Right, so the "events.txt" file is the file which tells your scenarios to load your "my_events.txt" into the game script. When this happens at the beginning of your game (when the scenario is loaded) these will be added to future saves in the "history" section of the save file for that game. This is the record of what "*.txt" files should be included in the save game.
However, if your saved game was started before you made these changes to your "event.txt" file, and added "my_events.txt" then the save will not have a record that this text file is relevant to the game. This is why you should search your save in the "history" section to see if it is there.
If it is not in the save, then you have two options:
One:
Add the new events to the HOI2.txt file as I suggested above.
Warning: (as you know) you will get a double entry error on load of a new scenario if you start a new game, because the game will find the same events in both "HOI2.txt" file and in your "my_events.txt" file. However, it should work with the old saves which were started before you created "my_events.txt".
Two:
Edit the save.
You can edit the save to tell it to include "my_events.txt" as a place to add scripts to the game when you load the save. You can include it by making a new entry in the save game file. To do this search "History" in the save game file. Then search "events". This will take you to a section of the save that looks something like this:
Code:
event = "db\events\AI_Other.txt" event = "db\events\AI_ROM.txt" event = "db\events\AI_HUN.txt" event = "db\events\AI_TUR.txt" event = "db\events\AI_SWE.txt" event = "db\events\AI_YUG.txt" event =

Aall you need to do now is add an entry in this list:
event = "db\events\my_events.txt"
