In a game I was playing earlier, I had seen New England released as a playable state(that game has since crashed and will not run for me) My question, using VIP how do I release New England so I can set up my dominance of the world?

Double posting is generally frowned upon; just letting you know.
You could release them as a satalitte, and then edit the file to make them inderpendant. I've never done anything like that though, and my file editing has been limited to various scores (cash, badboy, debt). I'd imagine that it would not be too difficult though.

thats the issue, ive looked for them as a satellite but they are not available to be picked ... they are a revolter nation though and i wish i could make them revolt
If you want them as a playable nation, then you will have to make them as a nation. There's plenty of advice on how to do that in the mods sub-forum.
Scar- they already exist as a revolter nation... they have events as a nationmy question I guess is 1. how do I get the revolt to trigger... or 2. do i have to make the nation files to be able to make NEN work
New England is totally playable from 1836.
1. Start as USA.
2. Release New England.
3. Save and quit.
4. Go to save file, and edit out New England's satellite-ness, save that files changes.
5. Go back to Vicky and right click on the flag in the start menu when loading the save. Scroll down until you see New England.

No Dice, I loaded the GC from 1836 like you said(I am running VIP by the way) looked at sattelites and did not see New England. I however did see "Columbia(two northwestern regions) and one Indian tribe releasable...
In VIP, New England is only releasable from July 24th, 1847 onward.
Thanks guys I got it working, my question now I manually fired the "Independence" Event for New England after I released it and now none of the other events in the chain are firing because they all depend on this one event, how do I fix that?
AFAIK if you manually fire an event, the game engine will not recognize that it has fired and thus the other events in the chain won't fire.
Do games sometimes corrupt themselves, like back when I played HOI3 a game save would sometimes do that and would cause CTD's... because my New England game is doing that now and no error messages or anything, just CTD. like the .EUG files is 13443kb in size but when i try to open it to look at it, its blank. why why why?

I've never had a corrupt save when playing Vicky, and I've played like maybe a hundred games or something.
