I know its a stupid question. Could some one tell me how to edit a sav file. i try to edit it but there are no file to open with!

sav file = Dtroy.sav <--- how do i open it ? is there any software that i should install?

It looks like a BYOND savefile. The reference and the DM guide, especially, have entire sections dedicated to savefiles.
Why do you have "Lummox JR" in your topic name? If you were trying to get his attention and wanted him to look at it then I should tell you there are plenty of other capable people here who can help.

There is no need to target just one person. If you want that, use the pager.

As for your problem, you need to make a new savefile object that is linked to a safe file.
var/savefile/S = new("Dtroys.sav")

For more information, look up all the stuff on savefiles in the help file.
Just open it in notepad.

Last I knew, you could not do that. You have to convert the savefile into a text file in a Byond program.

Also, I assumed he meant he wanted to open it in a program for reading from and writing to in a game.

of course he knows what every one talking about. his response for the posts are clear and respectful. but i didn't get my question answered.

:( is there any programme in byond to open sav file? Dtroy.sav <--- open it in file directory
In response to Dtroys
You need to write a short BYOND program to do it. Look up savefiles, but if you're still stuck (which it appears you are) look up ImportText() and ExportText().
