What is a TPAC file?

These files serve a precise role in delivering game content and supporting real-time asset loading.

Internal Structure: The file holds packaged game assets in a format optimized for the engine.

Usage: It is used exclusively by the Bannerlord engine and is not meant for general media viewing.

Modding Consideration: Specialized tools are needed to extract or modify these assets, as standard software cannot process them.
