For 1C : savegame editor?

[cryogen]

Hi, I'm playing this game on demon crusher, really awesome game, but it's almost impossible not to get mad while u try to beat zimmerman after that scorpion for 10-15 times.
Obviously it's not possible to use the cheats(and that's a shame because i should be able to decide if I want to cheat or not in the highest difficulty)
Now, is it possible to have a savegame editor so we can easily change the difficulty setting and save after the scorpion?
I know there will be no savegame editor but DAMN, how can't u put a simple checkpoint after the scorpion....
