Oh, ah... by "directories", I meant the various different Web sites and such that host or link to various different ship sets. Sorry about the confusing terminology.

Each modfolder gets to have a directory tree which looks just like the stock tree. Although there are some minimum requirements, almost anything not overridden by a file in the mod will be loaded from the stock game.
Yeah, I've been reading up on mod folders, and apparently everything but the Data folder can be loaded from the stock game.

A little more reading and tinkering around, and I shouldn't have any problems creating a mod with the empires I want to use in it. Although it's worth mentioning that the only thing I'd intended to tamper with were the race ships and portrait images (not any actual data or file names, just the visual appearance of images).
