Windows cannot open some files if it does not recognize the filename extension. When you try to open a file with an extension Windows does not know, you will see a message asking you to select an app to open the file. This happens with .wldx files.
.WLDX files contain overhead maps for platform games. The maps show paths to different levels stored in .LVLX and .LVL files. .WLDX files can also include tiles, scenery, music boxes, and level entrances.
To open a .wldx file, you need the latest version of the software you normally use for that file type. Old versions may not support the format. You should also scan the file with antivirus software before opening to check for viruses.
Online tools allow you to view .wldx file contents and metadata without needing the right software installed. Websites also provide information about .wldx files and recommendations for software to open them.
The .wldx format stores game world maps as text. The text has markers separating parameters like tile size, viewport size, paths, tiles, scenery, and more. Keeping the information organized into sections makes it easier for the game engine to parse.
