Is there a maximum city size???

Maximum number of population reached???

It can't go past 255. You'd have to mod the game to get a city anywhere near there, though. That is, unless you're using the unpatched original of Civ3, in which case you can just add a few hundred workers to the city.

How do you mod the game to change this???

You make a scenario in the editor. Then you place a city for a civ. Right click on the city and choose properties. There you can change the city size to anything between 1 and 255

ok besides modding how big can a city get in a regular game of civ???

A city built entirely in irrigated and railroaded floodplain can grow to size 51, plus one for each wheat. You're highly unlikely to see an all-floodplain city location in an unmodified map, though. If modifying the map and not the base rules is allowed, the biggest city possible is a city of all floodplain with wheat, which could grow to size 71.

When not using a custom map, you'd be doing well to get a city past size 45. That would be from all irrigated and railroaded grassland with four cows/wheats.

The highest I have reached is 27, the first gae I ever won!
But, 255 is surely better!

In early version of vanilla Civ3, it was more than 1500. In 1.29f, and PTW, it's 255. In C3C, it's as high as the city can grow without starving.
