Hi. Sorry to be a pain.

But my Civ 4 folder isnt where it should be?!

Am i right to presume it should be in the Program Files part, in a folder called 'Firaxis' or 'Sid Meieirs Civilization 4'. To be blunt, its not. Nor is it in any other folder that i can find, on the Programs or otherwise.

I have found one folder, called "Sid Meiers Civilization 4" which is in my documents, under the folder "My Games" which contains the folders:
  • CustomAssets
  • Logs
  • MODS
  • Patch
  • PublicMaps
  • Replays
  • Saves
  • Screenshots
  • TransferredMaps
Also are the CivilizationIV configuration settings, and the civilizationIV.ini.bak

However i was attempting to look at the xml files, and found that the folders all contain no information, except the replays contains one of the replays of a game i had completed, and in the Saves folder is my saved game. Other than that, nothing.

However my game works fine (except running a little slow, due to the age of my computer im guessing), so im lead to presume the files must be somewhere. Oh, and i dont think they are there but im not able to view them because, well, i dont think they are.

Any help would be much appreciated.

right-click on your Civ4 launching icon, and choose Properties -- the resulting popup will tell you the path to the .exe file.
