Unit cap and Capital ships

from Sins Forums
I tried modding the files, and it doesn't work. Can someone help me? I would love to increase the unit limit to 10000, and double the capital ships. There is a mod for it, bu it doesn't work in 1.02. Editing the files doesn't seem to do anything. Is there something I am missing?

I'm at work so I can't look at them myself (and I've been busy with other things), but make sure that you:

1) Are modding the right research files for each race.
2) Increase the max unit cap in the gameplay.constants file also (by 15% more than what you're trying to do, so 11500).
3) Make sure you put the mod files in the right mod path folder (explained in the pdf)
4) Make sure you enable it in game.

You probably did the last 2, but just to be sure :)

So doing some more figuring, I got it all. I was missing a nice little step. Didn't have the GameInfo dir and files right.

Firstly neonnfs, theres no need to post the same thing in two different threads. And second, it might have been more worth while starting a new thread with exactly what you want to change.

To answer your question, I'll list all the files you need to change in order to increase the maximum pop for all frigate/cruiser sized ships, specifically capital ships, your fleet supply, and you maximum allowed ships in-game:
