Got a link you can share? How big is the file? Why are you extracting the files?

This the link? https://www.championsofregnum.com/?l=1&sec=6 622MB
I tried to download it but for some reason couldn't, no error msg given, so don't know what type of file the package is. Porteus has converters that makes packages into modules. What's the name of the download?

Ok, another approach. Change your changes= cheatcode to changes=EXIT;path_to_save.dat, reboot, install the game, make a xzm module of the files installed, put the module in your /modules folder, exit Porteus and press a key other than Enter or the space bar when shutting down, reboot.
