Hey folk if you have an error message in the program under the mod or tuning tab. You have to move the cdb_100.xml and mdb_100.xml from ""\Inside Operations\Two Worlds Control Panel"" to ""C:\Users\"User Name"\AppData\Roaming\TwoWorldsCP"" that should fix it.
Consider that most mods need different versions of the game most of the time the mod version go in line with the game version.
Have fun :)

"Two Worlds version 1.7 is still considered to be compatible to the control panel but the mods are mostly from version 1.5 or predates even this, so you can play the latest release and enhance it but thats it, modpacks will not apply."
Please dont even try to get anything to work with the Steam version or the latest version of the game (1.7), it will not go well. Most of the modpacks that we're released for this game did so on service release 1.5 and will only work with this version, sometimes even not that because some written/modded stuff could only work on windows xp sp2... I uploaded a picture of game box you should use for this, it will if you not have it already cost you maybe 5 - 7 $ or Euro and you should never pay more for it...Serious don't let someone convince you otherwise..
You also need to activate some old legacy features on windows and some other stuff but that should be known or you can search it up on google. That doens't mean nothing will work most mods and stuff from the old forum works on windows 10, that said you guys will have to learn a bit about how this old timer works to get the stuff running.
There should be a problem with the cutscenes especially with the end-cutscene of the game that fails to play, this happens because windows lags a specific driver that was more common when win xp was around, this thing is also really hard to find especially cause it most of time turns out to be a malware and not the actual thing, you maybe start to get how much time i invested into this only to get ripped XD. I'm actually not really sure if this driver still even works right on win 10.
There is no need to alter anything cause the latest version isn't that much more useful and brings no new content or feature that would make it worth the trouble, also there are no good tools to do so or to mod anything innovative like skyrim does with its script extender etc.. So the best thing someone could do is taking the service release 1.5 and build on top of it with new written gadgets like Witcher3/2077 does with it's Wolven Kit and to do this it needs a team of capable people to get it in time. Well even then its maybe far to late cause it makes no sense if no one is interested in Tw1 anymore, but i could be wrong about this maybe someone comes up but nahhh i doubt it.
unfortunately, the few released mods for Two Worlds are very very hard to obtain (or impossible). Some of them only works with previous version of the game (1.5 for example) and the only way to play with those mods is to install the retail version of the game (1.0), update it with single patches (MODDB) and then install this mod. Pity.
The GOG version of the game (and i think STEAM too) have the 1.7 number version.
EDIT: yesterday, with a bit of luck, i found a thread in the Steam Community-section of the game: Working method to enable mods
Yep that's right can confirm it there is a big pack where every little and great mod was put in so they may survive for future generations, this is why the control panel is still around, its also the reason i put it on nexus so the thing doens't get wasted, someone can use it as a basis to get into writing something new like MO2 maybe...
There are many such forum threads mostly on steam and other places, but like you said you need a lot of luck to find those. I did this cause i found a good post with detailed steps for modding/writting the damned thing, i had even a mod where you can play as Kira or get the armor from the end cutscenes (Evil Side) but both on different versions..
With the possibillites today the game could get some really needed upgrades, but i hardly doubt anyone is interested, but who knows.
This is made for the game version 1.5 but the current version is 1.7 and using the control panel program and everything set up, it doesn't appear to work anymore.
My problem is that Control Panel is not working System.Xml.XmlException: Beim Analysieren von 'EntityName' ist ein Fehler aufgetreten. Zeile 1, Position 427. bei System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Throw(Exception e) bei System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseEntityName() bei System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseEntityReference() bei System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read() bei System.Xml.XmlLoader.LoadNode(Boolean skipOverWhitespace) bei System.Xml.XmlLoader.LoadDocSequence(XmlDocument parentDoc) bei System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(XmlReader reader) bei System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(String filename) bei o.a(Boolean A_0, Boolean A_1) So, how could I instal this mod without the control panel?
you start only as a human male. you have to install (only one?) one of the other PC mods. elf female, elf male, dark elf male\female, human female 1.5. they are listed just above New World 1.5 in Two Worlds Control Panel.
the description in the control panel (https://www.nexusmods.com/twoworlds/mods/4?tab=files) says you can only use certain mods with this mod. eg. characters. does that include "three towers mansion" by Vinniemc? EDIT: never mind, i noticed the teleport outside the starting temple is missing. i disabled the "three Towers" now it`s back. bummer, i need storage. 2nd EDIT: the teleport was moved over to the tower.

So, how could I instal this mod without the control panel?
