Log File

Every time the C4 Engine runs, it creates a log file in HTML format named C4Log.html. The file is placed in the directory designated by the operating system for per-user local application support files. The following table lists these locations for each operating system supported by the engine.

Operating System	Log File Location
Windows 7 or Vista	<username>\AppData\Local\C4 Engine\
Windows XP	C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\C4 Engine\
Mac OS X	<username>/Library/Application Support/C4 Engine/
Linux	~/.config/C4-Engine/

Here, <username> should be replaced with the login name of the current user.

Under Windows operating systems, the AppData or Local Settings directory is not visible unless you show hidden files and folders (in Folders Options under the View tab).

Under Mac OS X Lion, the Library folder is hidden by default. You can reach it by holding in the Option key and clicking on the Go menu in the Finder.

Configuration Files

When the user changes the game settings, the configuration files variables.cfg and input.cfg are saved to the directory designated by the operating system for per-user roaming application support files. The following table lists these locations for each operating system supported by the engine.

Operating System	Config File Location
Windows 7 or Vista	<username>\AppData\Roaming\C4 Engine\
Windows XP	C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\C4 Engine\
Mac OS X	<username>/Library/Application Support/C4 Engine/
