OP
Ok I've looked in charactercreation.cs and found the part I think needs to be edited in order to change the starting Stats on a character. The problem is I am not sure what values I need to be changing. I tried changing the 90 : 80 to 100 : 80 and the result was all newly created characters started with 10 in every Stat.
Code:
private static void SetStats(Mobile m, NetState state, int str, int dex, int intel)
{
int max = state.NewCharacterCreation ? 90 : 80;
FixStats(ref str, ref dex, ref intel, max);
if (str < 10 || str > 60 || dex < 10 || dex > 60 || intel < 10 || intel > 60 || (str + dex + intel) != max)
{
str = 10;
dex = 10;
intel = 10;
}
m.InitStats(str, dex, intel);
}
The reason why they are get set to 10 each is because of this part in the if
(str + dex + intel)!= max
Also I think the client itself has the stat point cap hard coded for character creation (I may be wrong) but you could always use something like statballs or call a gump on creation where they have to set their new stats
(str + dex + intel)!= max

PyrO is correct, the character creation stat cap is limited by the client. Most shards that want to do this sort of thing just give a stat ball to the player when populating their backpack. I don't see one in our resources section though.

Alright, based on what I've learned here, I have decided to look for another way to allow new characters to start with slightly higher stats.
Right now I am considering is it possible to modify one of the following scripts to limit how much Stats can be changed on a new character. I have tried both options, and although a step in the right direction, not exactly what I am looking for.
1. A StatBall script, I shared to the Resources section. https://www.servuo.com/archive/statball.611/
2. TMSS 3.0 that is also under Resources. https://www.servuo.com/archive/tmss-3-0.446/

Aurastin I edited the statball script so it should be easier for you and the others to modify it.

I had just changed lines 107- 115... it seemed to work... I will try it in the marked area 66 - 72... 
~Edit~
Hey that worked. Easy. Thanks.
I did 600 as a test... Worked great. Now to figure out real numbers.
private int statcap=600;
private int defaultStr;
private int defaultDex;
private int defaultInt;
private int maxStr=200;
private int maxDex=200;
private int maxInt=200;

No problem
Exactly! And more than likely I would have come right back asking how to fix that too.

Feedback on this. I gave the updated StatBall a try and it now works exactly like I was looking for. I like how the different values can be easily changed depending on how one wishes to implement it.
Great work! Would you mind updating the StatBall I posted in resources with this change? Or with your permission, I can do so, and I will attribute your work.

Sorry, should have clarified. I mean, where do you / how do you set individual skill caps?
Say you want EvalInt to be hardcapped at 150 but Magery hardcapped at 120.
I actually used your resource already and reference it from time to time haha. Thank you!!
I guess this question is going to be aimed at both of you since you each have a part of the equation, so to speak.
First, PyrO, your fix worked perfectly, I went through and got every skill all setup and for new character, it's no longer a problem. However for our current players, we still have yet to see a way to implement that.
Hence the quoting of you, Milva. In your earlier post, you showed how to change different skill caps via global commands. Could you think of a way I could implement the code PyrO showed into a [global command so I can just fix everyones skill caps? Thinking if not I might just see about adding it into PlayerMobile.cs with some tweaks.
Or
Not to sound like Noob #1 here but how would you structure the command?
Would it be [global set Skills[SkillName.Alchemy].Cap 150 where playermobile
