Excellent stuff - I've never been able to grasp savefile editing myself but glad to see you can tweak it so precisley.
Do you mean the Revolutions podcasts? If so I've throroughly enjoyed them myself.
Yeah it's pretty good although so far he's a bit harsh on Marat.
I've only ever edited save files to edit ruler names and things, so I'm with Jape on this one. Great to see you've got things as you wish, though!
And while we're on the subject of podcasts, I very much enjoyed the Rex Factor series during the summer.
I've been tag switching since EU3 came out so I already had the first part down, the rest is just getting the hang of EU's language and editing the provincial histories. I've basically destroyed my game for anything other than a LoF run though I'm probably fine with that since I've only played LoF.
Anyhoo, here's the savefile!:
