Extract text from Level and script files (WWD)
To convert WWD Levels to another format, you need IBM SPSS Statistics or other Game software.
To convert other file formats to the "Level Data & Scripts" file type, you need software like IBM SPSS Statistics or a similar tool.
The .WWD file format primarily functions as either a Claw Game Level file developed by Monolith Productions (used in games like Captain Claw and Gruntz), or as an SPSS WWB Script File used by IBM SPSS Statistics to automate analytical routines. It was also historically used as a Wizard file in legacy Microsoft Works.
These formats present severe compatibility challenges. They are heavily proprietary, closed-source, and deeply integrated into their parent applications. Game level .WWD files contain complex binary spatial data, sprite coordinates, and engine-specific game logic, rendering them useless outside the native game engine or dedicated community level editors. Conversely, SPSS script files contain specialized statistical automation routines that cannot be natively executed or rendered by web browsers. Because of these strict environmental requirements, users often face a complete roadblock when trying to share or open these files without a costly $50/month SPSS subscription or a vintage 1997 game engine.
Standard online converters will fail to process .WWD files because they attempt to blindly convert proprietary binary data or scripts into incompatible visual formats like PDF or JPG. Converting a game level to a flat image destroys its entire purpose. Because this file format is difficult to open or convert, often only the original software can properly read or export the data.
Despite these limitations, convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible. Just drag and drop your file to identify the format, view it, and extract raw text or assets when possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your WWD file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted WWP, QKT and BDB files.
If you want to convert WWD file to TMP, TEMP, CACHE, LOG, BAK, OLD, NEW, PART, DOWNLOAD, CRDOWNLOAD, LOCK or PID, you can use IBM SPSS Statistics or similar software from the "Game Level & Scripting" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DEVICE, CACHE, SOCK, SYMLINK, PID, MOUNT, FIFO, LOG, PIPE, TMP, JUNCTION or TEMP files to WWD, try IBM SPSS Statistics or another comparable tool in the "Game Level & Scripting" 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 WWD converter.
