Modifying unit amounts

[ammo1369]

Hi there!
I am new to this forum. I've read a lot of tutorial's on how to modify MTW2 and i must say i am totally confused. I've setup the mod folder's and now want to edit the amount of units available in a single unit card. It turns out that there is limitations, up to 60. What is strange is that when i do type 60 in and play the game there is actually 75 units. When i try to go beyond that amount the mod doesn't work, just turns itself off. I've seen screenshots and even videos on youtube of game play's that even had 150 units in a single card.

If anyone could pleeease tell me how to remove those limitations or just how to modify such amount of units that would most helpful.

well i dont know how numbers are calculated, but it goes

48=60
60=75
100=125

the limitations are in 60, aka. 75 in vanilla m2tw. however, if you get the kingdoms expansions, this will rise up to 100, aka. 125. as for larger numbers, thats probably becouse you can change amount of units in the game options. small 50%, normal 100%, large 150%, huge 200%. he was probably playing on huge, 75x2=150.

In the main menu look for game settings and switch unit scale to huge. whatever number is in the unit desc is multiplied by about 2.5. The most you can have in a single infantry unit is 250. To get this switch unit number to 100 and then make unit scale huge. Going to 101 will cause game crash.

100 is the max on the kingdoms exe. 60 is the max on the medieval2 exe. On huge unit size, that becomes 250 for kingdoms and 150 for medieval2.

There is also a hardcoded max of 3 officers in a unit. So really, the absolute max unit size is 253 for kingdoms and 153 for medieval2.
