I am in the early stages of a single player TDM game. Is it possible to switch the shipset used for my race without changing other aspects of my race?

Copy new ship pictures to that folder and rename them to fit the race name.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping there was a less intrusive way. But this is not so bad.

That's one place where DOS beats Windows - you still have to go to the command prompt if you want to do any heavy-duty renaming!

There's NO GUI EQUIVALENT to the simple

ren *.txt *.bak
