Spore Vehicles
jsalemi:
Could you share, pretty please (especially that Klingon one)? :)
Gus Smedstad:
I just played through a game and I've changed my mind. Plane shapes and colors, if not details, are quite visible in Civilization stage. The P38 was actually very distinctive, and it was easy to tell my planes from the enemy.
Tanks and ships are tougher because they tend to be very similar in general outline. Though one of the enemy civs had some weird ugly Maxis spherical tank that was noticable mostly because it was a sphere, not a block.
Textures for some of these ships are difficult. There just isn't one conveys detailed machinery. I built a Battlestar but I'm not happy with it because it's a pretty simple shape and the texture issue is more of a problem. There's no way to duplicate the proper shape of a D7 main hull, but there's still enough geometry to convey a decent impression.
I've uploaded the PNG's for these vehicles at my Flickr page.
D7 is here.
P38 is here.

How does one go about exporting things as PNG from the full game? I got the you-pay-money-for-three-installs version but didn't install the EA updater, so the normal online sharing stuff doesn't work.
Faizah:
Go to My Documents, there should be a folder there called My Spore Creations. Within that folder are folders like Creatures and Vehicles, those automatically contain the .png files of the (non-Maxoid) things in your game. This is where you get them from if you want to share yours, and where you can put them if you download others. (You can also drag and drop the .pngs into your game, handy if you're not sure whether you're looking at a vehicle or a UFO/spaceship, as these go in different folders.)

Do you have to be on any particular screen in the game to drag-and-drop on? the 'My Collections' maybe?
