How to Merge 2+ Map Progress in Profiles for ETS2 and ATS
In this short guide I will explain you how to merge several profiles map discovery progress on example of merging vanilla 100% and Roextended 89% profiles on ETS2 1.53. You can try this scheme on 1.54 and in both ETS2 and ATS. Below you can find link to text version, tools and also ready strings used in this video (updated to 1.54).
Guide:
1. Reason
Merge discovered items in two profiles let you have updated visited roads in the end even if you exploring maps on different profiles. Also when the new version of the game is being released you can again discover as much as possible and then merge with your old combined profile.
2. Preparations and tools
Download and install software we plan to use – TS SE Tool, Notepad++, make sure that you have mods in mod folder if you plan to merge mod’s profile, make sure that Steam cloud disable for all profiles which will be changed, check config file if you can decrypt game files (g_save_format 2) and can use console (uset g_developer 1, uset g_console 1) and so on.
3. Backup
Backup all the profiles to the separate drive before doing any manipulations.
4. Profiles job
Enter to the profiles you wish to merge and save game to locate desired profiles by timestamp. You should carefully pick correct profiles. Decrypt profiles one by one and open game.sii in each mergeable profile and copy all discovered items to new text file (in this file we will merge them). We can merge 2 or more profiles but don’t forget that it should be from the same version of the game.
5. Merge (most important part)
When all discovered items strings pasted to the text file we have to change the order of numbers – the way as game read each string. Start from removing left part of the string (discovered_items []: ) with Notepad ++ command Find and Replace (Ctrl+C). On the Find what enter discovered_items \[\d+\]: and keep blank on Replace with (we have to remove them). Do not forget check Regular Expression in Search Mode. Replace all and you will get list of numbers. On this step you can also remove duplicates. Now we have to return discovered_items []: text with empty brackets. Alt+C and choose Text to insert and place there discovered_items []: and push ok. On the next step we have to add numbers to the brackets with correct order from 0. Select all in bracket spots (Choose first one and with Alt+Shift select last one) and again Alt+C and choose Number to insert – Initial should be 0, increased by 1, format decimal. Push ok and wait. If you have lot of string it can take a while. When all numbers added to brackets we can remove redundant spaces. Now we can copy strings and paste them to the target profile where will me merged result.
6. Results we get
We have to see discovered roads from 2 or more profiles we combined.
7. Back to play Load from profile where strings added and if you see desired result you can back to game but please bare in mind that recruitment agencies are not gonna work with this method so if you want to hire drivers you game will probably crash. To avoid it hire drivers before profiles modifications.

How to Merge Profiles Map Progress in ETS2 and ATS
The video below is kind a tutorial about profile modification on ETS2 and ATS and with another purpose – merge two existing profiles. I hope you have seen my videos about game save modification to open undiscovered routes on map. There we grab data from from one profile and put it on another one – copy strings with discovered sectors and place them to new or existing profile. It is good if you have source with all roads opened and create new profile or update your current game save with them. E.g when you want to start with opened map or get achievements on steam or lost you progress. It is not so complicated if you can use proper tools and know what to do. Watch my step by step tutorial. But the method I provided in my guides and files I’ve shared is for 100% vanilla map and moving one data to another profile entirely – on that way you can only move all or nothing. So the method doesn’t work if you want to merge two game saves with different progress – in all cases source will overweight the target. That is because in every profile we have exact order of strings and if you copy data partially profile could be crashed because of wrong order and duplicates. Long story short – yes you can merge two or more profiles in one but if you just copy data you will have to modify the string one by one and it is not a problem if you have file with ten or hundred strings but we have in our saves thousand hundreds string for vanilla profile and probably millions if add some mod maps. So here is another way. Let’s try to automate files modification and merging.
Links mentioned in video are outdated but the method works on 1.50 for both games
