I use a custom race with the Pirate Ship Style mostly because I like the big skulls I can put on things. I recently tried to play again after a time away and started a new game, but when I go into the designer, there's no parts or hulls or anything with which I can build a ship. The game seems to do the auto designs for ships (sniper, explorer, scout) that it normally would fine, but I am completely unable to build one myself.

I've deleted the game and reinstalled, I've deleted the GalCiv3 folder from my documents, neither worked. Did something change when the two DLC were released (neither of which I own) or is it possible the Star Trek hulls I downloaded from the Workshop messed with a file that I didn't manage to delete with the reinstall?

I edited my custom race to use the other races ships, and the designer appears fine with them, and if all else fails I'll just use those. However, I will miss my skulls.
