Default Switching shipsets

I am in the early stages of a single player TDM game. Is it possible to switch the shipset used for my race without changing other aspects of my race?

Back up all pictures in your race folder. Copy new ship pictures to that folder and rename them to fit the race name.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping there was a less intrusive way. But this is not so bad.

Yeah, its the only way I know of changing a shipset without changing the AI files. Copy and paste the names so you you don't have to type it.

That's one place where DOS beats Windows - you still have to go to the command prompt if you want to do any heavy-duty renaming!

There's NO GUI EQUIVALENT to the simple

ren *.txt *.bak
