This mod no longer works. However a Vast unit cap option is included in the 2.3 Players Patch: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1190476337

Vast is double the size of Huge unit caps, which puts fighters at the HWR maximum of 250. Similar to how bigger units take up more supply in other RTS games, bigger units have lower unit caps for game balance in HWR.

I have been looking all over for a mod that will allow myself and my friends to play without unit caps, thus only limited by the resources on a map and our own management abilities. This mod would allow that, it would seem... But it also seems to have been a long time since it was active. Can anyone help?

does no work as of 10/24/2017

Yea, Not working

I can't build anything other than capital ships with this mod.

Okay, well it seems to be fixed, but I'm seeing that the Kushan can only build... 39 frigates?

:(

I am aware. cause unknown.

game still crashes

Also edits the unitcaps settings for the Homeworld 1 Deathmatch and Homeworld 2 Deathmatch settings. Enjoy.

Updated. Fixes broken-ness caused by Gearbox rearranging file and directory structures in an attempt to confuse the modders and make us wnat to eat the fancy statue. I resisted the brainwashing and updated the mod instead.

Dunno. Try it out and see.

Is this compatible with "Classic Races Remastered Mod"?

@herbyguitar I've posted it. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=484123389

But, since I have some time now, and since everyone and their mothers wants it, I'll see if I can get it goin'. Stay tuned.

It's not a question of votes, @herbyguitar, it's a question of "how much time can I dedicate to doing it?"

How many votes do you need before you would consider an SP version?

Reason is for variety in playability. I like to have options for different types of game play.

Oh, yeah. That's possible. I tried it once. The problem is that it organizes it by ship type, THEN it will throw anything that it can't categorize into that row off the port side of the Mothership, but with a very high spacing. I'll probably try again on that matter, sort off the Kadeshi and Raider ships and stuff, maybe also the Taiidan and Vaygr ships too.

I would also vote for having the SP campaign unit limit extended.

I hope this isn't too off-topic, but does anybody know if it would be possible to create a mod to have units line up in more than just one long row? For example, after salvaging many ships, once you get to the last two or three missions it is entirely possible to have the line of captured units extend past the map boundaries, making them mostly useless due to the time it takes them to move to where you need them...

Anyway, I am looking forward to trying this mod once I have time play some more.

Was happy when I saw this, but got sad when I read that is MP only. Would love it if you can make it for SP, dont really care if it makes it easy or its consider cheating . I just want to be able to have a big army and feel like badass lol. Anyway nice mod.

@Mangobbler this mod works in Homeworld Remastered but for Multiplayer only.
@herbyguitar I'm not planning on making one since I consider it cheating in the SP campaign, but if the demand is high enough, I'll consider it.

Can we request an SP version?

Does this work with Homeworld 2 remastered?

Great Job. Very good mod for the game.

Nope. It's doable though.

can i use your mod in HW2RM Campaign ?

@Dj Arghlex OK thank you!

@Commando_Kain: It's for Remastered, but the process is likely the same for Classic Homeworld2.

Is this for remastered of Classic?

I don't actually know if there's a hardcoded limit, but I'd assume the point where the game just exits is the limit.

yay! more ships to blow!
just played with this and no problem so far, is this the maximum?
because IIRC there is a gametype file back in 2000 something and it had 200 units pero category.

Wish it would work with the campaign.. :| The low unitcap always bugged me...

will dang but i still like it tho

Weeelllllllll that's the thing. You can't. This is pushing the engine as it is, my computer starts to drag a bit, but I suppose I could just up everything to like, a thousand or something. Maybe in a separate mod.

hey man if you make a unlimted units you will get lots of ratings

Doesn't work in the Campaign, if that's what you mean.

Is this multiplayer only?

Watch out though, this crashed the game with a filled HW1 unit cap. Not to mention it ran at a nice and stable 20FPS during most of the 45-minute long match.

really good for big ship to ship battles.
