Extract text from WSC files
To convert your WSC file to another format, you need Worms Armageddon or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Game Configuration File" file type, you need software like Worms Armageddon or a similar tool.
The .WSC file extension typically refers to a Worms Scheme file, a configuration format used by the classic strategy game Worms Armageddon. These files serve as the rulebook for a match, dictating game physics, weapon availability, turn durations, and crate probabilities. While essential for competitive play and custom game modes (like 'Shopper' or 'Roper'), the format is proprietary. You cannot simply open a .WSC file in a text editor to read the settings; doing so results in garbled data. To modify these schemes without launching the game, users often need to convert them to human-readable text formats or use specialized third-party scheme editors.
A significant source of confusion is the Windows Script Component, which also shares the .WSC extension. Developed by Microsoft, these are XML-based files used to create COM components using scripting languages like VBScript or JScript. If you attempt to open a Worms scheme as a script, Windows will throw execution errors. Conversely, if you have a Script Component you wish to inspect safely without executing code, the best workflow is to convert or rename the file to XML or TXT. Additionally, retro gaming enthusiasts may encounter .WSC files as ROM images for the Bandai WonderSwan Color handheld console, which require emulation software to run.
