How do you change the folder where games are to be saved? The game by default saves everything on drive C, which i find rather stupid as that drive, on a properly set up computer, should only include the operating system. Even though i installed the game on drive E, it still saves games on drive C. And there isn't even a place in the game options that lets you change the save folder.
The only way i could find to change this was in the CivilizationIV.ini file. It has something like this :
However, entering another value doesn't seem to have any effect.
Keep in mind that i need to save files on another drive, not just a subfolder of the normal folder used. Do i need to use a format like /../../../GoingBackUp/SaveFolder, and if so, how do i specify a new drive?
The game really should have been delivered in a way that you don't need to type code in a file just to save your games somewhere else...

FileName = 0
