Hey, on the two issues:
UserCanAlterTags
0 means it is a fixed Origin (story characters), 1 makes it a custom Origin and adds it to the rotation of non-fixed Origins. It was meaningful to switch these in an older UI version. The release version uses this as a simply check.
Starting Talents
All talents need to be assigned. If the talents aren't distributed in the file, the origin will be marked invalid and not show up. So when adding a point, be sure to assign that point as well.
@fire MD5 is used for checking tampering on the shipped data and general data corruption. MD5 is not used for character creation or any of the moddable files.
