Yes, do as Aloofi said. Most of Proportions' empire files are screwed because of constant changes and upgrades. Start new game with random AI and then save empire files for all races you want to add later in game setup !

Are you sure, oleg? I don't know of any problematic Proportions EMP files. The empire selection point costs haven't changed for a long time (2.0?), so most old Proportions empire files should work.

Also, I don't think there is any Proportions EMP file for the Amon'krie.

I would suspect you're trying to load a non-Proportions EMP file which somehow got into your Proportions empires directory, which of course won't work because Proportions has always changed the racial traits around.

If you want to create an Amon'krie EMP file, though, it's fairly easy to do so. Just set up a new game with the desires empire point level, and tell it to randomly generate many AI empires (but no neutrals) and chances are good an Amon'krie will be one of them. Then change them to human control from the game menu during play, End Turn until you are in control of the Amon'krie, and save their empire file.

Note that there are three variants of every AI empire, and each one is different at each point level, so there are about 4 x 3 = 12 slightly different Versions of each race.
