Extracting Resources

In order to create mods, you will need to have the game's resources extracted into the various files that can be edited. Resources are divided by levels or general categories. They will be sorted into folders when extracted.

Extraction Tools:

SAMUEL Asset Extraction Tool by SamPT - Download 
Currently exports textures, .decls, and .entities files.
[Documentation]

EternalResourceExtractor by PowerBall253 - Download
CMD Syntax: EternalResourceExtractor.exe [path to .resources file] [out path] [options]
[Documentation]

Make sure you have enough disk space when extracting resources. It can be very large if you plan on extracting everything.

There are folders with "_patch_#" appended at the end and they contain overriding files for their parent folder.
The patch number does not always mean it has a high priority because DOOM Eternal often changes the priorities with each update.
