I think you might have a slightly better chance messing with the stock files (make copies of them first of course, and erase the active files).  In the end it'll still probably crash.  Since I'm planning on having editors that everyone can use, I didn't save the data files in a user friendly format.  The editors aren't quite ready yet, at least for species.

Incidentally, I managed to bum a ride in an SUV instead of flying, so I have my computer with me!  I should be able to program quite a bit.
