SimCity 2000 was developed by Maxis. The SC2000 file extension identifies a tileset file associated with the game's original MS-DOS release.
A tileset file stores graphical tile data that SimCity 2000 uses when displaying the city and its objects. It is a game resource rather than a saved city or a general-purpose image file.
The format belongs to the legacy MS-DOS version of the game. Its contents are intended to be read by SimCity 2000.
Open a .sc2000 file by placing it in the appropriate SimCity 2000 game directory and running the MS-DOS version of SimCity 2000. The game reads the file as a tileset resource; it is not normally opened as a standalone image.
On modern systems, the MS-DOS game may require an MS-DOS emulator such as DOSBox.
A .sc2000 file is a game resource and has no standard image conversion path. SimCity 2000 does not generally provide an export function for converting its tileset files to another format.
Specialized reverse-engineering or extraction tools may be required to recover individual graphics.
