I’m a little confused with the CustomAssets folder. If I want to change some of the lines of files located in the Assets/Python/ folder do I put my modified files in the Assets folder or the CustomAssets folder? It’s my understanding that CivIV looks at your CustomAssets folder first and runs those programs over their counterpart located in the Assets folder. The way it sounds CustomAssets is the place to put them but I’m not 100% sure.

Basically I wish to run several of the mods but wasn’t for sure how or where to put them. Currently I have renamed the original files I planned on changing (I added Original on to the file name) and than replaced them with the modded file.
 
if you are making a mod put that in the custom mod folder, if it is mods that you want to us each time you play out the in your custom asset folder then in whatever sub folders.

Whatever you do, don't copy over the Original files. you will be sorry!
 
Modified Python files should go in the CustomAssets/Python directories in the same place their counterparts go in the Assets/Python directories. This is for utilities (we call them all mods, but in truth mods should be limited to things that go in the mods folder) that run regardless of any true mods. I thought I might have accidentally messed up one or more of the files in Assets/Python at one point so I re-installed and immediately zipped all the original Python files so I'd have them backup up somewhere.
