AoE2 Definitive Edition - Steam 101.103.54800.0 - SINGLE PLAYER ONLY
Includes user-confirmed resource editing/freezing, adjustable population limits,
and near-instant research. Instant troop recruitment is not included.
SETUP
Disable the previous table. Open this table without merging it with the old one.
Attach Cheat Engine to AoE2DE_s.exe and load a single-player match.
Enable the main entry and check the displayed values before editing.
RESOURCES
Double-click each Value to enter an amount (for example, 99999).
Tick Food, Wood, Stone and Gold to freeze them at the chosen amounts.
POPULATION
Set Housing capacity TOTAL to the desired total population.
Scenario cap BONUS adds capacity above the base scenario maximum.
Example: for a base scenario maximum of 200 and a desired maximum of 500,
set Housing capacity TOTAL to 500 and Scenario cap BONUS to 300.
If the current effective maximum includes an existing bonus, use:
new bonus = old bonus + desired maximum - current effective maximum.
Tick both population entries to hold the values.
RESEARCH
Note the original multiplier, then set Research time multiplier to 0.01.
This was confirmed to make research nearly instant. Tick to hold if needed.
Do not use 0 (reported ineffective) or 100 (reported extremely slow).
CHANGING MATCHES AND RESTORING VALUES
Disable the main entry BEFORE loading a save or changing matches.
Re-enable it after loading and check the displayed values again.
Unticking a child entry stops freezing; it does not restore its previous value.
To restore a value, untick that entry and enter its original amount.
Disabling the main entry stops all seven child entries from freezing.
No resource, population or research value is changed automatically on activation.
