RDA explorer[]
The game's data is packaged into a number of .RDA archives. You can find these in your installation folder. For example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\anno 2070\maindata\Data0.rda
Mrboese has created an RDA explorer, that allows to you view, extract and modify the contents of these archives. It was created for Anno 1404, but also works on Anno 2070's archives.
