Windows BSP Converter ("WinBSPC") is a utility used to recreate map files for Goldsource 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, with a comparison available below.
