in an old version of this game, i was able to create races and then go into their file and edit them with notepad or wordpad; i could change their hair color and skin color and even give them new abilities. but with a newer version (i'm not sure what patch changed it), i can still edit races using notepad or wordpad, but i can't select them as npc races to play against. i can only play that race personnally.

how do i edit the npc races that i play against? i only want to change hair color, skin color, and assign them leaders that i create. these are not options in the faction creator, and i used to be able to get around that with notepad.
