The emulator doesn't work for me.
When I hit k and select a different core, it starts loading, then fails first
"Error loading custom game configuration files. The game will try loading without add-ons." Details: unit type not found: Bone Knight
then I hit OK
"Error loading custom game configuration files. The game will fallback to the default core files." Details: unit type not found: Bone Knight
then I hit OK again, and it loads 1.18.

(It's not always the Bone Knight that's the unit type not found.)
Which version's emulator are you loading?

Can you give the list of add-ons you have installed? It it part of the the build information provided by the game by clicking on the Image icon on the bottom-left corner of the main menu and then the
I found, among my addons, that Reign of the Lords and LotI Era prevent a successful switch of the core to any of the emulator cores (the latest version).

The reason seems to be any mod that directly from _main.cfg (or includes to it) adds units that are based on units that are absent in the core in question.

In the attached archive there is a minimal mod that breaks the switching of cores. If the unit is based on Wose Shaman (added in 1.16), the 1.16 emulator core loads and others don't. If you switch to "Saurian Javelineer" (added in 1.18), then no emulators will load
