Playing as Italy, I conquered half of Russia, but when Germany signed bitter peace, everything I had taken got transfered back to Soviet :p

I've been trying to mod these provinces back to me, as that is just silly.

What is it supposed to say in the province info in my savegame? I'm guessing I should do something with 'controller' ?

And how do I save the file as a EUG-file so I can use it?

Thanks for any advise

You could apply fix to the bitter peace event that allows also others than Germany to keep their conquests. But that will only help in future games.

For save file modding, open the .eug save file with simple text editing program like notepad. Search Italian country section (like search for Mussolini), then go to the section

Code:
    ownedprovinces = { 66 67 74 75 76 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 304 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 315 374 375 376 473 482 510 } 
    controlledprovinces = { 66 67 74 75 76 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 304 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 315 374 375 376 473 482 510 } 
    nationalprovinces = { 66 67 74 75 76 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 296 297 298 299 300 301 302 304 308 309 310 311 312 313 314 315 374 375 376 473 482 510 71 }

That example is from German province control section. Once you find the Italian one, you must add the provinces you want to both the controlled and owned list. Then you have to remove them from USSR lists.

Thanks, found out it was easier to just play a month over with the improved event

But if I was to mod my savegames in the future, how do I save it as an EUG file?

This is just a plain text file with an EUG extension.
Open it in notepad make your changes (always is a good idea to make a backup first) and press <Ctrl>+<S>. Your changes are saved in the file.
Other way is to save it with TXT and after that rename it to EUG.
