MAYDAY.....Mod Help Please

Ok,

I have all the mods downloaded and installed to the right directories. I installed the emp files for the different races in question. When I try to access them, I get the message that the game can not open to particular race empire. Now, if I create a new empire race, the files work fine. What am I doing wrong??????

That error comes up because the mod you are trying to play has altered the racial traits.

You need to create new EMPs for that mod:
1) start a game with lots of random AIs.
2) on turn 1, go to the file menu, click "players", and set all the empires to human control.
3) on each players turn, go to the file menu, and click "save empire". Use a descriptive name, such as "UkraTal: P&N v2.4, 5k racepts" or "Phong: UM 2k racepts"
4) repeat as nessesary until you have piles of EMP files to play with.

Or, you can just let the computer choose the AIs randomly.

Thanks Suicide_Junkie. I guess when I created the new emp I did it right then. Good to know im not a complete moron. Thanks again.
