 Welcome! This is my hub for video game asset extraction related information and guides. I will be going through everything one step at a time to explain how everything works.
+Please note that these tutorials presume a basic, general understanding of how to work with a computer. It demands that you are comfortable with the Windows file system, understand file paths and are capable of performing basic PC procedures like installing and running applications, editing standard file formats like ''.txt'', download files or programs from Github and can perform basic operations in Command Prompt (I prefer cmd over ps). For example, I will not be teaching how to open the Command Prompt or how to navigate between folders with it. However, this tutorial does //not// expect you to be advanced enough to actually build Github projects, for example.
