Meltpot problems

Hi all! Its nice to see people still interested in this game. I used to play on kali way back. Anyway I tried to run the Meltpot mod so I could beef up computer races but having some problems I hope someone can help me out. Running on XP, i can install and run Meltpot and have no problem editing the race but when I run Orion it crashes and gives me an error. I am running v1.31 and the error occurs after race selection is made and map starts to load, it says shipname.lbx(entry 0) is not an lbx file. Well this file is a lbx file, is meltpot changing this file? Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? Is there any other way to edit the race picks for computer foes. Thanks much!

PS- the game runs fine as long as I dont have meltpot installed

I'd rather use Corion2.

Start a new game.
Save the game right away (date 3500.0).
Boost those AI races of your save with Corion2.
Load your save and kick some AI butt!
