Can't get the game in windowed option
I have been trying to get my game started in a windowed option since I have a widescreen monitor the graphic and size is just ridiculous! Problem is I tried using the youtube and followed the instruction on how to force it intow indows by using a shortcut command like: -window or
-windowed. unfortunatly they did not work and I am getting really anoyed. I really hope someone can help or else I just thrown away my money.

extra info:
Monitor: LG 29UM67-P has splitscreen software but doesn't work on steam
Windows 10 PRO

In the CD version you can do that by going into the 'caesar4.ini' file and find the line 'full screen mode 1' and change 1 to 0.
I do not know if this is possible on the Steam version but it is worth a trial.

You can download 'Notepad++' for free, best text editor around.

I agree with your assessment of Notepad++, but it's not really necessary just to edit an INI file!

You ought to be abe to right-click the file, select the "Open with..." option, and if the standard Notepad or Wordpad isn't on the list of options then, select "Browse..." and look for Notepad or Wordpad. You should at least have "C:\windows\notepad" on every Windows machine since '95.

The only real issue is to locate where Steam happens to hide the installation files. it won't be in the same place as where the original game put them. There is a way to deduce where they were put, but I don't immediately know what that is.

The file is located here "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Caesar 4\C4\CaesarIV.ini"

Changing the .ini file does work. Go to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Caesar 4\C4 and in the search bar type *.ini and it will bring up all the .ini files in the folder. You can open it and edit from there.
