I know the game limits the pop cap to 1200, I also know that there are mods that can raise it. One of the mods I found raises it to 5000 but says to extract the file to data/db or datadb (it's not entirely clear which is correct) file. This file does not exist when I download it from here so I put the .dat file into the data folder that is there, but it does not seem to work. Just wondering if anybody else has tried modding the game or has some other way of raising the pop cap above 1200. Seeing as how new computers can handle more units I would like to be less limited when I play LAN games

I haven't tried pop cap mods but I never saw the need. More units just makes more stress, IMHO. They can also mess with stability and don't really add to anything except a headache. :)

That said, these links may help you in your journey to pop-cap raising. Good luck!

I have a mod that decreased heavy Infantry and Citizens to 0 pop requirement.

you could also modify the EE2Xdb files to change the pop costs.
