: Always extract the .zip file using your operating system's file manager.
: Convert that buffer into an Image , then into an ImageTexture . ШЄШЩ…ЩЉЩ„ textures and images Godot zip
: Use read_file("path/to/image.png") to get a PackedByteArray .
: Create a ZIPReader instance and open your file. : If you are shipping DLC, consider using ProjectSettings
: Godot will automatically detect new images (PNG, JPG, BMP) and import them as Texture2D resources. 2. Loading ZIP Archives at Runtime (for Mods/DLC)
