If you don't use EM mod, DWUR for EM version can cause error in facility.txt in original game due to new facility type.

I was using the latest EM mod, 2.1.1.2 beta. I just installed over an old version though, 1.10.01. Should I re-install Distant Worlds from scratch before adding the new EM mod?

I don't think that old version would cause errors. Probably error in DWUR, rollback on previous version of DWUR if you have it.
I will check new DWUR version tomorrow, if I have time.

I saw I could download the 1.1.2 version. It also said it couldn't load an image file, but it kept giving me random ones. After a couple of tries, it loaded in. So I restarted the game and started playing. I could not get 1.2.0 to work for me. I tried multiple times, thinking it might go through. It always says it can't load the same race46png file.

Checked DWUR for EM, only largefreighter.png in family 45 is corrupted, everything else works. Theme changed and new game started after replacing corrupted file.
Gitlub displays corrupted image without errors, so I assume that it's is release zip corrupted during packing.

Will check 1.2.0 version tomorrow.
