GAE/INI

GAE, like all versions of Glest, uses an INI file to control its settings.

Location of the INI
Since the user data folder is very variable, the INI can be located in a variety of locations. By default, locations include:

The location can be changed using the command line argument -configdir "path". So if you wanted to make the configuration directory (which will hold the INI, logs, etc) C:\GAE then you could run the game as glestadv -configdir C:\GAE. The configdir argument also works with relative paths, so -configdir ./ would make the configuration directory the same directory as the executable is in.
