For several reasons I usually waive background requisites for starting languages altogether, but I didn't saw any option to make this work on Hero Lab.

Is there a way to get rid of pre-requisites fort languages completely?

You mean for feats and PrC's? Not really, no. Each thing with a language pre-req is coded individually for this. There are a couple of ways around this:

1) Use an adjustments to give characters more languages and let them take whatever language they need to fill any pre-reqs. This is the easy method.

2) Use an adjustment or condition to give characters all the language tags. That should qualify them for all pre-reqs without (I think) filling in their list of languages.

No, not this.

I want all languages to be available for all starting characters.

Sorry, I was sleepy and got confusing in the way I wrote this.

I think there's a tag that can be placed on the character. Humans have it, I think. I'll have to research it when I get on a computer with HL installed.

If you apply the tag Language.Any to your character (easiest through an adjustment or condition) this will open up almost all of the languages to be available to your character. There are a few outliers that require more specific tags.

I tried but it didn't worked, I'm not sure why.

The only way I found to do this was by adding it at the button "Tags" when creating the Thing and add GroupId: Language and TagId: Any, as it is in the Human. Tried as Condition, Adjustment and Trait, none worked.

Perhaps I misunderstood the original question. Sounds like you've got it sorted, though.

As I said, it didn't worked. I don't know how to add a tag, apparently, and I need it for two projects, now. Can someone help me?

I do need to work on my way of writing...

What exactly are you trying to do? Create a language that anyone can take or allow all characters to be able to take any language? Or is it something else?

For the record. To add a tag in a script, use something like this:

Code:
perform hero.childfound[rHuman].assign[Language.Any]
This assigns the tag Language.Any to the thing rHuman, if this thing is on your character.

I think he wants to make it so any race can start with any language rather than having a select list. He would have to apply the tag to every character he made.

The easiest I can figure to do this is to make an adjustment. Just call it "All Languages" or something. Set script to Pre-Levels and use this code:
Code:
perform hero.assign[Language.All]
Just make sure to put this adjustment on new characters.
