The mwps file extension is associated with Need for Speed: Most Wanted, a car racing video game for Microsoft Windows and various video game consoles. The game was developed by Criterion Games and published by Electronic Arts.
The mwps file contains car attributes that Need for Speed: Most Wanted uses as part of its game data. It is a proprietary data file rather than a document intended for general-purpose applications.
The file belongs to the Windows edition of Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2012 and is also related to the game's console versions. The format is intended for use by the game and is not normally edited directly by players.
An mwps file is used internally by Need for Speed: Most Wanted and cannot normally be opened as a readable document. The Windows game reads the file from its installed data when required.
There is no standard standalone program for opening or editing this file. Do not modify or move it in the game installation unless a compatible game-modification tool specifically supports it.
An mwps file is proprietary game data, so it has no practical general-purpose conversion format. Need for Speed: Most Wanted uses the file in its original form.
If a compatible modification tool or game mod supports this specific file format, it may allow the car attributes to be changed. Renaming the file or converting it to another common file type will not make it usable by the game.
