Add a New Civilization Mod to CIV 4 on Steam?

[telavivguy80]

Hello! Longtime player, first time poster.

I just bought and downloaded CIV IV on Steam. I have a downloaded Israel civilization that I had found, but I have no idea how to add it to the game. (I'm a bit of a tech newbie.)

Could someone be so kind to give me a list of clear, easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions? Thanks so much from another CIV enthusiast!

Here is a tutorial to guide you through the different files involved. It teaches you how to add a civ, you already have the civ, but the tutorial is helpful anyway.

You can merge each file and place them in a mod of your own (Program files/.../Beyond the Sword/Mods) or keep it modular. In that case you should allow the modules in the ini file of your mod:

; Modular XML Loading
ModularLoading = 1

I don't think that it's much different in Steam, just the path where the game is located is different.

If you have questions, you already have a thread of your own...
