If you want 20,000 in coin, wood, and food for the single player
campains all you have to do is this:

-Start your campaign and save the game immediatly when it starts.
-Click "Menu" (top right), resign and go all the way back to the gameplay menu.
-Select single player, skirmish, and start a new skirmish game.
-The skirmish starts with 20,000 in all three resources.
-Click "Menu" (top right), then "Load", then pick the campaign that you just saved.
-The game will open up your saved campaign and the resources will now be 20,000.

This is totally wacky and obviously the developers were surfing the net
for Jennifer Aniston nude photos when they should have been debugging.

Press ENTER and type in one of folowing cheats:

<censored> - wood, seriously, try it as it is
Medium rare please - food
Give me liberty or give me coin - coin

Edit resources:
---------------
Submitted by: saffan shahid

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy
of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "proto.xml"
file in the "data" directory in the game folder. Note: You may first need
to uncheck the "Read Only" attribute of that file's properties in Windows
Explorer. Search for the text "CrateOf". You will find CrateofFood,
CrateofCoin, CrateofWood, CrateofFoodLarge, CrafteofCoinLarge, and
CrateofWoodLarge. For all these entries, find the tag "InitialResourceCount"
and change the count to whatever desired. For example, the normal crates
each have "100.000" of the resources. You can change the "100" to "99999.000",
etc. Make sure you do this for all the crates; sometimes a map will give
you a large crate of something, and smaller ones of something else, etc.
This works best because every map you play in campaign or skirmish starts
you with some "crates" of resources, which your settlers will gather out.
This will edit the crates to have huge amounts of resources in them.
However, it still takes a long time to get the resources out of the crate
for the settlers, because there are so many. If you are impatient, search
for "Settler" in the "proto.xml" file and find the tag for GatherCrate.
Change the value to whatever desired, preferably something very high
(for example, "99999"). They will pull the resources out of the crate instantly.


Description: Get up to 44 cards in your deck!:

Cheat Type: Secret - Non-obvious in-game tricks or hidden features to ease
or enhance gameplay
It\'s quite simple:
Go to My Documents\\My Games\\Age of Empires 3\\Savegame open the
sp_yourcityname_homecity.xml (make sure you back up this file) and find the
line [activetechs]
This are all the cards you can use in the game.


For Example:
I copy my tag: [tech dbid =\"2030\"]HCExtensiveFortifications[/tech]

I paste this tag between the tags: [cards] [/cards]

After that, i change the tag [tech into [card and [/tech] into [/card]

Save the file and open the game. Play a skirmish game and you\'ll notice
that you have 21/20 cards!

You can do this with every card you have availeble.
The only problem we have is the fact that you can\'t have more than 11
different cards of age 1,2,3,4. So you\'ll have to find out which cards
are for what age.
