A user-friendly tool to extract, preview, modify, and restore Texture2D images within SPT's .assets and .bundle files.

    • Option to remove alpha channel when saving PNGs.
  • Replace Texture: Easily replace existing textures with your custom images (supports various formats like PNG, JPG, TGA, etc.).
    • Automatic resizing to fit the original texture dimensions.
    • Handles transparency correctly.
  • Restore Original: Revert textures back to their state from the last saved backup.

⚠️ Important Notes ⚠️

False Positive Virus Detection:
This application is built using Python (with PyInstaller), which may trigger false positive detections from antivirus software.
There is no malicious code or virus intentionally included. However, if you're concerned, feel free to avoid using the tool.

SPT Use Only:
This tool is designed exclusively for use with SPT (Single Player Tarkov).
❌ Do NOT use this on live Escape from Tarkov files.
Modifying live game files can lead to corrupted installs and will likely result in a BattlEye ban.
You have been warned.

Backups:
Always back up your original game files before making any major modifications, even though this tool includes a built-in backup system.

.assets/.resS File Handling:
When editing .assets files, ensure the corresponding .resS files are in the same directory.
Otherwise, texture data may not load or save correctly.

🛑 Mod Submission Guidelines Reminder 🛑

According to the SPT File Submission Guidelines:

  • You must not upload bundles that replace original EFT or SPT files.
  • File overwriting and other destructive edits are forbidden.
  • All changes must be applied at runtime using the mod loader.

This tool is a standalone asset editing utility, not a mod.
While it enables creation of custom bundles, users are fully responsible for how they use or share those files.
If you plan to submit any content to the SPT Hub, make sure it follows the official guidelines.

  • Can I modify optic reticles too?

    • Hmm… When I made this program, it was designed to easily extract and replace static Texture2D assets like poster item images or meshes. I'm not too familiar with how reticles work, but if they’re dynamic images or use a different format, they likely aren’t supported.

    • Ye, I tried but doesn't work.

  • Awesome tool! You've really done something for the community with this one. Can't wait to see what comes from it.

    Now I'm going to be looking at ever texture in the game like "hummm I could replace you "

    Happy 1

    • That’s exactly the kind of response I was hoping for.

      Thank you for taking interest in my program, and have fun SPT!

  • Thank you so much for making this tool! I was heavily inspired by your Korean SPT logo mod and used it as framework to make custom SPT themes. Now with this tool it will be even easier! Great work as usual.

    • The SPT Korean Tarkov Logo Changer mod was one of the first mods I created when I started developing for SPT, so it's quite rough and basic. It provides a backup file but works by overwriting the original files.


      For version 3.11, I’m planning to improve this so that it no longer overwrites original files. While there’s no issue with using the mod as it is, if you plan to modify it and share it on the hub, please be aware that the current method may violate the File Submission Guidelines. I recommend adjusting the implementation before sharing.


      Have fun SPT!

  • This is huge, guys bugcatrainbow animeproudclap animedance2

    Happy 1

  • Would this work on past versions of the game?

    • I don't have time and I don't have the previous version to check, but it's probably possible.

  • is it possible to like retexture some base game weapons like their colours with this mod?

    • Yes, it's possible. You can use this program to extract the weapon image you want to edit, modify it using an image editing program (e.g., Photoshop), and then apply it back.

    • if its possible where i can find the base gun assets/bundles in? where are they located at

    • You can find the weapons you want to modify in the following path:

      SPT Folder\EscapeFromTarkov_Data\StreamingAssets\Windows\assets\content\weapons

      Weapon parts are also scattered across various subfolders within the content directory. You'll need to explore a bit and find them yourself.

      Have fun SPT!

  • A brief notice, just to clarify for anyone who may intend to create replacement bundles and upload them as mods:


    As per the File Submission Guidelines, bundles that are edited and are intended to replace the original game assets are not allowed to be uploaded as a mod. Loading the bundles via a server-side mod is, of course, completely fine - replacing original ones are not.


    Under section for "Inappropriate Content":


    Files may not replace existing EFT or SPT data. File overwriting or other forms of destructive edits are forbidden. All files must edit values at launch using the mod loader.

    • Thanks for the clarification. My program is a standalone tool designed to help with custom assets, bundle creation, and it includes safeguards to prevent modifying the live game files. I’ll make sure to remind users to follow the guidelines when using it.
