Extract text from Game maps (UNC)
To convert UNC maps to another format, you need Drakensang Online or other Database software.
To convert other file formats to the "Game Database File" file type, you need software like Drakensang Online or a similar tool.
A .UNC file typically functions as a game map database file for the MMORPG Drakensang Online. These files are built on standard SQLite architecture to store terrain, object, and spatial data. Alternatively, .UNC files are used by GDS Instruments within their GDSLAB software to store unconfined compression test data for geotechnical soil testing.
Opening these files requires specific software. The Drakensang variant can be inspected using standard database tools like DB Browser for SQLite, while the soil testing variant requires the proprietary GDSLAB environment.
Users often need to convert these files to extract readable data. The main disadvantage of the .UNC format is its rigid, highly specialized structure. Game database files are useless outside the game engine without an SQL client, and GDSLAB files are locked into a closed ecosystem. Standard online converters fail because they cannot parse the proprietary schemas or custom table configurations natively.
The best target formats for the SQLite-based .UNC files are CSV for tabular data or SQL for database migration. Note that exporting raw data will strip out the 3D map context. Because this file format is difficult to open or convert, often only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, just drag and drop your file into convert.guru to identify the format, view it, and convert it when possible. If our analysis detects a supported underlying SQLite or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your UNC file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted DB4, RSK, OTC and URL files.
If you want to convert UNC file to URL, you can use Drakensang Online or similar software from the "Database Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert files to UNC, try Drakensang Online or another comparable tool in the "Database Storage" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our UNC converter.
