Mods

I have added several Mods to my game none of them work.
1st My game has no Gfx file folder (I added one no help)
2nd It would appear that the retail CD is not the same as the download version.

What am I doing wrong???

Sorry I can't be of much help.
Maybe you should try asking in the GC Mods forum. I 'm pretty sure that HawaiiFive-O will be able to help you. He has even made a program that allow you to mod the game yourself quite simply.

Just on a side note: have you downloaded the bonus pack & latest patches? The bonus pack particularly added many features & random events. Maybe that's why you're missing a folder (just a guess :) -- I dont mod a lot therefore my ignorance in those matters)

Good luck

:)

Let me take a stab at it.

The \GFX folder should be located off the Gal Civ installation directory. On my system the path is:
C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Galactic Civilizations\GFX\

The actual mod files need to be placed into the \Data folder, on my system that path is:
C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Galactic Civilizations\Data\

I am unsure what you mean by "the retail CD is not the same as the download version". Could you please elaborate?

The program does not look for a Gfx Folder or File extensions of PFX it defaults to Mfx folder with all file extensions of MFX

I'm sorry, I have no idea what is going on with your installation.

Hopefully someone else can help you. Good luck!
