FYI - TDM ModPack 1.70 Posted

[MasterDave]

I have run into a bit of a technical problem after installing the new Version of the mod into my SE IV directory. I had previously been running 1.60 with about ten additional races acquired from the very creative individuals on this forum. When I extracted the 1.70 TDM modpack over the old one, and tried to start a new game, I found that only the shipsets from the races in the Modpack were showing up on the race creation screen. The folders and files for the new races were still present in the Picures/Races directory, but I could not access them at all on the "Add new race" page on the new game set up. I tried erasing one of the race files and reinstalling it in the picures/races directory but its pictures still did not show up when I tried to add a new race.

Do I need to reinstall SE IV, the 1.30 patch, and the Modpack from scratch in order to be able to put back all of the other new race pictures and *.emp files (they do not show up under "add existing races" either, meaning their *.emp files are not being recognized either). Is there an easier way? Has anyone else had this problem? Any advice would be most appreciated.
