World Definition Language is the scripting language associated with 3D GameStudio, the game-development environment from Conitec. A .wdl file contains the source code for a game's scripts and can be read or edited as text.
WDL is the default scripting format used in 3D GameStudio. The files form part of a wider 3D GameStudio project and are processed by the software when the project is developed or run. Most 3DGS games are now programmed in C Script instead, so WDL is mainly associated with older or legacy projects.
3D GameStudio and its WDL scripting workflow are available on Microsoft Windows.
Open the .wdl file in 3D GameStudio to use it as a script in a game project. Because it is a plain-text source file, it can also be viewed or edited with a text editor, although a text editor will not compile or run the script.
There is no standard file conversion for .wdl files. To use the script in a project based on C-Script, the WDL source generally has to be rewritten and adapted manually rather than converted automatically.
