I cannot do this (yet), as the title will only read from a handful of specified archives (Main game, DLC archives, patch archives), that are signed (not sure if this is a checksum or a signature yet). The desired files to be ripped are language packs.
I'll probably try going down this route of making a new zip archive for each language pack, if the file that contains the signatures and/or checksums can be modified to read other archives.

I'll probably have to do some more investigating myself, honestly I probably shouldn't have posted this question this early into my analysis of the game data.
After comparing the GOG & Steam versions, it seems unpacking may be possible as a "moddable" mode can be loaded in the steam version through an executable not found in it's GOG counterpart.
I'm confident theres a possibility my suggestion is possible, after conversing with various members in the "The Talos Principle" modding community. I do hope its possible, as unpacked, there are substantial gains to be had using the "Media Stream Compressor" and "Oggre" compressors, versus these compressors being applied to the packed archives.
Sorry if not all of this makes sense, its quite early in the morning & my English tends to fail me at these hours.
