# WinBSPC

Windows BSP Converter ("**WinBSPC**") is a utility used to recreate .map files for [Goldsource](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Goldsource) [BSP](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/BSP) files. Results vary depending on the complexity of a given map.

To create an output file, WinBSPC converts the map into a single solid brush and carves out the geometry it finds in the BSP. The end result is a moderately acceptable brushwork, comparable to other decompilers such as [BSP2MAP](https://noskill.gitbook.io/titanfall2/intro/duction/tools/source/bsp/bsp2map), with a comparison available below.
