No "Create Custom Race" Button ???

from GalCiv2 Forums
Hello, I looked but didn't see any mention of a change in this function,
I see no way to create a new custom race, is that disabled or something ???
Not that I wanted to, I already have a custom race I always load,
used it with beta 1, but then when I upgraded to beta 2 yesterday it apparently
erased it, so I exited and copied My Custom.customracexml from the GC2DarkAvatar
folder into the GC2TwilightArnor folder under My Documents, but still the game does not show the file to load...
Thanks, Jim...

I don't think custom races are supposed to be enabled in the beta yet...

So you copied the custom race file over from DA? Custom races are purposely disabled during the TA beta so the focus is on the new tech trees and improvements of the core races.

Thanks for the information...
Since it worked in beta 1 but not in beta 2, something changed but was not noted in the history... if I see a button I'll press it, "load" was there and it worked in beta 1 so I used it... other features in the betas say that they're disabled, but I saw no mention of this anywhere till here...
