What is a WHM file?

WHM files mostly belong to Crazybob's WebSite Hints Maker. WHM files are used by specialized programs in two different contexts.
For one type, they are Crazybob's WebSite Hints Maker files. These files store hints and configuration data that help the application generate website elements and shortcuts.
For the other type, they are used as Warhammer model files, a format employed by Relic Entertainment to archive 3D model data for game assets.
Important: Each variant uses a different, proprietary format.

If you have a Crazybob file, open it using Crazybob's WebSite Hints Maker software.

If you have a Warhammer model file, use a game archive viewer or mod tool designed for Relic Entertainment's games.

WHM file format:

The file format determines how the data is stored in the file. The file format can be determined based on the file extension and the signature (the first few characters of a file). File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our examination of the WHM files comes to the following conclusion:
