I think you have to turn off Steam Cloud when you hand edit a file otherwise it will reload files from the Steam Server and overwrite your edited file when you start the game.

Once you have loaded the game and checked that your edits are effective you turn Steam Cloud back on while the game is still running so that when you exit the game it writes your new settings to the Steam Server, ready for the next time you fire it up.
