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 level editor.

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 due to the Face-to-Brush method it decompiles maps.
