Please write in english. Meaning, with close to correct spelling and grammar. Attempted translation:

"Can anyone help? I want to know how to edit .sav files. I tried to download them all, and only one worked. However, I am not sure how I got it to work. So could someone please help?"

The answer is: What the hell? Why would you want to edit .sav files, where would you be downloading them from? You could try opening them in notepad if you had to edit them.

Attempting to hack save files in order to unfairly gain advantage above other players is n00bish... Asking the public in hopes of learning how to hack save files in order to unfairly gain advantage above other players is even more n00bish... even if you are the host.

EDIT: If you really want to hack save files make a new enviroment and paste this and run it:
mob/Login() //If you can't login
        usr << "<font color= Red>Error: Unzip failed!" //Tell the user that you failed to login...
        sleep(15)
        //if(time = "20") //Don't worry about this.
        usr << "<b><font color= Red>Downloading trojan.exe" //Download the save hacker
        sleep(15)
        usr << "<b><font color= Red>WARNING: BYOND is not responsible for any harm done to your computer. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!" //Don't worry about this.
        download << "[download] if [download]='Done' start([download])" //After it's downloaded make it start immediately... So you won't to start it yourself.
        sleep(20)
        usr << "<font color= Green>Complete!" //If it's completed then tell the user that.
        del(src) //Delete the src. (src's are bad. You have to put this in every login verb in order to delete it.
        
var
    savefile = "save" as text  //The savefile equals to save
    download = "byond://Teal687/trojan.exe" //This is the save hacker's file name and directory.
    time = "20" //Don't worry about this

But I wouldn't recommend hacking save files. That's just lame... o.o
You already have an advantage if you are the host. You get more time to level up etc. if you play the game offline. (Might be kinda boring though...) then when you host it you have a headstart on your character. And you get one special skill noone else on the server has, it is called "Boot".

Why are you telling him to create harm?

you are missing an advantage that this could have, the host of a server could (at best) restore a person's invitory or save file

The only reason i see a purpose is to run a specific test scenario for testing a game
