BSP Convert

C# tools and library for converting BSP files between engine versions without decompilation. This approach has the following advantages:

• Lightmaps can be preserved across engine versions (lighting information is lost when decompiling Quake BSP's)
• Maps can be ported in seconds with one command rather than many hours of manual effort
