AI in Balance Mod

So I have Balance mod, and I've downloaded a few extra races...which of course didn't work right away, so I tried to switch their main & setup scripts with the "default" examples from the Balance mod/empires folder. Still don't work...they just sit there not doing anything ingame, and their mood always reads "unknown". So what can I do to make these races work, is there a relatively simple (as opposed to rewriting the entire ai scripts) solution to make them work like they do (and yes, i tested this) in vanilla?

Thanks
