I had to manually move the package to the mod directory, but after that, it's visible by the mod loader and works as intended. Thank you. (tested on publictest)

Totally understandable. Thanks for clarifying ;)

There is hardcoded limit of 10 abilities for your character. It is not connected to attributes requirements.
Changing this limit may be possible, but i posses no such knowledge right now.

Out of curiousity, does this allow for additional ability picks? Usually, you pick between 3 and 5 ability trees before you can't add anymore. I have no idea how this works as sometimes I can get upto 7 unique abilities across a couple of trees and sometimes I can get 5 trees with a single ability type under it, on one character.

I'm just wondering if this mod allows you to say... get all the ability trees?

To run mods you have to enter settings -> beta and select "publictest" from the list. After short download you will be using newest version of the game (you can read patch notes) and have access to Mod Launcher.
Run the game and select Mod Launcher. The window will appear with all mods you have subscribed to. Make sure to check all boxes and click apply. From now on your game will be modified to enable all selected mods. Running Mod Launcher further won't be necessary unless you want to include additional mods.

Be wary that mods will be visible by mod id (very long number) - this mod id is 2899533680.

Should a game with mods be launched in some other way than without it? Then how? I can't find anything about it

I tested it right now and it is working properly. Maybe you have other mod overwriting it? Make sure this mod is last on Mod Loader tab and is checked.

dont work

I made this mod for Spellforce version 1.61 and it works fine.
Steam Workshop Mod Launcher is only available on version 1.61, so you are unble to run any mod from Steam Workshop on original Spellforce.

Hello

Will this mod work on version 1.61.x and up - or just 1.54.x ? :D
