This page provides links to programs that are useful and help with modding Civilization IV.
Essential Programs for nearly all aspects of Modding
- A text editor, such as Notepad++, emacs, vim, or even WordPad and Notpad (which come with Windows)
- Vim and Emacs are good for hardcore programming - Notepad++ is good for just about anything.
- A diff/merge tool, such as WinMerge or Beyond Compare
- Vim, Emacs, and some other text editors contain merge/diff tools in themselves.
Graphics Programs
Map/Scenario (WorldBuilder-like) Programs
XML Programs
- There are some pre-packaged XML editing tools for civ4, but most modders prefer the directness of a text editor like Notepad++

- Visual Studio 2008 Express
