BSP2MAP is a decompiler for GoldSrc maps written by Skyler 'Zipster' York. It converts the .bsp files into .map files, which can then be loaded into Hammer Editor.[Clarify]
Limitations
- Unfortunately, Goldsource maps do not store enough information for brushwork, so the geometry has to be recreated using the polygons.
- BSP2MAP hollows out all brush-based entities with a thickness of one unit as a preventive measure to stealing/copying maps.
