code associated with them.
The main menu's internal name is GalaxyGameEntry. |

The Civ Transition Minigame isn't even listed as a state, but it still has files in the game. It may be a rhythm game that takes place between Civilization and Space Stage.
Unused Creation Types
Harvester Vehicles
Harvester vehicles were land vehicles that were cut from the game, as a result it just treats them like generic land vehicles. They are not visible in the Sporepedia.
Farm Buildings
Farms buildings are also cut from the game, and also appear as houses in adventures. They are not visible in the Sporepedia and forced saving is necessary.
Unused Animations
Physical
To do: What is the difference between music_physical_nosound.animation and music_physical.animation? |
/animations~/music_physical.animation
/animations~/music_physical_nosound.animation
Animations to the tune of Olivia Newton-John - Physical.
Mahna Mahna
/animations~/music_mahnamahna_01.animation
/animations~/music_mahnamahna_02.animation
/animations~/music_mahnamahna_03.animation
Animations to the tune of the song Mahna Mahna, commonly associated with the Muppets. The video shows the animations being played in the animviewer by a developer.
Unused Parts
Cell Editor
Hidden Cell Editor Parts
While some are used in Maxis creations, these parts are not accessible to the player outside of the Hidden Cell Editor. These unused parts have the same abilities as their used counterparts, although in the Creature Editor the unused parts give no abilities.
Unused Morph Handles
Part name | Shape key 0 | Shape key 1 |
---|---|---|
Jaw | ||
Jaw | ||
Jaw | ||

Proboscis | ||

Flagella | ||
Cilia |
Some of these cell parts have unused data for morph handles as seen in Blender. The morph handles are only used in Maxis creations and don't appear in any editor.
Creature Editor
Grox Parts
The parts on the Grox are not in any editor in the game, and forced saving is required to save a creature that contains these parts. To get these parts, either download a Grox parts mod or drag a Grox .png file into a Spore window while inside the Creature Editor.
Spore Bot Parts Pack
As part of a limited-time promotion where you had to redeem codes printed on Dr. Pepper drinks, 14 cyborg-themed Creature Stage parts were released under the now unavailable Bot Parts Pack.
It is possible to create a creature with no social abilities by giving it only a Bot Parts mouth and no social parts, and attempting to socialize with this creature crashes the game.
Unused Morph Handles
Part name | Shape key 0 | Shape key 1 | Shape key 2 | Shape key 3 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Fauxry Wings |
The part Fauxry Wings has morph handles in the Creature Editor demo that go unused in the final game.
Planners
Planner Thumbnail Generator
Planner Thumbnail Generator references several hidden or unused parts in its parts palette. In particular, it contains parts of a type called hutstyles. Hutstyles would probably allow the player switch to between different hut models in their village in Tribal Stage, and was scrapped along with the Hut Editor.
Citystyles
While the different city visual styles are used in game, the option to change it in the City Planner is not. The video showcases a bunch of citystyle parts which changes the look of the city when dragged onto it (in addition to the Civ Transition Minigame decoration). The parts are added to the decorations tab of the City Planner using this mod.
Hut Tools
You already start off with a campfire and a chieftain in the Tribal Stage, but you can make them show up in the Tribal Planner with this mod.
Unused Creations
Eyeguy
There is an unused cell that never appears in the Cell Stage, seemingly as a test for different cell parts. Interestingly, most of the parts on it are placed in midair slightly offset from the main body, and slightly asymmetrically at that.
Also interestingly, the flagella parts on it have bulbs on the end of them. These are actually the same flagella part from page 4 of the "Extended" Cell Editor (cell_parts~!cl_movement_flagella_04
) but with different values for the part's normally-inaccessible morph handles.
PaintSwatch
The template for the paint sprites that appear in the Cell Editor is an actual cell, called "PaintSwatch".
Naming Oddities
Fin parts
The fin parts in the Creature Editor are Detail parts in the final. However, unlike every other Detail part, their internal hashed name does not start with the prefix ce_detail_
, but rather ce_movement_
, which is the prefix used for feet. This is a leftover from the scrapped Aquatic Creature Stage, where fins would have had actual use as movement parts.
