Default How do I load a race with no empire file(s)?

I'll delete this soon.
I posted below same topic, but I'm desperate.

CueCappa race has empire files, CueCappa2000, CueCappa3000, CueCappa 5000 etc, and loads wonderfully.

Ferg, Dominion, and other races do not
apparently, have empire files included.
Don't you need them. They don't work.
I can't get borg2000 race to work even though it has Borg2000 empire. I name the new folder the same Borg.

If the race has no .emp file, it's just a bunch of pictures. You'll have to make your OWN race.

You can make your own .EMP files by starting new games with random empires until you get one with the desired race.

Then go to the file menu, and click "players".
Deselect the desired AI from computer control, and end your turn.

When the AI's turn starts, go back to the file menu and select "Save Race". Save it as "Borg2000" or whatever. You now have a .EMP for that race.

PS: don't delete the thread, others may have the same questions. (And if you delete the first message, the thread dies with it)
