If you are using the "Add existing race" button, you can change the shipset. Randomly generated races will choose the shipset that exists in the folder with the AI files.

There is absolutely no reason why you cannot load an EMP, and then edit the settings in it, including the shipset used.

If the shipset for a particular race cannot be found, then SE4 will load a random shipset for that race each time you load SE4.
The likely cause is a minor typo in the images or the folder name.
The text before the first underscore in each shipset image must be exactly the same as the folder name.
I'm not sure if it is case sensitive, but it can't hurt to check the case.
