Hero skill limit

Okay, I am in desperate need of help on this: I need to get my heroes with more than 5 hero skills. I have, as of yet, been unable to do so. I manually added skills to the UnitAbilities.slk file, but the game simply cut off the last few. Has ANYONE found a way around this limit?

you could spell edit and make some of the skills into abilities and have up to a maximum of 7 things (5 skills and 2 abilities)

alternatively you could try a method that someone posted just now, with summoning heroes that cast spells of a certain type...

like your skill would summon an invisible wisp that would have its own skill set and then you could use that

That doesn't really help. I'm not looking for a way to fake more abilities, I'm looking for a way to get around this limit.

Unless you know a way around the hard-code, or emulate it via triggers, I'm afraid there isn't much choice.

This issue has been covered in the stickynotes at the top of the forums.

Even if you could get around this there wouldn't be any button slots left.

Buttons aren't an issue.
