Of course. The "Add Existing" using the *.emp files, which were built using a 2000-point setting. If you want to "Add Existing" and have them use 5000 racial points, you have to edit the race to include all the settings. It also helps to save the 5000-point race so you can use it in the future without edits. I'm attaching a Word document that includes the 5000-point settings for all basic SE4 races (the ones that came from MM).

This is why a number of the modpack races come with multiple *.emp files; one for each racial point setting.
