# Configuration

The configuration file can be found in `<game_directory>/red4ext/config.ini`.

{% hint style="info" %}
If there is no configuration file present then the file is automatically generated, with the default values, when the game is started.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Even if the configuration file has `ini` extension, in fact, it is a `TOML` file See [toml.io](https://toml.io/) for more information.
{% endhint %}
