I have no idea what the expac names are anymore, but I'm guessing you're talking about that, what, 11th or 12th expac now about Ro. Regardless, however much I know about the expansion, you cannot use the models with it at this time. Simply put, the files aren't there. Maybe in the future the devs would consider moving up to a further patch, depending on if another handy instance occurred (I.E. Everquest Crystal Edition with all 13 expacs or something stupid like that.) Right now, though, its easier to work with Titanium, I am sure, because if they got to where it was compatible with live, as it once possibly was (or at least was close), then there would be a jolly ol' DO NOT PATCH OR YOU ARE DOOMED sign up at the top of the forum in big bold red letters for a year again. Right now, if people want to play, they don't start asking stupid illegal things about how to get on after patching (as much), Mattmeck and co. stay happy, and the people go buy their Titanium edition to get on. Things change a lot if people want to play and find that there is no quick $20 solution to their problem. I'm sure this will change eventually when Sony eventually phases out Titanium, but that probably won't be for another few years I would think, and by then the EqEmu will have moved quite a bit further down the road.

So, yeah, sorry, there is no art there, and won't be until you move up in expacs. Because from 475 up all you have are DaVinci-posed naked humans, my guess is that 474 is as high as the model listing goes for the current expansion EqEmu is working off of. I suppose, if you really wanted to, there would possibly be some way to get your Ro expac and import the models into the game, but just the models, and likely not the gameplay. And that I'm not even sure of. Not to mention it would be a lot of work. My advice--wait for later. We've got 10 expacs full of stuff right now, and only three are populated, with all of those lacking certain qualities themselves (faction perfection, quests, and so on).

Oh, and to answer your question, yes, I believe there are probably races up to 65535. However, all of those races are null after 474, so therefore they just throw back the naked DaVinci human which is rather useless, or at least that is my guess. The devs of EqEmu might have included something to block people from attempting races over 500, however, just because races higher than 500 were totally unneeded at this time (as they are null), and they wanted to pity people and keep them from trying from 474 to 65535 within each zone to find races that weren't there, and 500 is a nice, even number to look at.

Last, the way the model system works with the numbers is that a number is applied to each model present within the game that the Sony developers found particularily important, be it a chest, a spider, or whatnot. As more expacs come out, there will be more models, and you can expect the number of usable, unique models to rise.

Hope I answered your question, and hopefully I answered it well and correctly enough. And yes, sorry, no more models than those 475 for now. I know what you mean; the variety of models is a fun thing, and its always something to look forward to.
